Find experienced child care providers in Dryden, MI

Hi I’m Sara! I have a deep passion when it comes to working with kids. I am a Montessori preschool teacher and have been nannying for over a decade. I think each kid has something special, goofy, fun and curious about them which is why I love getting to know and care for each and every one. I value compassion, structure, and creativity and I believe that is reflected in the way I interact with children.

Hi, I'm Hanna! I'm looking for a new family to care for after I move to Chicago within the next 2 weeks. I've been nannying now for 7 years and have been with my current family for 2 years. Right now, I'm a nanny/house manager for a lovely family who has 3yo twins, a 5yo, and sometimes their cousin is there who's 2. We enjoy going to parks, splash pads, the zoo, pool, indoor play areas, running through the sprinkler in their backyard, walks with their large dog, afterschool activities, arts and crafts, sensory bins, dance parties, read books, build forts, sort things, fine motor skills focused tasks, and pretend we're dinosaurs while playing hide and seek! Some of the house management tasks I do include grocery shopping, meal prep, basic cleaning, family laundry, running errands, organizational projects, getting rid of outgrown kids' clothes/toys/books, rotating toy bins, deep cleaning/getting gas/maintenance done on their car I drive, packing/unpacking for trips, receiving packages/putting things away, loading/unloading the dishwasher, and more. In addition to nannying for various other families, I've also been an Assistant Teacher at a daycare, and absolutely loved it! There, I took care of the infants and sometimes the toddlers. The room ratio was 1 adult:4 infants/toddlers, so I was definitely busy! My duties included feedings, introducing infants to solids, meal/snack time, diaper changes, soothing them for naps, narrating things throughout the day, listening to music, tummy time, finger painting, potty training the toddlers, play time indoors and outdoors, walks, maintaining a clean and uplifting environment, and sticking to a schedule/filling out daily sheets for each child. I'm CPR/First Aid certified, have a bachelor's degree from Michigan State University, am not a smoker, have a reliable car, up-to-date on vaccines, have special needs experience, and recently worked with a physical/speech therapist who came weekly for the twin toddlers. I have experience with ages 3mo-11yo, and all of the jobs I've had have been with multiple children. I'm kind-hearted, reliable, nurturing, trustworthy, loving, responsible, fun, and encouraging. I have such a strong passion for caring for kids, they are truly so special! I applied to an apartment recently in Chicago, so now I just need to secure a job in order to move. I also have a resume/references. I can't wait to continue my nannying journey because so far it's been nothing but amazing and so rewarding! :)

Hi there, I am a momma of two sweet boys, ages 1 and 5 years old and one fur baby! I have my elementary teaching license with 8 year experience in the classroom classroom. With that being said, I am creating a supplimental arts and craft program for local preschool and elementary aged children on the weekends. This will be directed through my preschool childcare program ‘ Mrs. Darnall’s Little Learners’. I am nearing the end of the licensing process for my preschool, so that will be coming soon this fall! In the mean time, I will be doing a flexible summer childcare program with both half and full day options for children aged 2-5. The program has limited spots to ensure that a small-group setting can be provided. Please message me if interested in the arts and crafts program offered on Saturdays starting in JUNE, or my summer program. Best, Michelle

My name is Unyime, I go by Miley to make it easier. I currently work as a teacher’s assistant in a preschool while taking classes to become a Medical Assistant. I am CPR/AED/ FIRST AID CERTIFIED. I have experience with children from 0-13 years old I’m comfortable with pets as long as they are not aggressive. I am 21, I don’t drink or smoke. Military girl Looking forward to meeting and babysitting for you. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

I’m a nursing student at Michigan State University and have worked as a Medical Assistant in a busy healthcare setting, so I’m used to staying calm, organized, and responsible even when things get hectic. I’m CPR and BLS certified, and that training has really helped me feel confident when it comes to safety and responding quickly if something unexpected happens. I’ve babysat for a family with two kids and a dog, where I helped with everyday routines like meals, playtime, and keeping the kids entertained and on track. I’m also comfortable with pets and used to juggling a few things at once while still keeping everything running smoothly. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids—playing, talking, and keeping things fun but structured. I’m dependable, easygoing, and really focused on making sure kids are safe, happy, and well cared for while parents feel completely at ease.

I love being a sitter because my one goal in life is to be a mom. I love kids and cannot wait to have my own. I have babysat neighbors and family for over 6 years and have taken CPR lessons and First Aid. I can cook, clean, and tend the needs of any child. I am one of 7 kids and two of my siblings have autism so I have experience in that field. I plan to help nurture and care for your child and meet the needs they require.

I’ve been an elementary teacher for over 30 years and am also a proud mom of three. I absolutely love being a sitter because it lets me watch children learn, grow, and explore through play. Helping kids discover new things in a fun, caring environment is one of my favorite parts of what I do. In addition to teaching, I work as an after-school tutor and hold a ZA endorsement, which has strengthened my knowledge of early childhood development. I bring patience, dependability, and a genuine love for children to every family I work with. My goal is always to create a safe, engaging space where kids can feel happy, confident, and curious.

Hi I’m Alexa and the reason I babysit is because I honestly really love kids. I understand that parents are busy so while you are out I’m here to make sure you’re number 1 priority is my number 1 priority, aka your child. My experiences with tutoring have taught me every child learns different and is different, so when I look after yours I promise to make sure they are individually getting the time and care they need. As someone who has over 15 certifications in the health field, safety is definitely my first priority. But while you’re away I will make sure your child is entertained and having a good time. I am very good at arts and crafts and coming up with new crafts to do.
