Welcome message:

Hi! My name is Alexus Mann, I’m 16 years old, and I live in Lawrenceville, GA. I have experience babysitting and truly enjoy working with kids. I’m responsible, patient, and always bring a positive attitude. I’ve been a member of FCCLA, a leadership-based club, since I started high school, and I’m active in drama club and will be joining my school’s musical theatre program next year. I love storytelling, playing games, and finding creative ways to keep kids engaged and happy.

I’m also really excited to share that I’m now CPR and First Aid certified! I’ve always taken babysitting seriously, and being officially trained means even more peace of mind for the families I work with. Safety, kindness, and fun are always my top priorities.

If you're looking for a dependable babysitter in the Lawrenceville area, I’d love to help and if you know other parents who might need a sitter, I’d really appreciate you passing my name along. Thank you for considering me!

Hi families,

my name is Savannah, I am a nineteen-year-old currently in school for pediatric sonography with a minor in early childhood development. I started babysitting at the age of 12 in the old neighborhood where I used to live, for families around me, until I was 14, when I moved to a different area. I started again when I was 16, for different families in my area and some family friends, until I graduated high school at 18. I see childcare as an opportunity to make a fun and exciting experience for the child whenever I watch over them. I enjoy interacting and entertaining young children, as I have a passion to pursue a career involving them. Children are the future, and their early childhood experiences mold them into whoever they become as adults. Having the chance to be a part of that brings me so much joy! It would be a pleasure to be considered for a childcare position for your family.

My skills and interests:

  • Reading / storytelling
  • Arts / crafts
  • Cooking
