Allen R., Child Care in Decatur, AL 35601 with 20 years of paid experience

I have been babysitting since I was a young teenager. One of my first babysitting experiences was assisting a mother with her two premature twin daughters while her husband was on a Guard Duty. I have since babysat for several families from the time their oldest child was an infant until they had 3-4 children in the family, in addition to many other families for more short-term care. Additionally, I have worked in church childcare, substitute teaching, and as a teacher for students in grades K-12. I have been working as a teacher locally since October 2011. While I enjoy teaching and find seeing students learn very fulfilling, I am looking at transitioning to a nanny position (or a combination of nanny positions) for better work-life balance since I now have children at home. I am regular trained in parenting strategies as well as CPR and water safety courses through my role as a foster parent. I am also open to occasional babysitting.

Allen was fabulous! My 2 cats loved her from the moment she walked in the door. She was prompt and texted after every visit with our cats. We returned to a clean liter box and 2 well fed cats. The next time we are out of town, Allen will be the first person I will call to cat-sit for us!

Hello! I am easy-going and have experience with all ages! I work at Mill Creek Elementary for after-school care and I am strict when it comes to the safety and health of your kids. I’ll help with homework, drive to soccer practice, play the same game for hours, or play a hundred games with made up rules! And even better: we’ll clean up as we go.

Christalyn, thank you so much for helping us on such short notice. You went above and beyond to help us and we appreciate everything you did. You're honest, responsible and you made our trip worry free. The kids were screaming and ecstatic that you were their sitter and we couldn't be more happier that we found you. Thanks again and God bless.

I have 17 years of childcare experience in a childcare setting with children of all ages from 6 weeks to 12 years old. I love outdoor activities, reading books, crafts, and just having fun being silly. I have been a preschool teacher and have 5 years of nanny experience and love teaching children new things. I love each child like they were my own and I am my happiest when I'm around children! I have an adorable 9 year old daughter and have First Aid and CPR training.

**Looking for Occasional Babysitting** I'm a passionate, caring, upbeat individual who would be the perfect nanny for your family. I have experience working with children from new born to 12 years. I would love to engage your children in a wide variety of creative activities. I love to do science experiments, read intriguing books, and get outside with the children in my care. The most important characteristic in a family that I'm working for is communicating their needs with me. Once I know what you and the children need I will do my absolute to achieve that in way that is enjoyable for everyone. I would love to help your children have fun through learning about their environment and their interests this year! P. S. I have volunteered for over 100 hours in a nursery at the hospital. This includes bathing, feeding, and soothing newborns. I have also volunteered in my church's nursery working with infants and toddlers as well as older children.
