Kyla $15 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Kyla, and I’m a nursing student with a strong passion for working with children. I’ve been caring for children for about 8 years, with experience ranging from newborns through preteens and teens. I’ve cared for younger children in my family as well as babysat for families, so I’m comfortable with different ages, personalities, routines, and needs. I currently have increased availability and am especially open to daytime, evening, and weekend bookings over the next few weeks. I’m currently studying nursing and hope to eventually work in pediatrics, so caring for children is something I’m genuinely passionate about anf enjoy. I’m patient, responsible, attentive, and always try to make kids feel comfortable and included while keeping them safe. I’m happy to help with things like meals, bedtime routines, playtime, homework, and keeping children’s normal routines while parents are away. I’m also comfortable caring for infants and helping with multiple children. While childcare is my primary experience, I’m also open to pet sitting, dog walking, senior companionship, and other caregiving needs. I’m currently looking for occasional babysitting, date nights, weekend care, pet care, senior companionship, and one-time or short-term opportunities. I’d love to meet you and learn about your family, pets, or loved one and what type of care would be most helpful!
