Hi! I’m Taylor, a former 911 dispatcher looking to spend some of my extra time helping local families with childcare. After nearly five years in emergency communications, I’m comfortable staying calm under pressure, handling unexpected situations, and being someone others can depend on. I’m responsible, attentive, patient, and safety conscious, but I’m also happy to get on the floor and play, head outside, do crafts, watch a movie, or embrace whatever adventure your kids have planned for the day! I’m comfortable caring for children of different ages and am happy to help with meals and snacks, bedtime routines, light tidying, and pets. I’m also comfortable with occasional, date-night, or recurring childcare depending on your family’s needs. I know how much trust it takes to leave your children in someone else’s care, and my goal is for you to feel confident that they’re safe, cared for, and having a great time while you’re away.

Hello, I’m Kinslee. I was going to Winona State University for early childhood education, but I am now taking a break to save some money to go back to school. I am currently working part-time at a daycare in Winona. I have a huge passion for working with kids. I am the oldest of 5, so I have been babysitting for a while, but I have a little more than 4 years of childcare experience. I have been a camp counselor, a youth volleyball, soccer, and kickball coach (ages 4-8), and a daycare teacher assistant. I am CPR and First aid certified. My favorite part about working with kids is seeing the excitement in their face when they learn new things.

With over 9 years of experience with many different age ranges, caring for children is so fun, and exciting. The longer I care for them, the more I get to understand their blooming personalities, and how unique each child is! I am new at nannying but have babysat two, three, and five children at once over many years. I make sure each child is safe, happy and having a good time. I love teaching them daily life activities, responsibility, playing nicely with each other, different activities, and just simply being a kind person. I'm currently seeking a longer term nanny position and also open to babysitting opportunities.

I’m new to babysitting but not new to looking after and caring for kids. I have worked as a summer camp counselor, working in cabins with up to 20 kids ranging from 4 years old to 14 years old. Additionally I have worked for a non-profit daycare where I helped manage a room of 15 kids aged 3-4, everyday over the summer field trips would happen once a day, varying from trips to the park to visits at an alpaca farm. I have also worked Nike running camps where I helped teach kids aged 12-18 learn how to become better runners and athletes in all areas. Encouraging things like, healthy sleep habits, good nutrition, and enjoying running and exercise. Through all of these different experiences I have gotten to get to know lots of amazing kids and watch them learn and grow. I have also had the opportunity to learn about, care for and meet kids who face unique challenges, such as autism, cerebral palsy, allergies, ADHD, and more. I also have experience helping kids with traumatizing backgrounds feel safe and cared about. I am currently a college student studying computer science and Spanish. I have previously received both first aid and CPR certification although they are not currently up to date. I am fluent in English and advanced in Spanish. I am a collegiate runner and can definitely keep up with energetic children. If you would like references from previous employers, just ask.

I have been a babysitter for about 5 years but I have always grown up around younger kids! I have been CPR certified and I have learned the basic first aid skills. I have babysat for ages ranging from 0-14 and I do have experience with twins. I love babysitting because it is different from any other job since you are building relationships and trying to be a role model for these children. Most of my experience is with younger children but I am open to anything! I am a freshman at St. Mary’s in Winona and will only be in Winona from August-April. Other jobs I have had include bartending, working security, and being a cashier. Feel free to reach out if you are interested and would like to get to know me!
