Making Memories with Every Sit

Hi there! I'm Danae, a psychology student with a lifelong passion for working with children. You could say caring for kids is in my blood as the oldest in my generation, I've been a 'built-in babysitter' since I was young! From changing diapers and soothing fussy babies to playing games and helping with homework, I've pretty much done it all.

Right now, I'm helping my dad care for my two adorable baby sisters. I've also had the privilege of caring for my three cousins who have autism, which has taught me patience, understanding, and the importance of adapting to each child's unique needs.

While I may not have professional babysitting experience, my family life has given me the best training possible! I'm energetic, responsible, and genuinely love spending time with children. I'm also CPR and First Aid certified for your peace of mind.

I'm currently looking for a part-time babysitting job to help with my school expenses. My base rate is $22-25/hour.

If you're looking for a caring, reliable, and experienced babysitter who truly enjoys being around kids, I'd love to hear from you!

Custom care to meet your needs even full weekend/overnights care

Hello I have over 30 years caregiver experience caring for children, elderly, disabled kids and adults plus pets normally cats and dogs. I enjoy cooking healthy meals and snacks and also cleaning up any messes that are made to keep up a tidy environment. I like doing art, painting, reading swimming at the YMCA. I like to engage whom ever I'm talking care of in those activities if they are allowed and interested. Please reach out if you think I will be a good fit for your needs. Thanks

Why hire a babysitter

In this section we look at what services babysitters typically provide, how they're different to other carers, and the many benefits your family can enjoy when hiring a babysitter.

When to hire a babysitter

Every family is different and so are the requirements for hiring a babysitter. In this section, we explore the many factors that can influence when, and how often, you choose to hire a babysitter so you can have a better idea of what may be best for your family.

How to find a good babysitter

Often the biggest challenge with hiring a babysitter is finding good candidates, to begin with. In this section, we reveal many secrets that you can use to attract the best local babysitters, we also explore alternatives to hiring babysitters that you may not have considered.

What makes a good babysitter

How to vet babysitting candidates

Once you have a shortlist of the best babysitters you can find, the next step is to vet them further to make sure they are who they say they are and the skills and qualifications they claim to have are valid. Follow our guides on checking babysitter references and running background checks.

Babysitting job expectations
