Valerie R., Child Care in Dexter, MI 48130 with 12 years of paid experience

Hi, my name is Valerie and I am interested in part-time childcare work. I am a mom of 5 Vikings ( as my husband and I call them). My two oldest have moved out, and I have 2 in High School and 1 in Community College. I have been a stay-at-home mom for (most of) 23 yrs. I started following my kids to school, and volunteering in classrooms until the school finally hired me! When I realized that my kids would rather be with their friends I decided it was time to get out of the house. My neighbor agreed and offered me up as a nanny for friends of hers. I obtained my CPR certification and accepted a temporary Nanny position, part-time, for an infant. I so enjoyed my time with a little again! My position ended when circumstances changed and the family moved from the area. Since that first job, I’ve had a family in town for two days for work and hired me to care for their infant for a few days. Then two very lovely families who each only needed me part of the week became my primary jobs and kept my schedule full. Then it happened. A job offer for Husband, in Michigan. Since we are originally from Michigan, we made the very difficult decision to move. Yay Husband. Bummer to leave the families I had been a part of. Pre-Husband and Vikings, I earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Earth Science at Central Michigan University. Being a bit of a wanderer, I found myself in Chicago working at an Ad Agency! My family and I moved to Greensboro about 8yrs ago, and loved having both mountains and Ocean available for our adventures. However, the never ending heat and humidity will not be missed. I enjoy getting outdoors daily, and perhaps it’s the Earth Science background, but I love taking the little ones outside and introducing them to the trees, flowers, birds, whatever we come across. Kids are such natural sponges, they soak it all in. Having the opportunity to smell or touch or hold something greatly improves their understanding of their environment.

Phoebe W., Child Care in Dexter, MI 48130 with 1 year of paid experience

I enjoy working with kid, I’ve been working at a before and after care for an elementary school. I am somewhat new to Child Care although it gives me experiences for the career I want to pursue. I am CPR certified/First Aid, bilingual in Spanish etc. In my senior year of high school I took a class to help a teacher out and see what it looks like behind a teacher's lens. I coached rec gymnastics for ages 3-10 and enjoyed working and see the kids improve. I am really excited to bring my passion out and hopefully build connections with kids. Wanting to gain experience but also supporting your families needs :)!

Phoebe worked with our boys for a few months on the weekends when we needed some extra help. She was always punctual, a great communicator, and very responsible. She was also very good at entertaining our wild boys, often creating fun, active games for them even when they were cooped up inside. I would recommend her highly. :)

Moriah C., Child Care in Dexter, MI 48130 with 12 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Moriah, and I am a dedicated, compassionate babysitter and caregiver with over 12 years of experience working with children from infancy through age 18. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Human Development, and I am First Aid and CPR certified, ensuring your child’s safety and well-being are always my top priorities. I view babysitting as more than supervision — I see it as being extra hands and feet for families, offering protection, care, and encouragement while helping children grow into the best versions of themselves. I bring a calm, nurturing presence, strong communication skills, and an understanding of child development to every family I work with. In addition to childcare, I also have 3 years of professional cleaning experience, allowing me to help maintain an organized, clean, and comfortable environment for your home. I take pride in being reliable, attentive, and supportive, and I look forward to partnering with families to provide safe, loving, and dependable care.

Moriah has been one of our children’s sitters for years! She is an excellent choice to watch your children. She is reliable, kind and energetic. She took the time to really get to know our children so that each time they are together is memorable and fun. She is always quick to respond to messages and keeps us up to date when watching the kids. She is respectful of our guidelines for the kids activities, food choices and discipline. She is our go too and the kids are disappointed when she isn’t available.

Kendyle Z., Child Care in Dexter, MI 48130 with 8 years of paid experience

Hi! I’m Kendyle, a student at the University of Michigan with 8 years of babysitting experience. I started babysitting when I was 11, riding my bike to care for five kids down the street ranging in age from 1 month to 9 years old. Since then, I’ve worked with over 15 families and truly enjoy building connections with kids and watching them grow. I’ve cared for children of all ages and have experience watching up to 8 kids on my own. I’m certified in babysitting and CPR, and I’ve also worked as a lifeguard and swim instructor, which has given me even more experience working with children in a safe and structured setting. In addition to childcare, I’ve also tutored kids and can help with homework when needed. I’m reliable, patient, and always happy to lend a hand. I’d love the opportunity to care for and support your family!

Jessica W., Child Care in Dexter, MI 48130 with 6 years of paid experience

My name is Jessica W. It is very nice to meet you! I live in the Dexter/ Ann Arbor area, but I am flexible. I have been a babysitter for many years, while babysitting I’ve watched children through the ages of 0-12. I love working with children, and watching how each of them learn to express themselves and how they can work towards different goals. I am 22 years old and have graduated from Washtenaw Community College with my associates in Early Childhood Education! I have also recently become a mom of a beautiful baby girl who is 6 months old! I have work with many infants beforehand but have grasped a completely new concept of infant lifestyle! A little bit more about me, I love to be outside enjoying beautiful Mother Nature. I am very into sports as I played many throughout my childhood and high school/college! I enjoy reading and writing, and spending lots of time doing all these with my daughter and family! I would love to hear from you if you think I’m a good fit for your family! Thank you so much for taking the time to learn a little bit about me!
