Hello! I am a Tacoma high school senior looking for some occasional babysitting work. I have been taking paid babysitting jobs for two children under 5 from a family friend over the past year and a half, but I have watched over my three younger cousins since I was 13. I also have been CPR and first aid certified since 2022. I am a National Honors Society tutor and AP/honors student, so I am willing to provide tutoring services in addition to light housework and meal preparation if requested.

Overall, I’m just hoping to gain more work experience and save for my education as I prepare to attend to college this fall. I will be attending Barnard College at Columbia University and hope to pursue medicine. My goal is to become an obstetrician/gynecologist, so working with families is something I am passionate about!

I am 15 years old and I attend Rogers High School. I am the oldest sibling in my family. I have been babysitting my cousins and my little brother for years and I would like to extend my efforts to help take care of someone else's child and get paid for it. This will allow me to save money to buy my own car and new drum equipment. I am passionate about drumming and my dream is to travel the world playing drums with a studio band.

while i have no professional childcare experience, i am often around my friends and babysit their little siblings. kids always tend to enjoy me. i know what its like to be a kid wanting attention, and so i do my best to accommodate for every child. i dont treat kids as lesser than me, just people with less experience in the world who need extra guidance. i have colorful hair, so children like to use their imagination to make sense of my hair, and i endorse it. im very patient, a quick problem solver, and i can bring many creative activities to the table. i can also cook and do some moderate cleaning if necessary, and i can help kids with their homework or help to tutor them on any topic. i have very flexible hours especially during the summer, i have reliable transportation, and i can bring common art or writing materials if necessary.

Hello, my name is Gabriela and I absolutely love kids and how their brains work. The brain is so cool, knowing that everything stems from childhood, the brain is an amazing tool. I'm going into social Service behavioral health work with children, so I've gained some experience from classes and being with kids. I've watched toddlers and older kids, I haven't done infants but I would be more than happy to watch over them. I am CPR certified and first aid certificated. I always want to be able to interact with kids on their own level and to make them feel like they are being understood. I try not to have kids constantly on the screen, if I can I love to interact and play with them. I can redirect kids very well if I need to. I'm very courageous and protective if I need to be. I take the needed precautions when I have a child that I am watching over. I always want info on the kids too and just the routines so that way I'm able to stick to them as much as you would like.
