A little bit about me

My name is Karson, and I am looking for summer babysitting/nanny jobs. I am currently a second-year student at Point Park University and will be home for the summer starting June 15th. I am studying to get my BFA in dance and my master's in K-12 education. Working with kids is truly my passion! My experience includes years of nannying, dog/house sitting, teaching dance, and camp counseling at summer camps. I've nannied one family on and off for about four years and have done some freelance babysitting as well. I started as a volunteer dance teacher in 2022 and became a summer dance teacher for Elevate Performing Arts Center in 2025. I also spent one summer as a camp counselor at Inspiration Academy of Dance in 2022. Not only will I keep your children entertained, but I will also make sure to keep them active and safe! Please message me for my resume or any questions you might have!

A little bit about me

I am 15 and I’m trying to get a job. I have been trying for a while but it’s hard to find any that hire at 15. I have always been good taking care of kids and i often cook and clean for my parents and siblings. I am not super talkative but i will talk and I’m a great listener. I always make sure everyone around me is doing okay even when being overwhelmed, mad, or sad. I always feel happy to help people because I know everything has something. I will be able to get my mother drop me off and eventually I will be able to drive. I have always learned to be respectful of my environment, to clean up after myself and others, and I am a pretty good cleaner 🙂. I will be sure be careful, kind, and towards your kids because I know my mom would feel If they had a bad babysitter for her kids. I am a very soft-hearted person. I am strong enough and mature enough to take care of your kids safely and responsibly and I know that I can be the best, fun, and playful babysitter.

I am a calm natured and respectful. I treat little ones just as they are-human I am big on treating kids with respect and compassion because I remember how it felt to be a kid too haha. I have taken a first aid and CPR class back in Texas and am confident in my ability to provide care in case of an emergency. I am very cautious and want to be aware of any allergies or health conditions at all times. I hope I can be of assistance to you and your family:)

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Milania, a responsible and caring 19-year-old who absolutely loves working with kids. While I may not have professional nannying experience just yet, I’ve spent years babysitting for family and friends, and it’s something that comes naturally to me. I’ve cared for children of different ages, and I always do my best to create a safe, fun, and loving environment for them. I’m starting college soon and looking to work with a family who needs someone reliable, patient, and genuinely kind. I’m more than happy to help with meals, playtime, bedtime routines, or just being a steady presence when you need it most. I treat every child like family, and I’d be honored to be someone you can trust. I bring a calm and compassionate presence into the home, and I always prioritize safety, trust, and fun. I’m also highly reliable, communicative, and adaptable to each family’s unique needs and routines.
