Annie Sioux Falls
$16 per hour for 1 child

Hi all! My name is Annie, and I’m currently a sophomore at the University of Sioux Falls. I’m offering childcare and household help for families in the area! I’ve been babysitting for as long as I can remember. Growing up in a small town, my summers were always spent helping families with their little ones. And having twin little brothers I've always played a little bit of the mother role haha! I have experience caring for all ages, from infants to older kids. I’m very active and love keeping children engaged, whether that’s playing outside, doing crafts, or helping with homework. I also make sure any tasks or chores you need done are completed with care and responsibility. I’m a big dog lover and happy to help with pets, too — just a heads up that I’m allergic to cats. I can’t wait to meet your family and help out however I can!
