Riley D.
- 8 years paid experience

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!

Hi my names Kat! I have been working with kids now for years. I have worked at daycares, childcare centers and been a personal nanny. I currently live in GR (Grand Rapids) and am working as a preschool teacher. I have experience working with kids that are on the spectrum or special needs. I have worked with kids age ranging from new born to teenagers. Currently have CPR training, blood born pathogens and first aid training. I love working with kids/families and have been for years. I have a bachelor’s degree in social work and enjoy working as a team with families to ensure healthy development for their children. I love animals of all kinds and I am very outgoing, caring and laidback. I also do own a car so transportation isn’t a problem. Feel free to message me about any questions you may have. More than happy to do in-person or virtual meetings to see if I am a good fit.

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.

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.

Hi! My name is Shelby, and I bring over 10 years of hands-on experience working with children of all ages. I hold a degree in Early Childhood Education, and caring for kids has always been second nature to me. My background includes everything from infant care to helping with homework and planning fun, developmentally appropriate activities. Children tend to gravitate toward me, and I genuinely enjoy creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment where they can thrive. Whether you’re looking for a dependable babysitter for date nights, weekends, or consistent care, I’d love to be a trusted part of your child’s routine.
