Grace $15 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Grace and I’m currently in college, about to go into my fourth year. I am offering child care and occasional pet care services. I love babysitting, I’ve been doing it since about 15-16 years old. I’ve babysat ranges of newborn-12 years old, and some not the best well behaved children. I have also babysat up to 5 children at one time. I am CPR certified and I have reliable transportation. I have a cat so would be more than comfortable pet sitting cats. I have also pet sat 3 dogs at once on multiple occasions.
