"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."

Jaina $18 per hour for 1 child
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.
Makenzie $18 per hour for 1 child
Hello, my name is Makenzie! I’m extremely outgoing, kind, observant, athletic, and I have great energy. I’ve been BLS/CPR certified for all ages (infants to seniors) since I was 16! I’m going to college right now for emergency medicine and firefighting. I have such a passion for helping others. Before moving to Utah I worked two times a week teaching kiddos & adults how to swim (all ages!) I’ve been working with kids for 1-2 years now and it’s been such a blessing. I’ve been told I’m excellent with children, and I’d love to help other families in anyway they need with their kids, animals, houses, etc!
Skye $16 per hour for 1 child
Hello! My name is Skye. I am originally from Heber City Utah but going to school at the University of Utah in the pre medicine program. I am EMT certified and have worked as a first responder for almost 2 years. I love working with children and provide the safest and most intuitive care. I have been babysitting for almost 7 years and have experience with all ages although my experience is mostly with infants.
Bri $25 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Briana (usually go by Bri) and I’m from Anchorage, Alaska. Growing up, I spent a lot of time helping take care of my younger cousins, which sparked my love for working with children. In high school, I gained hands-on experience working with kids and students with disabilities, which taught me patience, creativity, and how to adapt to different needs. I also participated in the Biomedical Career Academy and have been involved in healthcare through my pre-nursing studies, including 48 hours of clinical experience at an assisted living home. I hold a current CNA license and am CPR and First Aid certified, so safety is always my top priority. Outside of school and work, I played soccer from age 3 to 18, developing teamwork and leadership skills. I’ve also house-sat for several local families. I’m excited to provide reliable, caring, and engaging childcare for your family!
Ella $20 per hour for 1 child
Hi- I’ve been babysitting since I was 14 and have several years of experience caring for infants, toddlers, and teens. I truly love working with kids and creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment where they feel comfortable being themselves. I’m patient, reliable, and understanding of all kinds of family dynamics. I’m also happy to help with light cleaning, cooking, errands, and pet care if needed. I bring a positive, calm energy into every home and love building genuine connections with the families I work with.
