Find experienced child care providers in Ada, MI

Hello, I’m Rose! I’m 24 years old with 8+ years of experience as a nanny. I have been a caregiver for ages ranging from, infants just a few weeks old, to 16 year olds in high school. I am able to provide additional help with the home, pets and other activities including meal prep, cleaning, pet walking, dishes, transportation to school/sports/etc., laundry, and any other responsibilities that we’d like to discuss. My goal is to provide exceptional care for your family while meeting the physical, social, and emotional needs of your child. Whether that's monitoring and encouraging baby’s developmental milestones or homework help after school. I've found much fulfillment in this work and hope to make new, meaningful connections with the families to come. I'm located in Belding, Michigan. Looking for a part time position (around 20-35 hours per week) in order to leave room in my own schedule for appointments/college courses. Please reach out to further get to know me and I'll answer any questions you have! :)

Hi, my name is Rebekah :) I am a kind and creative person looking to help out families through babysitting! I love caring for others. Some of my favorite elements of babysitting include making arts and crafts, teaching ASL, playing games, and going outside to get some sunshine and fresh air. I value healthy eating and encourage the children I babysit to as well!

Hello! My name is Riley & I just recently relocated to the east side of MI from Grand Rapids for my first Speech & Language Pathologist job. I just recently graduated with my Master’s degree from MSU. I also have a Bachelor of Science from Central Michigan University, & a minor in child development. CMU, I study Communication Sciences and Disorders with a minor in Child Development. A little bit about my experience: I have been nannying/babysitting since I was 14-I am now 24. I have experience with infants (2 months) to age 12, and love all of them! I am certified in CPR and First Aid, have my own car/clean driving record, am able to provide references and a background check upon request, and can cook/clean also upon request. I am also fully vaccinated against COVID-19. I have experience working with twins, multiple infants at a time (volunteered in my church nursery), as well as special needs children (ASD and downs syndrome to be exact). I love kids because they are so upbeat and positive, it is hard not to be happy around them! If you have pets, that's even more of a plus! I looove dogs and have grown up with dogs my entire life. I also am not a smoker! I recently traveled to Reggio Emilia, Italy as part of my Child Development minor and got to learn a lot about the Reggio Emilia/Montessori educational approaches and have since brought that back to the states and implemented it into the care that I give to those I nanny :) I look forward to hearing back from you!

Hi, my name is Lavender and I’m 34 years old. I have been a career nanny since 2014 with experience dating back to 2007. I am from a small town in Michigan and have been living in Grand Rapids since 2016 when a live-in position brought me to the area. I have previously worked as a live-in nanny here in Michigan, as well as Hawaii California, Florida + North Carolina. I have extensive experience with newborns in particular, but primarily work with ages 0-2. I am CPR certified and know basic first aid skills (I am willing to become re-certified in first aid if need be). I began working with children at age 13 when I assisted in a family friend's daycare for two full summers. After that, I nannied for triplets during the summer at age 15. I babysat on and off until college, when I got my first full-time nanny job for infant twins. In between nanny jobs, I went back to the corporate world. I was hoping to get in some experience so that when I graduated, I'd have adequate experience to get a good job, but my favorite was always nannying. After graduating college, I worked two career jobs in accounting and finance, but after a year of working in the corporate world again, I decided that nannying was what I really enjoyed. I wasn't happy in my finance jobs and nannying makes me very happy. I adore working with children. I am a very outgoing, charismatic and caring person. I believe if you are happy doing your job, you will be even better at it and nothing makes me happier than working with children. I am currently working for a family full time and will be looking for my next position in August 2025. Feel free to message!

Hi there! My name is Rose. I have several years of experience caring for children, from being a live-in nanny for my three nephews (ages newborn to 8) to working as a camp counselor. I’ve also worked in healthcare, including in a Pediatric Emergency Room, and I currently serve as a research assistant in Pediatric Oncology. I’m applying to medical school this year and truly enjoy spending time with kids—whether that’s helping with homework, playing outside, or winding down with a bedtime routine. I’m available for occasional babysitting on evenings and weekends and would love to be a reliable extra set of hands for your family.

I'm a 34 year old lady who is a first time newlywed. I love children and I'm hoping to be blessed with children of my own soon. But until then I would love to get my kiddo fix and give you the break you need. Playtime, creativity, adventure and creating a positive engagement for both children and parents is something I strive for. I'm a very involved sitter and it's important for me to engage interaction, conversation, play and reading. Anything to help them with feeling comfortable and well looked after. I am CPR certificated, have my own transportation and don't mind keeping tidy around the house and I do not smoke.

Hi! My name is Danielle. I’m 29 years old and live in Grand Rapids Mi. Childcare started off as a way to make some money in high school but ended up discovering that I love working with kids. After I graduated high school, I got a job at a daycare in Missouri and became the lead teacher of their school age class. Working there taught me a lot about caring for kids with special needs, kids who had been abused, in foster care, going through the adoption system, how to care for kids who had been born addicted to drugs, and so much more. After working there for about a year and a half, I began working at a larger preschool where again I was the lead teacher to their school age class. Unlike the the daycare I had previously worked at, this preschool was much larger and my class went from 18 kids to 48 kids but I absolutely loved it and it taught me a LOT about multitasking! After almost a year into me teaching there, I got married and moved to Texas where my husband and I were stationed. While in Texas I worked at one daycare and one private Montessori preschool which was amazing! While in Texas, i found another military family in need of a nanny for 2 beautiful girls and worked for them until unforeseen circumstances occurred and I ended up getting a divorce and moved back to Michigan where I am originally from. Since being back in Michigan I’ve been helping take care of my 94 year old grandma. But now she’s a back to being healthy and able to be independent again so I’m looking for an amazing family who needs a loving/fun/responsible nanny! I hope this gave you an insight to my background. I of course have a resume, references, certificates for over 80 hours in childcare trainings, and can answer any questions you may have. Have a blessed day

Hi! My name is Katherine, and I bring over 10 years of experience working with children of all ages, including 6 years as a preschool teacher. I’m passionate about creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where kids can learn, grow, and just be themselves. My background in early childhood education has taught me the importance of routines, creative play, and clear communication—not just with kids, but with parents too. Whether it’s helping with homework, reading bedtime stories, or engaging in arts and crafts, I always strive to make every moment meaningful. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, patient, dependable, and genuinely love what I do. Your child’s safety, happiness, and development are always my top priorities. I’d love the opportunity to be a trusted and supportive part of your family’s care team!
