Riley A., Child Care in Shorter, AL 36075 with 7 years of paid experience

Hi! I am the second oldest of five siblings, so have grown up around kids. I have been babysitting since I was 13, and have watched kids from 2 months old to 15. I spent the summers in high school working at a day camp with kids from 1st grade to 6th grade. My summers in college were spent nannying kids ranging from age 2 to 13. I recently finished my masters and now am working full time but I would love to watch your kids on the weekends or for date nights during the week!

Whitney G., Child Care in Shorter, AL 36075 with 5 years of paid experience

Hello, my name is Whitney. I have experience leading and working with children of all ages, from newborns to 16 years of age. I have worked as a professional nanny, lead and assistant preschool teacher, and have a 14-month-old toddler of my own. I also worked with children with autism, ADHD, and other disabilities. My son was born with a disability, so autism advocacy is something I am very passionate about. I have also been a vacation nanny before. I have experience as a lesson planner, arts and crafts counselor, and much more. I currently have a North Carolina childcare background check as well as taking EDU 119, which allows me to qualify as a preschool teacher. I enjoy hanging with my family, creating new and fun activities, and crafting in my free time. I am currently pursuing a bachelor's degree in applied behavioral science with a minor in autism studies; once I get done, I will be obtaining a master's degree in forensic psychology .

Aleigha P., Child Care in Shorter, AL 36075 with 4 years of paid experience

Hi, I'm Aleigha, and I've had the pleasure of babysitting for over 4 years before focusing more on my education & getting busy with my full-time work. My babysitting experiences came from watching after previous neighbor kids, my nieces, cousins, and family friends' kids. l've always had a love for children, and I think the feeling is mutual! Whether it's playtime, helping with homework, or simply just hanging out, I enjoy creating a fun & safe space where children can grow and be themselves. I was once a caretaker for an elderly family- friend which made me equipped for senior care, by running errands, keeping the home tidy & etc. - I Prefer to work with No Pets.

Hey there! I’m someone who genuinely loves caring for babies and toddlers there’s just something so pure and joyful about that early stage of life. I’ve been around little ones for years, whether helping family or close friends, and I’ve always been the go-to when someone needed a reliable, loving sitter. I’m patient, attentive, and I naturally have that calming, nurturing vibe that makes kids feel safe and happy. While I don’t work with older kids often, I put my heart into what I do and treat every child like family. I’m also great with routines, bottles, nap schedules, and playtime activities that support early development. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust, and that’s exactly the kind of care I give.

Why do you love being a sitter? I love being a sitter because I enjoy being around kids. They’re fun, unpredictable, and I like knowing I can make them feel safe and cared for. I also like building that trust with both the kids and the parents. What experience do you have? I've babysat for family and family friends, and I’ve worked in my church nursery every Sunday for years or about five hours each time. I’ve taken care of babies as young as a few weeks old up to kids around six years old. I helped with everything from feeding and diaper changes to calming them down or playing with them when they’re fussy or bored. What skills and training do you have? I’m CPR certified and confident handling younger kids, even when things get hectic. I’m patient, responsible, and know how to stay calm when a kid is crying or something unexpected happens. I also try to make sure kids feel seen and listened to, not just watched.
