$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Natalie. I’ve been babysitting and nannying since I was 10 years old, and I’m comfortable caring for kids of all ages. I’m a registered dietitian with a master’s degree in nutrition, and I currently work from home as an Account Manager for Vibrant Wellness Labs. I’m very hands-on and always engaged with the kids, whether that’s playing outside, doing crafts, helping with homework, or keeping them active. I keep a clean, tidy house and am happy to help with household tasks. I’m CPR certified, love playing soccer, walking my dog, and cooking healthy meals.

Cynthia Columbus
$23 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Cynthia! I have a background in psychology/ education and a natural ability to connect with both children and animals. I’m warm, calm, and attentive—and I truly enjoy providing a safe, caring environment. Child Care I care for one child at a time so I can give them my full attention. I enjoy creative and educational play, and I’m experienced with young children, especially through my time with my grandbaby. I’m happy to help with basic routines, light meals, and keeping your child engaged in fun, age-appropriate ways. Pet Care I also offer pet sitting for one dog at a time. My deep experience comes from caring for my own dog for 13 wonderful years. I’m now a grand-dog mom too! I’m happy to walk, feed, and spend quality time with your pet, and I’m comfortable with dogs that shed. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, calm, and kind, I’d love to support your family—whether human or furry.

Hi, I'm Mackenzie. I graduated from UAHS in 2014. I have experience in Child Development from school. I also have experience being a babysitter for young children for more than 10 years. I mostly babysit for under eights, but I'm not against over eight. I have personal experience of working with Autistic or other disabled children. I can also take care of pets, I've had and taken care of both cats and dogs, but I can also help with other animals if needed. I also have experience in helping physically disabled adults and the elderly. I'm currently living with my grandparents to help out. I enjoy making child friendly crafts and activities that help/teach variety of skills, from reading, writing, math, science & nature, cooking, motor skills, and speech. I enjoy small group/one-on-one tutoring. I can also help with household cleaning. The only thing that I am unable to do is drive.
