Allen R., Babysitter in Decatur, AL 35601 with 20 years of paid experience

I have been babysitting since I was a young teenager. One of my first babysitting experiences was assisting a mother with her two premature twin daughters while her husband was on a Guard Duty. I have since babysat for several families from the time their oldest child was an infant until they had 3-4 children in the family, in addition to many other families for more short-term care. Additionally, I have worked in church childcare, substitute teaching, and as a teacher for students in grades K-12. I have been working as a teacher locally since October 2011. While I enjoy teaching and find seeing students learn very fulfilling, I am looking at transitioning to a nanny position (or a combination of nanny positions) for better work-life balance since I now have children at home. I am regular trained in parenting strategies as well as CPR and water safety courses through my role as a foster parent. I am also open to occasional babysitting.

**Looking for Occasional Babysitting** I'm a passionate, caring, upbeat individual who would be the perfect nanny for your family. I have experience working with children from new born to 12 years. I would love to engage your children in a wide variety of creative activities. I love to do science experiments, read intriguing books, and get outside with the children in my care. The most important characteristic in a family that I'm working for is communicating their needs with me. Once I know what you and the children need I will do my absolute to achieve that in way that is enjoyable for everyone. I would love to help your children have fun through learning about their environment and their interests this year! P. S. I have volunteered for over 100 hours in a nursery at the hospital. This includes bathing, feeding, and soothing newborns. I have also volunteered in my church's nursery working with infants and toddlers as well as older children.

Jayla G., Babysitter in Decatur, AL 35601 with 5 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Jayla. I’m 23 years old and graduated with my bachelor’s degree in Business Management in December 2024. I’ve been working in childcare since I was 17 and have truly loved every step of the journey. I started in my local public school system in after-school care for kids ages 5–11. At 19, I became a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), working with neurodivergent children from 18 months to 19 years old. Most recently, I was a full-time nanny for a wonderful family with two kids, now 20 months and 5 years old, whom I cared for from when they were a newborn and 2. That position just wrapped up in May, and I’m currently looking for another great family to support. I’m CPR and First Aid certified and love planning fun, educational activities that help kids learn, grow, and feel safe.
