Hi there! My name is Belén and I’m originally from Buenos Aires, Argentina. I’m a fashion designer graduate and I been living here for three year already. I love kids and I’m currently taking care of two girls of 5 and 8. I have experience with kids from 3 months old to 10 years old. I like playing with them, reading books, or do arts and craft. I even teached how to crochet to my kids. I consider myself as an artsy and crafty person and I enjoy sharing that with kids. I’m fluent in english but my native lenguage is spanish. Cheers, Belén (:

“Belen is the best. She cares for our two girls (5,3) and they adore her. She plays fun, creative games with the girls. We could not function without her. Belen is the greatest!!”

Hello! I’m Amina, and I have several years of babysitting experience with kids of all ages. As a caregiver, I would describe myself as nurturing, patient, and kind. Your child’s emotional and physical wellbeing are important to me! You can expect me to be fully engaged with your children. A few activities I might do with them (depending on their age and interests) are reading stories, doing crafts projects, playing board games, making friendship bracelets, or playing with outdoor chalk. My priority is to keep your children happy, healthy, and safe. If you choose to book with me, you can count on me to be dependable and attentive. Thanks for reading and please reach out if you have any questions!

“Amina was a fantastic sitter for my 2 boys. She was friendly, caring, compassionate and playful. Highly recommend!”

Hello, my name is Madison and I absolutely love children and getting to be apart of their lives, whether it's taking care of them, looking after them, building personal connections, or all three! I am a very outgoing, loving, bubbly person that is so excited to find the perfect family to care for! Even though I have only been a caretaker on this app for a short period of time, I have been working with children for almost 7 years and have lots of references that I would be more than happy to give to you if you are considering me as a candidate to take care of your children!
