Find local child care providers in Violet, LA

Hi my name is Melissa. For the past eight months I've been working as a direct support specialist and a camp counselor at Ramapo for Children in Rhinebeck, NY. But I have decided that I needed a change of pace and direction. Due to my new position as a direct support specialist, I feel as though I haven't had enough time to connect with the kids I work with anymore and the demand of the job and lack of quality has become a burden to me..

I am originally from Maryland and graduated from UMD, I moved to New Orleans post graduation to be a service corps volunteer for a year-long program. I loved the city so much I decided to stick around after my program ended, and continued working at the nonprofit I had been a service member at! I have been babysitting regularly since I was 13, and have been babysitting through Sittercity now for over 5+ years. Through Sittercity, I’ve babysat all types of families and children, ranging from newborns all the way up to middle schoolers. While living in Maryland, I nannied two families (both with elementary school aged children), spent 4 summers volunteering at my temple's pre-school with 2-5 year old children, and worked as a lifeguard for 2 summers where I was responsible for watching over many children. Since being in New Orleans, I have babysat mostly through Sittercity, for families all across the city and even for families coming from out of town who needed a sitter for the weekend. I really love working with kids and getting to see their imaginations explore! Currently, I am working during the week but am free most late afternoons, nights and weekends. I am also usually available last minute, and have a car so I can drive to wherever you are. I also have a dog at home and am comfortable with all animals. I am always happy to provide references, meet beforehand, or be interviewed through phone or in person. Message me if you think I would be a good fit for your family!

My background in caring for infants, toddlers, and youth started when I went on my first mission trip to a children's home in Reynosa, Mexico. Since then I have been working for the past decade to increase my knowledge and skills in child development and pediatric mental health. I'm looking forward to finding the next family that i'll be working with. It's important that we both feel we're the right match for one another, so i appreciate you taking the time to read through my bio. I hope we connect soon.

I have experince working with children from newborn to teenage.Also I teach students in summer camp.

Looking for a compassionate and dedicated nanny/babysitter with extensive experience and impeccable credentials? Well, here I am! I’m highly skilled in caring for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers. I’m experienced in bathing, feeding (including bottle feeding), dressing, changing diapers (including cloth), naps, homework, meal prep, general house work, transportation, etc. I was a nanny from 2003 – 2014. I took a break, went back to school, got a degree in Marketing, worked my way up to a Marketing Manager position, and realized it just wasn’t for me. I decided to quit my stressful/toxic job and steer my career back onto the caregiving path. For the past few years I worked as a full time nanny for two young angels and a part time doula. I have doula experience in both birth and postpartum. Helping families is where my passion truly lies. Children are such wonderful creatures! Each has a different energy and personality. Recognizing the diversity in each child and understanding how to reach them are talents I naturally possess. Assisting in positive guidance and development is such a rewarding job and it would be my pleasure to bring this to you and your family.

Hello! I am a childcare professional with a background in early education, and I am looking for full or part time work. I have worked as a full time nanny with two families, in both cases starting when their sons were 4 months old and continuing until they were 2. I have also had ongoing after school positions with older children, 9 - 13 years old, some with special needs. I have worked with all age groups, and have extensive history with children with special needs. My references are excellent. I was an associate teacher at a Manhattan preschool for 3 years, working with 2 year old, 3 year old and pre-K classes. The school was based on the Reggio Emelia model, and I love coming up with age appropriate activities based on children't interests. I am a graduate of Sarah Lawrence College, where I worked at the Early Childhood Center (the on campus preschool). I studied various philosophies of child care and education, and am very flexible. I am happy to work with children on homework or work as a tutor. I am especially experienced with reading development and comprehension. I grew up with 3 dogs and a cat, and have no allergies. I love pets! I also have a valid driver's license and a good driving record. I hope I may be a good match for your family's needs!

I am a professional 32 year old and very a outgoing and friendly person. I have plenty of experience watching kids of all ages. I am the youngest of 13 grandkids, so I was always around my older cousins kids and babysitting them. I also have an 8, 3, and 1 year old niece as well as a 2 month old nephew. I am around them as much as I can and help raise them. I have babysat for quite a few families on this site, all of whom were long term jobs. I am also certified in CPR. I have my own transportation and am very reliable. Hope I am what you are looking for and would love to be an extended part of your family!

I am a certified babysitter, Cpr certified and a Youth mental health first aider. I have been babysitting since I was 12 years old. I love working with kids and helping families in need of a babysitter. I’m always one call away! I look forward to providing excellent care and providing for your family needs.

Hi! I’m a graduate student at Tulane University and this is my third year living in New Orleans. I have experience with babies 18 mo and up! I’m also able to help with homework after school.

Hey there! My name is Carmen, and I am a child care professional! Children aren't just my expertise. They are my greatest joy. I've been a nanny for several families for over a decade. In that time I have cared for children of all ages. I simply adore the work I do. The bonds I have made with my previous families have enriched my life in ways I can't even describe. I hope to continue this trend for as long as I can! I am certified, and up to date in both child and infant CPR/First Aide. I have a very reliable vehicle. I have completed my third dose of the pfizer vaccine, and I am currently up to date with my Tdap immunization as well. But to make sure we are a good fit, I would like to paint a picture of what having me as a nanny would be like. I'd believe my main responsibility is to ensure that your child knows they are loved. By emulating the parenting styles you have already set into motion, I'd take a supportive parenting role in your home. While I'd always be happy to share my experience and expertise with you, it is YOUR vision of how you see your child being cared for that I'd strive to follow. With your standards in mind, I'd help guide your child through each of their milestones while offering the best care possible. Always from a place of love and eagerness, and never obligation or resentment. A big reason I think I have found so much success in this career is simply that I still love most of the stuff grownups are supposed to get bored of. I love drawing, and crafts. I love playing pretend and makebelieve. Making up songs and dances, watching cartoons, taking things apart, putting them back together again. I love exploring new places and going for treasure (or bug) hunts! I'm obsessed with scientific factoids and am a strong believer that the statement of "I don't know" should always be followed up with "But lets find out!" Children in my care are always encouraged to ask questions. They are always encouraged to express their honest feelings. And they are always encouraged to enjoy their childhood. Because it is so precious and so fleeting. I hope you think we're a good fit! If so, do not hesitate to message me! I would love to speak with you on your expectations in what you're looking for in a child care provider. And Thank you in advance for your consideration!
