Find experienced child care providers in Alto, MI

Hi! My name is April and I’m 20 years old. My main hobbies/interests include photography and spending time outside. Over the years I’ve been able to travel to many different countries and enjoy plenty of new experiences, which is something I really value. I don’t have any experience with paid childcare, however I do have experience with childcare. I spent a lot of time taking care of children in the neighborhood I grew up in and looking after the younger siblings of my friends! I always have a great time working with kids, I find that my creativity always comes in handy when I’m with kids. I hope to help out to the best of my abilities!

My name is Layne Gadberry. I am 31 yrs old and have lived in Michigan for almost 6 years. I live with my sweet 2 year old dog, Luna. My hobbies are reading, yoga, adventures with my pup, spending time with my sister, playing soccer, going to the beach, community based activities and art! I have loved children since I was literally a child myself. I found out in the last few years that my grandmother is the same way! Children are an essential part of my joy and bring so much positive energy to my life. I have been babysitting since I was around 10 and have worked at day camps, a children's museum, crisis nursery (my heart job), as a nanny, a pool and a residential home for girls.  I have been a career nanny for five years. I have a reliable car and a clean background etc. I have much infant experience as well as multiples, including twins I have been CPR, first aid and car seat safety trained, as well as training in trauma informed care.

I have a bachelors in Early Childhood Education and I have over fifteen years of experience as a caregiver. I have cared for twin infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and elementary age children.

Hello! I am an Early Childhood Special Education Teacher. I am available for after-school care (4:30-9) and any time on the weekends. I chose a career working with children because I love their active imaginations and kind hearts. I enjoy spending time talking with children, making crafts, creating science projects, playing outdoors, exploring nature, reading and learning! Please feel free to contact me if you believe I would make a good caregiver for your child/children!

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!

I have years of experience in caring for children of all ages and have excellent references.I am flexible schedule wise and can help out with food prep, animal care, errands and light housekeeping.

Hi my name is Kayla and I’ve been babysitting for many years. I have a heart of Gold and love everything about building a bond with families and watching the growth of kids. I am an Aquinas Alumni 2023 & I currently work in the NICU at Helen DeVos Children’s hospital as a nurse tech. I have always dreamed of being a nurse, so I decided to do more school to become a NICU nurse, but currently on a waitlist. I am very active each and everyday! I am responsible, trustworthy, patient, and will treat and take care of your kids as if they were my own:) I’m big into sports, traveling, shopping, & working out & I enjoy staying busy. It would be a pleasure to meet you and your family 💗

Greetings my name is Hazel, I'm a South African living in the USA, I came to America awhile ago as an au pair and have been au pairing for many beautiful families as I travel from state to state, I'm currently in Kentwood Michigan and hoping to match with another amazing family that I can assist in making their lives easier. My love for kids is through the roof, I was raised in a big family where I made it my duty to be present for all the kids I was surrounded by, so I've been doing this for as long as I can imagine. I am a great listener and a big believer of treating children as humans having a human experience, with real life emotions that matter. I would love to connect with a family that understands this. I am also very informative so definitely look forward to getting pictures and updates of our daily activities as I feel this allows a parent the comfort knowing they are not missing out on their child's life. Communication is key and I make it a priority to have crucial conversations with children and parents that way we are all on the same page. Happy connecting with you. Hazel

Hello! My name is Kira, and I have been working with children full-time for the past two years. My passion for childcare began at a young age when I welcomed my baby brother into my life at 12, and I have continued working with children ever since through babysitting and childcare roles. I have nearly two years of experience working in a daycare setting, including one year in the infant room, and I have cared for children ranging from 2 months to 6 years old. I am very comfortable around animals, as I grew up on a farm, and I enjoy spending time outdoors whenever possible. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your wonderful family!

I have had a lot of experience in the past with working with kids. I’ve nannied for a summer, volunteered in nursery for 6 years, and babysat for 5. I have worked with many different kids, all ranging in age and development. I have taken child development classes at school and helped in special education classes. I am not cpr or first aid certified, but have grown up around nurses and worked with kids long enough to be able to know and understand what is going on and how to care for them in certain situations.
