Maya W., Babysitter in Bloomington, IN 47401 with 8 years of paid experience

I love helping kids learn how to navigate the world and watching them grow into their personalities. I've babysat since I was 12, worked as a camp counselor for 3 years, and helped with after-school supervision at MCCSC for a little over a year. I have experience with children ages 1-12 and thrive on encouraging creativity and kindness whenever possible.

Mary R.

We had a great experience with Maya and would 10/10 recommend her to other families. She cared for our son on several occasions when he was a little over two years old. She is kind, patient, attentive, responsible, and very reliable. She was always easygoing and engaged with him through activities and play! She connected with him naturally and put us at ease! We truly appreciated having someone we could trust, and we would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring babysitter.

Hi! I’m a student at Indiana University studying Human Biology with plans to go into pediatrics. I genuinely love working with kids and have several years of caregiving and mentoring experience. I currently work as a caregiver for a child with cerebral palsy, which has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to provide individualized care in a safe and supportive environment. I enjoy helping with routines, homework, activities, and creating a fun space where kids feel comfortable. Families would describe me as dependable, caring, and easy to communicate with!

Hannah W., Babysitter in Bloomington, IN 47401 with 6 years of paid experience

I’m Hannah. I am a patient, dependable, and supportive nanny and sitter. I value creating a fun and engaging environment where children feel both safe and excited to learn and experience new things. I have experience with children in a wide range of ages, ranging from 6 months to 16 years old. In addition, all children under my care have held a wide range of personalities and needs. I have strong knowledge and experience with children with learning differences, with primary experience being autism. I strongly value building rapport with children and offering an environment primarily focused around play based learning. My approach includes maintaining routines, outside time, play where I am specifically engaging with the kids while also recognizing the importance of independent play, planning age appropriate activities, and help with school related things. I strive to build trusting relationships with all families through communications, dependability, consistency, and respect. In all, I have always enjoyed working with children and having the opportunity to aid and be there during important milestones. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions.
