My name is Sarah! I have always been passionate about teaching and working with children. I currently work at a daycare/preschool and have been there for over a year now. I work with the infants specifically, but I also have a lot of experience with children ages 1-4. I enjoy my career path so much that I spend my time outside of work babysitting! I'm a junior at Indiana University South Bend, majoring in elementary and early childhood education. Because of this, I've spent time observing various elementary school classrooms nearby and I can also help with homework. I'm warm-hearted, responsible, and patient with children of all ages. I love to interact with kids by playing games, coloring, watching movies, doing crafts, or whatever else they enjoy doing! I can prepare meals and help with clean-up. I've also been trained in CPR, first aid, safe sleep practices, and universal precautions.

I love being a baby sitter because I enjoy spending time with children and being part of their growth. I like creating a safe, caring, and fun environment where kids feel comfortable and happy. I also value the trust parents place in me and I take my responsibility seriously. Being a babysitter allows me to be patient, creative, and dependable. I worked with children for my family and friends for 5 years now. I have experience with different age groups, tutoring, being safe to make sure the children aren’t in anyway harmed, problem solving not knowing what will come up, communication with the parents and children, and time management when it comes to daily routines.

Hello! My name is Caylee. I have worked in the Indiana Public School system for several years. I've worked with children from newborns up until 12th grade. Im trained in teaching early reading skills such as phonics and sight words. I have raised two of my own children and love to snuggle and sing to babies. Children love me for my sunny disposition. I love to make crafts, bake, sing, dance, and spend time outside enjoying nature. I can assist with homework, household tasks, and meal prep. I love taking care of children because it brings my heart joy. I have worked with nonverbal children, neurodivergent children, and of course neurotypical children. My youngest child is mostly nonverbal at 2 years old, but I have taught him the alphabet and counting through the beauty of song. I am confident that I can make a lasting positive impact on your children, as I have done so for others in the past. I require that I bring my two year old son with me, but don't let that deter you. I have taken care of entire kindergarten classes of 30 children by myself with ease and gusto! Please consider me as a possible candidate to help enrich your children's life through play, learning, and laughs. 🩷

Hi! I’m currently a full-time college student at Valparaiso University. During school my schedule is pretty full, but if I’m notified in advance about a needed sitter I can work around some things. :) I’m mainly free during winter breaks, spring breaks, weekends, etc. I’ve never had a “real” babysitting job, however I have a little brother who I’ve babysat since he was a newborn, and I’ve also babysat a lot of my little cousins. This included changing diapers, making bottles, cooking food, and being a fun babysitter! I am fluent in English and Spanish, and I’m currently studying Biology to become a future dentist. I hold a clean background check as well as a clean driving record. I am not CPR/First-Aid certified, but I’m willing to take a class and get certified if you prefer. I look forward to hearing from you!

As a Registered Behavior Therapist with over five years of dedicated experience supporting children on the autism spectrum and additional years in childcare beginning when I was 17 years old, I have developed a deep passion for nurturing young minds and helping them thrive in safe, supportive environments. I find immense joy in building meaningful connections with children, celebrating their unique strengths, and providing the patience, creativity, and structure they need to grow confidently. My clean criminal background reflects my commitment to trustworthiness and safety, and while my CPR and first aid certifications have lapsed, I am eager to renew them promptly at a family’s request to ensure complete peace of mind. Becoming a caregiver for your child(ren) would allow me to bring my expertise, enthusiasm, and genuine care to your family, fostering a positive and enriching experience for everyone involved. *I cannot provide ABA services but I am knowledgeable in different communication methods, toileting schedules, and visual schedules that your child’s may need support with.
