Find local child care providers in Lowell, MI

I love being a sitter because I truly enjoy working with children and helping them grow, learn, and feel safe. Every child is unique, and I find it fulfilling to build trust and form a bond with each one. I also like being a positive influence and providing support to busy families who need someone reliable and caring to step in. I have experience working with children of various ages, from infants to pre-teens. I've babysat for families in my community, both during the day, and I've also helped with meal prep, homework, and bedtime routines. In addition to babysitting, I've volunteered at my church nursery for 7+years and worked at a childcare center, which gave me even more hands-on experience with managing groups of kids and creating fun, safe activities. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and I’ve completed basic child safety training. I’m also skilled at managing routines, resolving minor conflicts calmly, and keeping kids engaged through games, crafts, and storytelling. I’m responsible, patient, and know how to stay calm in unexpected situations. Good communication is another strength — both with children and with parents to make sure everyone’s on the same page.

Hi, my name is Melissa. I have three years of experience working with infant and toddlers. I’ve had experience working in a daycare setting. I am available monday-Friday and I can also be available on the weekends as needed

My name is Leah, and I am twenty years old working on publishing three books while waitressing to bring in money. Having my first nephew at the age of eight I’ve grown up looking after kids and began babysitting very young which transferred into nannying later on, working for my church nursery, as well as the daycare at MVP Sportsplex where I became certified in First Aid and CPR. That’s over seven years of experience with children ages 0-12 years. I have a passion for taking care of little ones and giving them the love and care they deserve while their parents are away. My work is built on mutual respect and trust with parents to create a loving atmosphere for their children. Every child deserves to be heard and cared for lovingly, while this remains true I will kindly correct behavior to help each child grow. I would love to look after your children and help your lives be a little bit easier. I have reliable transportation and am comfortable driving kids. I love getting kids out of the house whether that is to a park or library. I will always clean around the house and am more than happy to assist with laundry or other household chores. Cooking and planning engaging and nurturing activities is something I am more than happy to do. Most of all I wish to give your child safe and nurturing care while their parents are away because I know it’s tough on little ones and I want nothing more than to help their time be filled with fun, love, and support!

Hi! My name is Shelby, and I bring over 10 years of hands-on experience working with children of all ages. I hold a degree in Early Childhood Education, and caring for kids has always been second nature to me. My background includes everything from infant care to helping with homework and planning fun, developmentally appropriate activities. Children tend to gravitate toward me, and I genuinely enjoy creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment where they can thrive. Whether you’re looking for a dependable babysitter for date nights, weekends, or consistent care, I’d love to be a trusted part of your child’s routine.

With a B.S. in Child and Family Psychology from Northwestern University and a Master’s in Parent Coaching from Seattle University, I’ve spent my career helping families thrive—both in the home and professionally through my own parent coaching business. I’ve cared for children of all ages and abilities for over 30 years and volunteered in hospital emergency departments, always drawn to where the need (and the chaos) is greatest. I’m CPR certified, extremely experienced with infants, and happiest outside—whether it’s a walk to the park, visiting playgrounds, or a backyard bug hunt. I believe in calm confidence, creative play, and the power of a good snack.

Hello! My name is Riley & I just recently relocated to the east side of MI from Grand Rapids for my first Speech & Language Pathologist job. I just recently graduated with my Master’s degree from MSU. I also have a Bachelor of Science from Central Michigan University, & a minor in child development. CMU, I study Communication Sciences and Disorders with a minor in Child Development. A little bit about my experience: I have been nannying/babysitting since I was 14-I am now 24. I have experience with infants (2 months) to age 12, and love all of them! I am certified in CPR and First Aid, have my own car/clean driving record, am able to provide references and a background check upon request, and can cook/clean also upon request. I am also fully vaccinated against COVID-19. I have experience working with twins, multiple infants at a time (volunteered in my church nursery), as well as special needs children (ASD and downs syndrome to be exact). I love kids because they are so upbeat and positive, it is hard not to be happy around them! If you have pets, that's even more of a plus! I looove dogs and have grown up with dogs my entire life. I also am not a smoker! I recently traveled to Reggio Emilia, Italy as part of my Child Development minor and got to learn a lot about the Reggio Emilia/Montessori educational approaches and have since brought that back to the states and implemented it into the care that I give to those I nanny :) I look forward to hearing back from you!
