Valerie R., Babysitter in Chelsea, MI 48118 with 12 years of paid experience

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.

Sophie K., Babysitter in Chelsea, MI 48118 with 4 years of paid experience

Hi! I’m Sophie, an undergraduate nursing student at the University of Michigan with 3 years of professional childcare experience and a lifetime of experience caring for individuals with special needs. My sister has significant disabilities, so caregiving has always been a meaningful part of my life and has shaped who I am. During the summer, I work part-time at a childcare center where I’ve been employed since 2023. Through my role, I care for children ranging from 2 months to 10 years old, giving me experience with infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school-aged kids. As a nursing student, I maintain current CPR and First Aid certifications and complete annual training and health requirements for clinicals, including drug screenings and TB testing. I have also completed infant safe sleep training and child health and safety education. I genuinely love spending time with children and strive to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment! I believe in going above and beyond to support each family’s unique needs. Having grown up in a home where caregivers were an important part of our daily life, I understand the trust families place in someone caring for their children. Thank you for considering me!

Jessica W., Babysitter in Chelsea, MI 48118 with 6 years of paid experience

My name is Jessica W. It is very nice to meet you! I live in the Dexter/ Ann Arbor area, but I am flexible. I have been a babysitter for many years, while babysitting I’ve watched children through the ages of 0-12. I love working with children, and watching how each of them learn to express themselves and how they can work towards different goals. I am 22 years old and have graduated from Washtenaw Community College with my associates in Early Childhood Education! I have also recently become a mom of a beautiful baby girl who is 6 months old! I have work with many infants beforehand but have grasped a completely new concept of infant lifestyle! A little bit more about me, I love to be outside enjoying beautiful Mother Nature. I am very into sports as I played many throughout my childhood and high school/college! I enjoy reading and writing, and spending lots of time doing all these with my daughter and family! I would love to hear from you if you think I’m a good fit for your family! Thank you so much for taking the time to learn a little bit about me!

I am a retired teacher looking to work with young children. I have over 25 years of experience working with children in the public education setting. I also have multiple years working in early childhood settings or preschool settings, including infant care. I recently worked for a family in Traverse City, Michigan during the 2026 summer months. I started working with the family when the baby was three weeks old. It was so joyful! I live in Ann Arbor during the school year and in Traverse City during the summer. I hope to connect with families that need care during the school year. I’m a loving and caring person who just loves seeing children develop.
