Max $13 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I have two pet cockatiels named Ray and Lola. They’re the light of my life. I’ve always loved animals, senior citizens, and kids! I was a soccer coach for children for a while and loved it so much; it made me want to continue working with kids. I’ve also helped babysit my little cousins growing up. With the elderly, I have experience helping out family and family friends who need assistance in their day-to-day lives, and I would also love to continue that. I even took care of an elderly lady in her 90s before she unfortunately passed away. Animals are one of my biggest passions as well! I’ve always loved babysitting my family members' kids/pets and spending time with them.

Kehinde $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Kehinde, and I’m a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) graduate currently preparing for my NCLEX exam. While studying, I’m looking for a babysitting opportunity where I can provide safe, loving, and dependable care for your little ones. I have over 5 years of experience working as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), caring for people of all ages in both hospital and long-term care settings. My healthcare background has taught me patience, compassion, responsibility, and how to stay calm in any situation. I’m CPR certified, attentive to children’s needs, and happy to help with meals, homework, bedtime routines, light housekeeping, and creating a fun, safe environment. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your child, and I will treat your family with the same kindness, respect, and care that I would want for my own. I look forward to supporting your family and giving you peace of mind while you’re away.

Enne $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Enne, I’m currently an ABA Behavioral Technician for LEARN Behavioral at Toal Spectrum. I’ve been at this job since October and absolutely love working with children and making a difference in their lives. I’m also a student at Milwaukee Area Technical College studying to get my Human Services associates degree. I’m currently looking to get into babysitting/caregiving as a side job to make extra money for school! My experience in childcare mostly comes from my current job working with children age aged between 1-3. Growing up I had younger siblings who are 5+ years younger than me who I helped take care of as-well. If animal care is needed I can do that as long as properly instructed. I have cats myself and used to have a dog growing up. I have no experience in senior care but I’m willing to learn. I also take cleanliness very seriously and I’m sure to prioritize that in any space I work in. I’m very flexible and am willing to put in any work necessary for whatever your care needs are.
