Hi, my name is Heather. I am a 58 yr old Grandma & Mom. My youngest son is in college studying for Electrical Engineering. I am a very outgoing person. I am easy to get along with, a very positive person, very efficient & I can multi task. I am looking at being available anytime in the evenings & anytime day or night on the weekends & I could be flexible for daytime during the week. I started babysitting when I was 9. I have 3 grown children of my own & 7 grandchildren. I enjoy spending time with all of them & with all kids of all ages & people. I enjoy playing board games, puzzles, reading books, arts & crafts, playing outside & going for walks & pretty much anything that is safe & fun to do with the kids. I was a Cub master & a Den leader for 5 years. I was a Soccer Coach for my oldest sons soccer team for 5 years. I enjoy helping others of all ages. I have volunteered & had helped the teachers at the schools when my children were there. I am a Nanny as well. I do have experience with Autism children & ADD & ADHD… & I could help with homework. I do enjoy helping others when needed. I always come with a positive energetic attitude & a smile.

Hi there! I'm a recent graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology and am now a Doctor of Physical Therapy student. I’ve been babysitting and nannying for over 10 years, caring for children from 6 months to 15 years old. I also have experience coaching kids (ages 2–16) and working with adults with disabilities (18+), which has given me a strong foundation in patience, adaptability, and empathy. In addition to childcare, I'm a certified personal trainer and nutrition specialist, so I love encouraging healthy habits and active play. I'm CPR/AED and First Aid certified for infants, children, and adults, and always prioritize safety and well-being. Outside of work, I enjoy being outdoors, staying active, baking, and spending time with my many nieces and nephews. Whether it’s helping with homework, getting involved in sports, or just relaxing with a good book or movie, I love being a positive role model and supportive presence in children's lives. I'm excited to bring my energy, experience, and care into your home—and I look forward to connecting with you!

I have been babysitting since I was about 12 years old. I have past experience with working in a daycare as well as nannying. I grew up with four little brothers which allowed me to have experience with taking care of multiple children. I'd love to answer any questions you may have so feel free to look through my bio. Thankyou!

I’m currently on a short break from college and will be returning in December to continue pursuing my degree in Criminal Justice. Right now, I’m in Arizona for the Army, but I’ll be back home in early October. I have experience caring for children of different ages, from infants and toddlers to school-aged kids, including watching multiple children under three at the same time. My background in the Army has also provided me with emergency medical training and basic first aid skills, which give me confidence in handling unexpected situations calmly and safely. In addition to childcare, I enjoy keeping spaces clean and organized and don’t mind helping with errands or light household tasks. I genuinely love supporting families and creating a safe, positive environment for kids to grow and have fun.

Children are delightful! Now that mine are grown and I don't have grandchildren yet, I would be pleased to spend some time with your children while you enjoy a night out or a weekend away. Also feel free to contact me if your regular daycare is closed for a period of time, or if your child is sick and you can't take them to daycare. I'm adept at staying awake overnight, so I could help you with late night feedings of newborns or monitoring of preemies while you get a good night's sleep! I also have experience with colicky babies, intense toddlers, spirited children, and children with challenging behaviors, so I'm here if you just need a break! I have decades of experience working with children - I'm currently a licensed substitute teacher for the school district, and over the years I've been a sub a local preschool, a teacher of elementary enrichment classes, a nanny (when I was much younger), a foster parent, and I raised my own two children (now in their 20s). I took multiple child development classes in college and I have had ongoing professional development in subjects related to children and education. I have specialized experience with gifted education/children with high intelligence, twice exceptionalities, asynchronous development, neuroatypical, etc. I have been certified in CPR and First Aid (although I'm due for renewal). I am familiar with issues related to food allergies, and I have experience working with children with special medical needs (my oldest had cancer as a teenager). I tend to be interactive with children rather than just watching or monitoring them. I encourage enriching activities like imaginative (pretend) play, games, music, etc. Even everyday activities like cooking can be an opportunity for learning. I strive to nurture their curiosity, their creativity, and their sense of wonder and joy. Every minute of their childhood is precious since everything they are experiencing is influencing the development of their brain, their personality, and their attitudes toward the world. I am comfortable with pets of all kinds, respectful of diverse cultures, and welcoming of LGBTQIA+ families and individuals. Non-smoking households only, please.
