Find experienced child care providers in Alto, MI

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!

I have recently retired from the field of nursing and am happy to return to childcare. I have years of experience in caring for children of all ages from babysitting as a teen, I worked as a nanny for 2 years in high school, I’ve helped raise my goddaughter and cared for children of neighbors and friends through the years. I am flexible schedule wise and can help out with food prep, animal care, errands and light housekeeping.

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!

Hi, I'm Ruth, but everyone calls me Rue! With two years of experience in daycare and currently studying psychology in college, I bring a caring and understanding approach to childcare. In my free time, I love to color, take my dog for walks, and explore new recipes in the kitchen. I'm passionate about caring for children and am completely comfortable with pets and cleaning. If you think I might be a good fit for your family, please don't hesitate to get in touch!

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. If you have any questions or would like to know more about my qualifications please text me at, (616) 644-5434.

Hi! I’m Skilar! I’ve been a part time nanny for over a year and a date night/occasional sitter for five years! I have my own reliable vehicle so transportation is never a problem! I’m comfortable transporting kids if needed or wanted too! I love baking, art, and outdoor activities and I love to do those with the kids I watch! I also love a fun movie night too, making snacks and building forts! I’d love to further build my experience and make connections with new families as an occasional sitter!

Hi there! My name is Jasmine, and I have over 2 years of hands-on nanny experience, as well as years of personal experience caring for my younger sisters. I graduated from Grandville High School, where I completed an EMT course and earned my BLS certification, giving me specialized training in CPR and emergency response. I truly enjoy working with children and love creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where they can learn, grow, and feel cared for. Families can count on me to be dependable, patient, and attentive, always treating their children with the same care and love I would give my own family.

My name is Leah, and I am twenty years old working on publishing three books while waitressing to bring in money. Having my first nephew at the age of eight I’ve grown up looking after kids and began babysitting very young which transferred into nannying later on, working for my church nursery, as well as the daycare at MVP Sportsplex where I became certified in First Aid and CPR. That’s over seven years of experience with children ages 0-12 years. I have a passion for taking care of little ones and giving them the love and care they deserve while their parents are away. My work is built on mutual respect and trust with parents to create a loving atmosphere for their children. Every child deserves to be heard and cared for lovingly, while this remains true I will kindly correct behavior to help each child grow. I would love to look after your children and help your lives be a little bit easier. I have reliable transportation and am comfortable driving kids. I love getting kids out of the house whether that is to a park or library. I will always clean around the house and am more than happy to assist with laundry or other household chores. Cooking and planning engaging and nurturing activities is something I am more than happy to do. Most of all I wish to give your child safe and nurturing care while their parents are away because I know it’s tough on little ones and I want nothing more than to help their time be filled with fun, love, and support!
