The older sister who knows how to have fun (and how to get them to listen lol)
I absolutely adore working with children! I love that I can still tap into my own inner child while spending time with them. Kids are so incredibly cute and full of wonder. As the older sister of two, I've always been cautious and observant, ensuring their safety and well-being. I find their unique personalities and outspoken nature incredibly entertaining – they truly have been the funniest people I know!

Babysitter, Parent helper, Nanny, Au pair $35 / hour
I am a 22 year old female and I am always at home. I have an 1 year old daughter that I take very good care of and I know I will be able to take care of another child just the same. Since I have this much time on my hands I am willing to help another mother or father with their child for at least $19 hour. We can look into this price if need be. My records are very clean and I will provide any proof that you need. Talk to you soon
