I am available for babysitting/nanny gigs. I have many years experience with children of all ages, specializing in preschool age. I will read to your child, work on colors, numbers, letters, and sing songs. I do homework, chores, games , etc with older children. I am a plugged in nanny, I don't just casually supervise unless this is specifically requested. I was a preschool teacher for 5 years, a certified EMT with a volunteer ambulance service for 4 years and was CPR certified for numerous years. I am a married mother of an adult daughter and grandma to 2 girls.

I truly love being around kids and have always felt very comfortable caring for them. Watching children grow, learn new things, and develop their own personalities is incredibly rewarding to me. I enjoy building real relationships with the kids I care for and creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment where they feel understood and encouraged. I’ve been babysitting for as long as I can remember. I have experience with children of various ages and have spent a lot of time caring for my own niece and two nephews, whom I absolutely adore. Through years of childcare, I’ve handled everything from daily routines and playtime to school pick-ups, meals, and bedtime. I’m very comfortable stepping into a family’s routine and helping things run smoothly. I have an educational background in Human Development and Family Studies, which has given me a strong understanding of child development. I’m confident in providing developmentally appropriate activities, learning opportunities, and structure that support each child’s growth. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive, and I’m always happy to help with light household tasks, errands, and driving kids to activities. My goal is to feel like part of the family, someone the kids trust and enjoy spending time with, and someone the parents feel comfortable relying on as a true family support.

Hi! I’m Morgan. I’m 22 years old and I’m looking to be a babysitter. I have babysat kids before and have been told I’m very good with kids. My patience runs high so maybe that’s it. I love to play volleyball, sing, read books. My favorite singer is P!nk. I love pets (my favorite animal is a monkey) and I have 2 cats. I have 6 years of paid babysitting experience. I also have CPR certification and know basic first aid. I am willing to do light house keeping and simple meals (I’m not much of a cook). I have my own car so if there are activities, sports, or just a trip to the park, I can do that. My availability is very flexible right now as I am currently looking for a job. I hope to hear from you soon!
