Hi! I live in the Saginaw township area and am looking for some families nearby that need an babysitter. I enjoy working with young children and genuinely love spending time with them. I worked for a family friend for about a year by babysitting their kids, and I also helped out at a family members at-home daycare. I loved both jobs and all the kids I got to know, and before getting them I had taken a class for CPR certification. (expired now) I was also apart of the Careers in Education class during a semester of senior year HS at a career complex. In the class, I got lots of education about early childhood development and preparation for hands-on childcare. Over-all I'm somewhat new to this but hoping to learn help out any families I can :) please ask any questions!

I recently just graduated High School and I am doing online classes at U of M Flint while living at home. I have loved being around kids as long as I can remember. This summer I am watching my 7 year old cousin everyday. I have been babysitting since I was around 13 years old and I have experience with all ages. At the moment I am not CPR certified but I plan to be ASAP. I do gage training in first aid!

I have been babysitting since I was 15, I have a double associates in the arts and applied arts in child development. I've done it all from date nights to third shift care. Most recently have done a week worths at a time for working or going out on vacations and having to run the household and the children’s routines such, extra curricular’s, school. Traveling long distances are no problem for me as I'm always punctual and on time to wherever I'm going. I am kind and passionate about working with kiddos. I love being able to do the occasional tye dye, crafts and arts, bubbles, chalk, finding a pool and park to play and have picnics. When your children are in my care they are loved really truly loved, and are safe I wouldn’t take them anywhere without permission ahead of time to do any type of field trips.

Hi! My name is Morgan, I have been working with kids since I could safely watch them on my own! I have a short experience working in childcare centers (I prefer in home care to be able to be more attentive to the children in my care) and have references I can provide for being a personal babysitter for different families. I have completed both CPR/First Aid training courses, and safety is my number one priority when watching someone’s little ones! I’m someone who truly enjoys spending time with kids and creating a fun, engaging and safe environment where they can be themselves. Whether it’s building forts, reading stories, or navigating toddler meltdowns, I bring a lot of patience, warmth, and good energy to each day. I have experience with mostly infants or toddlers/preschool ages, but have pretty much done it all. I will always try to adapt to each child’s needs, to the best of my ability. Some kids need someone to play with, while others need a calming presence—and I’m happy to be both. I’m also reliable, on time, and easy to communicate with, and love to provide updates- making sure you always know what’s going on! If you’re looking for someone kind, trustworthy, and attentive, I’d love to meet your family and see if we’re a good fit!
