Find experienced child care providers in Ortonville, MI

Hello! I'm Emma Holmquist, an experienced and reliable nanny dedicated to creating a nurturing environment for your children. Having recently worked in both nanny positions and at a child care center, I've had the experience of caring for children across all age groups- from infants as young as 6 weeks old to middle schoolers! In my roles as a nanny, I provided care tailored to the unique needs of each family, including cooking a healthy meal, teaching new skills, tidying the house, and providing transportation. At the child care center, I followed a structured routine that included feeding, teaching, outdoor and indoor play, nap time, and engaging activities until pick-up. In addition to my experience as a nanny and child care assistant, I've also worked at a rehabilitation center providing services to those with special needs. I am committed to your child's safety and education, which is evident with my CPR certification and Bachelor's degree in Psychology (completing numerous courses specific to child development).

Hi! I’m Melina, I’m 23 years old and I’ve lived in Michigan my whole life. I started babysitting when I was 16 and have been doing it ever since. I love kids! I’ve also helped take care of my younger siblings since they were born. (They’re 9&12 now) I have experience in all ages. Including multiple kids at once. I like to do just a little bit of everything, if needed. For example, I tidy up, do laundry, dishes, bath time, cook and I’ll do bedtime. Just about anything really. I’m here to help and work around your schedule! Thank you :)

Hi I’m Sara! I have a deep passion when it comes to working with kids. I am a Montessori preschool teacher and have been nannying for over a decade. I think each kid has something special, goofy, fun and curious about them which is why I love getting to know and care for each and every one. I value compassion, structure, and creativity and I believe that is reflected in the way I interact with children.

Hello! I’m Jennifer! I’m currently going to college at OU, I’m getting my undergrad in psychology. I’ve been a gymnastics coach for the last 2 years, I love working with kids and seeing them grow as little people

Hi, my name is Meredith! I love helping out local families in my community by being a sitter, I find joy in being able to work with kids. Empathy and understanding are by far my biggest values. I do have some experience working as an art camp counselor at cub scout day camps. Currently I'm also in school to be a certified nursing assistant and eventually go on to pediatric nursing or being a child life specialist. Because I am in school for a medical related job, I have become certified in quite a few important areas such as CPR, AED, and overall BLS training. I also do of course have first aid training at a more advanced level as well. In my free time I love to cook, hangout with cats, and do makeup in theater at my high school. I am a very creative person and love to express myself through watercolor painting, fun crafts, and theater related activities. I did also want to mention I have an American Red Cross babysitting certification. I can't wait to start helping families! Contact me if you're interested.

I am a passionate 18 year old high school senior who has spent the last two years learning about children as it is my dream to be a teacher. I have experience in a young fives classroom along with babysitting on and off since I was 13 and I have two younger sisters (3) and (4) who I have been very involved in raising. I am currently a repetitive babysitter for a family of three girls (5), (2) and (2) I started babysitting for them in may of this year and have loved every minute I recently started getting the 5 year old off the bus and it has become my favorite part of our weekly routine. I am also first aid and cpr certified thanks to my teacher cadet program I took last year!

Hi! I’m Stacie — I grew up in Clarkston and I’m currently a junior at Michigan State studying psychology and cognitive science. I come back home throughout the year, so I’m available for sitting during school breaks. I’ll be in the area December 12–January 10, and then again from early May through mid-August. I’ve worked with kids for several years, including two years in a daycare and long-term sitting for multiple families. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, have experience with children from 6 months to 13 years old, and I’ve also supported neurodivergent kids. I love planning activities, helping with meals and bedtime, and keeping things running smoothly around the house. I’m mainly looking for occasional sitting, but I’m definitely open to something more consistent when I’m home. If you ever need help or want to chat, feel free to reach out — I’m always happy to answer questions or share references!

I have over 30 years of experience in the childcare field both as a nanny for several families and at two day cares as a head teacher in the infant, toddler, and preschool rooms.  I Love children and enjoy doing crafts, educational activities ( letters, numbers, colors, shapes, workbooks and reading) to help them reach their age appropriate milestones.  I like to also plan and take child on age appropriate, fun and educational outings . I love to play games and read.  I do believe in discipline (mostly time outs) for age 2 and over but also positive reinforcements and encouragement.  I am loving, responsible, and firm.  I like to foster responsibility and self reliance...teaching children to pick up their toys, dress themselves etc... but teach and help them with these abilities at their age level.  I give hugs and praise often.

I have worked in childcare for ten years as well as over 35 years babysitting experience. I received my Child Development Associate (CDA) through the State of Michigan in Infants and Toddlers. I am current with all vaccines including covid/booster and flu shot as well as TDAP. I have CPR and First Aid training. I am a reliable, dependable babysitter. I am also a fun babysitter! I love playing games, arts and crafts, and exploring nature.
