Hey! My name is Hadassa and I am currently a first year student at the University of Ottawa. I’m from a London Ontario and am currently working towards my bachelors degree in health sciences. I’ve had the privilege of staying with one family long-term (I would commute), watching their children grow and even welcoming new additions to their family! Coming from an immigrant household as the eldest daughter, I naturally stepped into a maternal role, especially with my younger siblings. My parents always say I have a knack for connecting with kids, and I truly believe that too. I’m warm, caring, and genuinely love fostering safe, happy environments for kids to learn and grow. I also love watching kids shows😭and not jokingly, I genuinely enjoy them! My favourite these days is Sofia the First. I babysat for a couple for 4 years! Started off with one child and it turned into two halfway through. For a while they were a toddler and an infant. I can handle quite a lot😅

Part-Time • Live-Out
Growing up in India as an only child within a large joint family environment was both a deeply enriching and formative experience. In line with traditional Indian family structures, our home was a lively and close-knit setting filled with shared responsibilities, a strong sense of community, and a dynamic mix of ages. Living alongside extended family fostered my adaptability and nurtured my sense of empathy from a young age. My two younger cousins, who were an integral part of our household, gave me an early opportunity to play the role of a big sister, looking out for them and providing care when needed. This experience encouraged me to develop patience, responsibility, and a strong nurturing instinct—qualities that I find crucial in caregiving roles. As my cousins and I grew, our families eventually transitioned to individual households, a change that brought both a shift in family dynamics and an opportunity for personal growth. This shift allowed me to develop a strong sense of individuality while still maintaining close family bonds. I learned to balance my supportive role within the family with growing independence, a quality that has continued to serve me well in professional and caregiving settings alike. This background has made me both adaptable and intuitive, able to respond to diverse family needs with ease while fostering an environment that respects personal growth and individual preferences. My professional journey has also shaped my approach to caregiving. With a background in psychology, predominantly in mental health, I have developed a solid foundation in understanding emotional well-being and behavioral development. My work as a psychologist allowed me to engage deeply with individuals, understand their needs, and address various challenges compassionately and constructively. Holding an MSc in Forensic Psychology from the University of London, I have honed skills in observation, empathy, and structured care—qualities that are integral in supporting and understanding children’s needs at various developmental stages. Presently, as I prepare for a doctorate in forensic psychology, I bring a level of dedication and focus to each role I take on, which I believe would benefit families seeking a reliable, understanding, and adaptable caregiver. Having cared for a young girl during the pandemic, where I managed her needs, I understand the importance of creating a structured yet flexible routine that adapts to the child’s individual preferences and the family’s values. This role reinforced my skills in planning and patience, and the experience strengthened my belief in creating supportive and safe environments for children, especially during times of change. Being new to the city and open to new opportunities, I am enthusiastic about bringing my unique background to a role in childcare. With a blend of structured caregiving, educational support, and psychological insight, I aim to contribute to an environment that promotes both care and personal growth for children in meaningful, engaging ways. I had the privilege of caring for a young girl during her formative years, supporting her academically, physically, and emotionally through a pivotal period in her life. This experience allowed me to contribute meaningfully to her development and well-being while also building valuable skills in caregiving, educational support, and child-centered routine management. During the pandemic, my role involved overseeing her daily tutoring and managing her online learning to ensure her educational needs were consistently met. Remote learning presented unique challenges, requiring a proactive approach to keep her engaged and motivated. Each day, I guided her through core subjects, facilitated virtual lessons, and designed enrichment activities that promoted critical thinking and creativity. These learning activities helped her stay curious and positive, making learning an enjoyable experience despite the circumstances. Additionally, I was responsible for her nutritional needs, handling meal planning and preparation to provide balanced, appealing meals that fostered healthy habits. To further her understanding, I introduced basic dietary principles, empowering her to make informed choices about her diet. I also prioritized her physical activity, ensuring she had daily opportunities to exercise through activities like outdoor play, bike rides, and nature walks. These routines not only supported her physical health and motor skills development but also helped her maintain an active lifestyle. Supporting her emotional well-being was another essential part of my caregiving role. I maintained a structured daily schedule to provide stability and create a nurturing environment where she felt safe to express her thoughts and feelings. Recognizing the effects of isolation, I encouraged virtual playdates and interactive activities that allowed her to connect with friends and family, promoting her social skills and helping her sustain meaningful relationships. In addition to these responsibilities, I encouraged her to develop age-appropriate independence by introducing simple tasks, such as organizing her school materials or setting up her own workspace. These tasks helped foster her sense of autonomy and responsibility. This experience has equipped me with a well-rounded skill set in child caregiving, academic support, and family-centered care. As I prepare for my doctorate in forensic psychology, I am eager to bring these caregiving skills into a part-time babysitting role. This opportunity allows me to support young children in a way that emphasizes safety, enrichment, and well-being, reinforcing my commitment to nurturing healthy development in diverse settings.

Gatineau, QCʉۢ 3 km away
Full-Time, Part-Time • Live-Out
My name is Francesca and I'm a third-year student at the University of Ottawa, majoring in interdisciplinary studies. Currently residing in Gatineau, my life outside of university has been almost devoted to childcare for the past 4 years. My experience ranges from looking after newborns to children aged 10 and above. I have assisted in the nurturing of a newborn for a year and also had the opportunity to babysit a 6-year-old for three years. It doesn't stop there, occasionally, I take up short-term babysitting assignments that have often involved managing up to four children at a time in the absence of the parents. Along with the core responsibility of looking after the kids, I do not shy away from house chores. Whether it's doing the laundry, making a meal, running errands, keeping the kitchen tidy, or even doing some grocery shopping, I'm your girl. I am also comfortable providing transport for children including handling school pick ups and drop offs. As for my availability, I am fairly flexible, ready to offer my services on all days of the week, mainly during the mornings till the evening. On the education front, I have undergone First Aid and CPR training which I believe are essential skills for anyone working closely with children. In addition, I am fluent in English and French, a non-smoker, and have a clean police check. Although I am unable to relocate, I am willing to travel and have a driver's license along with my own vehicle which I can use on the job. However, I must note, I prefer a Live-Out employment arrangement. So, if you're in need of a Nanny, Nanny/Tutor, Nanny/Housekeeper, or a Babysitter either on a full-time or part-time basis, please feel free to reach out to me. It will be my absolute pleasure to bring my caring, interactive, and responsible nature to ensure your children are safe and nurtured while you're away. I have 4 years of babysitting experience: I helped take care of a newborn for a year. I was a babysitter for a 6-year-old for 3 years. From time to time, I would also take on some babysitting/nanny gigs that weren’t permanent. I’ve successfully cared for four children at once while the parents were away. I’m a third year student at University of Ottawa studying interdisciplinary studies
