I love working with children and have been caring for kids of all ages since I was a teenager. I’m responsible, reliable, and naturally connect with little ones. I’m looking to help families for their date nights, events, and general help while doing something I genuinely enjoy. I also care for my own dog and am happy to work with families who have pets. I offer child care, household help, and pet care.

Hi, my name is Kyra I am the oldest of five siblings and have 15 years of experience of babysitting and childcare situations and currently work at an Early Learning Center with children ages 12-22 months old. I love children and enjoy helping them learn and grow. I know American Sign Language and would love the opportunity to share that language and culture. I am a very responsible, reliable, and caring person and am also certified in first aid and CPR.

I have been working professionally with children for over 9 years and have babysat children between the ages of 1 month and 13 years. I have experience with date night sitting, and morning and after school pick up. Responsibilities include travel to and from after school activities, indoor and outdoor play time, meal preparation, homework help, bath time supervision and help, and bedtime supervision. Regarding infants and toddlers, there were additional responsibilities such as feeding and burping, diaper changing, and safely putting the infant to sleep. I also completed light household chores, such as putting away leftover toys and organizing play spaces, cooking, washing dishes, sweeping floors, and cleaning the kitchen and dining area. I have overseen children during play dates and birthday parties, and am comfortable with babysitting multiple children at once. I always recognize the importance of keeping children mentally and physically challenged. I believe that I have the awareness to teach children how to fix and learn from their mistakes in a way that they will understand while maintaining an environment that is fun and safe. Distance is no problem for me, since I have a driver’s license and a car, and I am willing to add a child car seat to travel with children. I love working with pets, and have professionally walked and cared for dogs for over 4 years and cats for over 11 years. I have cared for dogs and cats for both short term (1-2 days) and long term (7+ days) periods, and can care for your pets while babysitting if needed, as well as when you are away from home. I am available for last minute gigs and am flexible working longer hours or morning/weekend hours. Babysitting is a difficult yet rewarding line of work. It requires a unique kind of problem solving that allows me to interact with children in the way my babysitters interacted with me. I believe that I am the living example of the quote "It takes a village to raise a child". To me, there’s nothing more unifying and empowering than that-- participating in the ‘village’ of individuals to help promote the growth of a child. As I learn more about myself and follow my dreams, I am always delighted for the opportunity to push children to follow theirs.
