Find experienced babysitters in Chelsea, 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.

Hello, my name is Caroline and I am a 22-year-old, college student-athlete at Rochester University. I have been babysitting for 6+ years and previously worked at a daycare. I am also the oldest of 6 children, so I have had a ton of experience with children of all ages, pretty much my whole life. Caring for children is my favorite thing to do! Other than watching/playing with the kids, I will also help with any cleaning around the house, any driving, running errands, etc...

am a professional, full-time nanny with more than 34 years of experience supporting families in the Ann Arbor area. I've cared for children from newborns to tweens and have also raised my own (now adult) son. I specialize in working with busy professional families and pride myself on being exceptionally reliable, punctual, and organized. I have my own dependable transportation and am comfortable managing everything from daily routines to extracurricular schedules. I love engaging with children at every stage-snuggling and reading with babies, building block towers, creating art projects, exploring parks, and supporting their learning and growth. My focus is always on providing a safe, healthy, nurturing environment while building a genuine and lasting connection with each child. As a dedicated career nanny, I request professional, above-the-table pay at a living wage. References upon request.

Hi! My name is Mary. I'm 26 years old, and I'm an alumna from Wayne State University. I majored in geology and minored in dance. I love spending quality time with young ones. For 4 summers (2017, 2018, 2019, and 2022), I was a camp counselor at Living Water Ministries in New Era, MI. Don't worry, 2022 was my last summer! I enjoy teaching and tutoring kids, but also learning from them, too! I also love pets, and I would love to look after them as well. I have two cats of my own, Peridot and Artemis. I think mental and physical activity is necessary for children of all ages, but so is relaxing and giving their minds and bodies a break. I'm excited to meet your little ones!

Hi! I’m Isabela Bonilla, a babysitter based in Allendale, Michigan.

My name is Jessica W. Very nice to meet you! I live in the Dexter/ Ann Arbor area, but am flexible. I have been a babysitter for many years, and within the past year, I’ve been working at a child care program with ages between 10 months- 10 years. While babysitting I’ve gone older than age 10!

I have been taking college classes through the Washtenaw technical middle college in the campus, since my sophomore year of high school! I love learning new things, and seeing how different and wonderful each child is and what their abilities are. :)

Hi, I’m Brynne! I’m a responsible, fun, and attentive sitter with a strong respect for the trust families place in their caregivers. I’m starting medical school next year and I’m interested in pediatrics because spending time with kids is such a joy for me! I bring a thoughtful, creative approach to childcare. I previously worked as a nanny for a little girl in Dallas from ages one to two and have had many babysitting roles since middle school, giving me years of experience with children of different ages and personalities. I’m comfortable with routines like meals, bedtime, homework help, and playtime, and I prioritize clear communication and reliability. My goal is to create an environment where kids feel secure and supported and parents feel confident stepping away.
