Madison $17 per hour for 1 child

Caring for children has been a big part of my life for years, especially babies and young children. Much of my experience comes from helping care for my two younger brothers throughout their childhoods, as well as babysitting relatives and family friends. These experiences helped me build strong skills with routines, emotional support, and everyday childcare needs. I take a patient, caring approach and focus on helping children feel safe, comfortable, and understood. I also worked as a student aide for special needs students during high school, which taught me adaptability, compassion, and how to support each child’s unique needs. I recently graduated high school and will be starting college to study Social Work. I currently work with a family caring for their twins, but I mainly look for one-time, date-night, weekend, and as-needed babysitting opportunities. I have reliable transportation through family support and rideshare services and am working toward getting my driver’s license. I’m also happy to help with homework and light child-related housekeeping. I’m dependable, communicative, and genuinely invested in the children and families I work with. Feel free to ask any questions; I’d love to talk! 💛

$20 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Leah, I’m very confident in my judgment and maturity, and I’ve always felt completely comfortable caring for children. With their curiosity and endless energy makes them such a joy to be around. I’m responsible and dependable, but also fun, upbeat, and hands-on. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, a college graduate, specializing in early childhood development, with a strong focus on children’s nutrition and age-appropriate interaction for infants, toddlers, and older children. With me, your child will have fun while learning and playing. We read books, play games, work on puzzles, blow bubbles, draw, color, and do lots of creative art activities. Every activity is tailored to the child’s age, I always check with parents to make sure everything is approved. Your child’s happiness, well-being, and safety are always my top priority. I make sure they feel safe and cared at all times. Schedule for afternoon and evening hours. I enjoy forming a strong bond with the child as well with the parents. Presently looking for one or two days a week, Monday through Thursday evening hours. Happily looking for my next family.

“Leah is fantastic! Our little took to her instantly and would ask for her to come over. Leah is reliable, caring, and creative. She was excellent at sticking to the routine we had while also coming up with fun and engaging activities for our little. She is responsive and would send updates throughout the day which we really appreciated. Highly recommended!”
