Hi! My name is Payton and I am a 20 year old who is about to graduate with my BSW. I have worked with children professionally for the past two to three years and personally I am one of the oldest out of 7 siblings (including me). My most recent experience was working at a daycare for a year where I was a support staff for the infants from they were 2 months old to a year and a couple of months. I loved it there and I have references from the teacher I worked with! Plus some other references I’m happy to give! I am CPR certified First aid trained And I have a reliable car If you have any questions I’m happy to answer!

Hello! My name is Kimberly, I am a 19 year old sitter with 7 year experience/3 years paid. I am a dedicated babysitter with a huge passion for nurturing and educating children. I am currently a college student at indiana university receiving my international business and child development majors. My goal is to save money for college and eventually attend law school, and I believe that my experiences with babysitting will not only help me achieve that but also enrich my understanding of child development. I have worked with 5 families over the course of my three years on this app in which i worked with up to 5 kids at a time ranging from ages 4-16. I have also worked as a tutor teaching english, spanish, and history. I have experience with children with disability as well as potty training young ones! I firmly believe that children learn best through interactive experiences rather than screens, and I try my best to engage with them with meaningful activities I am CPR and childcare trained, having completed my training at the age of 13. With experience caring for up to five children overnight, I have developed strong multitasking and problem-solving skills. My approach to babysitting emphasizes safety, creativity, and active participation, ensuring that children are not only safe but also entertained and engaged. In addition to my childcare skills, i enjoying cooking and baking! Although this isn’t something all families look for i enjoy preparing meals and allowing kids to help with small tasks in order to stimulate their minds! I also am a pet owner, caring for my cat and dog. so pets are not an issue and can be also watched! if Furthermore, I founded a babysitting group within my Girl Scouts club, where we charged fees to provide training for other kids interested in learning how to care for younger children. This initiative not only helped us develop our skills but also fostered a sense of community and support among peers. I am excited about the opportunity to create a safe, fun, and educational environment for your children. Thank you for considering me as your babysitter! I am confident that my skills and dedication will make a positive impact on your family.

Kids are quite literally my day job and I wouldn’t have it any other way! I currently work with toddlers at Campus View Child Care Center on the IU campus and have experience caring for children from infancy through elementary age. I’m also a part-time student in the IU School of Education, where I’m working toward my bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education. I’m CPR & First Aid certified, ILEAD qualified, and have completed required trainings through Indiana Learning Paths/FSSA. I also know some basic ASL and love incorporating play, creativity, and learning into my time with children! I’m available Mondays, Wednesdays & Fridays after 6 PM, plus all day Saturday and Sunday. I’d love to be your go-to sitter for date nights, weekend plans, or an extra helping hand!

I love being a sitter because I truly love working with kids and being part of their growth. Watching children learn new things, build confidence, and develop their own personalities is really rewarding to me. I want the kids I care for to grow into strong, independent, and smart humans, and I enjoy helping guide them in a positive and supportive way. I have about six years of experience working with children through daycare, preschool settings, babysitting for family friends, and helping care for family members’ kids. Through these experiences, I’ve worked with a variety of ages and personalities, which has helped me become patient, responsible, and attentive to each child’s needs. Some of the skills I bring include meal planning and preparing snacks, helping with homework, diaper changes, and creating fun and educational activities for preschool-aged children. I also enjoy planning crafts, taking kids to the park, swimming, and other activities that keep them active and engaged. I’m comfortable communicating with parents about their child’s day and needs, and I can help with transportation to places like parks, activities, or doctor’s appointments when needed. My goal is always to create a safe, fun, and caring environment where kids feel comfortable, supported, and excited to learn.

Hi there! My name is Nicki, and I'm 25 years old. I graduated IU in 2019 with a bachelor's in Elementary Education and I have experience in Early Childhood education/care. At an Early Learning Center, I would be in charge of 10+ toddlers, so I am used to watching over multiple children. I have experience in changing diapers, feeding toddlers and infants, CPR/First Aid, nap times / safe sleep, and entertaining/educating children. I also grew up with animals, so I am comfortable around pets of any kind. I specifically have experience with cats and dogs. However, I did want to mention that I will only be able to help out until the end of December, as my healthcare classes will be starting back up. It is still about 5 months away, but I wanted to let you know as soon as possible!

I’m 19 years old and have 8 years of childcare experience. I’ve been babysitting since I was 11 and have worked as a nanny, driving children to camps and activities nearly every summer since I began driving. I’m responsible, patient, caring, and dependable, and I believe in being a positive influence in your child’s life. My favorite part of working with kids is fostering their creativity while keeping them safe and supported. I enjoy creating a fun, positive environment and am also experienced with pets and comfortable helping with everyday household tasks.

Hi! I’m Devyn! 🩷 I have 2 years of professional childcare experience and currently work full-time as a lead infant teacher at a daycare. I absolutely love working with children and creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for them to learn and grow. I’m currently studying Early Childhood Education and working toward my CDA. I’m also ILEAD certified and CPR/First Aid certified. I have experience with infants, toddlers, and preschoolers and am comfortable with feeding, bottles, diaper changes, naps, bedtime routines, playtime, meals, and age-appropriate activities. Since I work during the day, I’m mainly looking for evening, nighttime, and weekend babysitting. I’d especially love to find a family who needs consistent help and someone they can really get to know and trust with their kiddos. I’m dependable, patient, caring, and genuinely love what I do. I’d love to chat and see if I could be a good fit for your family! 💕
