Find experienced babysitters in Watertown, WI

Please call me Becky. I'm a sitter that is available on call. Can you believe it? Strictly on call. I literally will not schedule anything more than 2 hours in advance. I mean, have you ever heard of a sitter that you can text within 2 hours of when you'd like them to arrive? You're free to run errands, have lunch with a friend, schedule that interview, show that house, meet a client, take that extra shift. Wow! Now that's convenient. Don't be a slave to a schedule. Flexibility makes life run smoothly. I will come to your home and play indoors with your child. We will play with their toys, games, puzzles, blow bubbles, color and crafts, pretend, talk, read, listen to music, put on talent shows, etc. After I get to know your child, we can possibly bake & make other messy crafts. It depends on the child. - Excuse me a moment while I talk to the type A parents out there. Schedule a sitter and if they have to cancel or don't show, contact me. You'll want to have your bases covered, right? - Please take that first step and either send me a message, leave me a voice mail, send a text or send me an email. We should talk through the details. I'll want to be sure you're within my small service radius. The second step will be texting me 2 hrs (or less) before you'd like to get together and meet. An in-person meeting is required before I can watch the kids. Doing the meeting at the last minute shows that we have an understanding of the last minute arrangement that would be used when contacting me for care. Then we'd be all set for last minute care. Any time you needed my help, you would text me no more than 2 hours (but less is always an option) before you wanted me to arrive. Sound good? I'd love to hear from you during the week. Thank you for reading through my profile. By using my help for your random needs and as a backup for your scheduled needs, you are allowing parents that work on call to have consistent care for their children instead of tossing them from one 'between jobs' sitter and another. Thank you for allowing me to offer this service. *Please note that I am listed in the directory of Jefferson County respite providers if you qualify for this service.*

I have babysat for many families before for weekends and date nights. During my senior year of high school I had an internship in a classroom. I have worked 2 years for the before and after school program. I have also worked as the lead toddler teacher. I am CPR/First Aid/AED trained. I have taken child abuse prevention classes and I have a few of credits for early childhood education.

Although I never was a registered babysitter, I have babysat and taken care of three or four children at a time within my family. I was a nanny for my sister Leah and her three children when I was 14 for a whole summer in between academic school years, for example. I did work at a daycare - Little Dumplings Early Learning Center- for the summer and I absolutely enjoyed every second. I worked with ages 6 months-3 years primarily and I love that age because I see so much personality development and growth at those ages. It is an extremely rewarding job knowing I help not only the kids with every day activities, but that I also help the parents. I know life can get very hectic and not working isn’t an option. I think that taking care of children is a great gift to people like me who want to work with children when they get older. It is great practice as I always learn many new things, and again as I said before, it is incredibly rewarding watching and helping little children grow into toddlerhood then preschool age and so on. I am CPR and choking certified.

As a current educator, I am seeking summer employment to stay busy and continue doing what I love! I have 3 years worth of teaching experience with high school aged students, 2 years of summer school experience with elementary aged students, and 2 summers worth of experience working at a daycare with a range of children from infant to elementary. I have also coached volleyball and basketball the past three years, which means I have been CPR and First Aid Certified and have experience working with active kids! I love helping establish and keep a routine that keeps children busy, active, and engaged. I am able to adapt quickly to any schedule that would best fit your child's needs! I am skilled in helping with school work, activity planning, meal preparing, emotion regulating, housekeeping, and do own my own vehicle for transportation. I would be happy to help you with your childcare needs and look forward to meeting your family!

Hi my name is Mackenzie! Starting in August, I'll have additional availability and am looking for part-time nannying, babysitting, or pet-sitting opportunities. I currently work full-time as a physical therapy aide and will be transitioning to part-time in August. I have over 8 years of experience working with children, primarily through babysitting. However, during my time at UW–La Crosse, I also worked as a caregiver in a nursery, caring for infants and toddlers. I would love to help with after-school care, transportation to activities, homework assistance, playtime, or occasional date nights. In addition to evenings, I also have availability for daytime or morning care on select weekdays depending on the schedule needed. Feel free to message me if you're interested or know someone who may be looking for childcare support. I look forward to connecting with you!

Hi! My name is Katie, and I’m a sophomore at Carroll University studying Elementary and Special Education. I’ve always had a passion for working with children and helping them learn and grow. As a middle child with a younger brother, caring for kids has been a part of my life from an early age. Since seventh grade, I’ve volunteered every summer at Vacation Bible School (VBS), leading games, crafts, songs, and Bible lessons for children. Since my freshman year of high school, I’ve also volunteered with Awana, where I’ve enjoyed building relationships with kids in a fun and encouraging environment. I’ve participated in three mission trips to Memphis, where I helped lead Backyard Bible Clubs for children ages 3–12. I worked alongside a team to teach Bible lessons, organize games and crafts, lead songs, and create a safe, welcoming environment for every child. In addition, I’ve babysat for family friends and have experience caring for children in a home setting. I truly love working with kids and strive to make every child feel safe, supported, and valued. I’m patient, dependable, and enjoy keeping children engaged through creative activities, outdoor play, reading, and learning. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and provide dependable, caring childcare!

I graduated from UW-La Crosse with a Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education, Early-Middle Childhood Education. I am thrilled to bring my passion to your family. With three years of experience teaching Kindergarten, I create inclusive safe places for students and teach students how to read, solve-problems and gain confidence. Also, I have taught a summer school class for many years titled “Moving onto Kindergarten.” Children thrive through play, hands-on experiences, and positive role models. As a nanny from 2020-2023, I had the privilege of working with an extraordinary family, watching their children grow from 3 months and 3 years old, to now 6 and 9 years old. They are like family to me, and we spend holidays together. I complete chores, help with school work, and plan activities. Finally, my student teaching experience in 4th, 5th, 4K, and 1st grade. I am particularly skilled in social-emotional learning and behavioral management. I am looking forward to meeting with your family!
