Hello, my name is Brittany and I am 23 years old and am very interested in being your sitter. I am currently an executive director of a daycare where I run and take care of all the daycare business! I have 10 years of experience as a babysitter for children newborn through the 8th grade. I have my own car and a clean driving record. I also am certified in CPR, First Aid, and many more! I am very loving, patient, and outgoing and love having activities that children will find entertaining. I just graduated college with a major in Elementary Education and have been subbed in many grade levels to continue building my love and involvement with children. My babysitting skills and experience, along with my positive attitude and friendly nature, position me to excel in this role. I would love the opportunity to meet your family and discuss my qualifications in more detail. Thank you very much, and I look forward to speaking with you soon!

I have raise my family and I am now a grandma to three children 7, 11 and 13. my husband and I moved here to be closer to them. I love babies and taking care of them. If you want your baby to be snuggled and we’ll cared for - I am your person. My husband and I have been foster parents for a baby/toddler with special needs. (Failure to thrive). I have coached my daughter in softball all through her elementary days. I was also a Girl Scout leader. For the last 13 years I have coached in a high school environment which would mean that I have had all my background checks and fingerprints on file with the police department. My specialty is new born - 18 months

As a young child my mom did income daycare, so I grew up helping out with it. As well as helping raise my younger sister, after my mom passed away. I've continued to babysit when need be for neighbors, friends, family, and other children. I have been babysitting for at least 10 years, and have nannied for 3. lI've watched children of all ages, and feel extremely comfortable with them all. I've recently been watching a 3 year old and an infant, or an 8 and 10 year old. I've done many things with the children, making any meals, taking them to the pool, walks, the park, naps and bedtimes. I'm very artsy and enjoy doing crafts. I also love the outdoors, and would rather be outside then inside. I have no issues with any pets. I'm CPR certified, and can handle any situation comfortably. I do have my own car and am willing to take car of any drop offs or pick ups as needed. I am opened to anything! I also have a 6 month old that I would like to be able to tag along with me. I look forward to hearing from you!

Hi, my name is Reese Burke. I am 19 years old, and I am currently in my sophomore year of college at Central College. I have babysat for family members, as well as family friends. I also worked for two families this past summer. I want to babysit because I love working with kids. I have worked at an after school daycare, and I spent my senior year of high school in an elementary classroom learning to work with kids. I am able to perform CPR, I learned in high school health class. And I have also worked with multiple children at once. I am comfortable working with children of any age! The hours that best work for me right now, are any times after 3:30pm any day of the week, as well as any time before 11am on M/W/F. I do understand that being in college while babysitting can be a challenge, but I believe I have good time management skills, and I can make it work!

I love being a sitter because I value providing high-level, intentional care that supports both the child’s development and the family’s lifestyle. I take pride in creating a calm, structured, and nurturing environment where children feel secure, confident, and engaged. For me, being a nanny is not just childcare—it’s about becoming a trusted professional who contributes positively to a family’s daily flow and peace of mind. I have extensive professional experience working with children in both private childcare and structured behavioral settings. I’ve supported children of varying ages and needs, partnering closely with families to maintain routines, encourage emotional regulation, and foster healthy development. My background includes consistency, discretion, and adaptability—qualities that are especially important when supporting busy households. I bring a strong skill set in child development support, behavior management, emotional regulation, and routine-based care. With my training as a Registered Behavioral Technician, I am highly skilled in positive reinforcement, observation, and individualized support strategies. I am organized, detail-oriented, and proactive, with the ability to anticipate family needs, multitask efficiently, and maintain a polished, professional standard at all times.
