Find experienced child care providers in Dryden, MI

Hey families. I am a Nanny with over 13 years of experience caring for children ranging from newborns to teenagers. I have a college education in childcare development and I bring a great amount of knowledge and care to each role. I was a day care teacher in the UK and took care of babies from new born to 5 years old and after school programs where children aged up to 7. Jan 2022- Oct 2023, I was as an au pair for almost 2 years and I currently work with multiple families one being everyday and others being occasionally. I am very good at multitasking many children at one since working in day cares required so. My role includes a lot of responsibilities including school drop offs, driving to activities, laundry, sleep training, dinner preps, bottle cleaning/feeding and more.

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.

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.

I am attending Michigan State University in the fall and looking to help kids learn and grow! Previously a gymnastics coach for kids ages 1-10, and am comfortable with all kids of personalities. I am energetic and enjoy creating fun activities for the kids. I am skilled in cleaning, driving, cooking, and caregiving. Feel free to contact me for more information!

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! :)

Hello! Thank you for your time. I am an artist and full time caregiver for my neurodivergent sons(10ADHD/13ASD). My availability is every other Friday, Saturday evenings, and Sundays. I was a live-in nanny for over 7 years, I've trained as a Direct Care worker for individuals with disabilities, I've worked as a paraprofessional in a public school setting, and most recently worked for multiple families as a house manager. Tasks I was responsible for were childcare, medication management, laundry, organizing, holiday decorating, meal prep/serve, scheduling household maintenance and cleaning, pet care, light housekeeping, and errands. I am trustworthy and reliable, and I have invaluable knowledge and experience caring for a diverse range of children's needs. Clear, open, and honest communication is important! I will happily provide you with references upon request. I hope to find a kind, respectful, non -prejudiced family to work with for the long term. I look forward to talking to you!

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

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.
