About my self.
I love children, and would enjoy being a part of a family as a nanny/ or child care provider, I am reliable and have a kind loving personality, I can do activities and provide safe nurturing environment for all children I care for. I love communicating with the family,, which helps me effectively address any concerns or questions both with the children and their parents.
Above all, I genuinely love working with children and find great joy in being a positive influence in their lives. You can trust your children will receive the utmost attention, care, and support.
Im looking to spend my time doing somthing i truly love which is spending time with children. I am 18 years old and ever since I was young I took a liking to caring for kids. I was a lunch helper at age 9-11 to kindergartners in which I was trusted to watch a whole class by myself. I would help out in the special needs room and even went to special Olympics to help. I’ve babysat for family friends and have taken care of twins (one with high level autism). I have always been good with kids who need extra attention either needs wise, “anger issues” or just simply misunderstood by others. I wanna help kids experience kindness and love showing them it’s okay to be different and to be themselves.

Hi! My name is Raven, and I’m a caring, reliable, and patient sitter with a love for both children and animals. I enjoy creating a safe, fun, and comfortable environment where kids can feel happy and supported and pets feel loved and cared for. Whether it’s helping with routines, playing games, homework, walks, feeding, or cuddle time, I always aim to make families feel at ease knowing their loved ones are in good hands. I’m dependable, attentive, and passionate about providing trustworthy care you can count on!
Caring, Patient, Involved Babysitter/Petsitter Eager to Help Out
Hello! I'm Charlotte! I will always treat your children with patience, kindness, and a smile. With me, you can have someone you can count on to work as hard as I possibly can to make sure your children are happy and safe.
I have previous experience assisting with childcare at a summer camp. I planned out activities, helped other counsellors, and bonded with groups of children. I assisted with general chores and food. I also babysat my younger sibling and helped him with reading. My experience with animals and with retail have also honed my cleaning and organizing skills. My extensive animal care experience and experience of having both a dog and a cat are great if you have pets too! I am currently planning to retake a course to refresh my memory of First Aid / AED.
When it comes to helping with your kid(s), I prioritize your wishes first. I will consult you on what expectations you have of me to ensure a perfectly tailored experience that makes everyone happy. Each child is unique and I will work hard and listen to your wisdom on how I can best guide and support them as they flourish as people (and hopefully have fun in the process)! While I generally like to clearly understand the wishes of parents, I can also think quickly and exercise common sense when needed. I prefer to do live-out but have some flexibility. I can speak some rudimentary French, and am hoping to improve.
Currently, I am a 4th year University of Guelph BSc. student hoping to improve my childcare skills and challenge myself while also saving and investing for my future. This means I will have a University student schedule, but due to hard work in previous years I have a smaller course load now that I near graduation. This means I have more time and energy to give. You can expect the diligence and flexibility of someone able to and hoping to learn and grow. I am happy to answer any questions you have and work with you! I look forward to getting to know your family!
I'm looking for Casual/temporary, Part-time employment.
I can travel to neighboring suburbs/towns of Guelph for work.

I have worked with children as at a summer camp in the past. I planned out activities, helped other counsellors, and bonded with groups of children. I assisted with general chores and food. I also babysat my younger sibling and taught him how to read. I am a senior BSc student in Zoology at the University of Guelph and have prior experience both caring for pets (neighbours, my own) and more than exotic animals (zoo, wildlife rehab), meaning I can and want to care for all pets. I am currently planning on refreshing my First Aid / AED.
I am an experienced, mature and reliable child and pet carer. Available part time from November 2024-May/June 2025. Please reach out if you would like to discuss how I can help your family.
Hi! I’m a first-year university student studying psychology, and I absolutely love spending time with kids. I speak English and Urdu. I spent high school gaining experience working with kindergarteners in both regular and special education classrooms, and I’ve also helped out at summer camps with kids aged 6–12. I enjoy helping with activities, routines, and playtime, and I always try to make sure kids feel safe, happy, and engaged. I’m also happy to help with some housework or homework if needed.
I’d describe myself as caring, patient, and responsible, and I’m CPR trained. I’m happy to work with kids of any age that parents feel comfortable with.
Availability: I am available in the summer full time (from April - August).
Hi! My name is Evangeline / Eva, and I am a current grade 12 student, (17 years old) with 3 siblings and many cousins of all ages so I am very used to looking after kids! I am the eldest daughter so I am also used to doing lots of household chores, laundry etc.
My interests are things like dance, pilates, going to the gym and baking / cooking specifically sourdough bread!
Let me know if you are interested or needing help with your kiddos! I love caring for and playing with kids and look forward to hearing from you!
I have been doing babysitting for families for about three years now, and have lots of experience with kids / babies of all ages!
Also completed the Babysitting Certification Course

I am CPR certified and have extensive experience working with both children and animals. I’ve spent nearly two years as a camp counsellor, where I supervised and engaged with kids in a safe and supportive environment. In addition, I regularly volunteer at animal shelters, gaining hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. My background in childcare, combined with my passion for animals and safety training, makes me a responsible and reliable choice for both pet sitting and babysitting.
