Maria M., Child Care in New Castle, IN 47362 with 10 years of paid experience

Hi! I'm a 25 year old reliable & experienced babysitter with a long history of working with children & families. I'm CPR/first aid certified, & I've been babysitting since I was a teenager. I have provided care for multiple families & have cared for all ages from infants & toddlers to older kids & teens. I would consider myself dependable, flexible, & respectful! More about me/skills/training/etc: My primary job I work for when not babysitting is a disability services company where I've spent the last few years at, so I have experience with care of children & adults with varying physical & mental disabilities or needs. I have an older sister who is a social worker & foster parent, so I am authorized to & still help care for many of the children who come through her home over the years. I have taken classes or completed courses in child development, psychology, crisis intervention, trauma informed care, etc. throughout my life. I also hold a Bachelor's degree in both Theatre & French from Ball State University. With these things being said, I would say I have a range of knowledge or understanding when it comes to adapting my care to fit what each child & family needs as well as bringing communication skills, creativity, & prior experience. I have a car & a valid driver's license, so I'm able to assist with transportation, errands, school pick-ups, or getting kids to & from activities if desired, so long as there are carseats for children if needed. I can help with homework & have experience in helping tutor others, depending on the subject of course. I don't mind pets in the home so long as they are not aggressive! I love animals! I myself have three cats! If you're looking for someone experienced to trust, provide care of your child or children, support your routines, & is easy to communicate with, I'd love to connect :)

Hi! My name is Lydia, and I’m a college junior studying Elementary Education. I love working with kids, especially ages 5–9, and I’m excited to bring my patience, creativity, and enthusiasm into a babysitting role. While I’m new to formal babysitting, my coursework and hands-on experiences in education have given me a lot of practice interacting with children, understanding their needs, and helping them learn and grow. I’m naturally calm and observant, and I tend to be quiet at first, but once I’m comfortable, I’m very warm, friendly, and easy for kids to connect with. I enjoy creating a positive, safe, and fun environment where children feel happy and confident. I also love coming up with activities that are both educational and entertaining — from crafts and games to reading and imaginative play. I’ll be CPR certified by the time I start babysitting, and I take safety very seriously. I’m reliable, punctual, and committed to making sure parents feel confident leaving their children in my care. I understand how important it is for families to trust their babysitter, and I work hard to build that trust through clear communication, attentiveness, and genuine care. Outside of school and babysitting, some of my favorite hobbies are working out, going on walks, and reading. I find that staying active and enjoying quiet moments with a good book helps me stay balanced and energized — which I bring with me when caring for kids. I’m excited to meet new families, create meaningful connections, and provide a calm, supportive, and enjoyable experience for children. If you’re looking for a responsible, caring, and patient babysitter who is enthusiastic about helping children learn, play, and grow, I’d love the opportunity to meet your family and be part of your child’s day!
