Hey I’m Angie ready to take care of your kids and walk your pets :)

Je m’appelle Angie, j’ai 17 ans et bien que je n’aie pas encore d’expérience professionnelle en baby-sitting, je suis une personne sérieuse, responsable et prête à bien m’occuper de vos enfants. J’adore passer du temps avec les enfants, et je suis également capable de les aider avec leurs devoirs, de préparer des repas simples et sains, ainsi que de jouer à des jeux ou faire des activités sportives avec eux. Je peux également m’occuper des petits animaux en l’occurrence les chiens et chats et offrir un service de promenade pour les animaux.

Je suis dynamique, patiente, et j’ai envie de créer un environnement à la fois amusant et sécurisé pour les enfants. Je suis disponible en semaine ainsi que le weekend et prête à m’adapter à vos besoins.

N’hésitez pas à me contacter pour en discuter davantage !

Fun, Trustworthy & Patient – You Are in Good Hands!

Hi, I’m Maïté, a freshly graduated 17-year-old with a passion for making life easier for busy families. Childcare: I’ve been the built-in babysitter for my little brother since age 12, and I hold a certified babysitting diploma that covered safety, first aid basics, and creative activity planning. Pet care: From energetic dogs to shy cats, I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping routines steady so your furry friends feel relaxed while you’re away. Elder support: I provide friendly companionship, light meal prep, reminder calls, and errands—bringing patience, respect, and a listening ear to every visit. I’m calm under pressure, detail-oriented, and genuinely enjoy helping others—traits that steer me toward future studies in education or healthcare. Whether you need a reliable sitter for a Saturday night, someone to keep your pets happy during a long workday, or extra support for an older relative, I’m ready to step in with care and a smile. Let’s chat about how I can help your household run smoothly! ?

I’m a responsible and caring 17-year-old who just graduated from secondary school. I have several years of informal childcare experience, especially from regularly babysitting my younger brother since I was 12. I also completed a certified babysitting course, where I learned about child safety, basic first aid, and age-appropriate activities. I plan to pursue a career in teaching or healthcare because I truly enjoy working with children and supporting their growth. I’m patient, attentive, and always aim to create a fun, safe, and trusting environment for kids.

Top 10 Tips For Hiring A Wedding Babysitter

Follow these handy tips for hiring a wedding babysitter to make sure the little guests are happy and the adults can celebrate stress-free.

1. Hire early

Secure babysitters well in advance, as weddings often fall on busy weekends.

2. Check experience

Choose sitters with proven childcare experience, ideally with multiple children and event settings.

3. Run background checks

Verify references, qualifications, and certifications (like CPR and first aid). See our guides for more information:

4. Ask about ratios

Make sure there are enough sitters for the number and ages of children attending. You may need to hire multiple wedding babysitters.

5. Clarify duties

Define whether babysitters are supervising during the ceremony, reception, or in a separate childcare room.

6. Provide entertainment
