I love being a sitter because caring for children comes naturally to me, and I enjoy creating a calm, safe, and fun environment for them. I have experience with infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids, and I’m comfortable with routines, bedtime, meal prep, and light household help. Families describe me as patient, reliable, and easy to communicate with. My goal is always to keep children happy, engaged, and well-cared for while giving parents peace of mind.

Hello, My name is JaShelle. I was born and raised in Birmingham, Alabama. Hence, the reason why I love southern soul food :) In my free time I enjoy making craft projects, reading, practicing calligraphy, walking the trails at my local park, cooking, and trying new restaurants. My background caring for infants, toddlers, and youth began when I became a volunteer sitter at my church. I transitioned to babysitting for various families throughout my years of completing college. During that time I gained skills and knowledge that have elevated my childcare journey. My love for witnessing children learn and grow encouraged my decision to become a childcare provider and Doula. Building a great rapport and relationship with your child is my top priority. I'm kind, patient and nurturing, and I'm excited about the opportunity to work with your family!

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

I work in a hospital, so I’m CPR/AED and BLS certified .I love cooking so I would be more than happy to cook or even do laundry or any household chores.Also I love animals so if you have animals I wouldn’t have no issues with that either !

Working with children has always been a passion of mine! Growing up, I knew that I wanted to positively impact children in the same way that people have made a positive impact on me as a child. At all times, children should be protected, but they should also be allowed to take safe risks that will further their knowledge and help them evolve into their future selves. By working with children, I aspire to help them attain knowledge regarding personal care activities but also aspire to help them accomplish any goals that their parents have set for them. If I am granted the opportunity to work with your child, I will always put my best foot forward regarding teaching your child about various subjects and regarding anything that you might need my assistance with in general. Lastly, I also have my CPR/First Aid Certification so, your child will be in safe hands with me at all times.

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.
