Hi! My name is Bre, and I have a passion for helping children learn, grow, and feel supported. I have experience working with kids as both a children's counselor and an ABA therapist, where I've developed skills in creating fun, engaging, and structured environments tailored to each child's unique needs. I'll soon be starting my master's degree in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) while also taking American Sign Language (ASL) classes because I'm passionate about continuing my education and becoming the best advocate I can be for children and families. Whether we're playing outside, doing crafts, helping with homework, or simply having fun together, I strive to provide a safe, patient, and encouraging environment where every child feels valued and understood. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family!

Ні, Former substitute teacher in the PHM District and South Bend Community Schools. Former middle school science teacher and two year full-time caregiver. I'm looking for ways to supplement my income. Occasional sitting has worked well for me and allows the flexibility I need in order to help with my out-of-town grandchildren and support my four adult children. I've passed multiple background checks as well as CPS history checks in order to work in the schools. CPR and standard first aid certified. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss caring for your loved ones to see if we’re a good fit. Please reach out to me if you are interested or have any additional questions. Fully Vaccinated including RSV and Covid, including boosters. Extremely reliable, conscientious, and punctual. Regards, Martha

Martha is FABULOUS. She watched our two children when they were under 1 and 2.5-3. I would hire her again in a heartbeat. She took excellent care of the children and I could trust her completely. Our oldest still speaks of her fondly. She never turned on the TV and always engaged with the children. Reliable and responsible.

Hello! My name is Tiffany. I love children and I would love to care for yours! Just read on to see if we are a perfect fit: I am a 38-year-old married, Christian woman, and I have more than 25 years of paid experience with children of all ages, including newborns. I now have 3 fully grown bonus children and 4 younger kiddos still at home. I have a safe and reliable vehicle, and my husband and I do not smoke, drink, nor curse. We are involved members in our church and strive to live our lives pleasing to God, while loving others! I have about 3 years of CNA experience (both in a nursing home and hospital setting) that required First aid/CPR certification. I was working on a Trauma/Med Surg floor right before I moved here to Indiana. After having my own children, I decided to pursue a different path that was more flexible for our needs, so I provide childcare and other services to help supplement income. I have always loved children and grew up caring for many nieces and nephews, due to having much older siblings. I also did a lot of babysitting through my adolescent years for neighborhood families, and even my school bus driver. I have previous experience working as a Sunday School teacher at my church and I currently volunteer in the church nursery. I also have experience as an assistant director at a daycare and have earned my B.A. in Business Administration. I am looking to help with Occasional/As-Needed/Date Night/Back-Up childcare in your home or I can offer part-time babysitting in my home in Elkhart, located near the hospital. I am currently homeschooling one of my children and would not mind teaching yours as well! In my years of experience, I have cared for up to 10 children at a time, sick children, and special needs children (Autism/ADHD/Charge Syndrome/MR/CP, etc). I have experience with all ages including newborns and have even worked several overnights, while parents were working or out of town. I consider children to be a blessing and I love helping others! I also help with House/Pet-sitting, Cleaning, Cooking, Groceries/Other Errands, and Odd jobs when available. You can reach me by phone call or text at 574 370 7253 or shoot me an email me at sassychef135@yahoo.com. Thank you for your consideration, Tiffany

I love being a sitter because it gives me the opportunity to build meaningful connections with kids while helping families feel confident and supported. I enjoy creating fun, safe, and engaging environments where children can learn, laugh, and feel cared for. I have extensive experience working with kids of all ages, from infants to pre-teens, and I adapt easily to different personalities and routines. Over the years, I’ve developed strong skills in communication, patience, and problem-solving, which help me handle anything from daily care to unexpected challenges. I’m certified in CPR and first aid, and I also know how to swim, which gives families peace of mind during outdoor or water activities. Whether I’m helping with homework, playing games, or sticking to bedtime routines, I always make it a priority to be reliable, caring, and attentive. Babysitting truly brings me joy, and I take pride in being someone families can count on.

Greetings families! I am an experienced babysitter who would love to become a part of your family! I have been babysitting for more than 10 years and have experience with children of all ages (newborn and older), special needs children, and multiples. I have worked with many great families (most who have unfortunately outgrown the need for a sitter)! Your children's safety is my number one priority. I enjoy spending quality time with the children I babysit; I am patient, kind, and understanding. We will play games, sing songs, use our imagination, and do arts and crafts. I am willing to take the kids on outings, if that is something you're comfortable allowing. I can also help with educational activities, homework. and tutoring. I am able help out around the house as needed (i.e., cooking, laundry, dishes, etc.). I have a full-time job, but am available evenings and weekends. I'm the perfect fit for a family looking for an occasional sitter, who their children can grow to know and enjoy spending time with when mom and dad can't be there. I have had CPR and First Aid training, am an excellent swimmer, and have a clean driving record. You will find I'm extremely reliable and dependable. I'm willing to complete a background check and can provide references. I'm happy to answer any questions you may have and look forward to hearing from you soon! Thank you for taking the time to review my profile!

Hi! My name is Paula, and I’m a mom, college student, and experienced childcare professional with many years of experience caring for children of all ages. My background includes nannying, babysitting, working in preschool settings, and supporting children in an elementary school environment. I’m currently pursuing my bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education because working with children is something I truly enjoy and hope to continue doing throughout my career. I also work as an Educational Assistant with Penn-Harris-Madison, where I support students throughout the school day with academics, routines, and individualized needs. Before working in the school system, I spent years nannying and babysitting for families, along with working at The Goddard School with children from infants through preschool. These experiences have given me a strong background in child development, age-appropriate activities, routines, and creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for children. I’m also a mom of three, including my newborn daughter. I’m looking for a family who is comfortable with me bringing my newborn along while I provide care for their children. I think this can be a really wonderful setup, especially for families with younger children, because they get the opportunity for social interaction while still receiving attentive, one-on-one care. I’m very comfortable managing multiple children, maintaining routines, and making sure every child feels seen, included, and cared for. I love getting outside, reading, doing crafts and activities, playing, and finding fun ways for children to learn through everyday experiences. My goal is always to create an environment where children feel safe, loved, encouraged, and excited to learn. I’m currently looking for a childcare opportunity that fits within my school and work schedule. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and provide your children with the same patience, care, and attention I would want for my own.
