Dhespina H.
- 4 years paid experience
- 14 miles
Hello! My name is Dhespina, and I babysit three children (ages 6, 11, and 14) every weekday morning, Monday through Friday. I started babysitting the kids in January 2025. My responsibilities include waking the children up for school, helping the youngest get dressed and brush his teeth, making sure they’ve had breakfast, packing their lunches, and getting all three to school on time. In the afternoons, I pick them up from school, take them to appointments when needed, and occasionally stay after school to babysit. I love babysitting because I genuinely enjoy being around children. It doesn’t feel like work to me, but something that comes naturally because of how much I enjoy it. ***CERTIFIED IN ADULT, CHILD AND INFANT, PEDIATRIC CPR/AED & FIRST AID***

Hello, my name is Sarah. I’m 25 years old and currently seeking an after school part-time position where I can bring my energy, creativity, and experience to a warm family environment. I have extensive hands on experience caring for children of different ages and developmental stages, and I take pride in being a reliable, honest, and nurturing caregiver. My approach to childcare blends responsibility with fun. I love spending time outdoors, encouraging imaginative play, and engaging children in creative projects. Cooking and artistic activities are among my favorite hobbies, and I enjoy sharing them with the children I care for. I’m also glad to help with light household tasks such as tidying, laundry, and errands. In addition to general childcare, I have experience supporting children in special education, including those on the spectrum. I strive to be patient and supportive through each stage of a child’s growth. It’s also very important to me to work with an inclusive, LGBTQ+ friendly family that values kindness, respect, and acceptance for all.

I love working with children their inquisitive attitudes and loads of energy make them a joy to be around. Taking care of children has been my passion. Allowing children to grow, explore and learn is a rewarding experience that keeps me excited as I continue caring for children of all ages. Learning through exploration, art, reading, nature, and outdoor observations offers children a rich experience. Nurturing each child’s interests helps them become strong solid people who respect themselves.

Hello future families! 😊 I am a computer science student who loves anything computers, design, and art! My schedule is quite flexible due to my schooling schedule, which means I can work with you to find a routine that works the best for everyone. If I didn’t like computers so much, I would probably be a full time babysitter for the rest of my life 🤭. My nanny families truly become apart of my heart and I keep in contact with all of them! I communicate with parents in whatever way they prefer, whether through quick chats at the end of the day or regular updates via text or phone call. When it comes to household rules, I always follow the parents' lead. I enjoy playing board games and doing puzzles, and I especially love hands-on art and activities that help children learn and grow. I am comfortable caring for up to two children between the ages of newborn and 5 (most of my experience is with infants-toddlers). I am eager to bring my enthusiasm and care to your family, and I look forward to creating a nurturing and fun environment for your little ones.
