Hi, my name is Shaniah i’ve been a babysitter since the age of 15 & have helped raise all of my siblings, so i pride myself on being able to easily connect with children. I am a very responsible, punctual person that follows instructions without any problem and who is always aware of the time for the different activities that I must do with the kids (play time, study time, dinner time, and bedtime). The children respect my authority and consider me as part of their family. You can be sure that your kids will be in the best hands with me, a responsible and integral person.

Hi, I’m Erika! I’ve been babysitting for more than 4 years, I’m CPR/AED & first aid certified and have completed my early childhood development certification with DCF. I’m comfortable cooking, helping with chores and homework. During high school I took medical classes and early childhood. I’ve learned how to make age appropriate lessons for children through my DCF certification, so I’m familiar with learning activities. Outside of babysitting I pet sit so I’m comfortable around animals! A few things about myself, I enjoy crafting/scrapbooking, going to the beach or walking the lake, baking/cooking, shopping and traveling! Some of my favorite activities to do with the kids I babysit are going to the park, reading, crafts and creative play. Hoping to meet you and your family soon!

Vanessa J.
- 8 years paid experience
- 15 miles
Hi there! I’m Vanessa, though most kids call me “Nessa.” I’m 27 years old and have a true passion for working with children of all ages. Whether it’s for a date night or regular care, I bring years of experience as both a nanny and babysitter through various childcare companies, along with hands-on experience in daycare settings and as a substitute teacher. I originally began my studies in Elementary Education, but quickly realized I thrive most in smaller, more personal environments where I can provide individualized care, attention, and support to each child. I currently work as a Registered Behavioral Technician (RBT), where I have the privilege of supporting children with disabilities by focusing on behavioral goals, developmental progress, and emotional support in a compassionate and nurturing way. I’m known for being patient, creative, detail-oriented, and someone who truly values transparency and communication with families. I also love incorporating arts & crafts, engaging activities, and positive experiences into the time I spend with children. I would love the opportunity to get to know your little ones and become a positive, dependable part of their lives. Please feel free to message me with any questions or if you’d like references!

Wedeline has been wonderful with our kids, and we truly appreciate the care and attention she gives them every time she babysits. She is patient, kind, and attentive, and she makes sure our children feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. She takes the time to interact with them, keep them engaged, and give each of them the attention they need. As parents, having someone we trust with our children means everything. Wedeline gives us peace of mind knowing our kids are in caring and capable hands while we’re away. We appreciate how thoughtful she is and the effort she puts into making each experience a positive one for our family. We’re grateful to have her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring babysitter!

She is a very sweet and down to earth woman. She gives NANA vibes and I felt like she was watching my kids more out of love than money. I will definitely be using her again!
Ash M.

I have over 10 years of hands-on experience working with children of all ages, and caring for kids is something I genuinely love and take seriously. I’ve worked in classroom settings as well as one-on-one with families, which has given me a strong foundation in child development, emotional regulation, and age-appropriate care. My background includes Montessori, PBS, and HighScope-based approaches, and I’m very comfortable with daily routines like diapering, meal prep, nap schedules, homework help, and engaging play. I’m especially attentive to creating a calm, safe, and supportive environment where children feel seen, respected, and secure. I’m patient, dependable, and highly observant—whether that means picking up on a child’s emotional needs, following family preferences closely, or adapting to different personalities and routines. I also have experience supporting children with special needs and understand the importance of consistency, clear communication, and compassion. Families often describe me as nurturing, reliable, and easy to communicate with. I take pride in being someone parents can trust and kids feel comfortable with.
