Hannah $20 per hour for 1 child
I’m a college student at George Mason University studying marketing, and I’m a responsible, caring, and dependable person who genuinely enjoys working with kids. I have babysitting experience as well as experience volunteering at a daycare. I’m comfortable caring for children of different ages, helping with homework, preparing snacks and simple meals, and keeping kids entertained with games, crafts, and outdoor activities. I’m patient, attentive, and always make safety a priority. I’m also comfortable with pets and helping with light household or child related tasks. I’m looking forward to finding families to help out!
Mikhail $15 per hour for 1 child
Hi, im Mike, your new babysitter! During the week, I work with kids, but I'm ready to bring that magic to your front doorstep. If you're looking for a weekend getaway, a night out, or even a last minute call-in, i'm your guy. Even when it seems like I might not have the time, my schedule is made to prioritize your home, your children, your pets, and most importantly: YOU. I usually work with kids aged 5-12, but I've never been known to shy away from working with new ages. So as long as you'd tell me everything I should know, I can get the job done. No kids, no problem! If you need a pet sitter, house sitter, or just a clean house then im still the right call to make. I'm experienced with pets, and know my way around a broom. So what are you waiting for? You need time for you, and I'm ready to give you peace of mind.
Shantel $20 per hour for 1 child
Hi ! I’m Shantel. I’ve supported several families as a trusted babysitter and night nanny, providing hundreds of hours of overnight infant and newborn care. You’ll find me flexible and easy-going. I genuinely care about nurturing kids and watching them grow and change as they experience the world ❤️ I’d love to help you out if I can. As an RN, nothing is too messy, complicated or overwhelming. And as a mom of 4, nothing is too unpredictable or chaotic. 🙂 Overnights are my sweet spot right now with my family’s schedule ! 9pm-7am Good luck in your search! I hope you find exactly the right fit and the peace of mind you are looking for.
