Hi, I’m Sydney, I’m 20 years old and have 8 years experience with kids aged 6 weeks - 12 years. I love baking, cooking, crafting, and being outdoors. I’ve always had a passion for kids as well as helping people when needed. So babysitting was an easy way for me to be able to do that. So whenever you are in need of a babysitter just let me know! I’ve worked at a daycare before, am cpr certified, and have lots of experience. I also have my own transportation.

During my undergraduate studies, I worked with children who needed support in every way, and that experience deeply shaped my love for caregiving. It showed me how children are pure in love, mind, and spirit, and how meaningful it is to be part of their growth. All of my undergraduate internships and jobs were focused on working with children—caring for them, showing compassion, engaging in play, and supporting them through important emotional and developmental moments. Here in the United States, during my first year I worked as a nanny for two children, which gave me hands-on experience in daily care and routine management. After that, I transitioned to a position caring for an elderly person, which strengthened my patience, responsibility, and ability to provide attentive, individualized care. I consider myself responsible, patient, and dedicated, and I enjoy creating a safe and warm environment for those I care for. -Always work with a digital planner so that everyone has the correct information. - I can support you with any extra activities you may need. - Different activities for your little ones' development. --- 1.Punctuality 2.Willingness to adopt new routines 3.Teamwork 4.Communication and constant monitoring of plans. 5.

Hello my name is Nataliha Oleniczak. I am a student at Heartland College and I play softball. I am from Wisconsin. I love kids and I have 4 years of babysitting experience!! I am CPR certified and went through babysitting classes. I am a very outgoing and fun person to be around and I am very flexible with softball. We get our schedules out a couple weeks before the month starts so I can work around it. Our season starts in the middle of February so definitely a little more busy and on the road. I can cook, clean, help with homework, do anything you ask me to do. I have babysitted ages, 5-12. I love taking kids to the park, bike rides, on walks, or even watching tv with them.

Hello my name is Kelly Richardson, I am a U.S. Navy vet, single mom of 4 school aged children that’s looking for a job as something I already do at home, I’m ok with pet sitting, babysitting, and elder care sitting.I have prior experience in all of those categories. I used to babysit in my early 20s as well as pet sit/house sit before joining the military and recently took care of my grandmother last year before she passed away (cooking, cleaning, running errands, bathe, etc.) I’ve been an off and on stay at home mom for 12 years now, I find comfort in continuing to do the same thing outside of my home because I adore and love spending time with children, elders, pets and cleaning at times especially because it helps me burn my unwanted fat lol. The things that set me apart from most people is that I have a very genuine, caring, patient, loving, supportive, hardworking and passionate personality. I know that tackling the everyday keeping the house together on top of loved ones can be difficult at times especially while trying to establish a working life outside of the home but I can assure you that it’s a passion of mine and I will put my best foot forward on making sure that the family I’m working for feels that, and can come home worry and stress free like they should, especially if you’re the type to put the key in the key hole and dread walking into your home after a long day out at work. I’m here to lift one or many of your biggest loads off and make sure you can come home to a smile each and everyday.

I currently work as an infant room assistant at a local daycare, and I have up-to-date certification. I am happy to share that if requested. I love taking care of infants and helping them learn and grow! I am experienced at making formula and breastmilk bottles. I am also happy to clean or help with chores if needed. A little about me is that I am a current ISU student, planning on graduating in the winter of 2026. I love traveling, crafting, and baking in my spare time.
