Laura H., Babysitter in Salem, AL 36874 with 21 years of paid experience

I am a mother to two girls who are in middle school now, have been the host mom to 6 exchange students from around the world, and have babysat or nannied most of my 18 nieces and nephews at one point or another. I love kids profoundly, and my priorities when caring for them are simple: keep them safe and have fun. Kids should laugh and play every day, no matter what age, and they learn best when doing so. I’m the third of six kids, so I’ve been caring for children since I was young. Authentic connection and honest communication are very important to me. I’d describe myself as energetic, honest, and playful. I love working with kids because they’re hilarious, genuine, and awesome. They deserve caregivers who adore them as they are, teach with love, and don’t stare at a screen all day. Kids keep me busy and humble me with their wisdom, confidence, and sincerity. I like babies because they’re pure and learning constantly; little kids because they’re teachable, sincere, and silly; and teens because they’re navigating adulthood while still being kids. I’m looking for a job that lets me make a meaningful difference in a child’s life without taking me away from my own. I want to help parents with the juggle of having small children now that I’m through that season myself. My ideal schedule is eight to three while my kids are in school, but I’m flexible as long as I can still pick them up and take them to lessons with any children I’m caring for, treating them like family. My strengths are creativity, playfulness, and many years of experience. I believe kids should have space to explore, laugh, and learn through doing. When I’m with them, I’m engaged; talking, playing, and imagining with them, not sitting on my phone. I grew up in a big family, so I’m used to the noise, the energy, and the beautiful chaos that comes with kids. I don’t expect perfection; I expect personality. I love seeing kids express who they are and helping them grow in confidence and kindness. I believe structure is helpful but flexibility is essential. I’m not the sitter who watches from the sidelines. I’m in the mix, laughing, teaching, and learning right alongside them. Caring for kids isn’t a job to me; it’s meaningful work that I genuinely enjoy. I want the children I care for to remember feeling safe, loved, and free to be themselves when I was around. My goal is always the same: keep them safe, make them laugh, and help them learn.
