Grace I., Child Care in Alto, MI 49302 with 8 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Grace Ingabire, and I'm a Michigan State University alumna with many years of childcare experience. Throughout college, I worked in several licensed childcare centers and also babysat for many wonderful families. Caring for children has always been something I genuinely love, and I'm passionate about creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where kids can learn, play, and thrive. I come from a big family with 11 siblings, so caring for children has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I have experience caring for infants through school-aged children, including twins, and I'm comfortable managing multiple children at once. Whether it's tummy time with a baby, reading books, helping with homework, planning fun activities, or spending time outdoors, I enjoy supporting each child's unique personality and development. Families describe me as dependable, patient, energetic, and compassionate. I take pride in building trusting relationships with both children and parents and always strive to create a positive, reliable experience for every family I work with. In addition to childcare, I'm happy to assist with meal preparation, light housekeeping related to the children, school pick-up and drop-off, organizing play areas, and helping keep daily routines running smoothly. My goal is to make life a little easier for parents while ensuring their children feel safe, happy, and cared for. I am CPR and First Aid certified and have completed several years of professional childcare training while working in licensed childcare facilities. I have a clean background with no criminal record and an excellent record with every family I've worked with. I am currently looking for a consistent nanny position, but I am also available for occasional babysitting. If you're looking for someone who is caring, experienced, dependable, and genuinely enjoys working with children, I'd love the opportunity to meet your family. I look forward to hearing from you!

Julia R., Child Care in Alto, MI 49302 with 7 years of paid experience

Hello, my name is Julia Roberts and I’m 24 years old and I have nannied and babysat for many years. A little about me, I am a very adventurous and out going person with an empathetic and kind heart. I love children and watching them learn and grow into amazing people. I am very patient and respectful and would care for a child as if it were my own. I have two wonderful and loving parents and an older brother who I absolutely adore. My family would describe me as empathetic and happy and my friends would describe me as loyal and genuine. Im auntie to 3 little boys and two girls and I absolutely adore and miss them as I have moved away and now I’m in the Traverse City area. EXPERIENCE: I have nannied for 7 years with many different families with all ages of children from an infant to 15 years old. I would take care of the little ones all day, I would do breakfast, lunch and sometimes dinner with them, I’d do bath times, put them down for naps as well as engage and play with them or go on walks or to the park. I would also occasionally do household chores for the kiddos if needed like laundry and cleaning bottles and picking up their toys. I have volunteered in elementary class rooms and would help the children learn. I have also worked with special needs kids who couldn’t communicate in any type of way or who had anger problems. I’m very good with kids and love taking care of them. SKILLS: CPR and BLS certified: I have taken a CPR course in 2022 at a community college near me, and we practiced on how to do it with adults and infants. I have taken a child care class in college as well. We learned the basics, such as what to do if the child is sick or got hurt from doing something. We learned how to care for them on a daily basis or if it was something more serious such as if they were choking. I have life guard training, so I am a very good swimmer and I would be able to save a child if they got themselves into a situation where that was needed. I am fully Covid vaccinated. I have ALL my vaccinations up to date since I had taken a phlebotomy course through the hospital. I look forward to hearing from you on how I can help your little family grow!
