With 6 years of experience in taking care of family and friends' children, I've been blessed with the patience and kindness to assist children in their growing lives. I am certified in First Aid/CPR through the American Red Cross and am currently attending school online for a B.S. in History. Although kids love simple foods, I've had the greatest knack at getting children to eat their greens and try new things. Craft time is the best part of any day, and it gives children a great opportunity for a chance at creativity. We also love to get some healthy exercise in by going to the park, a museum, or taking a lap around the neighborhood.

I train one weekend out of the month and 2 weeks out of the summer. I have been taking care of children since I could have been able to. I enjoy making their youth years eventful and educational.

- 8 years paid experience

Hi! My name is Riley Howland, and I’ve been caring for children since I was 14, when I first became CPR certified through the Red Cross. Since then, I’ve worked as a babysitter, nanny, daycare teacher, and camp counselor for three summers. I also have experience working with children with special needs, and I love finding ways to support every child’s unique personality and needs. I’ve been CPR and First Aid certified multiple times over the past 8 years, and I also hold certifications for teaching in daycare settings, with a focus on children ages 3-5. Whether it’s playtime, homework help, or creating a safe space for kids to express themselves, I make it a priority to give children the care, patience, and encouragement they deserve. Babysitting is more than a job for me, it’s a chance to create positive experiences and be someone families can trust.

I'm an involved mom of one teenage daughter that has worked with kids at church as a youth choir director since the age of 15 years old, which equates to almost 25 years of experience caring for children. I took a break from that position a few years ago due to my youth transferring to colleges. We took trips to amusement parks, water parks, neighboring churches to fellowship amongst others. I'm new to the professional babysitting world, but I put my heart into caring for the little ones.

I am a junior at Auburn University and I am a nursing major and just started my upper division nursing classes! I have always loved being around children and have been working with them for quite a while. I went to a private high school that had a child care center and I worked there every week from my sophomore year to my senior year of high school! The age range of the child care center was 6 weeks to 3 years old. I also had around 15 families that I got to babysit/nanny for regularly until I left for college! I still get to babysit for them when I go home for breaks! Those ages ranged from newborn to 12 years old. In addition, I also got the opportunity to intern at the Children's Healthcare of Atlanta for a summer! I would describe myself as very calm and comforting! My goal is to provide reliable child care while also being a safe and loving space for children when their parents or guardians are not present! I strive to nurture and create fun memories for children while we are together and to create a peace of mind for parents while they are away from their children!

Hi! I’ve been babysitting for over 3 years and love caring for kids of all ages. I’ve helped with school pick-ups/drop-offs, homework, after-school activities, and meals. I’m also happy to care for family pets while babysitting. I love doing arts and crafts, watching YouTube or new kids’ movies, and making every day fun and engaging. I’m fluent in Spanish and can help introduce basic language skills in a fun, natural way. I always aim to create a safe, patient, and positive environment where kids can thrive.
