Kayla $26 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a caring, patient, and dependable babysitter who genuinely enjoys working with children. I have the most experience caring for children ages 9 months to 2 years old, and I especially enjoy this age because I love being part of their learning, development, and everyday routines. In my previous childcare experience, I enjoyed creating fun and engaging activities such as reading books, going to the park, visiting libraries and museums, and finding age-appropriate ways for children to explore and learn. I’m also comfortable helping with meals, naps, playtime, and keeping a consistent routine. I would love the opportunity to expand my experience with newborns and younger babies. While I have less experience with newborns, I’m very attentive to detail, eager to learn, and would take the time to understand your baby’s individual routine, needs, and preferences. I want parents to feel comfortable and confident knowing their child is in caring hands. I’m currently attending college and would love to find a family I can build a trusting and long-term relationship with!
