Sandra was the first sitter we ever used for my 3 month old son during the time I was in night classes. She eased my stress of being away from my son with her friendly disposition, experience level, and attentive care for him. We also had a non-traditional situation with the childcare being on campus and she was very accommodating and willing to make our situation successful. I had full trust that my son was safe with Sandra and she routinely went on walks with him, played with him, and bottle fed him. I would highly recommend her to a friend and hope to continue to have her look after my son in the future when opportunities arise.

I had trouble finding care for my son for school break and Sabrina responded quickly to my message. When she did come to visit she was punctual, kind, respectful, and my son adored her. He said he had lots of fun with her. They played board games, put a puzzle together, watched movies and she helped fix his lunch. He’s already asking me when she can come again!

Hi! My name is Rachael and I have been working with children professionally and through babysitting for over 10 years. I have a passion for finding engaging, creative, and exciting activities and ways to interact with children. I have a bachelors degree in child and family development that I have put to practice in various professional jobs including Early Intervention ABA therapy, and Head Start home teaching for 0-5 year olds. I am an engaged babysitter/nanny and enjoy planning engaging activities based on developmentally appropriate practices. I believe that reading, singing songs, using pretend play, and getting outdoors, among other things, are incredibly beneficial for the education and development of young children

Would highly recommend Rachael as a sitter. My son enjoys having her as his morning sitter for the wake up routine, breakfast, and drop offs at school. She was always prompt and very friendly.

I am currently a student studying to become a speech pathologist, with the intention of working in schools one day! I love working with kids, during the school year I work at a daycare with ages ranging from infants - 6 years old. This semester I also started working with Right At School in Berrien Springs Public Schools, with grades kindergarten-5th. I am also a big animal person and would enjoy watching over your pets as well, as I frequently cat and dog sit and have a couple cats myself. I would love to get to know you and your family:)

Khadija has been such a gift to our family. As a first time mom, I felt a lot of anxiety about entrusting someone else with my baby when I returned to work. From our very first interview, Khadija’s calm, kind demeanor put me at ease. Watching her interact with my son only confirmed what I had hoped for- that she would provide the gentleness, warmth, patience, encouragement, and playfulness every parent hopes their child will experience with any caretaker. Khadija is attentive, observant, and incredibly intuitive. She is creative and engaging during playtime, communicates wonderfully, and is flexible and adaptable when the day doesn’t go according to plan. She truly knows how to “ride the wave” and meet my son where he is, whether he’s having a happy, high-energy day or isn’t feeling his best and needs a little extra calmness, comfort, and attention. She respects his routine while also reading his cues well and adjusting to his needs. Her ability to balance consistency with flexibility is something I deeply appreciate. Thanks to Khadija, I can focus on work, leave the house when needed, and go about my day without wondering whether my son is in good hands. That peace of mind is invaluable. What makes Khadija even more special is that her care extends beyond my son to me, too. This was never something outlined in our contract or discussed, it's simply something she offers of her own volition as a thoughtful and compassionate human being. She meets me where I am, whether it’s a chatty day, a difficult postpartum day, an emotional day, or one of those light and easy days. She brings a steadiness and kindness that make the beautiful, messy, and sometimes challenging parts of life feel a little lighter. She has been a source of support not only for my son, but for me as I’ve navigated motherhood. I trust Khadija wholeheartedly with my baby, and I feel incredibly fortunate that she is part of our lives. We are so grateful for the care, love, and peace of mind she brings to our family, and I sincerely hope she’ll be able to support us again as our family hopefully grows. I couldn’t recommend her more highly to another family looking for someone who will care for their child with genuine warmth, attentiveness, and heart.

I was a licensed day care provider for over 20 years. I am Covid vaccinated! Now that my own 3 children are grown I enjoy doing childcare/babysitting in other's homes. I studied child development in college. Children and families are my passion and I really enjoy this line of work. My hobbies include tennis, hiking, running half marathons and boating. I have lots of experience and regularly care for infants. I can guarantee you that your children will be loved and receive excellent care when I am with them. I enjoy interacting with the children I watch. I like to read to them, play games, sing songs ect. I believe it is very important for parents to be able to enjoy their time away from their children knowing that their children are safe, having fun and well cared for. I am fun, flexible and ready to help!

I’m also comfortable driving with them and helping them with their homework! I took Child Development classes at SMC and I learned a lot about, as a caregiver, how to help children to develop their physical, cognitive, and emotional skills. - Fully vaccinated - Own transportation - Reliable references - Driver License - Non-smoker - Comfortable with pets

I have cared for newborns to the elderly. I am a CNA and have held CPR and ACLS certifications. I will read to your child, help them with homework, take them for walks and to play at the park. I love all pets. I'm a nanny because: I love to care for, interact with and teach children of all ages. I have a positive and happy outlook and try to be a good role model. I will treat your children with the same care as if they were my own. I am trustworthy, reliable, friendly and fun.

Jonnie has been our Nanny for over 2 years, and we were so lucky to have her as part of our family! She is extremely dependable, hard working, very positive, and such a pleasure to be around. Jonnie has helped my boys with schoolwork, taught them many sports (rollerblading, hiking, bowling), and she has a great sense of humor. Jonnie is also a wonderful cook! We had previous sitters, and hands-down she is the best Nanny anyone could have. I recommend her in the highest regard, and we will miss her very much! Kathy W

Hello! My name is Amina, and I’m a warm, dependable, patient, and experienced childcare professional with a unique background in childcare, behavioral support, children’s yoga, wellness, and education. I have spent many years working with children of different ages and abilities, including six years as a behavioral/ABA tutor working with children on the autism spectrum. This experience taught me the importance of patience, consistency, communication, compassion, and meeting each child exactly where they are. I understand that every child has their own personality, needs, interests, and way of learning, and I believe the best caregivers create an environment where children feel safe, respected, encouraged, and understood. My experience with children includes working as a behavioral tutor with children on the autism spectrum, providing individualized support in home, school, and therapeutic settings. I worked with children of various ages and supported them with behavioral goals, communication, social skills, routines, and age-appropriate activities. I have also worked extensively with children through children’s yoga and movement programs. I have taught preschool-aged children, school-aged children, summer camps, and after-school programs. My experience includes teaching children’s yoga in educational and wellness environments. Teaching yoga to children has given me a wonderful understanding of how movement, imagination, breathing, and play can help children develop confidence, body awareness, focus, and emotional regulation. I have also worked as a private nanny, giving me hands-on experience caring for young children and managing the many responsibilities that come with providing attentive, one-on-one care. My approach to childcare is nurturing, engaged, and respectful. I believe children thrive when they know what to expect and feel that the adults around them genuinely enjoy being with them. I like to create a balance between structured routines and fun, creative activities. Depending on the child's age and interests, that might include arts and crafts, reading, outdoor play, games, imaginative play, music, movement, yoga, nature walks, or simply spending quality time together. I am also comfortable supporting homework, maintaining routines, preparing simple meals and snacks, helping with bedtime, and keeping children engaged and safe throughout the day.

Amina was very reliable, it was easy to communicate with her. She took care of my 9yo son for approximately 10 hrs. and he was very comfortable with her. She was proactive in sending texts and communications that helped me.
