Find experienced child care providers in Alexander, AR

Hi, my name is Taylor, I'm 19 years old and currently studying psychology at the University of Central Arkansas with the goal of becoming a child therapist. I've always enjoyed working with kids and creating fun, safe, and nurturing environments for them to grow and learn. While I may be young, I am responsible, caring, and fully committed to earning your trust as someone who will take great care of your children. I take my responsibilities seriously and understand how important it is to create a safe and engaging environment for kids. I'm dependable, punctual, and great at following directions to ensure your family's routine is respected. My coursework and career focus on child development give me an understanding of how kids think, feel, and thrive, which helps me connect with them and handle situations with patience and care. I grew up in a close-knit family and understand the importance of trust and communication in childcare. My goal is to provide peace of mind for parents while creating a fun and caring environment for your kids.

1. I’ve been drawn to caregiving since I was a teenager, from nannying during my summers to being a role model for my four nieces and nephews. Now that I’m 28 and pursuing a career as a Doula, I love being a sitter because it allows me to use my maturity and experience to create a stable, nurturing environment for kids while being a trusted partner for parents. There's something incredibly rewarding about earning a child's trust, and being a reliable 'extra set of hands' for parents. 2. I have over half a decade of combined caregiving and professional experience. I spent two summers nannying for a family with children aged 5 and 8, and I provided childcare for university faculty throughout my college years. More recently, I’ve been a support for my sister and her four children. My professional background also includes several years in high-stakes hospitality, which sharpened my ability to stay calm, organized, and professional in any situation. 3. I am a Doula Intern specializing in infant care and family support, and I hold a current Red Cross Baby/Child CPR and First Aid certification. Because of my experience assisting with a large family (4 children), I am very comfortable managing multiple needs at once, from meal prep to bedtime routines. My strongest skills are my reliability, my ability to handle emergencies calmly, and my commitment to maintaining a positive, smoke-free, and structured household.

I have a bachelors degree in Criminal Justice with a minor in Sociology. I've been a nanny, for a 3-year-old boy who was visually impaired, and for sisters, a newborn and 15 months. Off and on I nannied for a family with three rambunctious 3 year olds. I've also nannied a 10-year-old for a summer, along with many other babysitting jobs here and there over the years. I spent time co-leading the youth group at my church for a year. I also have other professional experience working in a children's psychiatric facility, ages ranging from 4-17. I've also been the Assistant Site Director at an after school program for children, ranging from Kindergarten-8th grade. Most recently though, I was a caretaker for a girl with Cerebral Palsy, and a Household Manager for a separate family. I just want to show your kids some fun and love when you aren't able to be there to do it yourself. :)

I am a professional career nanny with hands-on experience caring for children from 3 weeks to 12 years old. I have also worked in ABA settings with children on the autism spectrum ages 3–9, which has given me a strong foundation in supporting children with special needs as well as neurotypical children. I believe in meeting each child where they are developmentally and emotionally, creating a nurturing environment where they feel secure, valued, and encouraged to grow. My childcare philosophy blends patience, structure, and creativity. I prioritize independence and curiosity while maintaining safety and consistency. Whether I’m helping an infant with sleep and feeding schedules, guiding a toddler through transitions, or supporting a school-aged child’s social and emotional skills, I approach every stage with respect and intentionality. Certifications & Skills • CPR/First Aid Certified • Safe Sleep Certified • Basic Car Seat Safety Certified • Registered Behavioral Technician (RBT) • Water Safety Certified • Montessori Certification • Early Childhood Development Certified • CDC Childhood Milestones Certification • Skilled in sleep training (with or without CIO), starting solids, baby-led weaning, early childhood education, and baby sign language • Experienced with nutrition, gentle parenting, and Montessori/Waldorf practices What I Love to Do with Children I enjoy teaching life skills through play and natural consequences, like cooking, cleaning up together, and helping with daily tasks. I love outdoor adventures, park outings, story time at the library, music and movement, crafts, and dramatic play. I focus on activities that spark curiosity, creativity, and emotional growth. I also prefer the flexibility to take children on outings, as these provide opportunities to practice public behavior, explore their community, and strengthen real-world life skills. Thank you for considering me. I look forward to the chance to support your children with care, patience, and enthusiasm!

I have had a lot of babysitting experience. I have worked for daycares like Toodle Toys in Benton while I was in high school. I also have 2 nieces and one nephew that I have helped watch some. When I lived in Arkadelphia for college, I worked at a after school/ summer daycare. I currently work as a special needs caregiver, but he is going to a group home for autism the first or second work in April, so I am trying to find work until I am out of college. I will officially be done with college in May where I will graduate with a social work degree.

I have been caregiving since I became a teenager, with a younger sister and then a baby sister in my late teens, I have always been caring of small children since I can remember. Not only that but because of my way with children, I have been constantly sought out in my community to take care and babysit little ones when needed.
