Find experienced babysitters in Scottsdale, AZ

Hi! My name is Olivia, I am 18 and I am a student at ASU's Honors College! I work part-time as a baker for a local bagel shop, I love working out, singing, and spending time with family/friends. I have had experience with young kids for a while because my mom was a pre-school teacher for many years. I love being around little kids, their creativity never fails to amaze me. I also love animals, so pets of any kind are totally okay with me and I don't mind doing some housework either!

I’m the former founder, director and owner of one of Chicago’s most prestigious day schools, where I served thousands of children and mentored hundreds of teachers over three decades. In 2020, my husband and I sold our school to Bright Horizons (coincidentally, the parent company of SitterCity.) After the acquisition, I joined the Bright Horizons corporate side for 18 months, I retired early and moved to Fountain Hills. In my “retirement,” I spent one year “back in the game” directing the Early Childhood Department at the Valley of the Sun Jewish Community Center (185 kids + 68 teachers.) When available, I enjoy providing occasional babysitting or “back up care” for whenever your child cannot attend school (including sick care) or when your nanny is sick or otherwise calls in. I can often accommodate your Nanny’s vacations, as well. Additionally, I can provide Nanny Management; assisting with issues, conflict resolution, training, mentoring, lesson planning, baby-proofing, nursery set-up, age appropriate modifications, observation and more. When babysitting, I come prepared with an arsenal of fun: activities, books, music, crafts, games, etc. In most cases, I require a 6 hour minimum shift, I also provide overnight or multi-day 24hr care while you travel. (I can even travel with you, if my schedule allows.) My rates are firm at min $35/hour for the first child; rates for multiple children negotiated on an individual basis. Daily & overnight rates for 24hr overnight care are also negotiable and curated individually. I am fully vaccinated (Pfizer) and receive all boosters and flu/rsv shots. *Also, CPR/AED + First Aid certification valid through 3/2027 + I hold an AZ Level 1 (highest level) fingerprint card. Here are a few articles and also a commercial from some years ago that tell a bit about me and my story (obviously from before we sold the school.) https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=axd3gXb3Y1c http://voyagechicago.com/interview/meet-jennifer-heim-detour-2-discovery-day-school-south-loop/ https://greatersouthloop.org/news/south-loop-business-spotlight-detour-2-discovery-day-school/ ** I’m allergic to dogs/cats but have no problem taking non-drowsy allergy meds for my shifts at households with furry friends, just let me know! *I’m on the board of a bully rescue, so know that I’m certainly an animal lover and I love dogs of all breeds!

Hello! My name is Ayisha, and I’m a registered nurse with experience in both pediatrics and the ICU. I’ve been babysitting for the past four years, primarily with one wonderful family, and occasionally for several others as needed. Coming from a large family with many younger cousins, I’ve been around children my whole life and have developed a natural ability to connect with them. I’ve also worked as a Day Camp Counselor for children ages 3–13 and tutored at Kumon Math & Reading, giving me experience in both fun and educational settings. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and keeping them engaged through activities like board games, reading, outdoor play, and more. I always respect and follow any specific rules, routines, or guidelines provided—building trust with both children and parents is something I value deeply. I look forward to the opportunity to meet you and your family! Warm regards, Ayisha

Hello my name is Andrea :) I graduated from ASU in May 2020 with a degree in psychology. I have worked with kids of all ages ever since I was 14 years old. I have done babysitting for family and family friends. I worked in the Chandler Unified School district in a before and after school program for kids. I was the lead teacher for a preschool which also had an infant room, so I would care for infants. :) Currently I am a care coordinator for a company that works with clients who have developmental disabilities. I do have my fingerprint clearance card and have my CPR & First Aid certification. I love taking care of children. I never see it as a job because I really enjoy caring for kids. My number one priority is ensuring safety but also making sure kids are having fun!
