Booked by 1 family in Ettrick, VA
Hi, I’m Christina, I have experience babysitting kids of different ages and I’m comfortable handling things like meals, homework, and bedtime routines. I try to keep kids engaged without just putting them in front of a screen, and I’m good at staying calm and patient if things get hectic. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and take safety seriously. I’m also happy to help out with small tasks around the house if needed.
Johanna $16 per hour for 1 child
Hello! My name is Johanna and I'm currently in school for Nursing. I am offering pet care and childcare. I love to babysit and I've been babysitting since I was 17! I've babysat toddlers and preschoolers, I'm also really open to any requirements the parents have for me when babysitting. I'm not allergic to any cats or dogs, so I'm very open with working with them too!
