Hi there! I'm Maria, and I’d love to help care for your little ones!! With a heart full of patience and a genuine love for children, I bring over 5 years of experience to babysitting. Whether it’s playtime, helping with homework, or simply being a comforting presence, I’m here to provide a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for your kids. I believe every child is unique, and I take the time to understand their individual needs and interests. I enjoy quality time with the kids so I’m always ready to get creative with a plan or game ideas (puzzles, pillow castles, arts and crafts, visits to a museum, home spa time, cook a recipe or big legos towers). My goal is to not just look after your kids, but to help them feel happy and secure while you’re away. If you're looking for a trusted, kind, and playful babysitter, I’d love the opportunity to meet and chat! (Quick note I’m Infant qualified, I have a CPR and First Aid certification)

Hello! I bring over ten years of experience working as a trusted babysitter. I’ve had the privilege of supporting families by providing dependable, attentive care to children while also helping keep their homes running smoothly and efficiently. As a babysitter, I do more than supervise—I engage children with patience, warmth, and creativity, making sure they feel safe, supported, and genuinely cared for in your absence. Whether it’s helping with homework, playtime, bedtime routines, or offering comfort during transitions, I understand the importance of nurturing each child’s unique needs. Alongside childcare, I also offer support with laundry, errands, and pet care. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, bilingual in English and Spanish, and fully vaccinated (COVID-19, Flu, and Tdap). I’m currently seeking occasional, one-time, occacional, and date-night opportunities where I can bring my experience, reliability, and care into your home. Thank you for your time

Hi, I’m Amanda! I’m a former special education teacher with over 6 years of classroom experience, and these days I focus on supporting children and families more personally, one-on-one. Working with kids has always been my passion—I love getting to know each child’s unique personality, learning style, and interests, and finding ways to help them grow while having fun along the way. With a mix of academic support, creative play, and positive structure, I enjoy everything from homework help and tutoring to arts and crafts, games, and hands-on activities that spark curiosity. I’ve had the joy of working with children of all ages and abilities, and I bring patience, empathy, and consistency to every interaction. Families often tell me they appreciate my kindness, reliability, and clear communication, as well as the balance of structure and play I provide. My goal is always to create a safe, positive, and engaging environment where kids feel supported, confident, and free to be themselves. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your child with care, encourage their growth, and make the day a little brighter, I’d love to connect with you!

Bonjour! I’m a proud St. Lucian with a big heart and a passion for babysitting that blossomed when I was just 11 years old. Growing up, I helped raise my three younger siblings, who were born more than a decade after me. Those early experiences taught me patience, empathy, and how to guide little ones through every stage. From first steps to singing/sporty personalities. Watching them grow into their own identities lit a fire in me to support other children in the same way. Over the years, I’ve continued to babysit younger cousins and family friends, giving me hands-on experience with kids of various ages whenever I have time with my technical wiritng positon. I naturally gravitate toward creating a nurturing, positive environment where children feel safe, heard, and empowered. I'm especially proud of teaching manners in fun, memorable ways, and I bring calm energy and warm encouragement to every interaction. Whether we’re playing games, learning something new, or just having silly moments, I’m there with love, laughter, and genuine care.
