For starters I am a mother of 3 ages 16, 7 and 8. I love kids and I believe loving a child as your own is important. Also I have worked in healthcare and have taken care of variety of clients ages from young preteen to adult. I’m cpr/first aid certified. I’m trying to go to school for my LPN and also work as a direct support professional currently. As a mother and especially being a single mother for a very long time, I realized how hard it can be to find a sitter or someone you can trust to watch your children and how to juggle work, school and let’s face it life itself. I know it’s important to have time for yourself and have a reset or time with your partner Also coming from where I didn’t really have a lot of family to help me so I have learned to be very independent and reliable and very blunt and honest and I know what’s it’s like to ask for help or needing those date nights, we are all human and have needs. I haven’t babysit since I was in my teens but also being a mother is a big plus because I have gone through the steps and know exactly what a child needs and as well in case of emergency. God has blessed with me 3 beautiful kids and I just want to give people the chance to be able to have that time away or reset. So being a mother I feel it’s already an experience to have all together and going through it 3 times and especially because I’m familiar with the age ranges yall would need. I hope I can have the chance to help you out and create a fun, safe environment for your children. Thank you.

"Your family's newest superhero!" As a big sister of 8, I bring a wealth of experience and a bubbly personality to every babysitting job. I'm very outgoing and hands-on, and I don't mind getting messy – in fact, I embrace it! I believe that each child learns on a different level, and I'm passionate about understanding and catering to those unique needs. Helping families is a joy for me, as I aspire to work with children long-term. Building strong connections and relationships with both the kids and their families is very important, and I prioritize good communication. I'm committed to following the parents' lead and providing a safe, fun, and enriching environment. With a background in early childhood education and brain development, I bring a knowledgeable approach to childcare. References available upon request!

Hi! I’m a reliable and experienced babysitter with 3 years of hands-on childcare experience. I’ve volunteered in church nurseries caring for infants, and regularly babysit for families during small groups and events. One of my most rewarding experiences was managing a group of 7 children, ages 3–12, on my own—keeping everyone safe, engaged, and having fun! I’m patient, responsible, and truly enjoy spending time with kids of all ages. I’m 18 and currently working toward becoming a registered nurse—I’ll be starting nursing school soon, which runs from 8 AM to 5 PM. I’m fun, outgoing, and love spending time with kids—especially doing hands-on activities like simple science experiments, nature walks, and helping them explore and learn new things! Right now, I’m close to reaching my savings goal for a car, so I’m looking for flexible babysitting jobs that fit around my current part-time work schedule (mainly on my days off). I’m also open to short-term opportunities that could temporarily take the place of my current job. Once school starts, I’ll be looking for something more consistent in the evenings—ideally a regular nanny position that works around my class schedule. I’m passionate about childcare and love creating fun, safe, and enriching experiences for kids. I’d love the chance to work with your family!

I grew up playing softball and just finished up playing college softball. I have moved back home and I’m looking for a family or families I can help with by babysitting. All throughout high school I was a cadet teacher and worked with 5/6 graders in PE. I believe while working with kids you have to create a good bond with them in order for them to trust and like you. Therefore I am wanting to work with kids that I can create that bond with.
