Susan E., Babysitter in Lakeville, MN 55044 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.

Susan was great with my littles. They adapted to her right way and I felt comfortable with the way she interacted with my children.

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.

Daisha J., Babysitter in Lakeville, MN 55044 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.

I have been babysitting since I was 14 years old, I have experience with infants- elementary age. I took care of twins 3 months until they were 3 years old, frequently babysitting them. I have a natural talent with kids, and I have pets as well, therefore I can take care of them. I like to clean and cook and I am great at multitasking. I am very playful, and I tend to be a kid at heart, I am also very patient with kids, and love to watch and help kids learn.

Lauren was communicative and responsible, our 3 boys loved having her and we would definitely have her back! She jumped right into play with them, and found ways to quickly connect with them over their interests. We would recommend!

Sara B., Babysitter in Lakeville, MN 55044 with 1 year of paid experience

A little bit about me Hello, My name is Sara, and I'd love to share a little about myself. I have had the privilege of working as a Critical Care Registered Nurse for over 26 years. While becoming a nanny may seem like quite a career change, I have truly found joy in caring for children and supporting families in a more personal way. I was previously employed full-time by a wonderful family, caring for their 2-year-old toddler. In addition to providing attentive childcare, I assisted with meal preparation, light housekeeping, daily walks, and planned outings that encourage learning, socialization, and fun. Although my professional title has not always been "nanny," I have extensive experience caring for children of various ages, from infants to older toddlers. My nursing background has provided me with exceptional skills in safety, patience, communication, and the ability to respond calmly and confidently in any situation. I take pride in creating a nurturing, engaging, and safe environment where children can thrive while giving parents peace of mind knowing their little ones are receiving attentive and compassionate care. I especially enjoy helping children learn age-appropriate skills such as the ABCs, counting, colors, shapes, sight words, and early problem-solving through play, reading, and everyday activities. As both a caregiver and healthcare professional, I understand the importance of trust, reliability, and open communication with families. My goal is to support not only the children in my care but also the parents by helping make daily life run a little more smoothly. Thank you for taking the time to learn a little about me. I look forward to the opportunity to support another family and help their children learn, grow, and thrive. Warmly, Sara *Recommendation letter upon reaching out to me*
