Sasha $21 per hour for 1 child
Hey! I’m Sasha. I’m a mom of three girls and a full-time nurse, so caring for little ones is second nature to me. I’m CPR certified and trained to stay calm, patient, and attentive — especially with babies and toddlers. My goal anytime I’m babysitting is simple: make sure your babies feel safe, comforted, and cared for while you enjoy your night out. I know how important it is to trust the person you’re leaving your children with, and I don’t take that lightly. Feel free to reach out with any questions!
Lesley $17 per hour for 1 child
Hi! 😄My name is Lesley, and I love helping people and caring for others whether that means kids, pets, or helping around the house. I’m dependable, patient, and easy to get along with, and I always try to make sure everyone feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I work as a medical assistant, so I’m CPR certified and used to staying calm in busy situations. I’m also bilingual in English and Spanish! I’m happy to help with childcare, pet care, light housekeeping, errands, meal prep, or whatever helps make your day a little easier. I treat every family, child, and pet like they’re my own and would love the opportunity to help yours!💙
