Find experienced babysitters in Paw Paw, MI

Hi families! I am Descenya and am 20 years old. I am a student at Kalamazoo Valley Community College. I am CPR certified, and my goal is to find families to become their regular sitter for weekend date days/nights as I will be in school full time and not working. I love children and helping them learn through fun play. I enjoy being able to entertain them and make their time with me a fun and memorable experience! I am very comfortable with all ages from newborn to 10+ years old. I have three years of paid babysitting experience with ages of 6 months to 10 years old and from 1 child to 5 children at a time. I also have experience as a full time nanny for a year+. My duties included but were not limited to meal prep, snacks, diaper changing, nap time, educational activities, outdoor play, and of course cleaning up after myself and the child, etc. I look forward to chatting with you!

Hi! My name is Serena Solis and I am super excited to meet and love on and watch over your little ones. :) I am currently 26 and have been babysitting since I was 13. I am one of 10 kids (yes, you read that right) and I have been helping take care of my little siblings practically my entire life (including newborn twins at 14!) outside of my family I have been babysitting for my family’s friends since I was 13. Outside of babysitting I volunteer in my church’s Sunday School for 11 years (in the nursery and elementary school ages) and I have also been a camp counselor for preschoolers- middle schoolers for years. I love all things girly and fun like American Girl & Barbie and painting nails but I also have 6 brothers and am down to always be outside or playing Mario Kart. My babysitting approach usually depends on the parent’s schedules and what you are comfortable with! I am happy to abide by any rules or schedules you have for your kiddos. I am currently looking for some part time babysitting work here and there. I usually work 8-5 M-F. I am flexible and am happy to answer any and all of your questions!

Hi, I’m Aspen! I am a 19 year old college student. I have a part time job as a behavioral therapist for children with Autism, so I have a lot of experience working with kids! I have also babysat during the summer in high school. I am looking for a babysitting job because I love the memories I make working with kids and I am looking to pick up a few more hours of work.

I have always loved working with kids and my love for that has grown through experiences. I was employed in a preschool setting, I gained a lot of hands on knowledge here. I have also volunteered in a first grade classroom where I assisted with many daily activities. I am also trained in first aid and CPR! Safety is always my first priority so I will make sure both your children and I are safe.

Hi! I’m Leah, a senior in high school who truly enjoys working with kids. Most of my experience comes from babysitting my younger cousins, and those moments are what made me realize how natural it feels for me to step into a caregiving role. I love being the person who can bring excitement, comfort, and fun into a child’s day, whether that means playing games or helping with homework. I currently work as a dining aid in a nursing home. The job has taught me so much about patience and responsibility. Even though I’m still building my babysitting experience, I’m eager to learn more about childcare and what it takes to support families in their day-to-day routines. I’m patient, responsible, and always willing to lend a hand. I’m also CPR certified! My goal is to make things easier for parents while creating a positive, enjoyable environment for their children. I’m excited to grow as a sitter and to be someone families can rely on, knowing their children are in good hands!

I have a B.S. in Public Administration, M.A. in Educational Leadership and K-8 Teacher Certification. I am currently a teacher. I am also a mom and a grandma so I have lots of love and nurturing available to give to your children.

I am a college graduate from Western Michigan University and my major is child and family development. I started babysitting when I was younger so I have a lot of experience. I’ve been an early learning professional for about 6 years. I worked with 0-3, preschool and school age children. I am also CDA certified.

Hi! My name is Maria. I did not grow up with any siblings but always hoped for a younger sibling. Working with kids makes me feel like I have a built in best friend like a younger sibling. I radiate positivity and I love creating art, going on walks outside, dancing to music and doing all the things that make me happy! I have been working in a child care center for almost a year. I typically work with 8-10 kids ages 3 to 4 but I have experience with ages 2 to 5. I love working in a child care center but I am looking to work more one on one with 1 to 2 kids. I am CPR certified and have completed health and safety professional development courses. I am going to school starting in 2024 for early childhood education. Just a silly fun fact about me is I have a cat named Potato and I love the brand "Oh Snap pickles"

Hi all! My name is Maija and I am I 19 year old babysitter/nanny in Kalamazoo Michigan. I graduated in 2023 from Kalamazoo Central. In October 2023 I was a short term paraprofessional in an autism classroom with children ages 2.5-4.5. I have worked for various families with children ranging in age from 6 months to 12 years. I have experience with special needs as well, please read the section on special needs for more details. I love to do arts and crafts! I also try to incorporate learning into play as much as I can. I have experience with home education as I did online schooling for most of high school through KPS. I have also assisted children with their online education as well as schooling prek-kinder using a curriculum. Currently I don't have my license. With that being said, I use Uber or metro often and have always arrived on time. I love to do arts and crafts! I also try to incorporate learning into play as much as I can. For homeschooling families: I did online school all through high school and have helped families with their children's online schooling, if you're a homeschool family le me know and I would be glad to help out with schooling throughout the day. I also have experience teaching directly from curriculums I really love doing arts and crafts! It should be noted that on occasion I do involve paints or markers so having messy play clothes is essential. I also enjoy cooking and baking. I make lots of pancakes with the kids for breakfast. When babysitting one of my cousins we go on lots of adventures. We walk since I live half a mile from lots of stores. We recently visited the museum as well which was a fun adventure. Note: I currently am not licensed. I have had a permit for the last few years but haven't taken the road test. I am planning on taking it in the next few months. When babysitting close family, I do walk with the children to stores or take Uber/Metro to farther away destinations. I am willing on taking children on adventures with proper consent and paperwork from the parents. I am also red cross safe swim certified. I have a passion for working with children with autism and helping them learn. I know loads about PECS and nonverbal communication.
