Hi! My name is Beydan and I am currently a senior at the University of Minnesota I’ve been babysitting since I was 16 and have experience caring for kids of all different ages! As the oldest in my family, I’ve always been the one looking after the little ones, so being around kids has always felt super natural to me. I also spent two years working with children at autism centers, which gave me even more experience working with different personalities and needs. I enjoy spending time with kids, whether that’s playing games, doing activities, helping with homework, or just hanging out and keeping them entertained. I’m patient, easygoing, dependable, and would love to be someone your family can feel comfortable and happy having around!
With several plus years of hands-on experience in childcare, I bring a nurturing, responsible, and energetic presence to every family I work with. I’ve cared for children of all ages—from infants to school-aged—adapting to each child’s unique personality, developmental stage, and needs. My approach focuses on creating a safe, engaging, and loving environment where children can thrive emotionally, socially, and intellectually. I’m skilled in daily routines including feeding, diapering, naptime, and bedtime, as well as organizing age-appropriate activities like arts and crafts, educational games, outdoor play, and reading time. I also support homework help and encourage positive behavior through gentle guidance and consistent routines. Parents trust me not only for my reliability and attention to detail, but also for my genuine love for children and ability to bond with them quickly. Whether it’s managing busy household schedules, handling unexpected situations with calmness, or simply providing a comforting presence, I am committed to supporting families with professionalism and care. I am currently enrolled as a college student, balancing my academic goals with my passion for childcare. I am also in the process of completing my CPR and First Aid certification to ensure even greater peace of mind for the families I work with.

Hi all! My name is Alex, and I’m currently taking a gap year before starting PA school. I’m a certified CNA, BLS certified, and I have a Bachelor’s degree in Biology from the University of St. Thomas.
