Hi! My name is Emily and I am currently working towards going back to college but in the meantime I would love to help anyone in need as I have a lot of time on my hands. I absolutely love to be around kids. I have experience in babysitting ages 3 months to 15 year olds. I can cook, clean, run errands, and also have no allergies to any pets and can care for them as well if needed. I have interned and been employed at Elwood Elementary School working with children K-4th grade!

Emily has been AMAZING! She was prompt with responding to our inquiry and reached out to schedule immediately. She was flexible with our schedule to come meet with us and our kiddo. She seemed to blend with our family almost instantly and actually watched Gabe that night! She's spent 3 afternoons with Gabe, so far, and she's done everything we've asked her to do including homework and getting him to be physically active. She asks great questions and is open to all our suggestions. She is intelligent and kind and has a fun and welcoming personality. We are lucky to have found her!

I have babysat in my teens and throughout my adult life. I also worked for a children's hospital as a patient care technician for 5 years. I am a very caring, loving and conscientious person. I will give your child/children the best care and attention possible. I will play games, help with crafts and keep electronics to a minimum. I am also willing to care for your child/children/pet(s) if you need to be away overnight or weekends and if they are ill and need to stay home from school. Your family will will get the respect you deserve under my care. I prefer to work part time positions, date nights, emergency situations, before & after school care but will consider full time for the right family. I am very reliable, trustworthy and dependable. I have my own transportation. I love children and will treat them well and as if they were my grandchildren, as I don't have any of my own. Children light up the world and are very special. I have cared for many children and jobs have been long term; a few of them have been around 3 - 5 yearseach family. Some have been less. I moved back to Indiana to be near what family I have left. Please contact me for any questions you may have. Thank you for your consideration. I hope to hear from you.

Marybeth has been my sitter first for my oldest daughter then for both my kids once I had my second. We used her weekly during the week for over two years and continue to use her for date nights. Highly recommend. My oldest is in school full time so no longer need care during the week but still use her for date nights etc.

I am an energetic, caring, and dependable 21-year-old with 6 years of babysitting and childcare experience. I previously worked at a preschool, where I supervised classrooms of up to 15 children ages 1–6. In that role, I helped children with potty training, behavioral challenges, daily routines, activities and lesson plans, and regularly communicated with parents about their child’s progress and needs. I also have healthcare experience as a hospitality aide in a nursing home, where I assisted residents with daily care, including meals, bathing, transferring, and other personal needs. This experience taught me the importance of patience, attentiveness, and treating every person with kindness and respect. Outside of my professional experience, I have always enjoyed caring for my younger siblings, so I am very comfortable with the everyday realities of sibling dynamics, keeping children entertained, and helping manage a household while parents are away. I truly enjoy caregiving and love getting to know each child’s personality, interests, and routines. My goal is always to create a safe, positive, and comfortable environment where children feel cared for, supported, and able to have fun!

Hi parents! I’m a warm, energetic 21 year old babysitter who would love to welcome myself into your family’s routine. With a strong professional background in healthcare, including rewarding experience working on hospital postpartum and pediatric units your children's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my absolute top priorities. I am fully CPR and First Aid certified, and I am incredibly comfortable caring for children of all ages, from the sweetest newborn infants to active teenagers. I truly love bringing a sense of fun and positive energy into the house, whether we are playing games, working on homework, or just chatting about their day. At the same time, I bring a high level of responsibility and a helping hand to your household. I love to cook nutritious meals, I'm always happy to keep things tidy with light cleaning, and I have my own reliable car to safely manage school pickups or run family errands. As a proud pet parent of two fur-babies myself, your animals will get just as much love and attention as the rest of the family! My ultimate goal is to give you total peace of mind while you are away, ensuring your kids are thriving and that you always get to walk through the door to a happy, calm, and beautifully clean home.

I have spent the last 5 summers working with kids ranging from age 6 to 17 at summer camp. My first year I worked in the craft department then lead it for the following 3 years. I loved being able to plan fun and useful activities such as making and painting ceramics, simple baking skills, and artistic strategies! This last summer I switched over to being the main registrar and financial person, which was a whole new experience. I definitely missed being with the kids but still greatly enjoyed my job. I started my college career in the elementary education field with the goal to teach in a school one day. While I have switched to psychology 1.5 years into my degree, I still plan to work in school systems and with youth as a school psychologist. My time in the education program helped me understand language development, teaching strategies, ethics when working with youth, and management of young people. From my experience, I am skilled in communication, custodial services, engaging childcare, organization, and planning. I look forward to using these skills while helping you with whatever you need!
