Hi! I’m a 20-year-old college student with 4 years of babysitting experience and lots of happy kids (and parents!). I love keeping children engaged, entertained, and cared for in a safe and positive environment. Growing up with busy, working parents taught me how important dependable help can be, and I truly enjoy being that support for families. When I’m not babysitting or studying for my radiology program, I love horseback riding, trying new foods, shopping with friends, and getting creative with crafts like Legos and diamond painting.

Hi! I’ve been babysitting for about 5 years and was a nanny for a family with three boys from 2024–2026 during the school years while I was in highschool and this past summer. I’m very comfortable handling busy households and keeping kids on a good routine while still making sure they have fun.With the boys, I made meals and snacks, helped with homework, drove them to sports practices and activities, planned fun day trips, and handled the full bedtime routine. I’m used to juggling different ages and personalities, and I always try to create a positive, active, and supportive environment.I’m reliable, patient, and hands-on. Whether it’s playing outside with the kids, helping with schoolwork, or keeping things calm and organized at night, I’m happy to jump in wherever needed!

Hi! I’m Laila, a college student at Xavier University of Louisiana, but I'm originally from California. I love working with children and their energy always brightens my day. Whether we’re doing arts and crafts, playing outside, baking cookies, or having an impromptu dance party in the living room. I create a space where kids feel safe, heard, and excited to learn. I am the older sister in my family, so I’ve had plenty of practice keeping kids entertained and happy. Your children’s safety and comfort are my top priority.

Hey parents! My name is Jaelin whittaker, I’m 22 years old. I have around 6 plus years of experience working in a daycare, but I’ve been babysitting for around 11 years caring for children ages Newborns to 13 years old. I also attend Xavier university majoring in biology pre medicine. In the summer time I work as a Nursing assistant at a hospital in Alabama. In my free time on Sundays I volunteer at my local church taking care of kids ages 6 weeks to 4 years old (just depends what class room I’m in 😊) I look forward to possibly watching your little one. Thanks!!
