Jordyn $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a caring, dependable babysitter with 9+ years of experience caring for children of all ages. I’ve nannied for families for multiple summers and another family for three years, and I have a degree in Child Development. I’m currently in graduate school for Speech-Language Pathology and have over a year of experience working at a developmental therapy center for children. I’m CPR certified, organized, and great with time management. I love creating fun, age-appropriate activities and making sure kids feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’m also happy to help with child-related household tasks like meals, cleanup, and laundry. I truly love working with children and would love to help your family!

Lindsay $30 per hour for 1 child

I’m a mom, former early childhood educator, and experienced nanny who especially loves caring for babies. I have a Master’s in Early Childhood Education along with a background in Montessori education, functional nutrition, and many years of working with children and families. I’m calm, nurturing, dependable, and very comfortable with the rhythms of caring for little ones—feeding, bottles, diapering, soothing, naps, developmental play, and keeping their environment peaceful and predictable. Most recently, I cared for an 18-month-old 35 hours a week and managed his full daytime routine, including meals, naps, play, music, outdoor time, and early learning. I’m particularly interested in newborn and infant care, including overnight positions where I can support both baby and exhausted parents through those early months. I’m also an animal lover, comfortable with pets, and happy to help with the everyday tasks directly related to baby’s care. I’m currently looking for a consistent position with a family who wants a mature, experienced caregiver they can truly trust with their little one.

Hi - My name is Vannessa and I am a retired wife, mother, grandmother and First Lady. I am currently offering household cleaning services. I have been a caretaker for my own family members in the past. I can cook, clean and help with organizing spaces. I prefer not to work with families with pets.
