I’m currently a college student studying business and communications. In high school I completed a 2 year Boces program for Early Childhood Development. I have 4 sibling. I often babysit my 2 year old niece. I am fun, outgoing and responsible. My hours are flexible based around my college classes.

I'm a dedicated and energetic babysitter with 5 years of experience caring for children of all ages. I have a military background, which has instilled in me discipline, reliability, and strong organizational skills. I love working with kids, creating fun and engaging activities, and making sure they feel safe and happy. I have CPR and First Aid training (in progress), and I'm comfortable driving, assisting with homework, and helping around the house with light housekeeping. I'm available for part-time and/or full time positions and bring enthusiasm, patience, and a positive attitude to every family I work with. Your children's safety, growth, and happiness are my top priorities!

Frances came through for me on short notice to babysit my son before school started. And she dropped him off safely as well. Thank you!

Hi! I have been a babysitter/nanny on the side for years! I come from a large family and plenty of experience, so there’s nothing I haven’t seen! I love playing outside or creating new activities for your kids to enjoy. I am comfortable with pets, doing house chores and anything your child(ren) need always finding ways for them to have fun! I am CPR & First Aid certified with experience with children of all ages!

Alyssa is wonderful! She is communicative, kind, experienced, prompt, and flexible. She was great with our 10 month old daughter and I will definitely book her again :-)
