Christina $18 per hour for 1 child

Hello, My names Christina I’m reaching out in response to your need for a babysitter for your children. I am a retired RN. After retiring from nursing, I decided to return to my first passion, childcare. I began caring for children at the age of ten and have never stopped, I love all children. There is nothing more beautiful than the sound of a child's laughter. As a caregiver, I will provide a safe and stimulating environment for your child. In addition to being certified in CPR and first aid, I have also been educated regarding stages of child development. My lifestyle does not include smoking, vaping, or drinking alcohol. The presence of pets is fine with me, and I have my own vehicle. My undivided attention will be given to your children while I am with them; you will not find me on my cell phone. Upon request, I am willing to provide copies of a recent comprehensive background check and references. You can be confident that I will give your children the level of care and attention they need to grow and thrive. It would be my pleasure to discuss how I might be able to assist your family. You are welcome to contact me at your earliest convenience. If you would like to speak with me. Your consideration is greatly appreciated, Christina.

$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 86 families in Kenner, LA

Hello there, thank you for taking to time to look into me as a potential caregiver! A little bit about me: I am a nanny/ babysitter splitting my time between New Orleans and the Bay Area. I am certified in Pediatric First Aid and CPR. I received my diploma in massage therapy and health education from the National Holistic Institute in 2012. I'm a local musician, and enjoy dancing, skateboarding, and hiking in my free time. I started my childcare career when I was 19 years old in 2011, as an Au pair in Oxford, England. There, I lived with a with a wonderful family and cared for their daughter who was 3 years old. My responsibilities included childcare 30-40 hours a week, organizing and structuring stimulating and engaging activities, chores, errands and light housework. This family became very special to me as I lived with and worked for them. After massage school, I found my way back to caring for children with babysitting and had a client base of 30+ families in California before moving to Nola. I love them all dearly and can't believe how fast they grow! I have experience with newborns all the way to 15 years old. Nannying has given me the chance to make lifelong friendship and family bonds with so many beautiful people all these years; something that I truly treasure. I would love to learn more about you, your family and your unique needs. Looking forward to meeting you!

“Amethyst was fantastic with our daughter. We will definitely use her as a sitter again!”

Lona $16 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Lona. I'm new to New Orleans but not new to childcare. I babysitted constantly while growing up, for my neighbors, family friends, and two younger sisters. I have my own transportation with a clean driving record; I am Adult and Pediatric (Child and Baby) First Aid/CPR/AED-certified by Red Cross. More about me: I love to cook, visit museums, read, study, and get outside for activities. I have a bachelor's degree in foreign languages and can speak some Spanish and Mandarin. My favorite places to take little ones include the Children's museum, the Audubon Zoo and Aquarium, the park, playground, library, and of course, for walks around the neighborhood. One of my favorite things about spending time with kids is how they help us see everything like it's brand new. My approach with kids is to trust in their intelligence, problem-solve together by asking questions and coming up with "missions" we can embark on together, and be a source of stability, safety and routine for them. I'd love to get to know you more and see if we might be a good fit!

Maddie $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Kenner, LA

Hi! My name is Maddie! I am a senior at Tulane University, where I am studying psychology (specifically child psychology) as well as political science. I have lived in Boston my whole life, but my mom is from NOLA so I have spent a lot of time here growing up, and I loved it so much I had to come to school here! I have been officially working with kids since the summer of 2022 where I worked as a counselor at a sleep away camp for seven weeks. I have worked at that camp every summer since, and have acquired many different skills that allow me to work well with children. I have also been babysitting for neighbors and family friends since I was around 13. Since then, I have gotten my lifeguard certification which makes me CPR, AED, and first aid certified for infants, children, and adults. I am extremely patient, especially when it comes to kids with special needs or preferences. On top of this, I have been raised with pets (dogs and cats) my whole life and am very happy to take care of them too! I have my drivers license and a car with me at school, so I would be able to do pick ups and drop offs if needed.
