Hello! I am transplant to Utah and enjoyed babysitting as a hobby in DC before my move! I am very much so a people person I spend lots of time networking and performing on stage in front of hundreds of people. When it comes to kids they tend to love me because I am high energy, funny, creative, but also very responsible. While making sure kids have fun I also make sure they are in a safe environment and doing things that promote good behavior. For instance, playing games such as Simon Says, Follow the Leader, Obstacle Course, Reading. All those games are fun but they also learn problem solving. I also have plenty of experience babysitting and working with children. Since the age of 10 I started a mothers helper business with the moms in my neighborhood. As I got older I began to babysit children on my own between the ages of 1 to 10. Along with being a babysitter I also served as a camp counselor for four years teaching acting,singing and dancing to five and six year olds. So by the end of the night your kids may want to put a show on for you once I leave. I truly love spending time with children as they are the hope for a better society. Hopefully you see my application and you can tell that I am serious and ready for the job! Hope to hear from you soon. PLEASE NO DIRTY HOUSES! Please do not request a booking if time is under 3 hours and hourly compensation is less than 20 dollars. If their is not ample unrestricted or free parking. Parking compensation is requested. Best,

Hi, my name is Caleigh and I'm currently a student at the University of Utah. I am offering childcare and pet care. I come from a small town in Colorado where I have been babysitting since I was 11. I got my Red Cross certificate in 2017 and began babysitting right after. I babysat my sister before my parents trusted her alone, and then I moved to babysitting for teachers and my mom's friends (ages 4-10). I have three cousins in my family (ages 5, 4, and 2) and have been babysitting them since they were very little. I have babysat children of all ages, including one family with a 3 year old and 5 month old (dealt with a diaper blowout). I also have a puppy at home for whom I have cared for and I have experience in house sitting with two dogs for a week straight. I also have experience in cat sitting while a family spent 10 days in Florida, I took care of their two cats. I would describe myself as a creative person, with an imagination to fulfill toddlers dreams and games. I am funny and comforting, and can calm children down who may feel distressed being with someone new. I am very friendly and am very comfortable speaking with adults to figure out what the child/pet needs and how to continue their routine. I am very kind and patient and will sit through whatever I need to in order for a child/pet to feel most comfortable with me and/or the absence of their parents. I can drive and have a truck with a full size back seat for car seats. I am artistic, with lots of experience in drawing and writing and love to explore the creative side of children. I ski and love camping and rafting and outdoor adventures. I adore children and love spending time with them, learning about their interests and wildest dreams.

I grew up taking care of my little brother who is on the autism spectrum. I’ve lived with and bred both dogs and cats, so I know my way around taking care of them.
