Hi I’m Maddison! I’m 24 years old and the mom to a 3 month old little boy. I live in the Alton area and I am looking to care for children within my home to allow me to stay with my little one. I have lovingly cooked, cleaned, played with and cared for children of all ages for years now and it is truly a passion of mine! I love to do crafts & learning activities with the children. I also carefully follow parents instructions regarding schedules, discipline, free time, etc. to insure your child/children’s time with me would be no different than their time at home. I’m reliable, hard working and always flexible with scheduling. Overall I strive to treat every child in my care as one of my own and would love the opportunity to help make the childcare process a happy & easy experience for any family I work for!

I've been pouring into the lives of the youth since grade school- starting with caring for my younger cousins since they they were born to when to adolescence (teens) by learning hands-on from their parents. Since then, I've babysat for neighbors, worked as a before and after school child care assistant for 3rd and 5th graders, and even mentored elementary students on self-esteem and emotional regulation. I'm CPR, First Aid and AED certified (adult & pediatric), I have relable transportation and am licenced, and I'm confident with everything from diaper changes to meals and bedtime routines and helping kids overall. I truly love being a sitter, it fills me with purpose and joy to support children and their families with patience, care, positive energy, and empathy.

Hi! I love being a sitter because kids bring so much joy and energy into everyday life. I enjoy spending time with them, whether that’s helping with homework, doing crafts, playing outside, or just being silly together. For me, it’s about creating a safe, fun, and caring space where kids feel comfortable and parents feel at ease. I’ve had experience caring for children of different ages, from little ones to school-aged kids. I’ve helped with after-school routines, meals, bedtime, and keeping kids entertained with creative and active play.

I've loved caring for children for as long as I could remember. I started babysitting at 12 and as the oldest of five siblings, I grew up helping care for younger children daily. 11 years as a mom myself, I truly understand children's needs at every stage and how important patience, structure and kindness are. I have experience with infants, including colicky babies, supporting children with attention, anxiety and behavioral challenges, as well as children with special needs. I'm calm, dependable, and very attentive, with a strong sense of empathy and understanding. My goal is always to create a safe, nurturing environment where children feel comfortable and parents feel confident their little ones are in caring hands.
