Anisa S.
- 3 years paid experience
- 4 miles
Hi there! My name is Anisa, and I have a deep passion for working with children. Growing up in Jamaica and currently being a college student, I've had the joy of interacting with children from diverse backgrounds, enriching my understanding and approach to childcare. I love working with children because of the joy and energy they bring into the world. There's nothing more fulfilling than witnessing a child's curiosity and creativity blossom. I believe in creating a nurturing and stimulating environment where children feel safe and encouraged to explore and learn. I have significant experience in childcare, including babysitting and volunteering. During high school, I volunteered at a nursing home in Jamaica, where I developed essential skills in patience and compassion. Additionally, my academic pursuits have given me valuable insights into child development and effective communication.

Dhespina H.
- 4 years paid experience
- 14 miles
Hello! My name is Dhespina, and I babysit three children (ages 6, 11, and 14) every weekday morning, Monday through Friday. I started babysitting the kids in January 2025. My responsibilities include waking the children up for school, helping the youngest get dressed and brush his teeth, making sure they’ve had breakfast, packing their lunches, and getting all three to school on time. In the afternoons, I pick them up from school, take them to appointments when needed, and occasionally stay after school to babysit. I love babysitting because I genuinely enjoy being around children. It doesn’t feel like work to me, but something that comes naturally because of how much I enjoy it. ***CERTIFIED IN ADULT, CHILD AND INFANT, PEDIATRIC CPR/AED & FIRST AID***

Hello, my name is Sarah. I’m 25 years old and currently seeking an after school part-time position where I can bring my energy, creativity, and experience to a warm family environment. I have extensive hands on experience caring for children of different ages and developmental stages, and I take pride in being a reliable, honest, and nurturing caregiver. My approach to childcare blends responsibility with fun. I love spending time outdoors, encouraging imaginative play, and engaging children in creative projects. Cooking and artistic activities are among my favorite hobbies, and I enjoy sharing them with the children I care for. I’m also glad to help with light household tasks such as tidying, laundry, and errands. In addition to general childcare, I have experience supporting children in special education, including those on the spectrum. I strive to be patient and supportive through each stage of a child’s growth. It’s also very important to me to work with an inclusive, LGBTQ+ friendly family that values kindness, respect, and acceptance for all.
