Adanna D., Child Care in Elk Rapids, MI 49629 with 0 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Adanna DeArment, I'm a student at Michigan State University, currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders and a Minor in Cognitive Science. I'll be coming home to Rapid City, MI this summer and currently searching for a job to work from early May to mid-August. To be perfectly up-front, I have limited experience in childcare beyond occasional babysitting jobs and being a camp counselor for a week at Camp BEE (a summer camp for children who have Childhood Apraxia of Speech), however, I've taken many developmental classes at MSU that will help me support kids' ever developing minds. I am also more than willing to become CPR and First Aid certified to make sure they are in safe hands, I'm also comfortable with background checks for your peace of mind! I absolutely adore dogs and being in the kitchen so I'm more than willing to help out with any meal prepping or pet care, as well as cleaning up around the house! I am a big believer in child-led play as it fosters their development while they pursue their curiosity/interests in a safe environment so I'll be more than happy to participate and support in any activities they want to do! Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and considering me for your needs!

Daniela R., Child Care in Elk Rapids, MI 49629 with 4 years of paid experience

Hi there, I'm a passionate childhood educator with years of experience in childcare. I earned my degree in childhood pedagogy in 2021, and I'm currently working as an AuPair, caring for a toddler since June 2024. My philosophy is simple: happy and safe children are the most important thing. I'm a very affectionate and responsible person, and I love helping children understand their emotions while having fun. My background as both a teacher and a caregiver has prepared me to handle a variety of situations with calm and creativity. Additionally, I hold a first-aid certification for your peace of mind. If you're looking for someone to care for your children with love and professionalism, I'd be delighted to chat with you!

Isabella C., Child Care in Elk Rapids, MI 49629 with 3 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Isabela and I truly love caring for children. Being a sitter brings me joy because I enjoy creating safe, fun, and meaningful moments for kids while supporting families in their daily routines. I’m patient, responsible, and very warm, and I always do my best to make children feel understood, happy, and secure. I have experience working as an au pair in the United States, caring for infants and toddlers, including feeding, diapering, nap routines, playtime, and developmental activities. I also have experience with older children, preparing meals, and creating engaging activities that encourage learning and creativity. My skills include infant and toddler care, safety awareness, strong communication with parents, meal prep, creating structured routines, and offering bilingual care in English and Spanish. I am CPR/First Aid aware, a confident driver, and someone families can rely on. I would love to support your family and provide the best care for your little ones.
