Reliable Care for Your Little Ones — Pets & Kids

Hi, my name is Maia and I’m a responsible 16-year-old with a genuine love for both children and animals.

I can also assist with simple medication (oral, as instructed by owners).

Families can trust me to be punctual, attentive, and caring, whether it’s keeping pets happy and comfortable or providing safe babysitting. I understand how important it is to have someone dependable looking after the ones you love, and I take that responsibility seriously.

Kind, Caring, Loving, Friendly

Hi All,

My name is Abby, I am 24, Christchurch born and raised, experienced with hands on care.

It is in my nature to be a carer for all! Whether that be children, teens, adults, elder or animals (anyone or anything in need of love, care and reassurance). My goal is always to ensure the best for all.

I have such a positive, calm, kind, caring energy that projects to all those around.

I have experience with children and looking after them.

I have done all sorts, whether it be just helping keep an eye on the little ones & putting them to bed, to preparing and cooking meals. To taking to school, events, extra-curricular activities.

I also have a lot of experience in cleaning, house work, clearing and helping get homes back into organised matters.

I have always had some kind of animal in my life, dogs, cats, fish. I have been a reliable dog walker, trainer and carer. Many people leave the responsibility of caring for their own pet whwn away whether it be house visiting or overnight stays.

Activity summary

Welcome message:

Hi I’m Zara, I’m 17 and currently in my last two years of high school and I would love to baby/pet sit for you. I love to paint and create different art and craft projects, bake and anything science related whether that be trailing experiments or simply reading research. This means a child who is creative or interested in learning new things is a great fit. I am on the reserved side but I have a lot of patience and love to have a laugh. I also have a lot of experience with shy and anxious kids as well as kids who may be neurodivergent.

I look forward to hearing from you, Zara

Need help with your busy days? I am here to help!!

Kia ora,

I am Irushi Jalangana, a year 13 student at Christchurch Girls High School. My mom identifies me as a confident, outgoing and responsible girl and my friends identify me as an over- caring and trustworthy companion. I have always had a goal to work with children and work towards being a paediatrician one day. I currently work casually in hospitality during the weekends and am finding something to do during the rest of my time including weekdays and the weekends when I am free. It would be a great privilege for me to care for your beautiful little children as it will allow me to gain more experience towards my future goals as well.

From where I grew up I was always taught to help people even if I have nothing left at the end to see a sparkling smile on someone else and this soon became my hobby. Taking this into mind, I am positive that I will be able to be a huge support to the best of my ability whether it be caring for your child or taking your pet to get some fresh air.
