Hi my name is Laura Please consider me for your needs. I have had plenty of experience with my 2 children 7 grand children and nieces and nephew. I also am great.
As a mother of four sons, with two still at home, I understand the patience, love, and dedication it takes to care for children of all ages. Raising my boys has been the most rewarding experience of my life, and I truly enjoy watching children grow, learn, and gain confidence. I am a dependable, caring, and nurturing caregiver who creates a safe, fun, and supportive environment. Whether it's helping with homework, planning engaging activities, driving children to school, playdates, or sporting events, or simply being a positive and reliable presence, I'm happy to support your family's needs. I believe every child deserves encouragement, kindness, and someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with them. I look forward to building a trusting relationship with your family and providing the same level of care I have always given my own children.
Hi! My name is Mia, and I’m currently in school earning my Master of Arts in Teaching. I have experience as a substitute teacher and private nanny, working with children ranging from 4 weeks to 15 years old. I’m CPR, First Aid, and Mandated Reporter certified, and I have a background in Human Development and Family Sciences with a minor in Psychology. I’m patient, caring, organized, and genuinely enjoy creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment for kids. I’m currently looking for a summer nannying or caregiving position part time and would love the chance to connect with your family!
Hi my name is Kristen and I am a 30 year old college student. I have 4 years of professional experience, but have been babysittingsince I was 13. I am CPR and First Aid trained. When I was 13 my aunt ran a daycare. I would help with the cleaning, supervise the kids when my aunt couldnt, the cooking, and taking care of the babies. When I was 21 I would occasionally watch my friends child from the time she was 6 months till 8 years old. When I was 23 I worked for the school district as a substitute noon duty. When I was 26 I worked for Elizabeth Gomez for 8 months. She had two kids. A boy who was 10 and a girl who was 5. My responsibilities were to pick up the kids, help with their homework, drive them to their extracurricular activities, clean, and cook them dinner. When I was 27 I worked at a church in their baby room. I would help supervise them until the end of church. I worked for them 2 months. After that I worked for Jennifer Couch. She has two boy who was 7 and 4. I would supervise them, cook them lunch and dinner, and put them to bed. When I was 28 I worked for Craig and Catharine Hamilton. They have a boy who was 5. My responsibilities were to pick him up from school, and watch him until dad was finished with work.
“Kristen is very sweet and professional. Kids love to be with her.”
Hi! My name is Melodie, and I bring a warm, reliable, and well-rounded approach to caregiving. I’ve been babysitting off and on since high school, and over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with families in a wide range of settings—from casual date nights to consistent weekly care. Between 2021 and 2023, I provided regular childcare for a college head coach’s family, where I was trusted to handle everything from after-school routines and bedtime to meal prep and light tidying. More recently, I’ve been working with a wonderful family caring for two young siblings. I’ve also taken formal child development courses and hold an active CPR and First Aid certification. Your child’s safety and emotional well-being are my top priorities, and I pride myself on creating a calm, fun, and structured environment. Whether it’s imaginative play, helping with schoolwork, or reinforcing routines, I aim to support not just the kids but the whole family. In addition to childcare, I’m also experienced in household support. I’ve run my own household and have been employed to help organize others’, so I naturally maintain a clean and tidy space. I enjoy cooking and can prepare simple, healthy meals for children and families as needed. I’m also a huge animal lover and have grown up around pets my whole life. I currently have two of my own and am confident in handling pet care alongside childcare—including walks, feeding, and lots of love. Transportation is never a problem. I have a perfect driving record and a safe, well-maintained vehicle. I understand how important punctuality and reliability are when it comes to caregiving, and I always strive to go above and beyond. Whether you need dependable babysitting, pet care, help keeping your household running smoothly—or all three—I’d love to be a part of your support system. I genuinely care about the families I work with and value building lasting, respectful relationships. Looking forward to connecting!
“Great sitter. Punctual, professional and sweet with our children! She even made them dinner and cleaned up the kitchen afterwards! We will definitely book her again!”
