Elizabeth F., Child Care in Dowling, MI 49050 with 6 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Liz Suggitt. I am 27 years old and have had many experiences working with children from different age groups. I have provided childcare for four different families in the past and have enjoyed getting to know each of those families during the time that they needed care. I love working with children and have had quite a bit of experience working with multiple young children at the same time. I also have volunteered at my church throughout the years in different children's programs and really enjoy working with children from all different backgrounds. I enjoy caring for children of all ages, playing games both inside and outside, doing crafts, reading, swimming and preparing meals and snacks. One of my past jobs that I had was working as a delivery driver, and through that I have obtained plenty of driving experience while keeping a clean driving record so I feel very comfortable handling pick-ups/drop-offs. I am available for the days that you need me and I also have a flexible schedule if you need childcare on any other days. Thank you for your thoughtful consideration and I'm looking forward to hearing back from you! Liz Suggitt

Creating a safe and loving environment for children is a goal that I have for every family that I step into. Being active and engaging with creative minds is mostly how I connect with children. I am more than comfortable with infants and young children. I have experience as a nanny, in school settings and as an RBT for kiddos 2-8 with autism. Safety is also always a priority when being around young children. I can't wait to hear from you, thanks!

Hi! I’m Megan, and I’ve been caring for children for over 20 years, starting with my own nieces and nephews, including twins and a child with a serious heart condition. Over the years, I have discovered a deep passion for supporting children not just in everyday life, but also through life’s most challenging moments. I specialize in helping children and teens navigate grief, loss, and difficult emotions, creating safe and nurturing spaces where they can feel understood, supported, and empowered. I hold certifications in First Aid, CPR, and Early Childhood Education, and I’ve coached Little League for five years. I also have experience helping children with learning differences, including dyslexia, and I design activities that encourage growth, creativity, and learning in ways that meet each child’s individual needs. I’m creative, patient, and intentional in everything I do. From arts and crafts to unique learning games, I enjoy creating fun and meaningful projects that help children explore, learn, and process their emotions. I’m flexible with children of any age and comfortable supporting kids through any challenge, whether big or small. I’m currently pursuing my Master’s in Social Work (MSW) to deepen my ability to help children and teens process grief and trauma. I’m seeking a full-time nanny position where I can utilize my experience, compassion, and creativity to support your family. I’m fully licensed and insured, with a 4-door Jeep Wrangler ready for safe transportation to school, activities, or adventures. If your child is navigating loss or facing challenges, I provide a safe, caring, and fun environment that helps them grow, heal, and feel truly seen.

Addison B., Child Care in Dowling, MI 49050 with 4 years of paid experience

I am a recent highschool graduate and am graduating Kellogg Community College this spring with my associates in science (by being in the early college program). I plan to keep going to school after and plan on becoming a pediatric doctor. I have four years of child sitting experience, with ages three months to 12 years old. I also have my first aid and CPR certifications. I have experience with scheduled nannying with twin boys and I have a lot of experience with periodic sitting for all ages. I always like to leave a place cleaner than you left it (dishes in the sink, laundry in the wash, etc). I also have experience tutoring and love to help with homework. I love having fun with the kids I watch (hanging out with them not just watching them).
