Hi! My name is Olive, and I have several years of experience caring for children of all ages through nanying, regular babysitting, transportation help, and camp counseling. I currently work for multiple families on both a regular and occasional basis, helping with school pickups and drop-offs, after-school care, playtime, meals, routines, and keeping kids engaged in a safe and supportive environment. I previously worked as a nanny for a family of five, caring for three children ages 3-7, where I was heavily involved in daily routines, activities, meals, outings, and family trips. I've served as a junior camp counselor at Central Studio, helping young campers engage in creative activities while ensuring a fun and structured environment. Beyond childcare, I have experience in customer service and team leadership, working at Oberweis Dairy and as a manager at Snarf's Sandwiches. These roles have strengthened my responsibility, patience, and multitasking skills, which I bring to every babysitting job. I love working with kids, whether it's through creative play, outdoor activities, or helping with homework. Looking forward to meeting your family! - Olive

I’m a sophomore at WashU studying math and have 10 years of babysitting experience with kids from the ages of 1 to 13. My go to activity when babysitting is to either take the kids out to the park, or if rainy, enjoy an indoor crafting session! I have my own car, so I could easily drive to wherever you’re located! I’m also CPR and First Aid certified (expires and will be renewed July 2027).

Isabella did a fantastic job babysitting our kiddos, aged 1 and 9. She was very timely, responsible and organized, and we really appreciated how fast she was able to adapt to our kids’ needs and their routines. She went above and beyond, not only providing exceptional childcare, but helping around the house too. Our kids always look forward to babysitting nights with Isa!

Hi there! I’m Erin, a 35-year-old with a passion for working with children. I’m currently seeking part-time opportunities but am open to full-time work as well. Over the years, I’ve worn a few hats, from nannying to teaching outdoors at Whole Child Montessori School in Portland, and even working as a rock climbing instructor. With a background in English from the University of Missouri - Columbia, I also bring a love for learning and creativity to everything I do. In my free time, you can usually find me climbing, running, or exploring the outdoors on hikes. Adventure and activity are a big part of my life, and I love bringing that spirit to my work with children. My approach is all about empowering kids to make safe, informed decisions while offering plenty of positive reinforcement and compassion. I always make sure to keep things light with a sense of humor and embrace their unique personalities—there’s nothing quite like seeing kids shine in their own goofy ways! With over ten years of experience caring for infants through to older kids, I’m well-equipped for the energy and excitement that comes with the job. Coming from a big family myself, I know how to keep up with the lively atmosphere that kids bring. I especially enjoy encouraging imaginative play, getting outside for adventures, and diving into a good story together. I’m fully vaccinated and boosted. I’d love the chance to connect with you and your family! Warmly, Erin

Hi families! I’m Val 😊 I’m a 27-year-old experienced nanny based in University City, currently looking for occasional or recurring babysitting. I have experience with multiple children of different ages, and I also worked as an Au Pair, which gave me valuable hands-on experience with daily routines, structure, and building strong bonds with kids. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, fully vaccinated, and bilingual (Spanish & English). I’m also very active (I was a national swimmer for 6 years), so I love keeping kids engaged through play, outdoor activities, and a healthy routine. Non-smoker, pet-friendly, and no allergies. Feel free to reach out! I’d love to connect and learn more about your family’s needs!

I have 2 and a half years childcare experience with children ages 0 months to 12 years old. I also am cpr and first aid certified for infant/adult. I have a 4 year old that I would need to bring along with due to the fact I do not have childcare for him. I have worked with multiple children with special needs and am always willing to learn further to better fit your child's needs. I have paid for and can provide my extensive background check and can provide my cpr certificate as well. I also have an amazing letter of recommendation from my present/former boss. I am available to work Mondays and Tuesdays anytime.

