Hi! My name is Kate, and I am a 22-year-old recent MSU graduate. I have been babysitting/nannying for about 9 years now. I have extensive experience working with children from 4 months to 14 years. I consistently babysat for a family of 3 for about 4 years, and I enjoyed watching the kids grow up and being such an important part of their lives. I love working with children and helping them learn and grow. I am very creative, energetic, patient, and open-minded. I love fostering kids' creativity through imaginative play. Last summer I was selected for an internship with the Girl Scouts as their Environmental Education Coordinator. With this experience, I was able to foster a love of nature in kids and help them safely explore the outdoors! I also gained my Wilderness First Aid certification which includes CPR and First Aid training. Along with being extremely well-versed in child care, I am also comfortable with pets. I have grown up with both cats and dogs and worked at a dog training facility for a summer during high school. I also have my own transportation and am comfortable taking the kids to their activities or on fun outings. I cannot wait to get to know you and your family!

Hi my name is Marlena, I am 25 years old and very interested in your job posting. I have experience working with children for the past 10 years. I am looking for a part-time position starting middle of June until early August. I graduated from MSU in Spring 2023 with a degree in Elementary Education. I then continued my education at MSU and took graduate level courses while completing my teaching internship in 2023-2024. Since then, I have taught 3rd grade for 2 years. A little background info: I have many years of baby-sitting experience and have also worked as a camp counselor for 6 summers for children ages 4-13 years old, so I am very comfortable working with multiple children at different age levels. I have experience working as a nanny for a family with a 1.5 year old son and 4.5 year old daughter. I have also had experience caring for young infants. I speak English fluently and I recently renewed my CPR certification. I am a non-smoker and I have a clean driving record. I am a very organized person and prefer to keep things clean and tidy, so I have no issues during work around the house and helping out in any way I can. I’d be happy to answer any additional questions you have and can provide references upon request! I look forward to hearing from you and wish you the best of luck with your search!

Hi! I’m a caring, dependable sitter who genuinely enjoys working with children. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science and am currently pursuing my Master of Athletic Training degree. I spent five years coaching gymnastics, working closely with children of all ages and helping create safe, structured, and fun environments where they can learn and grow. Through coaching, I developed strong communication skills, patience, and the ability to keep kids engaged while prioritizing their safety and well-being. I also hold a Basic Life Support (BLS) certification and am trained to respond calmly and appropriately in emergencies. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to help with pets! I have one dog and two cats of my own, so I’m very comfortable around animals and can assist with pet care as needed. I’m reliable, attentive, and excited to support families by providing quality care they can trust.
