Find experienced babysitters in Alto, MI

Hello! My name is Riley & I just recently relocated to the east side of MI from Grand Rapids for my first Speech & Language Pathologist job. I just recently graduated with my Master’s degree from MSU. I also have a Bachelor of Science from Central Michigan University, & a minor in child development. CMU, I study Communication Sciences and Disorders with a minor in Child Development. A little bit about my experience: I have been nannying/babysitting since I was 14-I am now 24. I have experience with infants (2 months) to age 12, and love all of them! I am certified in CPR and First Aid, have my own car/clean driving record, am able to provide references and a background check upon request, and can cook/clean also upon request. I am also fully vaccinated against COVID-19. I have experience working with twins, multiple infants at a time (volunteered in my church nursery), as well as special needs children (ASD and downs syndrome to be exact). I love kids because they are so upbeat and positive, it is hard not to be happy around them! If you have pets, that's even more of a plus! I looove dogs and have grown up with dogs my entire life. I also am not a smoker! I recently traveled to Reggio Emilia, Italy as part of my Child Development minor and got to learn a lot about the Reggio Emilia/Montessori educational approaches and have since brought that back to the states and implemented it into the care that I give to those I nanny :) I look forward to hearing back from you!

I have recently retired from the field of nursing and am happy to return to childcare. I have years of experience in caring for children of all ages from babysitting as a teen, I worked as a nanny for 2 years in high school, I’ve helped raise my goddaughter and cared for children of neighbors and friends through the years. I am flexible schedule wise and can help out with food prep, animal care, errands and light housekeeping.

Hi! My name is April and I’m 20 years old. My main hobbies/interests include photography and spending time outside. Over the years I’ve been able to travel to many different countries and enjoy plenty of new experiences, which is something I really value. I don’t have any experience with paid childcare, however I do have experience with childcare. I spent a lot of time taking care of children in the neighborhood I grew up in and looking after the younger siblings of my friends! I always have a great time working with kids, I find that my creativity always comes in handy when I’m with kids. I hope to help out to the best of my abilities!

My name is Layne Gadberry and I just turned 30 years old and have lived in Michigan for 4 years. I live with my husband, puppy and 2 (kind of) grumpy cats. 

Hello, my name is Paige! I’ve been caring for children in both professional and personal settings for several years, and I’ve gained experience with toddlers, school-aged kids, and children with unique learning and behavioral needs. My background in psychology and education has given me strong insight into child development, and I love creating activities that are both engaging and enriching, whether that’s helping with homework, reading stories, exploring outdoors, or getting creative with crafts. My goal is to provide more than just supervision, I want to create a safe, consistent, and supportive environment where children can thrive and parents feel at ease. I’m currently working toward a career in social work and child development, and nannying gives me the opportunity to combine my education with my passion for supporting families in practical, everyday ways. I’m dependable, patient, and highly adaptable, which makes me a great fit for busy households. I’m also comfortable helping with transportation, meal prep, and light household tasks to keep things running smoothly. Families I’ve worked with describe me as attentive, nurturing, and genuinely invested in their children’s well-being. I would love the chance to bring my experience and enthusiasm into your home and become a trusted part of your family’s routine.

I have worked professionally in childcare for over 20 years. Working as a private nanny or at day-care centers. I was a lead teacher in the 3 year old classroom at a local daycare. I have worked at two different after-school care programs. I was an Activities Director at a summer school where I tutored children and helped plan field trips. I am also certified in CPR and first aid.

I am CPR certified, First Aid certified, and I am a Registered Behavior Technician. I have strong skills in behavior management, homework help, and skill building. I am a very outgoing, creative, and patient person. I am very passionate about teaching children while having fun doing it. If you have any questions feel free to reach out. I look forward to working with you!

I have baby sat for about 10 years different families. I have degree in Child Development. I’ve had two years in a daycare. I love doing milestones and fun activities for the children.

My name is Leah, and I am twenty years old working on publishing three books while waitressing to bring in money. Having my first nephew at the age of eight I’ve grown up looking after kids and began babysitting very young which transferred into nannying later on, working for my church nursery, as well as the daycare at MVP Sportsplex where I became certified in First Aid and CPR. That’s over seven years of experience with children ages 0-12 years. I have a passion for taking care of little ones and giving them the love and care they deserve while their parents are away. My work is built on mutual respect and trust with parents to create a loving atmosphere for their children. Every child deserves to be heard and cared for lovingly, while this remains true I will kindly correct behavior to help each child grow. I would love to look after your children and help your lives be a little bit easier. I have reliable transportation and am comfortable driving kids. I love getting kids out of the house whether that is to a park or library. I will always clean around the house and am more than happy to assist with laundry or other household chores. Cooking and planning engaging and nurturing activities is something I am more than happy to do. Most of all I wish to give your child safe and nurturing care while their parents are away because I know it’s tough on little ones and I want nothing more than to help their time be filled with fun, love, and support!
