Talia $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my names Talia and I am a senior at MSU studying human development and family studies. I’ve always enjoyed caring for others and have built strong experience working with both children and seniors. I nannied for one child from infancy to age three, helping with daily routines, development, and creating a nurturing environment. I’ve also had many babysitting jobs with kids of all ages, so I’m comfortable adapting to different personalities and needs. I helped care for my grandfather with dementia, which taught me patience, empathy, and how to stay calm in challenging situations. I was also a swim instructor for children under four, where I focused on safety while making learning fun and engaging. Along with my hands-on experience, I’ve taken classes in childhood development and parenting, which help me better understand children’s needs. I’m reliable, caring, and I love working with kids!

Amara $15 per hour for 1 child

Hey you :) My name is Amara and I have recently moved back to the US after working abroad for 2 years. Professionally, I am a Mechanical Engineer, but as I am considering a life/career change, I am temporarily looking for part time work. I am an aunt to 4 boys and 2 grand nephews, a cat mom and have had a lot of experience over the years caring for children and different pets (cats, dogs, hamsters, even a bearded dragon!). I have cared for children within my family as well as for non family members. (infants, toddlers, young children, 10+) I am a great home cook (one of my passions is food/cooking). I also have about 5 years of experience with math tutoring and general educational guidance/coaching (mostly for grades 6 through college, but willing to tutor lower grades as well.) I am very creative and love crafting as well (art, sewing, crochet, etc) I am a big DIYer I would love to connect and discuss how I can help you or your family!

Calla $13 per hour for 1 child

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! :)
