I’ve always had a deep love for working with children, a passion that started from growing up in a large family. Being surrounded by little ones my entire life taught me the importance of patience, kindness, and creating fun, engaging environments where children feel valued and safe. What I love most about working with children is their genuine curiosity, boundless energy, and unique perspectives. They have a way of bringing joy and light to every situation, and I feel privileged to be part of their lives during their formative years. Over the years, l've had the opportunity to care for children of various ages, from infants to school-aged kids, as well as special needs, which has taught me how to handle different situations with patience and adaptability. I have taken on a variety of jobs ranging from short-term care for a few hours to overnight stays lasting several days. I’ve gained valuable experience in adapting to different routines, personalities, and family needs. My ability to form connections with children quickly, understand their needs, and create a structured yet fun environment is something I pride myself on. What sets me apart is not just my experience but my genuine dedication to each child’s well-being and development. I go beyond simple supervision by actively engaging with children through activities that stimulate learning and creativity. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing educational games, or simply offering a listening ear, I strive to create a positive, supportive space. I understand the trust it takes to leave your children in someone else’s care, and I am committed to ensuring that your child feels safe, happy, and respected every step of the way.

Hi, my name is Amber! I’m a special education teacher in a first-grade classroom, and I’m currently looking for summer work. I absolutely love working with kids—whether it’s teaching and sharing those amazing “aha” moments or engaging with them through play and exploration. I enjoy being outdoors, discovering new things, and encouraging curiosity and creativity in children. I’d love the opportunity to bring that energy to a summer position!

I'm 25 years old, and have spent the last 7 years working in retail. I know you might be thinking "Why on earth would I hire someone who's done nothing but work retail?" I don't blame you! However, I can assure you that I am one of the best babysitter's around! Recently, I've been looking to get in to a career that not only helps me pay my bills, but is fulfilling. I feel like not enough people look for work that's going to make them happy. Lucky for me, I was born in to a HUGE family. No, really. Between both sides of my family, I have 13 aunts and uncles, and each of those aunts and uncles have children. I've been babysitting since I was 13 years old. I have experience caring for newborns all the way up to those angst ridden 17 year old's. I've had the ability to watch each child in my family grow, and it's honestly one of the most rewarding experiences short of having my own children. I have a knack for finding fun things to do, like going to parks, crafting, reading stories, etc. I can also help with any kids learning to play the Clarinet! Animals are another passion of mine, so any pets in the home wouldn't be a problem. I'm completely flexible and adaptable!

Hi there! I’m Leah — a patient, upbeat, and safety-conscious sitter with a background in neuroscience and a heart for helping others thrive. I’ve worked with kids and teens in a variety of roles: from teaching swim lessons as a certified lifeguard to supporting youth with anxiety and sensory needs through structured routines and calm, consistent care. What I love most about being a sitter is the chance to create fun, meaningful moments — whether we’re doing crafts, playing outside, or just chatting about life. I believe in treating every child as a unique individual and supporting them with empathy, curiosity, and clear communication. I’m CPR/AED certified, Wilderness First Aid trained, and experienced with neurodivergent youth, including kids who use AAC or letterboards. I’m also a clean driver, love pets, and am happy to help with light housekeeping and meal prep. Currently pursuing my degree in Integrative Neuroscience, I bring a trauma-informed, growth-minded approach to every family I work with. I’m looking for families who value structure, creativity, and genuine connection.
