"Amina came and helped us out when our babysitter canceled last minute. She was great with our kids. Even our 11 month old son who has stranger anxiety warmed up to her."

Kari $15 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Kari, and I'm 23 years old with 7 years of experience caring for children ranging from 6 weeks to 11 years old. I've worked as a babysitter as well as in a childcare center, and I'm currently a nanny for three boys-ages 1, 5, and 7. The 1 yr old I nanny is going to start daycare in February so I'm looking for another family to nanny for while my other two nanny kiddos are in school. Ideally looking for a family needing care M-Th 9:30am-3 p.m. and Fridays 9:30am-1:15 p.m. I can help with meal prep, nap time, light house keeping, and taking the kids to activities such as library story time or the park!
Ciadan $20 per hour for 1 child
Hi- My name is Ciadan. I am 18 years old with a drivers license and a vehicle. I will be attending the University of Utah next fall. I have taken many CPR courses and am comfortable in emergency situations. I have been babysitting since I was 11 and have watched children ranging from infants to 12 year olds. I have also taken care of pets such as cats, dogs, birds, and hamsters. I am creative, hard working, flexible, and I love kids.
Alexis $20 per hour for 1 child
I was a nanny for a family of 3 beautiful baby girls. Olivia (3-6), Gabby (1-3), and Izzy (4 months-2) so I have plenty of experience with children. I also babysat for another family that has 3 children - two girls, one boy, same ages as the previous family. The third family I provide date night services for has two wonderful children - 9 year old boy and 5 year old baby girl. The fourth family I occasionally babysat for have 3 beautiful children - 5 year old girl, 2 year old baby boy, and 1 year old baby boy. Growing up I always wanted to watch my younger siblings and cousins and surround myself with babies. I have a giant heart so when I babysit I end up loving the children like they are my own and care about them tremendously. I would love the opportunity to meet your babies!
