Yelis $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Yelis. I’m currently in Dental Hygiene school and I’m looking for a part-time babysitting position. I have experience caring for a newborn from the time she was born until she was a little over a year old, due to the family relocating. I’ve also had experience working with toddlers. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and love keeping them engaged with fun activities like arts and crafts, playing, and age-appropriate activities. I am also CPR certified. I’m reliable, responsible, patient, and caring. I’m happy to help with light household chores, errands, and anything else that makes life a little easier for the family!

Faatimah $26 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Faatimah - former teacher/babysitter, current small business owner. I have worked with children for over a decade, and spent the last few years working primarily with one family (two kids, one of whom I helped raise from infancy). I am very comfortable with infants, and spent the last few months doing night nanny duties for a NICU premie after he came home from the hospital. I am very comfortable handling multiple children at once. Open to part-time mornings/ occasional sittings only.

Hello! My name is Reem, and I am an experienced childcare provider with a background in nursing and education. I come from a big family and have always been around children, including helping care for my siblings’ children. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Nursing and have experience working as a School Nurse in Morocco and as a Teaching Assistant in the UK, supporting children of different ages. I am patient, responsible, and passionate about creating a safe, caring, and positive environment where children feel comfortable and supported. I can help with playtime, educational activities, reading, homework support, meal preparation, daily routines, and providing attentive care.

I speak three languages: English, French, and Arabic. I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide reliable, caring childcare.
