I have spent many years babysitting younger siblings/ families members as a teenager. I was a personal care assistant for a child on the autism spectrum for 3 years. Including getting him on and off the bus, making sure his homework was done, having meals prepared and helping with light housework. I am currently a on my third year as a lead teacher in a 2 year old classroom at a daycare center. On a day to day basis I do cleaning, diapers, group time, entering daily activities like pictures and goals into an app for parents to see! I am around 7-14 toddlers daily so I am comfortable being around multiple children at once. I just received my infant/toddler CDA credential in October of 2025!

Hello there, My name is Lisa. I've comfortable with all ages ranges. I try to keep kids engaged in activities other than screen time but I know that's tricky these days. I recently resigned from an Assistant Management role to go back to school for Acupuncture and Chinese medicine. Looking for some babysitting gigs or pt nannying. Open to last minute date nights. Comfortable with animals as I'm sure you can tell by my profile photo 😆. I go back and forth between Maple Plain and Bloomington so I'm open to location.

Lisa worked for us twice within the span of a week, both on super short notice due to our other childcare falling through at the last minute. She was great with our kids, conscientious and attentive to our instructions for caring for them, and took our rambunctious dogs in stride. She was very responsive to messaging, upbeat, and easy to connect with. Our kids took to her right away, and she seemed to genuinely enjoy the time she spent with them too. We really appreciated that she also accommodated a phone interview the night before her first day with us to help us feel at ease about the last minute hire. Highly recommended, and we definitely hope to work with her again!

I am a dedicated and experienced nanny with 10 years of paid childcare experience. My passion for working with children began at the age of 13 when I started babysitting for two young girls in my hometown. What began as an occasional babysitter, it quickly grew into a more meaningful, long-term position that lasted five years. During that time, I formed a close bond with the family and developed a deep appreciation for the positive impact a caring caregiver can have on a child’s life. After high school, I took on a summer nanny position before going off to college. I attended the University of Wisconsin Eau- Claire for the first two years and continued my education online through the University of Phoenix. While attending college, I continued to babysit and take on temporary nanny positions. Upon returning to Minnesota, I transitioned into professional nannying as a full-time job. I cared for a four-month old baby girl, handling all aspects of her daily care, including diapering, bottle feeding, tummy time, naps, walks and age appropriate stimulation and play. Although the family relocated after a few months due to a job change. The experience reinforced my commitment to providing attentive, nurturing care during the critical early stages of development. For the past two plus years, I’ve had the pleasure of nannying for two wonderful girls, currently age nine and twelve. In this role, I manage a wide range of responsibilities, including: • School transportation • Homework assistance • Meal planning, preparation, and packing lunches • Preparing and serving nutritious dinners • Kids laundry, cleaning/tidying up family spaces, dishes and organizing children’s spaces • Change the girls bedding • Switch winter clothes to summer clothes • Go through the girls clothes to determine what they’ve outgrown • Driving to extracurricular activities • Scheduling and driving to appointments • Set up play dates • Occasional overnights • Assist with packing and unpacking when the family goes on trips I am genuinely passionate about supporting children through their formative years. I believe childhood is a vital period of growth, creativity, and self-discovery, and I strive to create a safe, engaging, and enriching environment where children feel valued and empowered to explore their interests and development of the children in my care. I look forward to bringing my experience, warmth and dedication to a new family.

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

Julia worked with our three boys (.5, 2, 3.5) and was great! She was always engaged with the kids and they loved having her with us. You can tell she really cares about your little ones and is empathetic and responsible. I'd definitely recommend Julia.

We hired Christine as a summer nanny for our two autistic children and could not have been happier with her services. She was flexible, caring, and very supportive of their unique needs! Christine kept the kids active and helped to support their social and emotional development. We highly recommend her services!

Diana aka Nana took care of my daughter for 9 years. Diana is kind and has such a good heart. She did art projects with my daughter and read to her constantly. She is very patient, reliable and was flexible with my schedule as a nurse. She was respectful of my home and family. We would come home from work to find treats she had baked for us. She is a giver and spreads love and humor to everyone she meets. As our daughter got older we no longer needed her to Nanny for us. She and her husband have become a part of our family and will be forever.

I am a semi-retired occupational therapist with 38 years of working with children in public schools. I have three grown children of my own and am married and have a dog too. I love caring for children and my focus is on helping them play and do the activities that are developmentally appropriate for them. I am looking for part time work to help out parents so they can get a night out, attend appointments, or get some extra help around the home. I also do well with children with special needs.
