Abbie $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Abbie! I am from Arizona, but currently living in Utah, and have been for 5 years now. I absolutely love it here! I’m getting married in May! I am going back to school fall of 2025 at UVU, majoring in Early Education, to ultimately become a teacher. I love kids, animals, arts and crafts, movies, music, wellness, fashion, shopping, learning, and my family! I am outgoing, kind, reliable, and fun. You can count on me! Right now I am only available Saturdays and Sundays. I have 4+ years experience in babysitting/nannying. Ages ranging from newborn-15 years old, I am also the oldest sibling of 4, so I had a lot of responsibility throughout my years at home. I also have babysat cousins and friends since I was young. I babysat many families in my neighborhood in Arizona. I also was an at-home nanny for 2 families there; one with a young special needs child. I would tend to childcare duties like playing, nap-time, help with homework, some potty training, and more. I also did housekeeping like tidying, cleaning, cooking, and organizing the play areas and other main areas that the parents allowed access to. I did any pet-care too, including dogs, cats, and fish. I made sure to create and maintain a positive, playful, nurturing, and safe environment for all children of all ages, with all abilities and personalities. Preferably minimum to no screen time; mostly hands-on activities for the children. I also stayed over-night and some weekends as needed for the 2 families I nannied, when the parents were gone for work trips, vacation, etc. My way of childcare is to encourage children to learn and grow with confidence building activities, arts & crafts, outdoor activities, parks, libraries, and more. Any discipline needed/done was discussed with the parents, but I have a gentle approach to discipline. For example, if the child is having a tantrum or getting upset with another sibling or situation, I will sit with the child to be at their level instead of above, listen and try to understand how they are feeling, and help get through the moment with love and patience; never any yelling or aggression. Sometimes all a child needs is to be heard. Any disrespect or aggression from the child is met with authoritative discipline and love. I built and maintained a positive relationships with the children and parents through excellent communication, respect and love as human beings, not just because it’s my job!

Tsoi $17 per hour for 1 child

Hi this is Michelle. I am originally from Hong Kong but have been living in the states for 7 years now. I graduated from BYU in 2025 and am currently working as a family advocate for Head Start. In my role, I'm regularly in classrooms assisting teachers, engaging with children, helping manage routines and transitions, and supporting kids with a variety of needs. Working closely with young children is a big part of my everyday life, and I genuinely enjoy it. I'm a dependable and caring caregiver with experience working with both children and pets. I have experience supporting children through volunteer and internship roles, including working with preschool-aged children in an autism preschool, and with youth and families at the Children Justice Center. I'm patient, energetic, and enjoy creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment where kids feel comfortable and valued. I can help with playtime, homework, routines, meals, transportation, and household tasks. I also have pet-sitting experience through TrustedHousesitters, where I've earned 4 five-star reviews caring for cats in their homes. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and care. Families often describe me as responsible, communicative, organized, and easy to trust. Whether I'm caring for children or pets, my goal is to help everyone feel safe, happy, and well cared for.

Tabitha $14 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Tabitha ! I am a student at Utah State University studying biology. I am offering childcare, pet care, and house care! I love spending time with kids! I have been babysitting for 5 years now, I have a lot of experience with infants- 9 year olds. During those 5 years I have done tons of crafts, dance parties, fun days at the park, field trips, and helped with homework. I can cook and bake mostly anything and I am very good working with food allergies and restrictions. I am also comfortable with bottles and formula. I have also watched countless pets including cats, dogs, fish, guinea pigs, birds, and reptiles. I can do short-term house sitting during the summer and also weekends year round. I spent most of my summer watching my nephews to get experience and I have been a sitter for a few families for 4 years straight. When I finish school I hope to be a pediatrician and getting to spend any time with kids and animals is always the highlight of my week!

Booked by 4 families in American Fork, UT

Prior elementary and current French dual immersion middle school teacher. Warm, trusted, loving and FUN! I’m a mother of 4 adults and grandma to 2 boys and a new granddaughter. Currently in a way-too-quiet Empty Nest. Due to varied skills and interests, I am offering reliable, caring, and skilled services for:    •   Childcare – engaging and safe care from a passionate teacher who can help prevent learning loss in summer months (I LOVE creating readers!)    •   Pet care – reliable pet sitting (bred 3 litters of English Labradors)    •   Home and garden care – house sitting, weekend errands    •   Outdoor adventures – Experienced boat driver and advanced snow skier (taught skiing to beginners and intermediates) Whether you need a last minute date night, weekend or summer sitter, or someone to keep your pets and home safe, I offer maturity, professionalism, and excellent references.

Keri was fantastic! We booked her for two nights watching 6 kiddos, ranging from 4-12, while we were in town for a family wedding. Keri came in and seamlessly integrated herself with the kids and took over all situations (some nervous kids, some sleepy kids, some playful kids). With Keri being both a mom and a teacher we felt very at ease with her taking over such a big job. If we are ever in SLC again we would not hesitate to use her again. Thanks Keri!

Booked by 2 families in American Fork, UT

Hi! I’m Iisha.
 I’ve lived in Utah for most of my life, and I’m now raising my family here with my husband and our two school-aged children. I have a deep love for kids and truly enjoy spending quality time with them. I’m passionate about creating fun, engaging, and nurturing experiences for children. Some of my favorite activities include reading, arts and crafts, cooking, outdoor play, and outings to places like the library, zoo, or aquarium. I'm also very comfortable with daily routines like diaper changes, naps, feedings, and light household tasks. I’m happy to help with pets (both cats and dogs) and light errands as needed. Safety is a top priority for me—I am CPR certified and always focused on creating a safe, caring environment. I would love to support a family looking for a nurturing, reliable nanny to care for and connect with their little one(s) during the week!

Highly recommend! Always shows up early but most importantly the kids love her. Great with keeping the kids engaged. Takes them on walks, makes meals, & cleans up! We never have to worry about the kids when Iisha is taking care of them!
