I have been babysitting for well over 10 years, beginning in high school. I have experience with all ages, but the most experience with infant-2 years. I was a teacher in a learning center in the infant room for 2.5 years, have been a nanny for more than 6 families, all but one with an infant at start. I also have helped with my niece and nephews since they were newborns. I am adaptable, a quick learner, and able to multitask effortlessly. I believe that caregivers are a huge part of young children’s lives and can aid or deter development depending on the care given. I believe in teaching emotional regulation, working through big feelings together, and teaching positive morals and values to help young children grow, learn, and become the best versions of themselves.

I’d describe my personality as detail oriented, hard working, and someone who enjoys having fun! I like working with kids because I grew up with four younger sisters that I helped take care of and enjoy hanging out with and taking care of kids. I have been around kids of all ages my entire life. In my spare time, I like to hang out with friends, hang out with and walk my dog, read, and try cooking new recipes! I also work as a DSP and have 9 months of experience working with individuals with mental and learning disabilities. One thing you should know about me is that I grew up helping take care of me sisters and was homeschooled. I am currently a sophomore in college. I am also very detail oriented and am willing to learn!

Hi my name is Kaitlyn I'm 31 years old and I work as an LPN downtown. I started babysitting when I was in 7th grade and that was the only job I had throughout high school. I babysat 2 little boys every Wednesday and sometimes I would come over on the weekends if I was needed. I have 2 baby nephews that I watch so I am still around children a lot helping out with whatever my sister needs help with. I grew up with a variety of animals from birds, fish, dogs, cats, hamsters, turkeys, ducks, frogs, crawfish, sea monkeys, etc. I love animal all of gods creatures deserve love even spiders. My mother worked at the Animal Humane Society when I was growing up and so not only did we have a variety of pets at home that we cared for, but we would also go to her work and volunteer and take care of the animals there as well. I also spent a lot of time with my grandmother when I was growing up so I would help her a lot and then eventually when I went to college I got my CNA license and throughout college the only places I worked were assisted living places and also in the memory care area. Flexible to discuss the pay rate and hours.

I absolutely love kids! I’m a mom of 4 and a former teacher, principal, and superintendent. Patience and compassion are my strengths, while still maintaining control through calm. I savor time spent with kids of all ages, with babies being the sweetest. I also enjoy spending time with and taking care of toddlers all the way to teenagers. Yes, I said teenagers! I have a way of connecting with them and building appropriate relationships. In addition to caring for kids, I can help with homework. My teaching experience is in middle and high school English Language Arts, Math, Biology, and Science. My tutoring experience is in all the age groups with an obvious focus on the areas I’ve taught. Other than the content, one of my strengths while teaching was in classroom management, because I have the ability to use expectations, logical consequences, and relationships to impact student behaviors. And one of the most effective and compassionate, yet effective ways of managing inappropriate behaviors is through using Restorative Practices. I have many years of experience addressing child behavior this way and helping people, both kids and adults through conflict using this approach.

Experienced, Caring Babysitter with a Lifelong Love for Kids and Pets Hi there! My name is [Your Name], and I’ve been caring for kids since I was 11 years old—starting out as a neighborhood babysitter for families with little ones ranging from 6 months to 5 years old. I’ve looked after up to 3 children at a time and continued babysitting consistently through high school, always enjoying the energy, imagination, and honesty kids bring to life. After high school, I spent my summers as an overnight summer camp counselor—building on my skills in responsibility, safety, and creating fun, memorable experiences for children. During college, I continued to babysit on and off, maintaining that special connection to helping families and engaging with kids of all ages. I also absolutely love animals! I grew up with large-breed dogs like Labs and Golden Retrievers and now have a few four-legged (and scaly!) family members of my own. My first pet as an adult was a bearded dragon named Harold—he’s 14 now and still going strong! I’ve also had two amazing dogs: Gus, a French Bulldog who was perfect in every mischievous way, and Finley, a fun-loving Boxer who’s a proud toy destroyer, a dog’s dog, and a world-class snuggler. Whether you need a reliable sitter for your kids, someone who’s great with pets, or both—I’m here to help with warmth, patience, and a great sense of humor. I’d love to learn more about your family and how I can support you!
