"Amina came and helped us out when our babysitter canceled last minute. She was great with our kids. Even our 11 month old son who has stranger anxiety warmed up to her."

Mackenzie $18 per hour for 1 child
Hi- my name is Mackenzie and I’m looking for a family to care for! I have always loved babies ever since I was a little kid and knew I wanted to care for them someday. I have five siblings and two with disabilities. I have learned so much from my family and watching my siblings. I have plenty of years of experience between my family and babysitting on the side. I love all pets and have a cat of my own! I use to be a cleaner so I don’t mind doing any household chores that may be needed. I always tend to clean up regardless if asked of me or not. Thank you!

Booked by 1 family in Montrose, MN
I have always been said to have a gift for caring for babies even when I was a baby myself. I have always wanted to help others which is why I am headed for the medical field. I am currently pursuing a BSN in biology with a minor in psychology, child development is something I have always been amused by and I find it an honor to be a part of a child’s development. Growing up the legal working age was 16 so I was babysitting for friends and family from ages 10-15. I still offer my services to this day. I have been a tutor to older kids, and a caregiver to their younger siblings while keeping the house tidy. At most I have cared for 3 siblings all at different developmental stages (ages 1-9). I have cared for newborns as well. I am a direct care professional for adults with special needs half time, I was also a PCA for elderly memory challenged clients.
Harmony $20 per hour for 1 child
Hi, I’m Harmony, I’m 23years old, I am a student, I love working in the community and working with families and children! I have lots of experience working with children in different fields, nursery, summer school, church nursery, youth group. I look forward to working with a family soon :)
Lisa $15 per hour for 1 child
My name is Lisa and I'm approaching my senior year at UMD. I study biochemistry and potentially want to work in the chemistry and/or neuroscience field. When I was in high school, I worked at Color Me Mine and I had to run many children's birthday parties there. I'd like more experience in babysitting and working with kids because it would open my perspective about working with different age groups related to my future career. I've had cats and dogs throughout my life so I'm comfortable with pets. I've gotten into baking and I know how to make basic meals. I also have a basic life support (BLS) certification and planning to get my advanced life support (ALS) certification soon. If you need someone to step in during a night out or to help out during a busy schedule, let me know!
Quinn $18 per hour for 1 child
Hi, I’m Quinn! I’m currently studying to become a nurse and have over 6 years of experience babysitting for families in my neighborhood. I love staying active and grew up playing hockey and lacrosse—so I’m always up for outdoor play, games, or anything that keeps kids moving and having fun! I’m reliable, patient, and love creating a positive, engaging environment for kids of all ages. Whether it’s crafts, story time, or helping with homework, I’m happy to jump in wherever I’m needed. I look forward to meeting your family!
