Hi! My name is calla, I am 18 and currently working on my associates degree in biology through Lansing Community College. I love nature and I have a strong passion for child care and animal care. Most people would describe me as calm, respectful, and creative. I would much rather catch butterflies, play board games, and build snowmen with your kids than sit them in front of a T.V I have no problem enforcing rules such as bedtimes or chores, I only ask that you communicate these expectations with your children beforehand. Aside from my requested times I am willing to come in if there is an emergency, or an unexpected event. I have experience with children of all ages and I am comfortable with all pets (no allergies or fears!). I am willing to show vaccination records or any other records you need from me. I look forward to meeting you and your family! :)

Hello! I am a 20 year old college student, I am in my third year pursuing my Biology degree. For the past 3 years, I have worked as a nanny and babysitter for multiple families with kids ranging from infant to 10+ years old. I normally don't use screens when watching kids and try to engage them in various activities they already have around the house or from whatever material I bring with me. I am comfortable with all pets and don't mind helping with light housekeeping.

Booked by 1 family in Dimondale, MI

I have been babysitting/ had experience with small children since I was 9 or 10- first with my little brother and cousins and later babysitting outside the home. I helped with Vacation Bible School and Sunday School for many years, as a leader. I now have nieces and nephews that I have babysat over the years too. Kids seem to like me fairly quickly- I honestly think it's the curly hair doing a lot of the work lol I love doing crafts or reading (voices and all) and my family loves to play games. As far as the fur babies- I grew up having cats, all my friends have cats, my mom used to foster for the Humane Society and I've got my own 2 handsome sons. I have also had experience living with a dog, as well as dogsitting and I am very comfortable around them. I like to keep my spaces pretty tidy and organized and clean my own home regularly. You can often find me gently bossing my friend around so she gets her chores and tasks done lol

Akua is reliable and great with cats!

$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a reliable, caring, and patient caregiver who truly enjoys supporting families. I have hands-on experience caring for children of different ages, gained through my personal background. I grew up in foster care and spent much of my life helping care for my younger siblings, which taught me responsibility, patience, and how to create a safe, nurturing environment. I’m comfortable assisting with homework, preparing simple meals, and engaging kids in fun, age-appropriate activities. I also have experience caring for pets, including feeding, walking, and playtime, as well as helping with light household tasks such as cleaning, organizing, laundry, and errands. I’m dependable, punctual, and take pride in being someone families can trust.
