Kind, calm care for your kids
Bella Babysits supports Mansfield families—with a focus on South Point—with in-home babysitting for ages 2–12 and pet care at your home. I get around on foot nearby and don't drive, so care stays at your house (no school or activity pickups).
Hi, I'm Bella
I'm a teenager offering babysitting over summer break to save for college. This isn't a big agency—it's just me, showing up prepared, on time, and ready to help your family feel supported.
I'm CPR and First Aid certified, and I focus on safe play, the routines you set, and clear communication with parents and guardians.
I love working with kids ages 2–12, and I'm also happy to help with pet sitting—walks, feeding, playtime, and keeping your pets comfortable while you're away. I provide care in your home, mainly for families in South Point, Mansfield, where I can walk between visits. I don't have a driver's license yet, so I can't offer pickups. If that fits your family, I'd love to hear what you need—childcare, pets, or both.

I keep my starting brackets simple and below full-time nanny pricing because this is neighborhood summer help.
