nalini $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Nalini. I'm a dependable and nurturing caregiver with over 6 years of hands-on childcare experience. I'm 22 years old and began babysitting at age 15. Caring for children, especially infants and toddlers, has always come naturally to me. Over the years, I've cared for children in both personal and professional settings. I've had the privilege of caring for twin baby girls from infancy through age 5. I also regularly care for my godson and niece, both born in 2021, and have been helping care for them since birth, they're now 4 years old. Most recently, I've been caring for my newest niece who was born in January 2025, so I'm very familiar with the needs of young infants. I specialize in providing calm, attentive care for one to two children at a time, where I can focus on their individual routines, development, and emotional needs. I am CPR certified, and your child's safety and well-being are always my top priority. In addition to my caregiving experience, I'm a licensed real estate professional, which has helped me become highly organized, reliable, and clear in communication. I have my own transportation and flexible availability. Whether you're looking for a reliable babysitter or an experienced infant caregiver, I'd love to support your family with care, consistency, and compassion!

Dorothy $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'd be happy to be your occasional date-night sitter! I've been babysitting for 14 yrs, and I'm very friendly, fun, trustworthy, and dependable. Prior to babysitting I was a flight attendant for 28 yrs, and each yr I had 2 days of emergency requalification, including CPR/First Aid. I enjoy playing with kids indoors and out, helping them to learn, and reading to them. I've been the 1st-time non-family sitter for most of the families I've worked for, and children feel comfortable with me really quickly. I work on call, weekday and weekend evenings from 5 pm - 2 am, 20/hr for one child and $25/hr for two children, with a 4 hr min. I take cash or check only. Short notice jobs are welcome; as long as I haven't already made plans I may be available within 3-4 hrs. I have twenty-eight 5-star reviews from two other babysitting sites, as well as a great written reference from parents whose son I took care of from 1 - 4.5 yrs-old before they moved to Europe, and I still work for them every Summer when they return to this area; I'd be happy to send you those reviews and reference. Thanks so much for reading my profile!

Charisma $15 per hour for 1 child

Hola! I enjoy helping others and love working with the littles, after all they are our future! I have my CDA (child development associate) as well as CPR First Aid, and other certifications needed to work in the professional childcare setting. I taught early childhood for 8 years before obtaining a science degree. I enjoy learning about other cultures and their languages; fun fact I know 6 languages. I have found being able to teach younger children different languages/cultures to be both beneficial and fun! Also, I have other skills I can share with your young ones such as tutoring needs or homework help, dancing, safe cooking skills modified to the age, and perhaps more. I would love to be able to support you in helping your child(ren) grow into their best selves! If you need I can help around the house with cleaning or even errands! As much as I adore animals from afar, I am pretty allergic to dander from dogs and cats when around them too long. :-( I am willing to help families with cats/dogs with one time jobs for a couple hours.
