Riley D.
- 8 years paid experience
- 11 miles
Hello! My name is Riley & I just recently relocated to the east side of MI from Grand Rapids for my first Speech & Language Pathologist job. I just recently graduated with my Master’s degree from MSU. I also have a Bachelor of Science from Central Michigan University, & a minor in child development. CMU, I study Communication Sciences and Disorders with a minor in Child Development. A little bit about my experience: I have been nannying/babysitting since I was 14-I am now 24. I have experience with infants (2 months) to age 12, and love all of them! I am certified in CPR and First Aid, have my own car/clean driving record, am able to provide references and a background check upon request, and can cook/clean also upon request. I am also fully vaccinated against COVID-19. I have experience working with twins, multiple infants at a time (volunteered in my church nursery), as well as special needs children (ASD and downs syndrome to be exact). I love kids because they are so upbeat and positive, it is hard not to be happy around them! If you have pets, that's even more of a plus! I looove dogs and have grown up with dogs my entire life. I also am not a smoker! I recently traveled to Reggio Emilia, Italy as part of my Child Development minor and got to learn a lot about the Reggio Emilia/Montessori educational approaches and have since brought that back to the states and implemented it into the care that I give to those I nanny :) I look forward to hearing back from you!

I love to have fun and be really silly! I have 3 adult children. Well 4 when you count my daughter-in-law. Who I consider as my second daughter! I am a grandma of identical twin girls! My little beauties! They are all the lights of my life! We are all very close and I’m very proud of all of them! I am a widow so my time is my own. I love children of all ages. I enjoy pets as well. I have a little pug named Frankie and a kitty named Bowdie. I’ve worked at daycares for years and thought I might try doing in home daycare. So took care of a family of five for over a year till they didn’t need me. Now I’m with a family of five again but only babysit 18 hours a week. I’m available Monday thru Thursday 9-3 and weekends. I’m up for anything anytime! I love to do whatever the children enjoy. After all it’s all their time. I don’t spend time on my phone or watch tv. I may have the tv on once in a while for a special movie or children’s program. I do however like to have music playing at times that we can dance to and just go a little crazy! I do like to know if you have specific activities you would like me to do and what your expectations would be. Thank you for considering me as a caregiver for your most precious possessions!! I will care for them as I would my own children. With much love!! Thx! Blessings! Also I love animals, all kinds. Also have had a background check done on this cite.

Paige K.
- 13 years paid experience
- 13 miles
Hello, my name is Paige! I’ve been caring for children in both professional and personal settings for several years, and I’ve gained experience with toddlers, school-aged kids, and children with unique learning and behavioral needs. My background in psychology and education has given me strong insight into child development, and I love creating activities that are both engaging and enriching, whether that’s helping with homework, reading stories, exploring outdoors, or getting creative with crafts. My goal is to provide more than just supervision, I want to create a safe, consistent, and supportive environment where children can thrive and parents feel at ease. I’m currently working toward a career in social work and child development, and nannying gives me the opportunity to combine my education with my passion for supporting families in practical, everyday ways. I’m dependable, patient, and highly adaptable, which makes me a great fit for busy households. I’m also comfortable helping with transportation, meal prep, and light household tasks to keep things running smoothly. Families I’ve worked with describe me as attentive, nurturing, and genuinely invested in their children’s well-being. I would love the chance to bring my experience and enthusiasm into your home and become a trusted part of your family’s routine.

I have several years of experience caring for children from infant through elementary age. I ran my own licensed daycare for 10 years. I have worked at daycare learning centers, and have also been a nanny for several families. I also took care of my grandson for his first 2 years full-time. I took care of my twin granddaughters. I watched a toddler once a week on Fridays. I've watched her for 2 years, since she was 3 months old. The job ended October 17, as the mom will have Fridays off. I’m currently looking for a once-a-week childcare job. Thank you for looking at my profile. I look forward to hearing from you.

I recently had my first child and have decided it’s time to transition into a job that he can be with me. Some background of my experience: After my senior year of high school, I nannied for my moms' coworker. She has 3 children, 2 boys 1 girl. The oldest was 9, the middle was 5 and the youngest was 1. When COVID started and shut down my college I nannied for her again due to her daycare provider shutting down. I also grew up helping my grandma in the daycare she owned. I hold a CNA license, but am taking a break from healthcare. I have a bachelors in child development. I encourage more play than screen time and when weather permits love being outside. I will ensure the safety of your child/children. I also ensure they have fun while I am with them.
