Sittercity helps Howard Lake families find the best babysitters

Hi, I'm Kelley and I love kids! I'm twenty one and I have almost ten years of experience in childcare. I am CPR, first aid and pca certified. I babysit for families, help in my church nursery, and I've done childcare for my bible study, worked at an after school childcare center, have done some pca work, and have held several nanny jobs. I have a passion for kids, and I'm happiest when I'm with them. I plan on working with kids as a career choice. Children are amazing, and I just love spending time with them. I enjoy playing games with them, reading to them, playing pretend, playing outside and doing outdoor activities and educational toys/games! I think they are so cute and fun! I'm responsible, mature and reliable, but also love to have fun with them! In my free time I like to babysit, be outside, go shopping and hang out with friends.

Hi, I'm Kara — a highly experienced caregiver, nurse, nutritionist, mother of three, and lifelong nurturer with a passion for helping families thrive. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Nursing and a degree in Dietetics (Food Science and Human Nutrition). I’ve worked as a school nurse, public health nurse, hospital nurse, and case manager. I’ve also worked as an independent nutritionist, helping many mothers and fathers discover practical, nourishing ways to feed their families with confidence. Before raising my own children, I was a dedicated nanny for many years. I bring a unique combination of warmth, structure, creativity, and energy into every home. I was raised on a farm in Iowa, started babysitting early, and still have a close relationship with the family I nannied for growing up. My life is rooted in service, faith, and joyful homemaking — I love preparing homemade, nutritious meals and also enjoy gourmet cooking. Managing a home, gardening, and creating a peaceful, well-run household are things I truly enjoy. I also run an apothecary business, handcrafting herbal products for natural health and wellness. I’m highly active and in very good shape — certified in Pilates and passionate about yoga, hiking, biking, and outdoor adventures. I love engaging kids in age-appropriate activities, whether that’s crafts and science experiments with younger ones or outdoor excursions, baking, art projects, or life-skills support with tweens and teens. I enjoy connecting with older children through meaningful conversation, encouragement, and helping them build independence and confidence. I understand that every child has a unique personality — from energetic explorers to quiet thinkers — and I’m flexible in meeting them where they are. While I’m not an expert in electronics or gaming, I’m happy to learn what they enjoy or provide gentle structure around healthy boundaries and screen time when needed. Whether we’re planning a nature outing, talking through a tough day, or just making a great meal together, I bring creativity, enthusiasm, and patience into everything I do. If you're looking for someone who can care deeply, move quickly, manage your household, and nurture your children’s minds and hearts — I’d love to support your family.

Hi! My name is Elizabeth and I am 26 years old. I have a lot of experience working with kids of all ages, from infants to teenagers. I come from a large family and regularly have done all housekeeping duties at home, such as cleaning, cooking, grocery shopping, laundry, as well as watching the kids. I have 7 younger siblings and babysat them often growing up, as well as for many other friends and families. I have had multiple nanny jobs and worked at daycares in the infant and toddler rooms as well! I have been pediatric and adult CPR and First Aid certified. I also have completed a certified child development course online. I am a single mom of a super chill 1 year old girl(born 6/23). She's a very happy girl and adjusts to new surroundings and people easily. Would you be okay with her coming along with me? I understand if not. I'm currently a nanny for a family with a 2yo and 6m old where I bring my daughter with, but they will no longer need care come September, so I’m looking for another family! I would love to hear back from you and learn more if this position is still available!

I have a big family of my own and I’m also a licensed, experienced elementary teacher. I love doing active things with kids — avoiding screen time whenever possible. I love to go for walks, go to parks, read aloud, play games, and color. My goal would be to leave your house better than you left it while providing a safe and engaging atmosphere for your child / children.

My name is Tori Herrboldt and just moved to Watertown, MN to be closer to my soon to be husband’s family! I also just accepted a job as a k-5 general music teacher in Norwood! Besides students teaching, I have around 2 years of childcare experience being a teachers aid at varies daycare centers! Some of the duties I performed was setting up/cleanup for breakfast and lunch, bathroom duty/potty training, executing activities, watching over children during playtime, and creating a fun environment! I am outgoing, fun, and have a big personality, which comes in handy when working with kids! I also love all things sports and music!

I am 20 years old and currently attending UCCS and living in the Springs but I am from Minnesota! I’ve worked with kids for the past four years and love getting outside and being active with them! Although I also enjoy reading books and playing games indoors when weather doesn’t allow outside play. My availability mainly caters to date nights as I am a student athlete but I’m open to babysitting whenever my schedule allows! I am very comfortable with bedtime routines and taking care of pets if needed!
