Babysitting and light housekeeping Job application.
| My name is Toluwalope. I am a student here in Canada attending University. I am from Nigeria and migrated to Canada. I am a very loving, kind, patient and caring person. I have a lot of experience with children and love being around children, I have volunteered in the children’s department at church and volunteered at black stone foundation for a Child’s program called seeds of wisdom, where we created both fun and creative activities for the children that improved their imagination and thinking capabilities as well as their ability to have fun, enjoy themselves and relate with other children. I also helped in light meal prep, cleaning up tables and clearing floors. I have 4 years of experience babysitting and I have been babysitting for families here on Care.com. I usually babysit on occasions but I am looking for a more regular babysitting at evenings and night time, I am skilled in reading stories to children and putting them to bed, I enjoy reading so I read to pass time while frequently checking on children as they sleep. I have good references and reviews. Thank you as you kindly consider my Job application.
Tolu genuinely loves kids and brought such a positive presence in our home. She was playful and active with our 10 month old and helpful with household chores while the baby was sleeping. She is communicative and had a great attitude to do whatever we asked her to do!"

Loving and Firm babysitter
| Hello! My name is Demi. I moved to Mississauga from Singapore in 2014. I spent time teaching preschoolers at a reputable tuition centre in Singapore and I loved every minute of my job. I wish I didn't have to leave it, but I had to relocate with my husband who got into school/work here in Canada. I am a certified babysitter with a clean background. To me, interacting with children has got to be one of life's greatest joys. When I was teaching, I enjoyed challenging their simple but inquisitive minds. I learnt a lot while on the job - dealing with tantrum-throwing children; how to allow them to make their own decisions while under some restrictions set by me; reminding them to say their "please's" and "thank you's" no matter what; and how verbal encouragement can help a child's motivation and learning capabilities by leaps and bounds. When I get to know your kids a little better, I can introduce some worksheets to them that will stimulate their minds while I'm with them. These worksheets are used to train their motor skills as well as to expand their general knowledge. Please feel free to ask me anything. I will be happy to answer!
From what I have seen and experienced Demi is caring, honest, empathetic, dedicated and a responsible person. Demi is pleasant to be around because she has a positive attitude that can make work fun and interesting. I have found that Demi is reliable, hardworking and trustworthy. I would not hesitate to entrust her to any job required. Sincerely, Anna"

Very caring and reliable occasional babysitter with many years of experience.
| I have many years of experience with babysitting kids. I started as a teen and have worked in daycares, day camps, as a kindergarten assistant and more. I love kids and enjoy doing activities with them - i.e. crafts, games, jigsaw puzzles, reading books, playing outside, etc. I have my own car and am willing to travel to a job. I would love to meet your family, pets included, so please feel free to get in touch with me! Cathy
We just returned from a week-long trip. Cathy cared for our two cats. We missed them while away but felt so good knowing they were being well cared for. Cathy came daily, ensuring they were well provided for. She sent us email updates with pictures. One of our cats loves lap cuddles with a specific blanket - Cathy was happy to oblige! We will not hesitate to have Cathy care for our feline family for future trips."

Fun Responsible loving nanny/babysitter
| If your children enjoy: Singing fun summer camp songs, reading awesome adventure books, telling funny bedtime stories, playing pretend and hide and go seek. Then I am the right babysitter for your family. I am from Honolulu HI, currently living in Vancouver, BC. I am a third-year student at UBC studying botany. I love doing anything and everything outdoors. I am very responsible and have cared for my brother for multiple days at a time since he was 2 years old. I have also been a consistent babysitter for 1-5-year-old children for about 7 years now. I am a good cook and I don’t mind cleaning and pet care as well. I really love being around children and they love me too! **Also, I am fully vaccinated!!
I'm so glad I found Natalia through Care.com! She's been an absolute savior thus far for me as she's been able to handle my kids overnight allowing my husband and I to take a much needed break. We always feel safe and secure when leaving her to watch our kids as she is always very cordial, easy to communicate with and understanding of our needs and concerns. She takes the position with a certain level of responsibility and respect, which I am so happy and relieved about as it allows us ease our worries and relax while we are away. I would more than recommend Natalia to anyone in need of a sitter. Go ahead and give her a shout, You will not regret it!"
