Rose H., Child Care in Gowen, MI 49326 with 8 years of paid experience

Hello, I’m Rose! I’m 24 years old with 8+ years of experience as a nanny. I have been a caregiver for ages ranging from, infants just a few weeks old, to 16 year olds in high school. I am able to provide additional help with the home, pets and other activities including meal prep, cleaning, pet walking, dishes, transportation to school/sports/etc., laundry, and any other responsibilities that we’d like to discuss. My goal is to provide exceptional care for your family while meeting the physical, social, and emotional needs of your child. Whether that's monitoring and encouraging baby’s developmental milestones or homework help after school. I've found much fulfillment in this work and hope to make new, meaningful connections with the families to come. I'm located in Belding, Michigan. Looking for a part time position (around 20-35 hours per week) in order to leave room in my own schedule for appointments/college courses. Please reach out to further get to know me and I'll answer any questions you have! :)

Clara H., Child Care in Gowen, MI 49326 with 40 years of paid experience

Hello, my name is Clara and I have taken care of children for over 40 years now and love it. I am currently with a very loving family now. They are having their second child and the mom just told me she is quitting her job to stay home with the kids. They want to still keep me but, my hours will be cut. I have been with them 3 years in April and love the little girl like my granddaughter. I have worked in a daycare center where I took care of four infants at a time loved every minute of it. I fed them, read to them, sang to them, played with them, took them outside, and saw to whatever their needs were to be done. I worked with special needs children. I helped teach one sign language so he could speak to us. I worked for them for 3 years. I only left because they divorced and the mom could not afford to pay me anymore. I worked for another couple who had 4 kids 4 dogs plus I helped clean the house. I worked there for 41/2 years. I drove their kids all over for their extracurricular activities. They will give me a great review or reference, so will the people I am with currently. I enjoy taking the kids outside, to the parks, cooking with them, doing crafts with them, playing with them, and just plain having fun. Thank you for your time.

Clara has been working for us for almost 4 years, she is truly like family and treats our daughter like her own grandchild. Clara does daily crafts, helps with housework, takes our daughter outside to play and is willing to help do whatever we need. Our daughter is so excited to play with her and do fun crafts each time she is here. She was a great help with potty training our daughter and has taught her so much over the past 4 years. She is extremely reliable and has never been late. We truly feel so blessed to have found Clara, she has been incredible for this family and we would give her our best recommendation. Please feel free to ask for my contact with any questions.

Aislynn G., Child Care in Gowen, MI 49326 with 1 year of paid experience

My name is Aislynn and I currently live in Kalamazoo, MI. I have an Associates Degree in Arts and Science from Montcalm Community College and I’m working to get my Bachelors in Early Education at Western Michigan University. Since I was little I always wanted to become a teacher. I was lucky enough to have a wonderful experience with one of my teachers and it made me realize that I want to give other children that same experience. I greatly enjoy working with younger kids and have quite a few years of experience. I work currently as a Lifeguard Lead and Recreation Employee at Sandy Pines Recreation Community. I am certified in lifeguarding and First Aid/CPR and used many of these skills while working. I also spent a lot of time working with children and helping set up and participate in many different activities for younger children. We do a lot of different crafts and games every day, always something new. We also have a daycare-like activity called kids club where we read stories, color pictures, play games, and do crafts together with kids from potty training to age 9 as well as pre-teen where we spend a lot of time outdoors playing different yard games. Another area this job required was working with food. I work in a concessions stand called Happy Shack where I make different meals and prep food for the day, occasionally leading and directing other employees and as a result of this I am well versed in food safety. I also have experience cleaning as I was a Residential/Commercial Cleaner and worked in an Assisted Living as a Housekeeper. Despite my work experience I was raised in a very chaotic home with four siblings and tons of pets. I love working with animals and have experience pet sitting as well. I love making crafts and coloring, watching movies, playing games, going outside and doing all kinds of activities. I enjoy singing and dancing and I play guitar as well. Ive been told that I am generally a very sociable person and I very much enjoy the company of others. I love meeting new people and fostering new relationships. I would love to meet you, your family, and your children and provide help in any way that I can. It’s hard finding someone you can trust and rely on to take care of the most precious things in your life. I want to give you peace of mind and create a fun and happy environment for you and the littles you care about.
