Elyse C.
- 4 years paid experience

Hello! My name is Elyse, and I am 31 years old. A little bit of my history: I worked in a childcare setting for a year and a half, and was a nanny for twins from 6mo’s to 3.5 years old. I have always had a heart and passion for children. I particularly enjoy arts & crafts, music, going outdoors, and engaging them in a variety of activities that meet their educational and physical needs. I am CPR certified, a non-smoker as well as have a clean driving record. I am also a dog owner so I would definitely not mind being around your dog if you have one! I'd be happy to provide references as well as meet or chat on the phone. Looking forward to hearing from you and I wish you the best of luck with your search!

Hi, I’m Drew! I’m going to be junior at Grand Valley State University this fall and looking for a babysitting job before my afternoon classes. I’ve worked with kids ages 4–13 through years of coaching and helping at youth camps during high school and have had many parents come up and say great things. I’ve also babysat for younger cousins and family friends. I’m responsible, dependable, and always make sure kids are safe, engaged, and having fun. Even though most of my experience isn’t “paid” babysitting, I treat every job seriously and always show up on time and prepared.

I have been working for daycare facilities since I was 16 years old. I had to take time away from child care due to having my own family. I have 5 children of my own, ages from 16 down to 6. They are all in school full time now, and I would like to get back into working with children again. I'm looking for a schedule that allows me to work the hours that my children are in school. My reason is that one of my children is autistic and type 1 diabetic, so I have to be at home when he is to make sure he gets his insulin. I don't have a recent certificate for cpr and first aid, but I have taken several classes over the years that I know how and what to do.

I’m calm, creative, and love encouraging kids to explore, play, and express themselves. I’m also happy to help with light housework, meals, and anything that helps your home run smoothly.

- 1 year paid experience

I’m a very active and creative babysitter/nanny. I love exploring outside, playing games and making crafts with the kids. Though I only have about a year of paid experience, and mainly with one family, I have a genuine passion for caring for kids. I have experience primarily with toddler and preschool age kiddos, but looking to gain more experience with younger ones. I love building connections with kids, have experience preparing meals, providing engaging activities, changing diapers, and willing to help out with housekeeping and laundry. I’m first aid/CPR certified as well as a certified safe sleep ambassador. I’m excited to combine my creativity and love for kids into a full time nanny role, making sure your little ones have fun and learn while staying safe.

Hiya! My name is maribeth. A bit about me is I have 9+ years of experience from watching my nephews as I grew up and have babysat for friends or family for a long time. I really wanna get back to helping out and caring for kids. I currently am a passionate young massage therapist, but I miss being around kids and caring for them. I I love interacting with kids, animals, and being in nature. Im outgoing, goofy, creative, fun, and have been told I have a caring mother nature since even since I was little. Because of being the youngest in my big family I learned to listen well and have a love for helping others out! Have my own car. I also love cleaning for some reason lol. So I am willing to helpout with caring for the kids, pets, cooking, cleaning up, and extra tasks if needed.
