Hi! I’m Ali. I’ve been a babysitter, starting as a mother’s helper since age 12, with now 15+ years of hands on sitter experience with all ages. I’ve worked as a private nanny for the past 6+ years helping families navigate newborn - toddler phases and beyond. I have a passion for wellness and understand how important it is for young kids to have a stable and reliable caregiver whom they feel safe and connected to beyond the home unit. I love connecting with families to provide the full scope of childcare, helping parents find time to nurture their own needs and feel at peace knowing their kids are in loving hands. I’ve worked alongside a nurse and newborn care specialist for years, have extensive experience with infants & toddlers though my passion for play extends through all ages. Whether it’s homework help, crafts or outdoor fun, I’ve done it all with a range of ages and always foster a positive and supportive environment. I have families I’ve worked with for 10+ years that are still connected to me and apart of my caregiving network. I’m available for part-time care, date nights and weekend help, and willing to travel as well. It truly takes a village and I would love to be apart of yours!

I’m a passionate and experienced early childhood educator with over 5 years of hands-on experience working with children from infancy through early elementary age. I currently teach Pre-K full time during the school year and am available for babysitting and childcare during summer break only. I’ve previously served as both a lead and support teacher in preschool classrooms, recreation programs, and early learning centers. My childcare experience goes beyond basic care — I focus on creating engaging, developmentally appropriate activities that support social, emotional, and academic growth. I’ve worked with children of all abilities, including those with special needs and behavior plans, and I’m trained in de-escalation and positive discipline techniques. I am CPR and First Aid certified and currently pursuing a bachelor’s degree in Elementary and Special Education. Whether I’m helping with routines, planning a sensory activity, or simply providing a safe and loving environment, I bring professionalism, patience, and creativity to every family I work with.

Hi my name is Hannah Harper I just graduated University of Arizona this past May! I have been a babysitter for 10+ years. I love working with kids and I'm a safe driver. I've earned over 900 hours volunteering working mostly with small children in an organization called National Charity League for the past 6 years (09-15). We moved to Scottsdale over 8 years ago over the winter break. Since living in AZ I have helped over 10 families before and during my college years! I graduate from college with a humanities degree! I hope to hear from you soon!

I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy helping children learn, grow, and feel supported in a safe, fun environment. Every child is unique, and I love getting to know their personalities and encouraging their curiosity. Watching kids develop confidence and creativity is incredibly rewarding, and I feel honored to be a part of that process. I have over 5 years of experience in childcare, working with children ranging from infants to pre-teens. My experience includes babysitting for families, volunteering in after-school programs, and assisting with educational activities. I'm comfortable managing daily routines, organizing enriching activities, helping with homework, and ensuring safety and emotional well-being. I'm a recent graduate with a degree in Biological Sciences, which gives me a strong foundation in health, development, and critical thinking—skills that translate well to childcare. I'm trained in CPR and First Aid, highly organized, patient, and great at communicating with both children and parents. I also bring creativity to my work, often incorporating fun learning games and nature-based activities into the day.

I became a caregiver 10+ years ago. I started by helping a friends friend and they loved me and decided to hire me full time. And it just grew from there. I had moms referring me to everyone. I also fell in love with the children. It was always a good day having fun and getting hugs and kisses and their innocence. Thy always think the best of everyone . I’ve cared for newborns, newborn twins (6 sets), toddlers and multiple age groups and multiple children at the same time. I feel that who I am makes me a great nanny. I’m very loving to “my” children. They’re just innocent kids who need love and attention. Easy peezy! I’m also creative, caring, patient, positive, I take charge, multi-tasked, can take charge and a great mother’s helper.

Experienced, reliable, and down-to-earth professional with over 10 years in childcare, household management, and personalized family support. I’m all about creating systems that make life easier—whether that’s keeping a home running smoothly, organizing busy schedules, or making sure kids feel safe, supported, and loved. Known for being detail-oriented, adaptable, and easy to work with, I bring a calm, can-do attitude to whatever comes my way. I love helping families feel more balanced and taken care of, so they can focus on what matters most.

Hi there! My name is Ofonimeh! I also go by Tayo! I’m 26 and I’m finishing up my last semester at ASU. I've been a sitter/nanny for 8 years. Most of my experience comes from being an occasional/date night sitter. Over the last two years I've transitioned into being a full-time nanny. I believe in making the effort to provide a safe and comfortable space for the child/children. Nannies are a big part of a child's development. I want to be as supportive and nurturing as I can. I love arts and crafts. Painting, coloring, and making bracelets are some of the things I've done. I'm also a fan of baking with the kids. It's educational and fun!

Hi there. I have been excited about Sitting for children since I was 12. I’m mature and a mother of two wonderful, grown sons. I’ve worked in a private preschool, public schools and volunteered helping with children of all ages. I’m a “Fun Maker” of almost anything and I truly enjoy children. I have a medical background and references from families I’ve cared over 30 years. October 2022 Dear Family, I am recommending Sherri Newman for the nanny position with your family. Sherri was with us, and took exceptional care of our firstborn son from May - October 2022. When we began exploring options for in home care for our son I became very concerned at the lack of responsible candidates in this field. Sherri however was a breath of fresh air even prior to day one. She was professional, responsive, polite, friendly & genuine. Sherri interacted so gently, energetically and honestly with our son and she was an instant hit with him. Soon after Sherri started working with our family our son would light up with excitement and reach for her when she came in, in the mornings. It gave us invaluable peace of mind that our baby was connecting so well with his caregiver. Originally, we hired Sherri with the understanding that we would only need her services for four months. I planned to return to my job for only one trime FROM THE DESK OF The Smith Family ster after maternity leave to tie up some loose ends. However, Sherri made things easier than expected for our family so I was able to extend my employment through the end of the year. We are now only parting ways as I plan to close out the remainder of the year with accrued vacation time and PTO and will now be able to stay home with our family. During her time with us Sherri went above and beyond for our family. She cleaned our home and did laundry when our sons naps permitted. She stayed later when needed. She even brought him books and toys that she knew would help with advancing his development. Our family felt like we truly lucked out to have Sherri take care of our son. Moreover, we felt like she became a part of our family in a short while. Someone is going to luck out to have Sherri oversee their children. If we had to do it all over again, we would love to have Sherri be our sons nanny. Thank you, The Smith Family
