Find experienced babysitters in Brighton, MI

Hi, my name is Valerie and I am interested in part-time childcare work. I am a mom of 5 Vikings ( as my husband and I call them). My two oldest have moved out, and I have 2 in High School and 1 in Community College. I have been a stay-at-home mom for (most of) 23 yrs. I started following my kids to school, and volunteering in classrooms until the school finally hired me! When I realized that my kids would rather be with their friends I decided it was time to get out of the house. My neighbor agreed and offered me up as a nanny for friends of hers. I obtained my CPR certification and accepted a temporary Nanny position, part-time, for an infant. I so enjoyed my time with a little again! My position ended when circumstances changed and the family moved from the area. Since that first job, I’ve had a family in town for two days for work and hired me to care for their infant for a few days. Then two very lovely families who each only needed me part of the week became my primary jobs and kept my schedule full. Then it happened. A job offer for Husband, in Michigan. Since we are originally from Michigan, we made the very difficult decision to move. Yay Husband. Bummer to leave the families I had been a part of. Pre-Husband and Vikings, I earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Earth Science at Central Michigan University. Being a bit of a wanderer, I found myself in Chicago working at an Ad Agency! My family and I moved to Greensboro about 8yrs ago, and loved having both mountains and Ocean available for our adventures. However, the never ending heat and humidity will not be missed. I enjoy getting outdoors daily, and perhaps it’s the Earth Science background, but I love taking the little ones outside and introducing them to the trees, flowers, birds, whatever we come across. Kids are such natural sponges, they soak it all in. Having the opportunity to smell or touch or hold something greatly improves their understanding of their environment.

I have a love of children from growing up in a big family and being the oldest. Kids bring lots of happiness and make life more of an adventure. I like to make a difference and show the kids that we can always have fun and learn lots of new things. I have been working in daycares since 2018 and started nannying in December of 2022. I’m also CPR and first aid certified. I worked with newborns up to 10 year olds mostly but more than comfortable with older children. I like to do arts and crafts and be outside as much as possible. I’ve done potty training and know also work to teach sign language!

Hello! My name is Moriah, and I am a dedicated, compassionate babysitter and caregiver with over 12 years of experience working with children from infancy through age 18. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Human Development, and I am First Aid and CPR certified, ensuring your child’s safety and well-being are always my top priorities. I view babysitting as more than supervision — I see it as being extra hands and feet for families, offering protection, care, and encouragement while helping children grow into the best versions of themselves. I bring a calm, nurturing presence, strong communication skills, and an understanding of child development to every family I work with. In addition to childcare, I also have 3 years of professional cleaning experience, allowing me to help maintain an organized, clean, and comfortable environment for your home. I take pride in being reliable, attentive, and supportive, and I look forward to partnering with families to provide safe, loving, and dependable care.

Growing up in a large family, I learned to provide child care from a young age. I have always enjoyed the exuberance and innocence of young kids, and focused my career toward child care even since high school. I like assisting in the mental growth and development of the world’s future! I worked for the public school system in various positions over 6 years, primarily in elementary schools. I have been the lead Teacher’s Assistant in a daycare center and have been an active organizer in children’s programs, including Girl Scouts, as well as church youth groups. I have years experience caring for children, from infants to teens. I am infant and adult CPR and First Aid certified, and am certified through the State of Michigan in Nutrition, Food Safety and Sanitation. I have experience with medical support, such as insulin injections, disabled dependent care, and wound dressing. I have taken courses in childhood American Sign Language and Early Childhood Development, and have studied infant physical and speech therapy. For me, I have three grown children, aging 25-30. I enjoy spending time with my family, playing board games, and doing arts & crafts. I live in Livingston county with my husband of 33 years, our two dogs, and cat. Thank you for consideration, I look forward to hearing from you!

I have worked in childcare since the moment i graduated high school back in 2016. I got a job at Cream of the Crop daycare right away and worked there for about 3 years unfortunately that daycare closed down. After that I started working at Rebbeca’s learning center I began there as an assistant teacher and a few months into the job I got certified lead preschool/toddler/ infant teacher. I am currently employed by the Waterford School district I am working at a High school in the special ed field. While working in daycare I built some amazing bonds with amazing families who not only trusted me with their children but into their homes. Working with children is something I truly love and would like to continue to do. I am first aid, CPR, certified and I do have a background check.

Hello my name is Maggie! I absolutely adore kids and love getting to be around them! I worked at a daycare for almost 3 years as an infant teacher and absolutely loved my job! I have experience with first aid and cpr! I have a 6 month old nephew who I adore and love to watch and hang out with! I’ve been around babies my whole life and love being with kids and helping them grow :)

I love working with kids and enjoying their company. I love doing crafts, and playing outside doing anything that they like, I can cook and bake as well. I have 6 years of experience with all different ages. I am cpr and stop the bleed certified, I have a car and can drive kids to do fun activities or just run errands for you!

I am a mom of three grown sons, and I have 6 plus years experience in a high school setting working with students with special needs. I have worked closely with individuals with ASD ( my favorite btw ), cognitive impairments, and physical limitations. I also worked in a young adult program working closely on life skills, transportation, and job shadowing and coaching. I enjoyed this role immensely. I am looking to potentially switch from a school setting, to a more private role coaching one on one.

I’ve been working in a very successful childcare center being an assistant teacher in the infant room. I’ve learned about child development, safe sleep, and much more. I love helping kids grow and getting to know them and being able to watch the progress. I am very familiar with state licensing requirements which will prioritize safety/learning. I have the most experience with younger children however i’m open to care for all ages. I love cats, not so fond of dogs and I’d love to help you with simple household duties.

I love being a sitter because kids are fun and full of energy and I like helping them feel happy and safe. Babysitting my cousin every day until he was 10 taught me a lot about being responsible and patient. Now spending a lot of time with my step-sister has helped me learn how to understand kids better and connect with them. I’m really good at keeping kids entertained, making sure they follow rules, and being someone they can trust.
