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*

I love being a sitter because I enjoy spending time with children and helping them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I love getting to know each child’s personality, interests, and routines, and I enjoy creating a fun and positive experience for them while their parents are away. I have extensive experience caring for children and families, both personally and professionally. As a social worker, I have worked with children and families with a wide range of needs and have experience supporting children with different personalities, abilities, and developmental needs. I am also a mom of three daughters, so I have many years of hands-on parenting experience. My professional background has given me strong skills in communication, patience, problem-solving, safety, and understanding children’s individual needs. I am comfortable caring for children of different ages and abilities and know the importance of following parents’ routines and preferences. I am dependable, responsible, attentive, and committed to providing children with a safe and caring environment.

Hello, I'm Mia! I'm a newly high school graduate looking for a youth related job. My most recent job I was working with kids aging from 5-11 as summer camp staff and after school care staff. I also volunteer every Sunday at my church working with the kids ministry from ages 3-10. Other than that, I've worked with kids for years babysitting for family and friends. Ive had CPR and first aid training through health classes in school and for my most recent job. I also love being active and doing various activities/projects, and am always looking to encourage productivity.

Hi! My name is McKenzie Benedict. I am a recent graduate from Prior Lake High School and will be attending the University of St. Thomas next year. I also have a lot of college credits that I completed in high school, so I am definitely able to help out with any homework or summer practice work. In high school I was a fellowship of Christian athletes (FCA) leader, student leader at my church, junior optimist member, laker leaders member, varsity track and field runner, varsity cross country runner, and a soccer player. I have lots of childcare experience. I have been both volunteering and working in childcare for four years. I have been a swim lesson instructor for children of all ages for two years. I have also volunteered at a summer camp for three years. I have been babysitting for many years as well. These job experiences have taught me how to entertain and care for children for long periods of time. Also how to resolve conflicts effectively. I know basic safety and supervision skills as well. I supervise, care for, and entertain all the kids I watch. I love to stay active and busy so I would love to play sports, read books, do crafts, and much more with them. I am definitely a good nanny for children who love to stay busy. I am comfortable with pets as well. I have done a lot of dog watching and dog walking jobs myself. I also currently have a puppy. I am also very willing to clean the house, meal prep, or do any chores. I typically try to clean whenever I am able to while babysitting. I really want to nanny this summer so please reach out if you need one or if you have any questions!

Hi! My name is Jillian and I am a young single mom to a little boy. I have 7-8 years of experience with children, including children with autism, and 6 years of that was paid. I have a passion for helping kids learn about the world and how to learn from it and interact with it. I am aiming to go back to school to become a social worker.

With 5+ years babysitting family and 2+ years paid experience in childcare, I can confidently say I love working with kids and getting to know the different personalities that come with them! I’ve diligently grown my leadership, problem solving, and active listening skills to make the best experience for the kids in my care!

Hi! My name is Jocelyn, and I genuinely love being a sitter because I enjoy helping children feel safe, supported, and cared for while having fun along the way. Watching kids grow, learn, and build confidence is something I find incredibly rewarding, and I take pride in being someone families can fully trust. I have hands-on experience caring for children of different ages, including infants and young children. I currently work in a childcare setting where I’m on my feet for several hours a day, actively engaging with children, supporting their routines, and responding to their individual needs. This has helped me become patient, attentive, and calm in all situations. In terms of skills and training, I’m experienced with infant care, feeding, diapering, nap routines, and age-appropriate activities. I’m responsible, reliable, and communicative with parents, and I always prioritize safety while creating a positive and nurturing environment. I’m happy to follow family routines and adapt to what works best for your child. I would love the opportunity to support your family and care for your little ones!

I have over 30 years of hands-on childcare experience, beginning as a nanny in my teens and continuing through raising my own two sons (now teenagers, super kind, wicked funny) and caring for children professionally and within my extended family. I’ve worked with children of all ages—from newborns through school-age—with extensive experience caring for multiples, including twins, triplets, and even three boys under three years old at one time. I currently care part-time for my 3.5-year-old niece, which keeps my toddler play instincts sharp, my glitter tolerance recalibrated, and my knowledge of construction vehicles surprisingly current. Along with daily routines, I’m experienced in meal preparation, light housekeeping, transportation, coordinating age-appropriate activities, supporting emotional development, and managing high-energy personalities with calm and consistency. Families I’ve worked with often describe me as deeply nurturing, engaging, reliable, and intuitive with kids. I’m known to thrive in organized chaos and quietly redirect toddler-led negotiations before they reach DEFCON snack level. My background also includes homeschooling, facilitating independent learning, and creating enriching play and exploration-based environments. I am CPR/First Aid trained, comfortable with pets, and adept at clear, respectful communication with parents to ensure care aligns with their values, routines, and overall household flow.
