Find experienced babysitters in Chaska, MN

Hello! My name is Julia, I’m 30 years old, and I was born and raised in Minnesota. I’ve been working as an independent nanny for the past several years for a few families. I have experience with a wide array of ages and ability levels, from infant to teens. I most recently was a nanny part time for a family with three boys under 4 years old. Prior to becoming a nanny, I worked as a direct support professional and independent living skills counselor in a group home and in community based settings. I worked with individuals with severe and persistent mental illnesses and neurodivergent individuals, helping them learn life and coping skills. I have also worked with children with autism and Down Syndrome during my time as a nanny. I am very contentious about safety, and am fully vaccinated against COVID. I have ten plus years of child care and related experience and am CPR and first aid trained. I have also taken child development safety courses including SIDS and head trauma. In my free time I enjoy photography, arts and crafts, gardening, and spending time with my fiancé up north anywhere near Lake Superior. I would love a chance to talk with or meet you and your little one/s! I hope to hear from you soon! Julia

Hi! I’m a lifelong Minnesotan with more than 10 years of experience caring for children of all ages, with a special love for babies, infants, and young children. There’s nothing more rewarding to me than helping little ones feel safe, happy, and loved while giving parents peace of mind. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of building long-term relationships with wonderful families. Some of the children I’ve cared for since they were just six months old, and I’ve remained with their families for years as they’ve grown. I value consistency, reliability, and becoming someone both parents and children can truly count on. Families describe me as kind, patient, trustworthy, dependable, and calm under pressure. I have a high level of integrity and treat every family’s home, routines, and parenting style with respect. My goal is always to create a warm, nurturing environment where children feel secure, engaged, and cared for. I’ve also found that children—and even family pets—tend to feel comfortable with me very quickly. I enjoy reading stories, playing games, encouraging creativity, spending time outdoors, and supporting age-appropriate learning through everyday activities. I’m currently looking for occasional babysitting opportunities, whether you need help with a planned evening out, daytime care, weekend coverage, or last-minute childcare. I understand that life doesn’t always go according to plan, and I’m happy to help when unexpected needs arise whenever my schedule allows. I have excellent references from families I’ve worked with for many years, who can speak to my reliability, professionalism, and genuine care for their children. I’d love the opportunity to meet your family and provide the loving, dependable care your children deserve!

Children are such wonders!! It is such a gift to be able to help them grow up healthy and happy, discover the world, and learn how to navigate well in it. I have worked and volunteered with newborn through elementary age children from the time I was old enough to babysit until I had my own children. When with them discovery, play, and outdoor time is prioritized over screen time. I managed graduate medical education programs while raising my children. I miss time discovering the world and exploring with young children, so decided to seek opportunities to support other families in their journey while I am in graduate school. I love hiking, yoga, rock climbing, farmer's markets, trying new foods, cooking new recipes, reading, learning about other cultures and languages around the world, and exploring outside. Please ask if you have questions. My references are varied as I lost touch with families I nannied for while raising my children. I'm new to Sittercity so I'm still getting things set up and re-certifying in CPR.
