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

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!

With 5 years of experience with working in a daycare, my love for working with kids and helping them grow has they emerge through adolescence has only continued to grow. In addition, last summer I was a full time nanny! I have done everything and in between! I started babysitting when I was 14, and still do it as a 19 year old. I have worked with all ages at the daycare, but particularly enjoy the toddler age. Feel free to contact me for interviews or for references!

I love being a sitter because I truly enjoy watching children grow, learn, and experience life. Every child is unique, and I find joy in being part of their development and helping them feel safe and supported. I’ve worked at a daycare for six years, caring for children of various ages and abilities. My experience includes creating fun, safe environments, helping with routines, and supporting children’s emotional and social needs. I am going into special education, so I have training in working with diverse learners and supporting children with special needs. I’ve learned how to be patient, observant, and nurturing, and I know how to manage behavior in a positive and respectful way. I am a very out going and happy person. My number one priority is to keep the children happy and safe.

I’m a responsible, caring, and experienced babysitter with over 5 years of hands-on childcare experience. In addition to babysitting for local families, I’ve also helped care for my own younger siblings, including those with autism and Down syndrome. This has given me a strong understanding of how to provide patient, attentive, and compassionate care for children with a variety of needs and personalities. I’m currently a college student studying Dental Hygiene, which has taught me the importance of attention to detail, professionalism, and strong communication all skills I bring into my work as a babysitter. I’m available for babysitting throughout the week with flexible hours, except Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10 AM to 5 PM due to my class schedule. I’m happy to help with everything from playtime and homework to mealtimes and bedtime routines. If you're looking for someone reliable, nurturing, and experienced, I’d love to connect and see how I can support your family!
