Hello! My name is Jaycie. I have always loved to be around children, always enjoy doing arts and crafts, playing outside, and reading plenty of books! I am CPR/First Aid certified and have worked with children since the age of 16. I have previously worked in a daycare for 2 years, as a camp counselor, and at an Elementary school. Since summer of 2019 I have decided to help parents out and watch children from my home. I have experience with ages of newborn-15 years old, including a daughter of my own but I love all ages! If you have any questions please feel free to send me a message so we can chat! Thank you.

hello my name is Nychelle.I currently reside in Springfield. I'm currently CPR and first aid certified. I do have lots of experience with children. For starters I have two younger siblings of my own, and being an older sister can really set you up for things like this. I've baby sat for numerous people I know with younger, disabled, mentally challenged and babies. I was a regular sitter for year working with a 2&4 year old. I can work with kids of all ages!! I'm fun creative and very patient! I would love the experience of being a nanny, I loved mine growing up. Can provide references if needed.

My family has been fostering children since I was in 4th grade, and we've always had small children in the house that I've helped to raise/take care of. Taking after my mom, I LOVE children and have strong maternal instincts! Besides constantly helping out with kids around the house, I also have babysat for several different children in the past, as well as volunteering for Eco Camp two summers ago, where I was in charge of a medium sized group of children aged 5-12. Besides being able to help out a family in need, I'm hoping to earn some money to help out at college during the semester, as well as get quality time with little kids.

I have been babysitting part-time for over 20 years. I have experience babysitting children with asthma, severe allergies, and ADHD. I feel comfortable babysitting for all age groups and genders. I have watched up to 5 children at one time. I can help prepare meals, clean, do laundry, transport kids to/from school and events, and run errands. I have familiarity with American Sign Language. I grew up with animals and feel comfortable watching them as well. I work full-time in Springfield Monday through Friday 8am-5pm, so I am looking for a family to help out on nights and weekends. I have reliable transportation and do not smoke.

I absolutely love being a sitter because it's such a rewarding experience to connect with kids and help them learn and grow. Knowing I can make a positive impact on a child's day and provide a safe, fun environment is what drives my passion. I have several years of experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to pre-teens. This includes everything from meal prep and homework help to organizing fun activities and ensuring their safety. I've also handled various responsibilities like managing bedtimes, following specific dietary needs, and providing basic first aid when needed. I'm skilled in creating engaging and educational activities that cater to different age groups. I am ready to obtain CPR and First Aid certification quickly if needed for the job. My goal is to not only provide excellent care but also to help children develop and explore their interests.

I am a 26 year old student from Germany, I am living in America since 2022 and I am raising my almost three year old son here. I refreshed my CPR and BBP Course and am certificate. I have reliable transportation and could drive your kid to school or pick it up. My son and I enjoy going on walks in the Carpenterspark or making friends at playgrounds. Some days we go to Ergadoozy and on other days we stay at home and do art projects. Anyway, I would love to help you out!
