Booked by 2 families in Ellsworth, WI

I’d describe my personality as detail oriented, hard working, and someone who enjoys having fun! I like working with kids because I grew up with four younger sisters that I helped take care of and enjoy hanging out with and taking care of kids. I have been around kids of all ages my entire life. In my spare time, I like to hang out with friends, hang out with and walk my dog, read, and try cooking new recipes! I also work as a DSP and have 9 months of experience working with individuals with mental and learning disabilities. One thing you should know about me is that I grew up helping take care of me sisters and was homeschooled. I am currently a sophomore in college. I am also very detail oriented and am willing to learn!

Beydan Woodbury
$22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Beydan and I am currently a senior at the University of Minnesota I’ve been babysitting since I was 16 and have experience caring for kids of all different ages! As the oldest in my family, I’ve always been the one looking after the little ones, so being around kids has always felt super natural to me. I also spent two years working with children at autism centers, which gave me even more experience working with different personalities and needs. I enjoy spending time with kids, whether that’s playing games, doing activities, helping with homework, or just hanging out and keeping them entertained. I’m patient, easygoing, dependable, and would love to be someone your family can feel comfortable and happy having around!

Safia Cottage Grove
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi - My name is Safia and I’m currently a junior at the University of St. Thomas, studying finance. I love kids and have experience working with them my whole life — I have two younger siblings who I’ve babysat since I was young. I also worked at an autism center for 3 years, where I gained hands-on experience caring for and supporting children with diverse needs. I’m also comfortable with household chores and genuinely enjoy cleaning and keeping things organized. I have been a caretaker for my grandma, so I’m well experienced with senior care too. I am allergic to and scared of dogs, but happy to work with families with cats.

Fadumo Cottage Grove
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Fadumo I am excited to start babysitting toddlers and teens are my specialty and bring my strong background in childcare to families in need of reliable support. I love driving and walking to parks and having long car drives. I also enjoy braiding hair and styling, it’s so peaceful to just bond over hair. I have a fear of cats but I have an even bigger fears of dogs. Growing up in a large family with many siblings, I gained extensive hands-on experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to teens. I consistently took on responsibilities such as supervising daily routines, helping with homework, and creating engaging activities that promote both learning and fun. This experience has not only strengthened my ability to manage multiple children at once, but also taught me the importance of patience, adaptability, and clear communication. I am confident that my nurturing personality, dependability, and proven childcare experience make me an excellent fit for families seeking a trustworthy caregiver.
