I am looking for a babysitting job as I’m in college for elementary education. Currently I’m enrolled in high-school but I take college courses as I’ve completed all my credits and attend JSCC. I adore children and can’t wait to be a teacher one day! I’m looking to work with primarily children in elementary school but am open to maybe working with older children. I’m used to working with elementary school students or younger so I suppose I am a bit bias in that aspect. I love to play with them and have conversations about their day or their favorite things. It’s always very insightful and it warms my heart knowing that my presence makes a difference.

My skills and interests:

  • Singing
  • Reading / storytelling
  • Drawing / painting
  • Arts / crafts
  • Cooking
  • Writing

Top 10 Tips For Hiring A Valentine's Day Babysitter

Follow these handy tips for hiring a Valentine's Day babysitter so you can enjoy a romantic evening while knowing your kids are in safe hands.

1. Book early

Valentine’s Day is a high-demand night for babysitters, so secure someone well in advance.

2. Expect holiday rates

Babysitters often charge extra for special occasions, so budget for a premium.

3. Choose someone trusted

Go with a sitter your kids already know, or someone with strong references if it’s their first time.

4. Confirm late-night availability

Make sure the sitter is comfortable staying until your return, even if it’s late.

5. Share bedtime routines

Provide clear instructions for dinner, storytime, and bedtime so the evening runs smoothly.

6. Leave fun activities

Stock up on games, crafts, or a movie to keep the kids entertained while you’re out.

7. Plan a simple dinner for kids

Prepare or order something easy the babysitter can serve without stress.

8. Leave emergency contacts

Give them your number, backup contacts, and any medical details they might need.

9. Set house rules

Be clear on snacks, screen time, and bedtime flexibility.

10. Show appreciation

Since they’re working on a date night, consider a bonus, chocolates, or a thank-you note.
