I hired Ms. J because our regular nanny was going on maternity leave. Ms. J has been so good with my boys that I've kept her for a few hours each week even after our regular nanny returned. My boys adore her! All week, I hear, "When is Ms. J coming to play?" She plays imaginative games with my boys, indoors and out. They do art projects. But I also love that she's not a pushover. The boys follow the rules because they don't want to lose out on games and stories with her. Your kids will be entertained, and your house will sparkle. Did I mention that she just jumps in to whatever house project needs attention? Dishes, laundry, mopping--she does it all and manages to play with the kids at the same time. While we would be sad to give up our weekly play date with Ms. J, we would be thrilled to share her with another family and work our days around their schedule.

I am 52 years old. I've raised 2 children and have over 25 years experience as a caregiver. I owned and operated my own daycare for over 10 years and then became a nanny. Childcare is my passion and I am extremely lucky to have had such wonderful jobs in the past. I have also completed Highscope training for infants, toddlers and preschoolers.

Doreena S., Babysitter in Gaines, MI 48436 with 2 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Doreena, and I am a reliable, compassionate caregiver with extensive experience working with children and families. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Human Development and Family Studies and am currently pursuing my Master's in Social Work. My professional background includes one year as a Child Protective Services (CPS) Investigator, where I worked closely with children and families, assessed safety concerns, and connected families with community resources. I also completed two internships with the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, gaining valuable experience supporting children, parents, and individuals facing a variety of life challenges. In addition, I worked for nine months as a Behavioral Technician, providing one-on-one support to a fourth-grade student. In this role, I helped implement behavior support strategies, encouraged positive social and emotional development, and built a strong, trusting relationship with the child and family. I am patient, attentive, and comfortable caring for children of all ages. My education and professional experience have given me a strong understanding of child development, behavior management, emotional well-being, and family dynamics. Whether helping with daily routines, homework, activities, or simply creating a safe and positive environment, I strive to provide dependable, nurturing care that parents can trust. I would love the opportunity to support your family and help your child learn, grow, and thrive.

Brooklyn G., Babysitter in Gaines, MI 48436 with 7 years of paid experience

I became a caregiver because I know that sometimes it's hard to find a daycare that's the right fit for your child. I also understand that some daycares aren't open during the times that parents need them to be. I want to be a person that makes that easier. I also look at caregiving as time to work on my craft as I finish school to become a teacher.

Every child is different and part of what I love about my job is that I get to help each one discover his own strengths, talents and nurture those traits through my educational approach. I absolutely love working with children.

Maddy D., Babysitter in Gaines, MI 48436 with 6 years of paid experience

Unfortunately had to leave a wonderful nanny job because we were supposed to be moving out of state, but opportunities changed so we are staying in Fenton. Sadly the family I was a nanny for put the little girl in daycare and no longer need my help. I am looking for a long term nanny position. I am 29 years old, responsible and experienced with children from infants to 5 year olds. I am good with kiddos and have on and off taken care of children for the last 12 years. My brother is autistic so I’ve taken care of him my whole life, and now have more flexibility with my schedule so I’m looking to help out family’s other than my own, as I’m not needed as much with my brother anymore. I absolutely love animals! So pets are great! I don’t mind minor house keeping and errands. I am also CPR and first aid certified. I look forward to meeting you and your family!
