Find a babysitter in South Saint Paul, MN

Hi! I'm a current Macalester College Spanish and Sociology major who is passionate about working with kids. I have 4 years of experience as a summer camp counselor and one year of experience in after-school programming. My background has given me extensive practice coming up with engaging, creative, and educational activities for kids of all ages. I have received extensive safety and childcare training, including CPR and First Aid. I love cooking and baking and know how to teach age-appropriate food-safety skills to cook with kids. I grew up with food allergies, so I know how to take the best precautions to help kids with dietary restrictions. Another passion of mine is helping kids explore the world outside-- this fall, I'm taking a course specifically on Outdoor Environmental Education, so I have lots of new activities to try out!

I'm passionate about fostering children's growth and development. I chose this profession because I want to make a positive impact on their lives and support families by providing reliable child care. My formal and reserved nature complements my patient and calm demeanor, making me a comforting presence for children. I value open communication with parents and tailor my approach to their preferred methods. I ensure household rules are followed while prioritizing the parents' lead. I enjoy sensory and art activities that spark a child's creativity and individualism. I have a total of about 7 years of experience working in childcare centers, multiple different school districts and school programs. I'm ready to bring my enthusiasm and dedication to caring for your child. I am available to care for one child, aged 0 to 11 months old. I look forward to meeting you and your family.

Experienced nanny and foster parent. I love the little ones, but would consider older children for the right family. My goal is to exceed expectations. You are leaving your home and children with another and both should be well cared for when you return. I am attentive, empathetic, and conscientious. I have extensive experience with infants and toddlers. I have also provided care for children up to age 18. I aim to provide a service that benefits the whole family: nurtured children, a tidy house, and parents who feel good about leaving their children in my care. I value good communication - and trust that is earned over time and goes both ways. If you are looking for childcare that really adds value to your family life I may be just the lady for you.

I am currently a senior at the University of St. Thomas, majoring in Business Administration and minoring in Leadership and Management. I am 21 years old and have been working with children since I was 14. I started as a gymnastics coach, where I have worked with children of many different ages and personalities. This experience has taught me how to be patient, responsible, encouraging, and adaptable while still making sure kids are having fun. I currently nanny and babysit for three families, mainly for occasional date nights, and I am looking for opportunities to help families more regularly when needed. I have also worked with younger children at the USA Cup and have experience caring for my younger brother as he grew up. I genuinely enjoy working with kids and helping make parents' lives a little easier. When I am with kids, I love finding ways to keep them active and entertained rather than just sitting around. I enjoy arts and crafts, creating fun games and activities, playing outside, taking kids to their favorite places, driving them to activities, and supporting them at their sporting events. I have a sports background myself, so I especially enjoy working with active kids and families. I am a very patient, creative, bubbly, and caring person. I also understand that being a caregiver means taking responsibility for more than just watching the kids. I always clean up after activities and meals and try to leave the home even better than I found it. I am happy to help with household tasks when needed and want parents to feel like they can rely on me. I am also very comfortable caring for pets. I have a cat of my own that I love, two dogs at my mom's house, and I have cared for pets while nannying for families in the past. I am both a cat and dog lover and am happy to help with feeding, playing, walks, and general pet care. Overall, I would describe myself as dependable, energetic, organized, and someone who truly enjoys helping others. My years of experience working with children, along with my leadership background and outgoing personality, allow me to create a safe, positive, and fun environment for the families I work with.
