Hi there! My name is Victoria, but I prefer Toria for short. I started caregiving when I was 15 years old, which puts me at about 6 years of caregiving experience! I have a genuine passion and love for working with children. I find this "job" to be the most rewarding I have ever had. I have experience across all ages, from newborn care to adult care. I also have experience caring for children with special needs such as autism, diabetes, and other health obstacles. I value open communication with parents on their preferred routines and methods of parenting. I love to collaborate with parents to create fun, stimulating, and exciting activities and experiences for your children!! I love anything art related and in my free time enjoy crocheting, painting, and exploring outdoors. I am well-prepared to support families in various ways, including meal preparation, carpooling, light housekeeping, and travel. I would love to connect with your family and be a person you can rely on!

Hi! I pray all is well! My name is Markayla, I currently nanny part time for a sweet one year old! I am looking to either nanny or babysit for an additional family! I love kids and animals so pets are not a problem if you have them! I am 25 years old, graduate from the Univeristy of Alabama. I am currently seeking a career in veterinary medicine and hopefully will get accepted into a vet school next year! I have over 10 years of experience with kids but only 6 out of those years have been paid experience!! I currently babysit about two or three weekends out of the month. Majority of the families I babysit for are all through the wonderful connections I’ve made with them while employed at a previous Preschool. I was the infant lead teacher there and was responsible for the care of newborns up to the age of nine months. Before I was promoted to infant lead teacher, I was an assistant teacher were I took care of babies from the ages of 9- 18 months. I’ve worked at two previous daycares as well, one in which I cared for infants and toddlers the first two years and was later promoted to teach K-4, as well being in charge of the afterschoolers (ages 7-13). The other daycare I was previously employed, I was an assistant toddler teacher! I have experience working with ALL ages but have the most experience caring for newborns/toddlers :) If you feel like I am the right candidate, I would love the opportunity to care for your kids! Thank you for you time !

Hi, I’m April! I’m a kind, dependable, and loving sitter who truly enjoys helping families feel supported and cared for. I’ve raised my own children and spent years caring for kids in my family and community. I understand what it takes to keep children safe, happy, and engaged—from daily routines to story time and everything in between. I treat every child like they’re my own, and every home with the respect it deserves. Whether you need someone for after-school care, weekend help, or full-time support, I bring patience, reliability, and warmth into every role. I’m also happy to assist with light cleaning, snacks, and making sure your little ones feel loved while you’re away. If you’re looking for a sitter who shows up with heart, I’d love the opportunity to support your family. I’ve cared for children of all ages—from newborns to school-aged kids—through both personal and professional experience. I’ve raised my own children, helped with my nieces and nephews, and provided care for families who needed a reliable and nurturing sitter. I also have experience with children who have unique needs and can adapt to different routines and personalities. CPR & First Aid trained (or you can say: “Willing to get certified” if not yet) • Patient, calm, and caring under pressure • Strong time management and organization skills • Light meal prep and snack handling • Bathing, dressing, and bedtime routines • Activity planning (arts, crafts, reading, playtime) • Comfortable with pets • Respectful of family privacy, home rules, and special instructions

Being a sitter is rewarding because every day with kids is different—whether it’s arts and crafts, outdoor play, or reading stories, I love creating fun moments that kids remember. I’ve cared for children in my family and community for 5+ years, including infants. I’m trained in CPR, and I bring skills in planning activities, organizing routines, and staying calm under pressure.

I have a degree in Elementary Education, am CPR and First Aid certified, and work full time as the 3K lead teacher at a church preschool. I am also working towards my CDA in preschool through the school which I am employed. I began babysitting when I was around ten, first as a "junior" babysitter for my sister and mother, and then alone as I got older. I have over 20 years experience babysitting children from infants through middle school age, and have worked in a childcare setting for 15 of those years. I also volunteered working with the youth at my church in the past, mostly with middle school girls. Although some ages and personalities are more challenging than others, I always find it rewarding working with children. They see the joy and wonder in things we take for granted, and I am always learning something from them. I love music and reading, as well as doing arts and crafts, playing games, and baking. Since I work full time during the week, I am only available weekends and evenings.
