Finn $16 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Finn and I'm currently a junior at Duke University. I am offering childcare and household services. I have a passion for childcare and have been supervising toddlers and kids since I was 15 years old in summer camp settings, as well as babysitting roles. My responsibilities have included general supervision, sports, crafts, and basic tutoring. I also can clean, run errands, and cook basic meals. I am happy to work with families with pets!

$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 5 families in Butner, NC

Hi parents! My name is Megan, and I’ve been in childcare since 2005. I studied Early Childhood Education, Library Science, and completed Newborn Care Specialist training. Over the last couple decades, I have worked with ages 0-12, and some adults. Most of my experience lies in early childhood, as I typically begin nannying during infancy and prepare them for pre-school. I'm CPR/AED/1st Aid certified, have experience with food allergies, seizures, behavioral disorders, chronic disorders, and speech delays. I am comfortable administering medication and driving with children in my care. I practice gentle parenting, sleep training, a variety of language techniques, and strive to work together with family/parents/children as a true part of the team. Just a bit about me-- I love yoga, gardening, and hanging with my partner and our four critters (so I’m very pet friendly!). I'm a lover of books, music, and arts & crafts. I love taking those things outside for a little sunshine, and implementing them into childcare. Feel free to reach out if you'd like to connect!

Jennifer $24 per hour for 1 child

I have 15+ years of childcare experience with kids of all ages, from babies through teenagers, and I’m also a former foster parent. I’m CPR certified, dependable, patient, and comfortable jumping into whatever routine works best for your family. I love keeping kids engaged through games, crafts, outdoor activities, reading, or just hanging out and having fun together. I’m comfortable around all kinds of animals and am happy to help with pets while I’m there. Most importantly, I want kids to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for—and parents to feel confident knowing their kids are in good hands. Hobbies include music, hiking, crafts, hanging with my dog, reading, and trying to pay off some recent medical bills ;)

DeLauren $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Yenni, a reliable, responsible, and caring support professional who genuinely enjoys helping families and making day-to-day life easier. I have experience supporting children, adults, and seniors, and I’m comfortable adapting to different ages, personalities, routines, and needs. Beyond childcare and companionship, I’m happy to help with errands, transportation, household tasks, appointments, grocery runs, and other everyday responsibilities. I’m dependable, organized, attentive to detail, and take pride in being someone families can trust to follow through. Whether you need occasional childcare, senior support, an extra set of hands, or reliable help managing a busy day, I’m happy to help!
