Hello Parents. I am Adella. I have about 7 years professional experience in child care from infants to teenagers. I have experience since I was about 12 years old in child care and all throughout my life. I have a Bachelor's degree in Business. I have experience preparing meals for children with dietary restrictions, I also have helped with housekeeping, homework, child drop off and pick up from school, and family meal prep when time permits. I love to work with children, and approach each child as an individual who I get to help grow and teach. I focus on providing a safe, routine-focused, and creative space for them to learn and grow. I like to stimulate learning with reading books and imagination play. I love to bake and cook, do crafts, play outside, encourage independent time and play, as well as outings when permitted. I do not smoke, am pet friendly and have my own reliable transportation, am first aid and CPR certified. I can also provide references.

I am a mother of one boy, Carson! He is a senior this year, and my world! I enjoy fishing, reading, and volunteering in church ministry is my passion! I love helping others! For 15 years, I dedicated myself to fostering children's growth and providing families with dependable care for children ages 0-12+. My coursework for my Child Development Associate gave me a solid foundation. I am patient, creative, and loving. I am comfortable caring for up to three children and enforcing household rules. I follow parents' preferred communication methods to keep you informed. I am also happy to help with light housekeeping. I have taken CPR and First Aid over 14 times, but they are expired right now as of a year. In the last three years I have held a position as a professionally cleaner for residential and commercial clients. Beyond cleaning, it was a very personable position, creating bonds with clients as well as pets!

I’m a caring, dependable, and energetic nanny with several years of hands-on experience working with children of all ages. I’ve spent the last three summers nannying for a wonderful family, and I’ve also supported families with younger children during the school year. I love building strong connections with the kids I care for, encouraging creativity, supporting emotional development, and helping them feel safe, seen, and loved. I have a background in marketing and recently completed an internship with a bridal company, but I continue to nanny because I genuinely enjoy working with children and supporting families in meaningful ways. I’m organized, responsible, and great at keeping routines running smoothly, whether that’s handling school pickups, playdates, light meal prep, or helping with homework. I get married in a month and we are settling down in Fort Wayne. I hope to find a full time job where I can feel a part of the family!

Over the last 30 years I have cared for younger siblings, other family's children and my own seven children. My favorite thing about babysitting/caring for children is the ability to lovingly teach and train a child by showing them what is right and wrong and why. Playing, cooking, doing arts/crafts, singing, reading and tickling are all great ways to spend time with a child; which I do regularly. Children are a blessing/gift from GOD and need constant love, guidance, structure, security and creativity. Please let me help you with your child care needs today!

Hi! My name is Makala, and I have 1 year of paid babysitting experience. I recently graduated from Bishop Luers High School just looking for a summer job. I’m certified in First Aid and take safety seriously while creating a fun, nurturing environment for kids. I follow the parents lead when it comes to house rules and can communicate effectively if problem arises. I’m reliable, responsible, and happy to help with errands or travel with children when needed. I’d love the opportunity to support your family!
