With over 16 years of experience in early childhood education—both as a childcare center owner and an operations manager—my passion for working with children runs deep. While I’ve had the privilege of leading teams, supporting families, and managing full-scale childcare operations, what continues to bring me the most joy is the hands-on connection I get through babysitting. There’s something incredibly special about the one-on-one time babysitting allows. It gives me the opportunity to focus entirely on a child’s individual needs, interests, and development in a calm, personal setting. Every child is unique, and I love being able to adapt to their personality and help them learn, laugh, and feel safe. Babysitting brings me back to the heart of why I got into childcare in the first place: to make a difference in a child’s day—and life. Whether it’s engaging in play-based learning, comforting them when they’re upset, or simply sharing giggles over storytime, those small but powerful moments are what fuel my passion. My background has given me a deep understanding of child development, health and safety, and what it means to truly partner with families. As a babysitter, I bring not just experience, but intention. I’m not just there to supervise—I’m there to support, encourage, and care with purpose. At the end of the day, I love being a babysitter because it’s personal, impactful, and meaningful. And even after all these years, the joy of seeing a child thrive never gets old.

Hi, I’m Emma! I’m a CPR-certified babysitter with extensive experience working with children of all ages and abilities. I currently work as a paraprofessional in a Pre-K classroom for children with special needs, where I’ve also received first aid and behavior management training. In addition to my classroom experience, I’ve worked as a substitute teacher from Pre-K through 12th grade, giving me a strong understanding of how to support kids at different developmental stages. I’m also a college student pursuing a General Studies degree with a focus in Behavioral Sciences, and I plan to earn my teaching certification for grades Pre-K through 3rd. I’m passionate about creating a safe, patient, and engaging environment where children can learn, feel supported, and have fun. I bring reliability, warmth, and strong communication skills to every family I work with, and I would love the opportunity to help care for your child.

I am a recent college graduate with my bachelors in psychology. While in college I found my love for working with kids. The different settings I have worked/interned/volunteered in are schools, community centers, and clinics for children with autism. I've done supervised counseling, tutoring, aba therapy, and worked with at risk teen girls. I like to think I make a difference and they enjoy me around. I served in the Army National Guard for 5years. I have lots of patience with children because I know they are learning and still developing. I'm very goofy, I always say you can't be too serious with jobs like mine. When a child is around me they are safe as can be. I am horrible at lieing. When I started aba I learned how to break unwanted behaviors and staying calm in hectic situations. I have done potty training with multiple children. If you simply need a babysitter every now and then I'm your girl. I can be flexible with availability. I am an active, energetic, fast thinking, silly type of girl. I do not hesitate to get low with the kids on the floor for some playtime. I have plenty of love and care to go around.

Hi, I’m Kaylee Grace! I’m the second oldest of 25 grandkids, so I’ve been around kids of every age my whole life. I started nannying back in high school summers and it quickly became something I loved. I’m a licensed esthetician, trained in sanitary standards and detail-oriented care, but I realized my real passion is with kids. I graduated at the top of my class, so homework is never an issue, and I enjoy finding creative ways to make learning click. I also have ADD/ADHD and a family full of different neurodivergencies like autism, OCD, and dyslexia, so I’ve learned how to adjust to each child’s unique needs. I love showing kids that their differences are actually strengths, and that they don’t have to see them as weaknesses. Outside of that, I helped with my mom’s cleaning business for a couple of years, I love cooking from scratch, and I’m big on hands-on activities like painting or sculpting with clay. And for whatever reason, babies always seem drawn to me—I’ve been the “baby magnet” in my family and friend group for years! I’d love the chance to bring that same care, patience, and energy to your family.

Heyy I’m 18 Why do you love being a sitter? I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and helping them learn and grow. Every child has their own personality and energy, and I love being part of their day — whether that’s helping with homework, playing games, or just making sure they feel safe and happy. Babysitting also gives me a chance to build trust with families and make a positive impact in their lives. ⸻ What experience do you have? I’ve been babysitting for about 4 years, caring for children of different ages — from toddlers to preteens. I’ve worked with several families in my community, handling after-school care, meal prep, bedtime routines, and even helping with homework. Through these experiences, I’ve learned how to stay patient, organized, and dependable no matter the situation. ⸻ What skills and training do you have? I’m responsible, organized, and great at multitasking — which comes in handy both as a sitter and as an accounting major. I’m also CPR and First Aid certified, so I know how to respond in emergencies. My experience has taught me strong communication and problem-solving skills, and I always make safety and respect my top priorities when caring for kids.
