Anisa S.
- 3 years paid experience
- 4 miles
Hi there! My name is Anisa, and I have a deep passion for working with children. Growing up in Jamaica and currently being a college student, I've had the joy of interacting with children from diverse backgrounds, enriching my understanding and approach to childcare. I love working with children because of the joy and energy they bring into the world. There's nothing more fulfilling than witnessing a child's curiosity and creativity blossom. I believe in creating a nurturing and stimulating environment where children feel safe and encouraged to explore and learn. I have significant experience in childcare, including babysitting and volunteering. During high school, I volunteered at a nursing home in Jamaica, where I developed essential skills in patience and compassion. Additionally, my academic pursuits have given me valuable insights into child development and effective communication.

- 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***

I'm a energetic, fun, trustworthy, responsible and mature adult willing to create a friendship with the children and family. I enjoy reading, teaching, and doing projects with children. I take pride in teaching children new things, making them laugh and creating a peaceful, caring environment. I would be able to drive if needed since I have my own reliable vehicle. I enjoy animals and would be able to take them for walks or play with them. I'm also willing to assist the family with household tasks as needed. I will supply my reference information upon request. I am flexible with the rates and sure we could work out an arrangement based on the families needs.
