Hi! I'm Ori! I'm caring, patient, and dependable babysitter with hands-on experience caring for children of all ages. I've spent plenty of time helping care for children ranging from infant, to toddler, to preteens. I'm fun, responsible, and love creating a safe, happy environment where kids feel comfortable and parents have peace of mind!
Hi! I’m Vanessa, a mom and experienced healthcare professional who genuinely enjoys spending time with children and helping families feel confident that their little ones are in caring, capable hands. As a mom myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your child. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and safety-conscious, while still making sure kids have fun and feel comfortable with me. Professionally, I’m a registered nurse with extensive healthcare experience. My background has taught me to stay calm under pressure, communicate clearly, pay close attention to a child’s needs, and take safety seriously. I’m especially comfortable caring for babies and young children and understand the routines that come with them—from bottles, meals, diapers, naps, and bedtime to playtime and keeping little ones engaged. A Little More About Me • Mom with firsthand infant and child-care experience • Registered nurse and board-certified nurse practitioner • Patient, nurturing, responsible, and dependable • Comfortable with infants and young children • Attentive to parents’ routines and preferences • Comfortable with feeding, diapering, naps, bedtime, and age-appropriate play • Calm and confident in unexpected situations • Non-smoker I know that inviting someone into your home to care for your child is a big decision. My goal is to make things easier for parents while providing the same kind of attentive, thoughtful care I would want for my own family. I’d love to learn more about your family and what you’re looking for in a caregiver!
Hi! My name is Emmalee, and I am currently working as a medication technician while continuing my education in healthcare. I am offering child care, senior care, and household assistance. I have a strong passion for caring for others and hope to work closely with children in the future. While most of my experience has been in healthcare, I have developed valuable skills such as patience, responsibility, and the ability to stay calm in stressful situations. I am CPR certified and confident in handling emergencies if they arise. I am happy to help with daily routines such as meal prep, light housekeeping, activities, and keeping children engaged and safe. I enjoy creating a positive and comfortable environment for the families I work with.

My certifications include, Early childhood education, CPR, first aid, water safety, SIDS, and many more! I am offering child care for children ages 3 months- 6 years.

Hello and welcome to my profile! I am a responsible, caring and dependable professional who enjoys helping families make life a little easier. With 20 years experience caring for children, pets, and aging family members I've learned; Children keep me young and grounded, pets keep me active and seniors keep me appreciative of life's journey. Communication and transparency are important to me and I take pride in creating a safe, comfortable environment where everyone feels well cared for and at ease. I am currently open to occasional roles 1-2 days per week and for new/first time families, I am open to interviews ahead of booking, prefer to at least have a phone call ahead of first visit and only accept payments via car and then after time, happy to transition to other forms. Looking forward to meeting you and your family!
“Alexis was prompt in reaching out we connected before the booking. She was a good communicator came on time and did the duties as assigned. Very pleasant and punctual”
