I am 23 years old from Chesterton , IN and I have loved children for as long as I can remember. I started babysitting when I was 14 and have nannied ever since. I also come from a Montessori background, so I am able to share that knowledge with your children. I worked in the toddler room as a directress and did nap and after school care as well for four years. I am CPR certified and get along great with animals! Willing to provide a background check as well.

Hi! My name is Katie, and I have 5+ years of experience working with children of all ages. While I enjoy caring for children at every stage, my strongest experience is with infants through preschool age. I have worked with children in both childcare center settings and outside of the center, including children with special needs. My experience has taught me how to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where every child feels comfortable, supported, and cared for. Most recently, I worked as a lead teacher in a two-year-old classroom, where I gained hands-on experience with daily routines, potty training, diapering, meals, naps, activities, behavior management, and meeting each child’s individual needs. I am comfortable handling the challenges that come with toddlers and young children and can adapt to different routines and personalities. Whether your child needs help with potty training, following a schedule, managing big emotions, or simply having someone to play and learn with, I am happy to help!

Hi my name is Anais, I have worked with children for around four years and I was a Montessori teacher for one year, I’ve been a babysitter for five years now. I am passionate about working with children because of their incredible capacity to absorb information. It's truly remarkable to witness how children take in the world around them and grow into unique individuals. Being part of their development, helping them flourish into the leaders of tomorrow, and observing their personalities unfold is incredibly rewarding to me. I am a reliable, attentive, and hardworking individual. I take pride in always being punctual, if not early, and I am fully committed to every task entrusted to me. My dedication to providing excellent care and support is unwavering. In terms of my skills, I excel at being responsive to children's needs, ensuring their comfort and enjoyment, and fostering strong communication with parents to keep them informed and involved.

My name is Robin I am a 40 year old mother of 4 girls. (23,18,11 and 7) I have worked with babies and kids since I was 13. I have great experience working with special needs adults and children. I am smoke, drug and alcohol free. I worked for Sevita and Help at Home in Valparaiso as a DSP from 2011 to 2024 I worked with adults and children with special needs. I also worked with the department of dcfs as a supervised visitation worker for 2 children with severe autism every Sunday I would bring them from their foster mother in Gary to their bio mom in Valparaiso and then at the end of the day bring them back to their foster mother. That was for about 9 months. The mother ended up getting her kids back so that job ended but it was great experience in that field. I was the kindergarten and first grade teacher at boys and girls club from 2024 to 2026 as Ms.Robin ..I am exceptionally good with babies who have colic and are fussy. I have great references-professional and personal. I will care for your children as if they are my own! I am open to rates , we can discuss it if you are serious about hiring me

I love being a sitter because it's such an impactful experience to work with kiddos of all ages. Each one has a different perspective and it's beautiful to see the world through their eyes! I thoroughly enjoy caregiving because I am very passionate about kindness and empathy. I have four years of healthcare experience where I cared for elderly women in a memory care unit. I also have two years of childcare experience through Sitting Made Simple. I've cared for children of all ages! I am CPR and First Aid certified, in addition I have my Certified Nurse's Aid license. I am extremely organized, punctual, compassionate, and exemplify strong communication and leadership skills. I also have a bachelor's degree in biology and am on the pre-med track, so I'm able to tutor as well.

I am a nursing student looking for a fulfilling role this summer! I have experience as a nanny, summer camp counselor, and healthcare worker in the public school system. I have worked with infants, toddlers, and school-aged children, and I am CPR and First Aid certified with clinical experience as well. I also have extensive experience working with children with special needs. Growing up with a sibling who has special needs and volunteering as a caregiver with Special Olympics has given me valuable experience providing compassionate, individualized care. Working with children is incredibly rewarding to me. I love getting to know each child's unique personality, supporting their growth and development, and creating engaging activities that encourage learning and outdoor play. Outside of work, I enjoy flying and earned my pilot's license two years ago. I have my own reliable transportation and a flexible schedule. If you think I may be a good fit for your family, I would be happy to provide references or schedule a call. I look forward to connecting with you!

I truly enjoy working with children and creating a safe, positive, and fun environment where they can feel comfortable being themselves. I have over 10 years of experience working with children in childcare and preschool settings, including experience in leadership roles. I also have an Associate Degree in Early Childhood Education and am a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), which has given me additional experience supporting children with different developmental, behavioral, and communication needs. I’m patient, dependable, attentive, and very hands-on. I enjoy arts and crafts, learning activities, reading, outdoor play, and finding fun ways to keep children engaged. I understand that every child is different, and I believe in meeting children where they are while providing structure, encouragement, and lots of positive reinforcement. Most importantly, I know how important it is for parents to feel confident about the person caring for their children. My goal is always to provide the same level of patience, safety, respect, and genuine care that I would want for my own child.
