Hi! Iβm Anilah, a full-time college student studying sonography with plans to pursue neonatal nursing. Caring for others has always been a huge part of who I am, and working with children feels very natural to me. I grew up in a big family with three siblings, so Iβm patient, nurturing, and comfortable in busy households. I love doing creative activities like painting and crocheting with kids, and I always aim to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment. Iβm reliable, attentive, and truly enjoy helping families feel at ease knowing their children are well cared for. At this time, I am not comfortable driving due to a recent car accident (not at fault). I am happy to care for children in the home and am reliable with on-site responsibilities.

Hi, I'm Elizabeth! I have been babysitting for about six years now. During that time, l've cared for my younger sister, cousins, and family friends' children, which has given me hands-on experience with kids of different ages and needs.I was previously CPR and First Aid certified through ATEM and now perusing recertification, as safety is always my number one priority. I enjoy keeping kids engaged with fun activities, helping with homework if needed, preparing meals and keeping the space clean so we can continue to have fun in a safe environment.I truly enjoy building positive relationships with the kids I care for and creating a caring, comfortable atmosphere for them while their parents are away.
