Find experienced babysitters in Battle Creek, MI

Hello, my name is Dawn. I am 56 years young, married & a homemaker. I have a successful, 23 year old son & a wonderful husband. I have been babysitting children of all ages since I was 14 years old, from infants to pretweens, in addition to the experience of raising my own child full time. When he was old enough, neighboring & school friends would come over to our house, at which point I would then become the official babysitter for them. For the last 1-1/2 years, I have been babysitting a beautiful, intelligent 10 y/o girl, M-F every morning before school. I then drop her off at school & wait to make sure she is safely inside before I leave. Previous to this job, I was simultaneously a part time nanny to an adorable 16 month old little boy 2 days a week for 2 years, as well as a part time nanny 2 other week days to a sweet 3 y/o little guy & his 1 y/o adorable baby sister for 6 months. I love all my kids, and treat them as if they were my own. It always amazes me how little it takes to put a lot of joy in a child's day. I can provide that, as well as so much more. Every smile a child gives me puts joy in MY day. I took a baby care class at Bronson which included choking, bed, house & car safety. I am CPR & First Aid certified. I am loving, caring, reliable, patient, honest & trustworthy. I will follow your every instruction to the letter. I will help you in any way I can if the opportunity arises or your little one is napping. I never take my eyes off of my kids. Even when they are napping, I check on them regularly to make sure they are safe. I would be honored, if given the opportunity to care for your little one. I am vigilant, loving & respectful. You can rest assured they will be left in the most diligent, reliable, loving and caring hands possible. I exemplify manners & respect. I will guide & encourage him or her through their next steps in the growth process, whatever those may be. Last but not least, my own rules: NO electronics on kid time! I am not on social media of any kind. No one texts me on a regular basis. No visitors! Never answer the door! Doors always locked! I will always have my phone close by in case you call me or I need to call you or in case of emergency. Thank you for your consideration. I wish you the best of luck in your search! Respectfully, Dawn JH

Hi! My name is Brooklyn Pryor, and I’m 22 years old! I’ve always loved working with kids, and growing up with younger siblings made caring for children feel very natural to me. I’ve babysat for four different families and truly enjoy getting to know each child and creating a fun, safe, and comfortable environment for them. During my last two years of high school, I attended the Calhoun County Career Center through the Education Academy program. As part of the program, I worked as a teacher’s aide at four different elementary schools throughout Calhoun County, gaining hands-on experience working with students in grades K–5. I am also CPR & First Aid Certified! For the past two years, I’ve been working as a Licensed Esthetician at Design Studio East. As things begin to slow down at my full-time job, I’m looking to take on babysitting in the mornings before I head into work. Im available M-F 7:00am-12:00pm but my schedule is somewhat flexible, so I’m happy to discuss other times if needed!! A little about me: I love kids, traveling, animals, crocheting, nature walks, cooking, and baking! I’d love the opportunity to become someone your family feels comfortable and confident leaving their little ones with.☺️ If it’s easier, feel free to message me directly at 269-832-3532 with any questions or to set up a time to meet!!

I worked in a daycare setting in my home town for about a year and half and while I was in school I went to CACC and was set in a daycare setting with infants and toddlers. I babysat kids aged 5-9 while babysitting in my home town. I also used to babysit my siblings growing up too, as I am the oldest. I love being a babysitter because I enjoy spending time with children and helping them learn, grow, and have fun in a safe environment. It’s rewarding to build positive relationships with kids, encourage their creativity, and be someone they can trust. Im not currently certified anymore but I did take a course on CPR.

Caring for children and supporting families through reliable, high-quality care is my main goal. With two years of experience, I have developed a patient, calm, and creative approach to supporting children aged one to 12. I also worked at Jumpstart childcare for 5 months, and have worked at kindercare for a little over 8 months now. I also have tons of babysitting experience! My background includes Early Child Development coursework, which informs how I engage with your little ones. I hold CPR Training and First Aid Training certifications to ensure a safe environment. I can enjoy playing outside, educational games, and puzzles/other things to keep children active and curious. I am very comfortable enforcing your household rules and am happy to assist with light housekeeping or crafts. I prioritize clear communication, providing regular updates via text or phone calls to keep you informed. I truly look forward to becoming a positive, supportive presence in your family's daily life.

Hi! My name is Molly and I live in the Galesburg/Augusta/Comstock/Richland area. I am a stay-at-home mom to 3 children whom I homeschool. I am looking to babysit 1 to 2 children part time from my home!

Why do you love being a sitter? I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy helping children learn, grow, and feel supported. I love creating fun, engaging days where children can learn through play, creativity, reading, outdoor activities, and everyday experiences. I enjoy getting to know each child's personality and interests and creating a safe, nurturing environment where they can be themselves. Building a trusting relationship with both children and their families is one of my favorite parts of childcare. What experience do you have? I have professional childcare experience working with children of various ages, including infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school-aged children. I have worked as a nanny, operated my own childcare business, and worked as a Lead Teacher in an early childhood classroom. Through these experiences, I have cared for multiple children, supported daily routines, planned age-appropriate activities, prepared meals and snacks, assisted with children's organization and laundry, and communicated with families about their children's needs and development. What skills and training do you have? I am CPR and First Aid certified and have training and hands-on experience in early childhood education and development. I am comfortable with infants and toddlers, diapering, feeding, naps, potty training, children's routines, developmental activities, and managing multiple children. I am organized, dependable, patient, creative, energetic, and comfortable taking initiative. I also enjoy incorporating reading, arts and crafts, sensory activities, music, outdoor play, and educational activities into childcare.

I love being a sitter because I truly enjoy spending time with children, helping them learn, grow, and have fun in a safe environment. Every child has a unique personality, and it’s rewarding to build connections with them and see their confidence and creativity develop. I find joy in creating engaging activities and making sure kids feel cared for and supported. I have experience working as a camp counselor, where I was responsible for supervising and engaging up to five children at a time, ranging from ages 2 to 14. In this role, I organized activities, ensured safety, and provided guidance tailored to each age group. This experience taught me how to manage different personalities and needs, keep children entertained, and maintain a positive and safe environment. I am CPR and First Aid certified, which means I am trained to handle emergency situations and provide immediate care if needed. I have strong skills in communication, patience, problem-solving, and multitasking. My background as a camp counselor gave me valuable skills in activity planning, behavior management, and conflict resolution, all while fostering a fun and nurturing atmosphere for children.

Children bring joy, creativity, and curiosity to the world. They learn quickly, ask thoughtful questions, and often inspire those around them with their imagination and honesty. Supporting their growth through education, kindness, and encouragement can have a lasting positive impact on society. Music is another important part of life that connects people across cultures and generations. It can express emotions, tell stories, celebrate traditions, and provide entertainment. Many people use music to relax, focus, or feel motivated during daily activities. Whether through singing, playing instruments, or simply listening, music has the ability to bring comfort and inspiration. Together, children and music represent hope, creativity, and human connection. They enrich communities by encouraging learning, emotional expression, and shared experiences, making everyday life more enjoyable and meaningful for people of all ages around the world.

I love doing hands-on activities with kids as well as quiet activities as well. I am able to meal prep and help with household tasks as well. I have my own car for transporting kids if need be. I have CPR and basic First Aid training.
