Hello! My name is Italya and I absolutely love working with kids! I’ve been caring and teaching for children for two years, and it’s something I’m truly passionate about. I worked at a community center where I served as an art instructor for kids. I have also babysitted for multiple families and have many references available. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, so safety is always my top priority. I’m also patient, responsible, and full of energy, which helps me connect with kids and keep them engaged in a positive way. Whether it’s helping with homework, doing crafts, or just having fun, I always aim to create a safe and happy space for the children I care for. I am currently enrolled in university and I have my own transportation. I’m happy to help with pick ups, drop offs, or running errands if needed. I’m also comfortable with light meal preps and basic household tasks. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions!

I love babysitting! I genuinely enjoy the energy and curiosity children bring to everyday life. There is nothing better than helping a child discover a new hobby or seeing them smile after a fun day of play. I’m attentive, caring, and I’m always willing to learn about them to know how to care for them better 🤍 If any more concerns you can contact me at 9562706188 .

Lina was a standout from the first moment she applied to my sitter post. She is proactive, takes initiative, and is easy to communicate with. My kids felt safe with her and said that they really liked her! After she put the kids to bed, she took the time to tidy up the house and go the extra mile. I look forward to having Lina babysit my kids in the future and I would definitely recommend her for babysitting!

Stephanie was our nanny for about 5 months. She was ALWAYS on time, very proactive, energetic, so extremely kind and nurturing to our baby. The only reason she is no longer with us is due to a change in her location. Otherwise, we would have loved to have kept her for as long as we needed a nanny. I cannot say enough good things about her.

Hello, I have spent the better part of this year (including last year) watching over and taking care of my nephew. Suffice to say, I have done an upstanding job, according to both my mother and sister’s reviews. This has even inspired me to consider becoming an elementary teacher. Besides a passion and skill for taking care of children, I am also CPR + First Aid certified from High School, which I graduated last year.

I love being a sitter because I like the idea of helping out the parents when they need help and I love making good experiences for the kids. I have a good enough of experience with kids because I have 2 younger siblings. There was some time where I had to take care of them by myself. I have my certification in cpr so I have learned the best way to help give cpr.

I like taking care of children because it is a way to put patience into practice and to learn new things. I enjoy the way children see the world differently, and you realize that they are much smarter than we think. Throughout my life, I had a nanny, and I know they play a fundamental role in our daily lives and are also a great help. I have 4 years of experience caring for children between the ages of 2 and 6. My responsibilities included taking them to school, preparing their lunches, taking them to extracurricular activities, and handling basic daily tasks. I consider myself a very friendly and responsible person; I adapt easily to new environments and I am also good at helping children channel their emotions when they don’t know how to express them. I was also a teacher for a group of 15–20 children, so I am able to work with all types of personalities. Also i’m in the process of becoming an Au Pair in France, so this work will help me with my experience profile.
