Hi! my name is Mariah and I live in Rochester Hills. I am 24 years old and am a junior at the University Of Michigan. I have my substitute teaching license permit as well as my certified nursing assistant license. My major in school is Health and Human Services and minor is in psychology. I am going to school for medical social work as well as a psych Dr. I love kids and have been babysitting since about 12 years old. I am very involved with youth and have been for some time in varying areas. One area was through my church COGIC Clubs, nursery and Vacation Bible School (VBS). I have volunteered in VBS for about 5 years, COGIC Clubs for 7 years and nursery also 7 years. This brought on a variety of ages, all of which I was very comfortable with. I have worked at a youth day camp every summer for the last 6 years and plan to continue doing so. This camp has a diverse age range and I always enjoy working with and getting to know every individual choosing to come to camp. I am very patient with children which I feel makes a more fun environment and really encourages the child to ask questions and get to know me as well. I am a very good Teacher and love being outdoors. Therefore, taking a child/multiple children to the pool, park, on a walk, playing in the snow or leaves, etc. is a very fun experience for me and the children as well. I am energetic and outgoing so I feel that I can keep up with just about any child fairly well. In short, I just love being around kids. They are awesome and a wonderful blessing to have around. Thanks for taking the time to read my bio. You can contact me at (248) 722-1268

Hello! I'm Emma Holmquist, an experienced and reliable nanny dedicated to creating a nurturing environment for your children. Having recently worked in both nanny positions and at a child care center, I've had the experience of caring for children across all age groups- from infants as young as 6 weeks old to middle schoolers! In my roles as a nanny, I provided care tailored to the unique needs of each family, including cooking a healthy meal, teaching new skills, tidying the house, and providing transportation. At the child care center, I followed a structured routine that included feeding, teaching, outdoor and indoor play, nap time, and engaging activities until pick-up. In addition to my experience as a nanny and child care assistant, I've also worked at a rehabilitation center providing services to those with special needs. I am committed to your child's safety and education, which is evident with my CPR certification and Bachelor's degree in Psychology (completing numerous courses specific to child development).

Hi, my name is Marina and I’m a recent grad from Michigan State! I've been around kids all my life due to having a large family with younger siblings and several younger cousins. I started babysitting within my family then went onto paid experience for friends of the family and neighbors. Soon after, I started to care for children in the Metro Detroit area. Over the last seven years, I've cared for a variety of kids, including a range of ages (0-14). I love being outside playing sports, acquiring new hobbies, and staying indoors reading, watching movies, or playing games on a rainy day! Over the last year, I moved to NYC and have been enrolled in a forensic psychology MA program while also working at a daycare. I have flexible availability and am happy to work with your schedule. I look forward to hearing from you!

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!

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’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 have always had a huge passion to work with kids, I started helping in church child care and loved the experience. I started babysitting for families in the neighborhood I lived in and help lots of family’s out. While in school I took an early childhood class where I helped in preschools and kindergarden classes and made up my own lesson plans. I spent all of my summers in Highschool babysitting a little girl who is now in kindergarten and thriving! A little about my history - I graduated from Brighton in 2022 a year early and continued to help out in my community. My plans are to start college this summer for elementary education but it will be 100% online so I can work around my schedule.
