Lavender marie M., Babysitter in Alto, MI 49302 with 13 years of paid experience

Hi, my name is Lavender and I’m 34 years old. I have been a career nanny since 2014 with experience dating back to 2007. I am from a small town in Michigan and have been living in Grand Rapids since 2016 when a live-in position brought me to the area. I have previously worked as a live-in nanny here in Michigan, as well as Hawaii California, Florida + North Carolina. I have extensive experience with newborns in particular, but primarily work with ages 0-2. I am CPR certified and know basic first aid skills (I am willing to become re-certified in first aid if need be). I began working with children at age 13 when I assisted in a family friend's daycare for two full summers. After that, I nannied for triplets during the summer at age 15. I babysat on and off until college, when I got my first full-time nanny job for infant twins. In between nanny jobs, I went back to the corporate world. I was hoping to get in some experience so that when I graduated, I'd have adequate experience to get a good job, but my favorite was always nannying. After graduating college, I worked two career jobs in accounting and finance, but after a year of working in the corporate world again, I decided that nannying was what I really enjoyed. I wasn't happy in my finance jobs and nannying makes me very happy. I adore working with children. I am a very outgoing, charismatic and caring person. I believe if you are happy doing your job, you will be even better at it and nothing makes me happier than working with children. I am currently working for a family full time and will be looking for my next position in August 2025. Feel free to message!

Hello! I am an Early Childhood Special Education Teacher. I am available for after-school care (4:30-9) and any time on the weekends. I chose a career working with children because I love their active imaginations and kind hearts. I enjoy spending time talking with children, making crafts, creating science projects, playing outdoors, exploring nature, reading and learning! Please feel free to contact me if you believe I would make a good caregiver for your child/children!

Kira S., Babysitter in Alto, MI 49302 with 2 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Kira, and I have been working with children full-time for the past two years. My passion for childcare began at a young age when I welcomed my baby brother into my life at 12, and I have continued working with children ever since through babysitting and childcare roles. I have nearly two years of experience working in a daycare setting, including one year in the infant room, and I have cared for children ranging from 2 months to 6 years old. I am very comfortable around animals, as I grew up on a farm, and I enjoy spending time outdoors whenever possible. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your wonderful family!

I am an Aquinas Alumni 2023 & I currently work in the NICU at Helen DeVos Children’s hospital as a nurse tech.

Julia R., Babysitter in Alto, MI 49302 with 7 years of paid experience

Hello, my name is Julia Roberts and I’m 23 years old and I currently nanny Tuesday-Thursday for a family 10am-4pm and I’m looking for a part time nanny position if possible to fill the gaps on Mondays & Fridays and I’d be available all weekday evenings after 4pm. A little about me, I am a very adventurous and out going person with an empathetic and kind heart. I love children and watching them learn and grow into amazing people. I am very patient and respectful and would care for a child as if it were my own. I have two wonderful and loving parents and an older brother who I absolutely adore. My family would describe me as empathetic and happy and my friends would describe me as loyal and genuine. Im auntie to 3 little boys and a girl and I absolutely adore and miss them as I have moved away and now Im in Byron center, Caledonia area. EXPERIENCE: I have nannied for 7 years with many different families with all ages of children from an infant to 15 years old. I currently watch an 11 month old and for a while a 3 year old before he started preschool full time. I would take care of the little ones all day, I would do breakfast, lunch and sometimes dinner with them, I’d do bath times, put them down for naps as well as engage and play with them or go on walks or to the park. I would also occasionally do household chores for the kiddos if needed like laundry and cleaning bottles and picking up their toys. I have volunteered in elementary class rooms and would help the children learn. I have also worked with special needs kids who couldn’t communicate in any type of way or who had anger problems. I’m very good with kids and love taking care of them. SKILLS: CPR and BLS certified: I have taken a CPR course in 2022 at a community college near me, and we practiced on how to do it with adults and infants. I have taken a child care class in college as well. We learned the basics, such as what to do if the child is sick or got hurt from doing something. We learned how to care for them on a daily basis or if it was something more serious such as if they were choking. I have life guard training, so I am a very good swimmer and I would be able to save a child if they got themselves into a situation where that was needed. I am fully Covid vaccinated. I have ALL my vaccinations up to date since I had taken a phlebotomy course through the hospital. I look forward to hearing from you on how I can help your little family grow!

Greetings my name is Hazel, I'm a South African living in the USA, I came to America awhile ago as an au pair and have been au pairing for many beautiful families as I travel from state to state, I'm currently in Kentwood Michigan and hoping to match with another amazing family that I can assist in making their lives easier. My love for kids is through the roof, I was raised in a big family where I made it my duty to be present for all the kids I was surrounded by, so I've been doing this for as long as I can imagine. I am a great listener and a big believer of treating children as humans having a human experience, with real life emotions that matter. I would love to connect with a family that understands this. I am also very informative so definitely look forward to getting pictures and updates of our daily activities as I feel this allows a parent the comfort knowing they are not missing out on their child's life. Communication is key and I make it a priority to have crucial conversations with children and parents that way we are all on the same page. Happy connecting with you. Hazel
