Hi! I am Maren. I am an auntie to 13 wonderful kiddos. I have 14+ years of experience sitting for my nieces and nephew, along with many other kiddos outside my family. I have been a nanny twice. I am currently a Recreational Therapist, working with kids and adults with developmental disabilities. I am CPR and First Aid certified.
Hi, my name is Maya! I've recently graduated high school and plan to attend university in the fall. I'm an established photographer and graphic designer. I love kids. I have two little cousins, one 2 year old and one 5 year old, who I watch on a regular basis and absolutely adore. I also taught a junior bible study at my church for the Pre-K age group and helped in the nursery during liturgy and other church events. I've also been involved at my high schools aquatic center, helping teach the toddlers group swim seasons swell as a couple private lessons with little ones who were previously afraid of the water because of a near drowning, but both have made significant improvement and regained their confidence and ability to be out in the water again. I look forward to meeting you and your little ones! The time I spend with my cutie-pie cousins and at the pool is often the high light of my week, and I'm excited to work for you!
Hi! My name is Faith, I’m 22 years old and I am currently in my final year of nursing school at IUPUI. I am the oldest of 4 girls, and have tons of baby cousins, so I’ve pretty much been a babysitter my whole life. I am CPR certified and I am interested in Pediatric Nursing. I have so much love for children and teenagers. I can help with tutoring in math, and I can also help run errands, if necessary. I also do not mind taking kids to and from practices, or picking them up from school/daycare.
I have a diverse background in child, pet, and senior care. I have been babysitting since middle school (where I even took an official course and got CPR certified), coached youth soccer camps and travel club teams of boys and girls ages 6-10, was a mentor of middle-school aged girls through Girls Inc of Indianapolis and tutored/volunteered at several inner-city after-school programs, and have tons of experience with kids of all ages because of my large family (I have 20 first cousins younger than I am and have often watched my neice and nephew over the years while my siblings were on vacations, even when they were under a year old). I have always loved animals (wanted to be a vet when I was a child), and have extensive experience particular caring for dogs because of my ownership and foster experience (I have had pets and shared responsibilities for them since childhood). I have also cared for cats--I love them but have a mild allergy, so I tend to limit those to short pop-in visits depending on the breed. Some limited experience with basic tending of birds (parakeets, lovebirds, macaws); and small animals such as hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs, etc. The past couple years I have focused on working as an in home health supportive services worker, particularly for seniors with mobility and memory decline issues (helping them with their house chores, cleaning, preparing meals, and generally providing companionship.) I've always found success and enjoyment in child/pet/senior care positions because I have a very calm, patient demeanor, high emotional intelligence which helps me connect with both introverts and extroverts, an extremely creative mind that keeps children engaged, a great sense of humor/willingness to be silly with young kids (I am known as the "favorite" aunt and always asked to join their vacations), and am known as "an old soul" who enjoys keeping seniors company and helping improve their lives in ways they no longer can manage themselves. I always feel a strong sense of pride in being able to provide my clients with the confidence to leave their loved ones in my care and come back to them just as happy or happier than when I arrived :) I believe one of the greatest gifts we can give people is their time back to them when they need a break or just assistance in this difficult economic period we're experiencing. If you're looking for a fun, dependable, experienced caregiver, I'd love the chance to help you! :) *I'm also fluent in Spanish
“Emily was great with my boys! They both had a lot of fun and was ready for bed when we got back home! ”
My name is Jan. I’m a mother of five, a grandmother of eight, and a retired licensed social worker and therapist. I am currently offering both child care and senior care. I have a lifelong love for children and began caring for newborns, infants, toddlers, and school-aged children at just 12 years old. I’m comfortable with all ages and can provide reliable transportation to and from school, activities, and appointments as needed. In addition to child care, I have extensive experience providing senior care. I’ve been a caregiver for my own parents and my father-in-law, and I’m comfortable assisting with daily needs such as meal preparation, transportation to appointments, errands, and companionship. (I’m also a great Euchre partner!) I am happy to work with families who have cats and dogs and am committed to providing safe, nurturing, and reliable care.
