For over 10 years, I have been dedicated to providing exceptional pet care. My philosophy is simple: prioritize your pet's comfort and happiness, treating them as if they were my own, while reinforcing positive behaviors. I maintain a clean and secure environment, cleaning up after any accidents, and I am vigilant in observing for any signs of distress. I always have emergency contact information readily available and communicate immediately with you about any concerns. Quick thinking and responsible decision-making are my priorities. I enjoy witnessing each pet's unique personality and ensuring they feel loved in their own environment, offering you peace of mind. I am punctual, responsible, and empathetic. I am also trained in CPR and First Aid. I am eager to help with your dogs and cats through pet sitting and walking!

As both a mother and former nanny, I understand the trust parents place in those who care for their children. I believe every child is a blessing and deserves patience, kindness, encouragement, and attentive care. Children are a blessing and a gift from God. I would love to be able to provide a safe, loving, and nurturing environment where children can feel cared for while their parents are away. My prior nanny experience •Cared for two young children, providing a safe, loving, and nurturing environment each day. •Planned fun, age-appropriate activities while managing meals, naps, and daily routines. •Assisted with diaper changes, feeding, potty training, and other daily care needs. •Kept play and living areas clean and organized •Maintained open communication with parents about schedules, milestones, and daily experiences. •Used patience, compassion, and good judgment to meet the children's individual needs. •Remained calm and attentive when handling unexpected situations. •Built strong, lasting relationships with the children and their family, creating bonds that continue to be meaningful in my life today. I would love to babysit your kids when needed! I do work at a church nursery on Sundays from 9am-12pm but am free after that. I also would love to help throughout the week. I do have a 2 year old child that I would have to bring with me unless it was after 5:30PM. I can also watch children in my home which is already baby proofed. I would of course let parents come and check everything out beforehand. Thank you!

From a young age, I have nurtured a deep affection for children. My extensive experience in childcare, spanning from infant to teenage years, has honed my abilities to work effectively with children of diverse ages and developmental stages. Throughout my career, I have consistently demonstrated reliability, dependability, and a positive attitude, qualities that would make me an invaluable asset to any childcare setting. Children are inherently joyful companions, and I find immense pleasure in their infectious laughter and playful antics.

Hi!! My name is Moriah, and I love working with kids. After completing four internships in classroom settings over the course of two years while also working with children at two Day Care Centers, I knew that babysitting was something I would have a passion for. Whether it’s partnering alongside toddlers who are beginning to take their first steps, multitasking between 7+ infants in one room, helping adolescents communicate their first few words, or even simply engaging with children through lessons and play, my priority is for your children to have fun while being supervised and safe. I would love to partner with your family by meeting your needs and requirements. I have experience in both large and small classroom settings from as much as 40+ kids to as tiny as 5 kids. I also volunteered as a Sunday School Teacher in multiple churches in Cleveland and the DMV area. Due to working two jobs, my current availability is Tuesday-Thursday from 4:30pm to 8:30pm and Saturday from 12:30pm-8:30pm.

I graduated in 2019 with a BA in French and Spanish. I am a very hardworking and caring individual and, I love children. I am very family oriented with a little brother of my own that I have cared for my entire life. He is like a son to me. Before leaving North Carolina where I attended school, I was working every day with children grades K-12 at an after-school program along with my studies and playing basketball. I currently babysit regularly for several local families. I have been working professionally in childcare since 2017, and babysitting since I was 16 years old. I have experience with working with children one on one and/or multiple children in a group setting, so babysitting multiple children is no problem for me. In addition to assisting the children with homework and other academic assignments, I was an art and language teacher at the after school program mentioned above, and a tutor as well. I still currently tutor. I would be willing to work with your child on those things while babysitting. I am CPR certified and have BLS training. I believe in being very active and hands-on with activities because that is the best way to learn and play ! General availability: weekends/evenings/nights

Hi! My name is Alissa, and I have a true passion for caring for children of all ages. I’ve spent years helping care for younger siblings, family members, and children in my community, and I love creating a safe, fun, and positive environment where kids can learn, play, and feel comfortable. Whether it’s arts and crafts, outdoor adventures, reading stories, helping with homework, or keeping little ones on a routine, I’m happy to adapt to each family’s needs. I am CPR and First Aid certified, dependable, patient, and always prioritize your child’s safety and well-being. I also don’t mind helping with light housekeeping, meal preparation, transportation, or caring for pets if needed. My goal is to give parents peace of mind while making sure their children are happy, engaged, and well cared for. I look forward to meeting your family!
