Hi! My name is Merritt :) I am a recent graduate from Butler University with a BS in Biochemistry and a minor in Healthcare Administration. I am currently taking a gap year while applying to medical schools with goals to pursue a career as a physician scientist specializing in pediatric oncology. I am passionate about providing children with safe, joyful, and nurturing care. I have spent the last 7 years working with children of all ages--from newborns to teenagers-- and multiples (up to four children at any one time, including nanny share) as well as children with both medical and developmental special needs. My background working and volunteering in healthcare and childcare allows me to approach every situation with a level-head, confidence, and compassion. I am EMT-B trained as well as certified in CPR/First-Aid and "Stop the Silence" CSA prevention. I am happy to assist with meal prep, light cleaning, laundry, errands, and pet care. I love the outdoors, animals, crafts, puzzles, and creating hands-on activities that spark curiosity and creativity in kids. I am always looking for a long-term opportunity with a family who values warmth, structure, and strong communication; I am open to overnight positions (with negotiable rates). Please reach out with any questions--I'd love to learn more about your family's needs!

I am 34 years old. I have cumulatively about 10 years of nannying/babysitting experience. In highschool at the age of 16, I babysat and took care of my baby and toddler cousin on a part-time basis. In college, I was an after-school nanny caring for a 6-year old and driving/taking her to activities. I had a full-time position caring for a 10-month and homeschooling a 4-year old. I have worked with special needs children. I have managed a household. I have worked with several twin toddler families on an as-needed basis. I have done overnight care for an infant. I have watched as many as 5 children at once. I have professional teaching and tutoring experience. I play tennis and violin. I promote enriching activities for children. I'm sort of a germaphobe so I am very good about being clean and keeping things clean! I am a non-smoker. I do have a college degree. I will care for your children as if they were my own.

Hi! My name is Lexie and I’ve been in childcare since I was able! I started babysitting when I was 10 to my nieces and nephews before babysitting locally through my teen years to multiple families, all of whom I watched until I left my hometown. Once I turned 18 and left for college, I had a few families I watched part time through care.com. When I took a break from school in 2019, I became a nanny to a family with then 5, now 6 children. I currently work at a childcare facility (I have had a state background check, been fingerprinted, and completed both infant/child/adult CPR and first aid, as well as safe sleep courses) assisting ages 6 weeks-5 years and am a nanny to an almost one year old. I am also a personal care attendant a few evenings throughout the week. I have experience with children with behavioral needs as well as medical, I am well versed on anything your child may need! I am comfortable with any age, any amount, and any pets! I like to think of myself as a chaos coordinator of fun fanatics! Every day is an opportunity to learn a lesson or make a memory, and some days we’ll find a way to do both. I look forward to chatting more! I can send references upon request. Thank you for your time.

I have sat for a neighborhood couple who had a 5 month old son and a 1 yr old daughter, which were both left in my care on a continuous basis for about a year. I have 2 nieces, which I have sat for on a semi-continuous basis since they were newborns and they are now 13 and 14. I have also sat for a single mother whose 1 year old daughter I have cared for since she was a newborn. I have nannied for a couple who had a 2 year old boy and a 4 month old babygirl. I was a nanny for a family who had twins (boy,girl) and a 5 year old daughter. I was with this family for 2 years, but due to the father's job, they relocated to another state. I have an endless amount of experience with newborns/infants (even preemie). Anywhere from newborns/infants to toddler age is my preference but I do have experience with older kids. Majority of experience is with the younger age group!

Hello! My name is Logan. I am in my final year at Florida Atlantic University. I am a sitter/nanny who has worked with a variety of families long and short term. I don’t have any specialties because I’m fit to work with all! My greatest attribute is my duality. I can meet the parents expectations while still allowing the kids to feel like they got the “fun” babysitter. I have years of experience with special needs children (autism- all over the spectrum and down syndrome). I know basic sign language to communicate with non-verbal children, and I also have experience accommodating to health issues such as seizures and Osteogenesis Imperfecta. I enjoy myself most when I feel like I’m being an asset to a child’s growth and development. I thoroughly enjoy every job, even with the challenges. I am looking forward to take care of your family! (P.S. I have a copy of my background check that I’d be happy to email to you)
