Bradley Oxford
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Bradley, and I am 18 years old and a freshman at the University of Mississippi and a proud member of Chi Omega. I offer reliable childcare, pet care, and household support for families in the Oxford area. I am a lifeguard and CPR-certified sitter, and safety is always my top priority. I truly love children and animals and enjoy creating a fun, engaging environment with activities like crafts, games, outdoor play, and homework help. I have experience caring for children of various ages, and I’ve also worked at a kids’ sports camp for four years and a summer camp for one summer, which taught me how to manage groups of kids and keep activities exciting and safe. I have a reliable vehicle and am happy to help with school pick-ups/drop-offs, activities, and errands. I can also assist with light housekeeping to help keep things running smoothly at home. I’m dependable, organized, and genuinely passionate about working with kids. I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide excellent care!
