Logan $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Logan. I have had many years of experience babysitting children from newborn to ages 10+. I not only enjoy being around kids, but I also put a lot of effort into giving them appropriate support. My main goal is to provide a safe environment for your child (both physically and emotionally). I work full time during the day but have flexible availability over the weekend, in the morning (before 8:45am) and in the evenings (after 5:00pm). I look forward to hearing from you!

Thomas $18 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Thomas l. About me, I’m somewhat of an introvert. I keep to myself, I don’t indulge in too much social interaction (unless it’s with the right person/people that is), I’m just a homebody nowadays. Although I do enjoy outdoors from time to time. Many years ago in my youth, I have worked at a bunch of daycare settings before. I assist teachers into setting up activities for the kids, prepare nap times, keep a close watch on them while they play on playgrounds, go on field trips, and aid the kids with their daily tasks assigned by their teachers. as for pets, I have pets in the past and currently. used to have a dog, few rabbits, goldfishes, and three cats. Two whom are my grandmother’s pet from Phoenix, Arizona. She passed away two years ago. So her two male cats are in my family’s care. So taking care of house pets could be right up my alley. Also, if you need your house clean, I could be up for the task. I could bring my supplies from home or if you had some of your own, and I’ll get right to it. Overall, if anything comes up, I’ll let you know the second I do. Thank you so much for taking your time to read me.

Tiera $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello my name is Tiera and I have experience working with kids for 5+ years. My first job at 15 is where it all started when I worked the summer in the youth care program for one of the Minneapolis parks and Recreation. Following up I worked at Great wolf lodge in the water park area from 16-17 years old and even though that’s not hands on with kids I still count it because it was my responsibility to help keep it safe for them. Once I turned 18 and graduated high-school I began working for the new horizon company working with the ages as young as 6 weeks up to the age of 5yrs ,but, main group with the ages of 18 months- 3yrs. I am currently in process of getting my CDA which is an early education associates. I am licensed certified in First aid & cpr. I believe in the conscious discipline method and that’s how I am with the children in my care. I’m also skilled in the creative curriculum area so I’m comfortable enough to say I CAN help your child meet there milestones. I appreciate you for taking the time to read my intro and if you made it this far I would like to end with my personality and why i am here for you. I feel I have a bubbly goofy and open but could be quite quiet . I’m very understanding and patient and empathetic. Im also very creative so im always got an activity planned. Im here for you and your child to just be an extra hand you count on. Im here to help!
