I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy caring for others, especially children. It’s incredibly rewarding to play a role in a child’s development, whether that’s helping them learn new things, encouraging their creativity, or just making them feel safe and loved. Every day is different, and I love the energy, curiosity, and honesty that children bring. I also enjoy building strong, trusting relationships with both kids and their families.

Hi! I’m Alexia, an 18-year-old who absolutely loves working with kids. I’ve always been the go-to sitter for family and friends because I genuinely enjoy helping kids learn, have fun, and feel safe while their parents are away. I have experience caring for children of different ages, from toddlers to school-age kids. I’m comfortable with everything from playtime and crafts to meals, homework, and bedtime routines. During highschool I had an opportunity to be in a program helping with GEN ed and Special ed children giving me experience outside of homes and in our community in schools and other buildings. I always do my best to make sure the kids I watch feel happy, supported, and cared for. I’m responsible, patient, and very dependable — families know they can count on me to show up on time and handle any situation calmly. I’m great at keeping things organized and clean. I’d love to bring my positive energy and care to your family and make sure your kids are in good hands!

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. đź©·

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.

I am a wife and mother of three adult children. I was a certified elementary teacher (k-9) for over 15 years before I moved here, and I love to work with children. I was a full time nanny to two young children (3 yrs old and 3-15 months) in St. Joseph, Michigan (2021-23), another infant 3-20 months in Valparaiso (2023-24), and two children (4 & 2 years old) in Valpo (23-Now) I'm currently available on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I can help with just about anything including the feeding, cleaning, laundry, making baby food, or homework. Just let me know what it is that you need. I am very comfortable with children of all ages. As a working parent, I understand how hard it is to get it all done and how important it is to find a reliable, trusted individual to care for your most precious commodity - your children. I am hands-on, engaging, and fun. I love to get kids out and about and involved in activities that involve physical movement whenever possible. I am also extremely reliable.
