I am an elementary school teacher and mother of 2 teenagers. I teach from 8-12:00pm and can be available starting around 5:00 during the week. My husband and I live in Lakeville with our 2 French bulldogs. I love spending time with children and animals! I can cook and provide transportation also. I am also looking for sporadic evening babysitting jobs. I have a lot of evening availability. 3 hr. minimum for sitting jobs.

Katy continues to be wonderful as we keep booking her to watch our daughter. She is so caring and my daughter was instantly comfortable with her. We feel so great when she is watching her and we know our daughter is safe and cared for.

I first started on sitter city in 2008. It did not take long to meet and care for the children of several families. Many of the relationships were long term so I became inactive on the site. My last family moved just before Covid took hold. I had just updated my child infant CPR and first aid as I intended to start looking again. That didn’t happen because of Covid so I’m starting again now. I did raise 6 children of my own, worked as a nanny for 10 years and have been actively babysitting for Sittercity families for 10 years. I’m looking for occasional sitting opportunities in my area. My CPR is up to date and I would love to interview with your family.

Mary watched my two kids for an evening out. She was very attentive, got the girls to bed on time, and they had fun. We will definitely reach out to Mary again!

Kenyatta K., Babysitter in Bloomington, MN 55438 with 10 years of paid experience

Growing up in a single family household gave me the opportunity to help raise my brother who is seven years younger than me. I then grew a passion for caregiving and I realized that I want to use my skills to help people and make a difference in their lives. Some qualifications that I have are that I am CPR and first aid certified. I am currently in law school/living in downtown Minneapolis while babysitting occasionally for numerous families. I also have 10+ years of previous nanny/babysitting experience. I am seeking to help a family in need of a caregiver for their children, and I believe with my experience I would be a good fit for a loving and caring family.

Nili B., Babysitter in Bloomington, MN 55438 with 6 years of paid experience

I am a recent college graduate working as a youth outdoor education leader at a local outdoor access and inclusivity-focused organization. I really enjoy working with and caring for kids. I have been babysitting for neighbors and helping with childcare since I was around 10 or 11 years old. I have been a mothers helper for babies only a couple of months old and have worked as a mentor with early high school-aged youth. Through my own high school experience I coached the youngest age group the 3-4 year old's and 5-6 year old's in youth soccer. The past couple of summers I have worked as a Farm and Nature Educator and Counselor at a nature summer camp and work as a Summer Enrichment Teacher at an afterschool/summer program. I am certified and trained in Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED through the American Red Cross. I've always loved being imaginative and creative and engaging with kids in play-based ways when working in childcare. Additionally, I really value my role in encouraging and creating an environment where kids can be curious and safely explore the world around them!

Susan E., Babysitter in Bloomington, MN 55438 with 32 years of paid experience

I am a grandmother of four wonderful energetic children aged 6, two 3 yr olds and a 2 yr old. I often take all four to the park, have picnics and even have wild slumber parties at grandmas house. I love children and truly enjoy playing, being creative and teaching new things. Reading to children is one of my favorite things to do, singing if they’ll let me. I am patient, kind, and nurturing as I know children need this more than anything. Being a grandma has been a true joy for me and I enjoy children and all the laughter and fun they bring.

Maria has a truly special gift for caring for children. Her patience, kindness, and gentle nature make her someone that our children naturally trust and enjoy being around. She treated our children with love, respect, and genuine care, creating a safe and happy environment where they can learn, play, and grow. We can feel confident knowing our children are in caring and capable hands. She is dependable, compassionate, and always goes the extra mile to make both our children feel supported. Anyone would be incredibly fortunate to have her care for their children. Above all, she is a loving and devoted mother, and the same warmth, dedication, and compassion she gives to her own family shine through in the care she provides to others.

Mara is always on time and communicative. If we go too long without a date night, my kids are asking "When will we see Mara again??" Mara is the standard we measure others against when for discussing care for our children.

Daisha J., Babysitter in Bloomington, MN 55438 with 13 years of paid experience

As a new mother it made me remember how much I love children and the joy they can bring. I grew up babysitting the neighborhood children, to helping take on my two younger siblings almost full time by the time I was 15. I have about 15+ years of babysitting under my belt, but this would be a first at professional babysitting and nannying. I love arts and crafts and even started my own business selling my creations to those that shared the same interests my pieces were inspired by. Whether it be going for a walk, playing games, or reading a book, all things can be so much better when you have children to enjoy it with. Your kids might ask you for flips and to spin in circles after being watched by me. For that I apologize in advance but it's so much fun for kids I can't help but do it when asked. If you have any questions feel free to message me and I will respond as soon as I can. Thank you and have a wonderful day.
