Grace  C., Babysitter in Independence, LA 70443 with 0 years of paid experience

Hey, My Name is Grace! I am 18 years old and love working closely with children. I have 7 other siblings and 5 younger ones and a bunch of baby cousins and a newly born nephew. I may not have experience in paid babysitting but I have a lot in unpaid babysitting. I aspire to be a NICU/PICU RN right now and maybe a pediatrician later on in life. I will be going to college this coming fall to become a nurse and chase my dreams. I finished high school in May and I am certified in CPR, CNA( Certified Nurse Assistant), PCT (Patient Care Technician), Phelboyomy, and EMR ( Emergency Medical Responder). I may be new in the healthcare field but that doesn't mean I'm not willing to learn or give my all. I have an open ear to whatever you and your family may discuss and I can't wait to speak with you soon.

Sally G., Babysitter in Independence, LA 70443 with 20 years of paid experience

I have experience working with children of all ages. I mainly have a medical background but I’m looking to change careers as I have always wanted to be a Nanny. I worked for my Aunt in her home daycare the past 20 years helping out when she had errands to run or went on vacation, I also helped during the summer when she had more children in her care. My aunt has passed away and the daycare closed but I’m finding myself wanting to be a Nanny more now then ever. My kids are grown and I have one grandchild, well one blood grandchild but I have two that are not blood as well. I am the person everyone calls to watch the kids and on more then one occasion I had a few of them for a month- 3 months.

Giselle C., Babysitter in Independence, LA 70443 with 2 years of paid experience

I’m a compassionate, attentive, and reliable babysitter with 2 years of hands-on experience caring for children of various ages. I truly enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where kids feel comfortable and cared for. Whether it’s helping with homework, planning creative activities, or simply being a patient listener, I always strive to support children’s well-being and development. I’m especially known for my calm demeanor, quick responsiveness, and the genuine connections I build with each child I care for. Parents have described me as dependable, responsible, and warm-hearted — someone they can trust to treat their little ones like family. I’d love the opportunity to bring that same level of care and attentiveness to your home!

Love sitting to help parents get the “me” time they deserve and feel safe while they children are with people they built trust with. - I have 6 years of experience 2 of those years with autistic children, acidic reflux, asthma and etc - I’m extremely well with kids they are drawn to me, cooking, cleaning, bottle help and cleaning, playtime, but also keeping them on track with school and other activities.

Deyanira W., Babysitter in Independence, LA 70443 with 5 years of paid experience

Hey, I’m a upcoming babysitter for families outside of my own.. I’ve been babysitting family members children due to them having to work and me being capable and very trustworthy with getting the job done for a little over 5 years now.. I’m 22 years old and have a child of my own who’s now 8 months and would love to travel around and bring him to work with me around others if possible. Children really brings out the inner me and that’s why i love them so much, aside from the downfalls in realality you look at those innocent children and can’t do anything but smile. I treat others as if they were mine as well because one day he’s going to have to leave my side in someone else care..i feel as if me loving this job, loving others children for them and not the pay sets me apart because this is what i love.. getting my degree to become a pediatrician.
