"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."

Mikhail $15 per hour for 1 child
Hi, im Mike, your new babysitter! During the week, I work with kids, but I'm ready to bring that magic to your front doorstep. If you're looking for a weekend getaway, a night out, or even a last minute call-in, i'm your guy. Even when it seems like I might not have the time, my schedule is made to prioritize your home, your children, your pets, and most importantly: YOU. I usually work with kids aged 5-12, but I've never been known to shy away from working with new ages. So as long as you'd tell me everything I should know, I can get the job done. No kids, no problem! If you need a pet sitter, house sitter, or just a clean house then im still the right call to make. I'm experienced with pets, and know my way around a broom. So what are you waiting for? You need time for you, and I'm ready to give you peace of mind.
