Stacey P., Child Care in Indianapolis, IN 46220 with 26 years of paid experience

Hello! I'm a 43 year old mother of 3 with over 10 years of homeschooling experience and over 20 years of childcare experience. 2 of my 3 children are grown now and my 3rd is homeschooling and in 7th grade. I have taught in co-ops, volunteered for over 10 years in Wayne Township, and been a substitute teacher. I love play and crafts, pets of ALL shapes and sizes, and am looking for ways to earn some extra money now that I have more time. I can help in the early mornings, errands and pets during the day, and I'm very open in the afternoon and evenings. I do prefer to meet before accepting any offers to guarantee a good fit for your family and mine. Please reach out with questions. I look forward to getting to know you!

Amazing with our son for a 12 hour day! Trinity was communicative and met with our family before the date we needed help. We would highly recommend!

I’ve seen firsthand how amazing Grace is with kids, and I couldn’t recommend her more! She is so loving, patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoys being around children. She’s an incredible aunt to my son, and he absolutely loves her. It’s so comforting knowing he is safe, cared for, and having fun when he’s with her. Grace has such a natural way with kids, and I know any family would be lucky to have her care for their little ones! ❤️

Hi all! I am a recent graduate from Marian University with my Master's in Teaching, a full-time teacher, and have been professionally babysitting for 9 years. I love kids and watching them learn new things as they explore this world, and fun play and learning are what your kids will do with me as their babysitter (or kid-sitter as I've been called before haha). I love to laugh, smile, play my flute, sing, and dance, so I will be sure to keep a smile on your kid's face! I won't disappoint when you choose me to take care of your child(ren)! I am CPR/First Aid Certified, receive my flu shot every year, fully COVID vaccinated since April 2021 (and boosted!), and am SafeSitter Verified. Looking forward to speaking with you! I am only available for evening and weekend jobs.

Mykah was amazing! She was super flexible, friendly, and our 4 year old son LOVED her! She responded quickly and followed through on interview and meet and greet requests. We came from out of town, so she was able to take our son out to enjoy some of the local sights during our vacation. We highly recommend Mykah and would keep using her regularly if we were local to Indy!

Hi my name is Diane. I have helped children grow and learn for the past twenty plus years. I have four wonderful children of my own. Through the years I have been a babysitter, a nanny and a preschool teacher. I also helped with light housekeeping, cooking and pet care. I have experience with newborns through school age. I enjoy reading to children, doing art projects, fingerplays and helping children reach milestones for their particular age group. Good communication between parents and myself is important. I will help your children grow and learn by being kind, patient, caring, nurturing, and compassionate.
