Hi, my name is Liv. I'm 22 yrs old & have over 6 years of experience in childcare. Throughout this time, I've worked as both a babysitter & nanny for children ranging in age from newborn-12 yrs old. In high school, I completed a two-hour childcare course. After high school I also completed many certificate courses working at the YWCA, and since then, I've gained hands-on experience with a variety of responsibilities including meal preparation, transportation, outdoor play, light housekeeping, diaper changes & homeschooling. I also have experience working with children who require additional support, including a child with cerebral palsy. I truly enjoy working with children & would be happy to share more about my background. Please feel free to reach out with any questions!

Hi! My name is Zeffyn! I’m a 28 year old trans man who loves working with children & making a difference in their lives positively. I would love to work for a family who is lgbtq+ friendly as that is part of my identity. I have had several years of experience with kids & absolutely love the time I’ve had working with them. Being neurodivergent as well has helped me connect with kiddos on a deeper level & understand how they’re feeling when it’s harder to navigate!

Hi I’m Lily! I’m looking for a babysitting job! I’m 19 years old and have a younger sibling and nieces and nephews I’ve watched for years. Usually from babies to 10. I am a sophomore in college and a D1 dancer. Through my dance experience I’ve helped teach kids dance and grown close with many families, who were in need of a sitter. And I’m great with all kids!

I absolutely adore kids, I want my own when I get married. Kids bring me so much laughter and joy. To me babysitting isn’t just a job, it’s an opportunity to help little kids with whatever they need. I am a senior in high school but I am looking to go into becoming a doctor in a children’s hospital. I have two years of experience of child care. I am very patient, I love to have fun with children and just seeing them smile.

Hi there! I’m Elisha — a mom of four (three school-aged and one at home) and a lifelong caregiver with over 15 years of experience nurturing and supporting children’s growth. I’m currently opening my home to 1–2 little buddies to join our days for play, learning, and lots of fun in a peaceful, family-style setting. For the past 6 years, I’ve provided in-home childcare, and before that, I spent years as a nanny and in daycare settings. Those experiences have given me a deep appreciation for creating a calm, safe, and loving environment where each child feels seen and valued. Our days are filled with imaginative play, outdoor adventures, reading time, and hands-on activities that let kids explore and be kids. I believe in gentle guidance, open communication, and building trust so both parents and children feel comfortable and cared for. If you’re looking for a warm, home-based care option where your child can learn, laugh, and make real connections, I’d love to chat and see if we’re a good fit!
