Ballast Point Babysitters

Hello, my name is Abby! I work 9-5, but I am available most weeknights and weekends! I am very passionate about children’s participation in sports. I coach a U10 lacrosse team and we have a ton of fun! I really enjoy hanging out with kids whether it's playing outdoors, reading books, or coloring. I have over 10 years of experience babysitting children of ages 0-13. I am a reliable, honest, friendly, kind, and respectful young lady whom you can trust to have a safe and fun time with your littles!! 🤗

Hey, parents! I’m Maria Clara, 27years old. I’m a former aupair. I’m bilingual, I speak Portuguese and English, currently I’m learning Spanish. I live in Hyde Park so I would love to babysit for families in the area.

As a mother of a 23-year-old son who recently left for college out of state, I’ve spent the last two decades fully immersed in the world of parenting, caregiving, and supporting children’s growth and development. Throughout my son’s childhood, I was the dedicated “team mom,” field trip chaperone, classroom volunteer, and enthusiastic attendee at every school event and activity. Before my son was born, and for several years afterward, I worked with both school-age children and daycare programs on military bases in Florida and New Mexico. Over the years, I’ve also provided babysitting care for friends and families who needed support, whether for work commitments or a well-deserved night out. As a parent, I understand how important routines, nutrition, and family preferences are. When my son was younger, I maintained a structured schedule and paid close attention to his dietary needs due to health considerations. I know that every child and every family is different, and I always strive to respect household routines, dietary restrictions, and parenting styles. I also believe that with a little creativity, kids can still have plenty of fun while staying within their family’s guidelines and preferences. One of the biggest lessons parenthood taught me is that while we can plan for everything, children often have plans of their own! I pride myself on staying calm, patient, and resourceful when unexpected situations arise. My goal is always to handle minor issues independently so parents can enjoy their time away with confidence and peace of mind. Of course, I also understand when a situation warrants reaching out, and I will always communicate when I believe a parent would want to be informed. I hold an undergraduate degree in Psychology with a particular interest in child and adolescent behavior and development. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children, engaging them in age-appropriate activities, encouraging their curiosity and creativity, and creating a safe, positive, and fun environment where they feel comfortable and supported.

Hi! My name is Tabitha and I am a new grad physical therapist! I love kids and I’ve been babysitting since before I was in high school! I also have been a youth dance and cheerleading instructor as well as a camp counselor! I look forward to meeting you and your family 😇

I have been babysitting since middle school, i have 5 younger siblings so it is just something I am used to. I love kids and love to play with them but i also know when it’s time to be responsible. I like to make music and be outside in my free time and I am a student at HCC. I worked at a daycare for a year and I absolutely loved it but I had to leave due to school :( While working there I got licensed in childcare and learned a lot about taking care of kids and being an aid in their development!
