Why do I love being with kids Because when I was growing up I was in foster care. When I was still living with my foster mother I helped with the kids all the time and watch when she was away. Everything that I need to know about kids I got it from my foster mom and so I have 5 years of experience with all ages.

I’m recently a high school graduate (2 years ago) and ready to help families in need of a sitter. Being completely new to professional baby sitting, I have 9 years experience baby sitting my 9 year old and 2 year old younger sisters. I posses the skills cooking meals, changing diapers, homework help, getting kids to bed on time, dressing kids appropriately and with care, teaching small things like brushing teeth and how to use the bathroom, having patience, and if needed I have a car for transportation. It’s more to it than being a baby sitter, it’s creating bonds with the children and parents and families and making a difference in their lives and seeing them grow into amazing human beings. I want to offer the love and care I have for children and give my opportunity to help families in need.

Hi! My name is Shannon, but most people call me "Shay", and I bring a lifelong love of working with children into every caregiving role I take on. My journey began at age 12, babysitting for my neighbors’ kids, and has since grown into a deep and diverse career that includes teaching, nannying, and—most importantly—being a mother to two incredible children of my own. With a background in Musical Theatre (B.F.A. from The New School), dance, education, meditation, and yoga, I aim to strike a balance between playful creativity and calm presence. I’m certified in CPR/AED, trauma-informed care, and yoga and meditation, and I’m in the process of renewing my First Aid certification. These tools help me create a safe, nurturing, and grounded environment for the children I care for. I believe in meeting children where they are, listening deeply, and encouraging their natural curiosity about the world. Whether that means exploring outside, diving into imaginative play, or finding calm through a breathing exercise, I adapt my care to the unique needs and energy of each child. I'm happy to pitch in with household chores, and I’m also a pet lover, and a licensed driver. I'm currently looking for part-time opportunities so I can balance caregiving with quality time with my own children. If you're seeking someone who brings both heart and skill to your family, I’d love to connect!

I have a lot of experience in many care settings, including nannying, day care and day program. I have experience with infants, babies, neurodivergent children, special needs children, children in foster care, children with trauma and children of divorce. I have been known to treat children with respect and personally believe each child is smart. I will teach your child something new, no matter their age or mental level. I have been known to be great at teaching independence, self sufficiency and kindness. I prefer not to do dishes, clean vomit (baby spit up is different and I do not mind it), and take care of sick kiddos. I can handle many children at once and have been called a professional big sister.

I am 30 years old and have worked in daycares and assisted with at home child care for over 10 years. Working with even kids that are on the spectrum. My mission is to provide the best love and care to all children

Hi! I'm Emma, a 20-year-old nursing student, planning to be a pediatric oncology nurse, and I have a strong passion for working with kids and helping others. I currently work as a Patient Care Technician on a pediatric hospital unit, where I care for children of all ages with compassion and attention to safety. Before that, I worked as a tumbling instructor at the Decatur Indoor Sports Center, teaching children from 10 months to 13 years old—so I’m no stranger to high energy and big imaginations! I’m BLS/CPR certified. While I am new to professional babysitting, I have experience babysitting my younger cousins (ages 4, 7, and 9), as well as pet sitting for families with dogs, cats, and even fish, so I am always open to watching over fur babies as well! A big priority of mine is to always make sure kids feel safe, engaged, and heard. Whether it’s playtime, bedtime routines, or just being a calming presence, I’m here to help make your day a little easier. Over summer I have pretty flexible availability, and during the school year I am available most days after 2:30 pm, and most weekends! I'd love to meet your family and see how I can support your needs! Please message me with any questions!
