My name is Taylor! I am an artist and an enthusiastic, positive person. I have some education in early childhood education with an art degree.

Rayah $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Rayah and I just graduated from nursing school. I grew up babysitting various ages for family friends and neighbors. I am a pretty outgoing person who loves to be outside! I love creating fun, safe, and engaging activities—whether that’s playing outside, doing crafts, or helping with homework I have two dogs of my own so I am very comfortable around pets. I’m also certified in CPR/First Aid and comfortable with things like meal prep, bedtime routines, and light household tasks. Families can count on me to be responsible, dependable, and caring. Babysitting is something I truly enjoy because I love being a positive part of a child’s day. I’d be excited to meet your family and help make things a little easier for you!

Amanda $22 per hour for 1 child

With a strong foundation in service and dedication, I am a compassionate caregiver and military veteran, bringing a wealth of experience and a nurturing spirit to every role I undertake. With a Bachelor’s degree, I combine academic knowledge with practical skills honed through diverse experiences, including my time as a para-professional within the school district. In this role, I have provided support to young children and those with special needs, ensuring an inclusive and enriching environment for all. As a proud dog mom to a 14-year-old pup, I understand the importance of companionship and empathy, qualities that translate seamlessly into my caregiving approach. My professional background as a kitchen staff member at a Girl Scout camp has further developed my ability to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere, catering to the needs of children and fostering their growth through engaging activities. Additionally, my passion for gardening reflects my nurturing nature and commitment to fostering growth—both in plants and in the lives of those I care for. I am dedicated to providing high-quality care, ensuring that every individual feels valued, supported, and empowered. My unique blend of military discipline, educational experience, and a heartfelt commitment to service, I am not just a caregiver but a steadfast advocate for the well-being of those I serve.

Christina $18 per hour for 1 child

I have been working with children since I was 9 but officially started at 13, and I fell in love with it! I primarily watched and cared for my 6 younger siblings, along with many of my family and friends children. I've worked with kids of all ages and I am also experienced with working with children who have autism. I have 3 younger brothers who all have autism. Some of my favorite things to do with kids are playing board games or making fun craft projects! And on special occasions baking treats :). I love kids and I take pride in the patience and discipline I’ve learned from it. I always strive to do the best and to have a strong hardworking mindset. And I always take working with children to the heart.