Hi! My name is Merritt :) I am a recent graduate from Butler University with a BS in Biochemistry and a minor in Healthcare Administration. I am currently taking a gap year while applying to medical schools with goals to pursue a career as a physician scientist specializing in pediatric oncology. I am passionate about providing children with safe, joyful, and nurturing care. I have spent the last 7 years working with children of all ages--from newborns to teenagers-- and multiples (up to four children at any one time, including nanny share) as well as children with both medical and developmental special needs. My background working and volunteering in healthcare and childcare allows me to approach every situation with a level-head, confidence, and compassion. I am EMT-B trained as well as certified in CPR/First-Aid and "Stop the Silence" CSA prevention. I am happy to assist with meal prep, light cleaning, laundry, errands, and pet care. I love the outdoors, animals, crafts, puzzles, and creating hands-on activities that spark curiosity and creativity in kids. I am always looking for a long-term opportunity with a family who values warmth, structure, and strong communication; I am open to overnight positions (with negotiable rates). Please reach out with any questions--I'd love to learn more about your family's needs!

Merritt was a fantastic baby sitter for our 2 kids! She was incredibly responsible, organized and accommodating to our 1 and 9 year old. The kids gravitated towards her immediately! She was very caring and engaging; the kids loved their time with her. Playing, feeding and night time routines-she did it all. With her depth of childcare experience we always knew our kids were safe and secure in her hands.

Hello! My name is Samantha! I currently work as a CPR certified personal trainer with a Bachelor's in Foods and Nutrition from SDSU. Despite my current field in health and nutrition, I have worked with kids since i before I was 13 years old. Most of my experience has been volunteer through my churches, but I also have years worth of babysitting experiencing kids of different ages. I also have experience as a tutor. When I was in junior high, I used to help out with the preschool and toddler classes at church. By the time I was 13, I was a teacher for the preschool class. I did this for five years, and I often babysat for the kids in my class as well. It broke my heart to say goodbye to all of my students when I moved to San Diego to pursue a degree in nutrition. After moving to San Diego, I spent a couple of years working in the 2 year old class at my church. I had to stop when the church closed down. The last couple years have been focused entirely on my degree. However, I really miss working with kids. I enjoys making up fun games to play and listening to their crazy made up stories. I know how hard it can be to pick a sitter for your child. I would love to meet up with you in person and let you interview me so that you can feel more comfortable.

Samantha was an amazing nanny. My husband became a stay at home dad which is the only reason we let her go. I would hire her back in an instant. Always on time. Always reliable. She took care of every need we had and was unbothered by son during his teething phase. We had her for only 6 months but she was a life-saver for me. My son can be very energetic and she kept up with him and encouraged his learning and development.

Hello! My name is Maddie. I’ve been working with kids for several years and have been paid for 4. I have experience with all ages and can change diapers as well as helped potty train. I love working with kids and helping them become the wonderful little people we know they can be. I am first aid and CPR certified and know how to remain calm in difficult situations with kids. I would love the opportunity to help care for your kids and help make your day a little bit easier. What I enjoy about sitting is getting to help kids feel comfortable in their own homes and have fun with them as well as helping with all the day to day little things. I enjoy getting to help out around the house because I know parents are busy and i love getting to do my part. I’ve always loved working with kids and I love singing to them, playing games with them, or even just laying with them. I am very excited for the chance to help with your kids and hang out with them!

Maddie was perfect teacher for my 3 year old daughter. My daughter isn’t afraid to push the line and Maddie was able to help her see that line in a loving caring environment where my daughter could still be herself!

Hi, my name is Simone! I recently graduated from the University of Maryland and am starting law school in the fall. I have loved working with kids my entire life. My favorite age group is toddlers/preschoolers, but I have experience with kids of all ages. I am looking for summer nannying or babysitting opportunities, as well as part-time opportunities during the school year. I have 6 years of experience working with kids as a camp counselor and babysitter, including children with special needs. I am CPR and First Aid certified and have my own car. My focus is to provide a safe, routine-focused, and supportive space for your child where they will be able to learn and grow. I love crafts, baking, pretend play, encouraging independent time, and spending time outdoors. I am firm but kind and I approach childcare with empathy, patience, and respect. In my personal time, I enjoy trying new recipes, playing piano, reading, playing chess, and sewing. I look forward to meeting you!
