"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."

Tabitha $14 per hour for 1 child
Hi, my name is Tabitha ! I am a student at Utah State University studying biology. I am offering childcare, pet care, and house care! I love spending time with kids! I have been babysitting for 5 years now, I have a lot of experience with infants- 9 year olds. During those 5 years I have done tons of crafts, dance parties, fun days at the park, field trips, and helped with homework. I can cook and bake mostly anything and I am very good working with food allergies and restrictions. I am also comfortable with bottles and formula. I have also watched countless pets including cats, dogs, fish, guinea pigs, birds, and reptiles. I can do short-term house sitting during the summer and also weekends year round. I spent most of my summer watching my nephews to get experience and I have been a sitter for a few families for 4 years straight. When I finish school I hope to be a pediatrician and getting to spend any time with kids and animals is always the highlight of my week!
