Find experienced child care providers in Wayland, MI

My name is Layne Gadberry. I am 31 yrs old and have lived in Michigan for almost 6 years. I live with my sweet 2 year old dog, Luna. My hobbies are reading, yoga, adventures with my pup, spending time with my sister, playing soccer, going to the beach, community based activities and art! I have loved children since I was literally a child myself. I found out in the last few years that my grandmother is the same way! Children are an essential part of my joy and bring so much positive energy to my life. I have been babysitting since I was around 10 and have worked at day camps, a children's museum, crisis nursery (my heart job), as a nanny, a pool and a residential home for girls.  I have been a career nanny for five years. I have a reliable car and a clean background etc. I have much infant experience as well as multiples, including twins I have been CPR, first aid and car seat safety trained, as well as training in trauma informed care.

Hello! I am an Early Childhood Special Education Teacher. I am available for after-school care (4:30-9) and any time on the weekends. I chose a career working with children because I love their active imaginations and kind hearts. I enjoy spending time talking with children, making crafts, creating science projects, playing outdoors, exploring nature, reading and learning! Please feel free to contact me if you believe I would make a good caregiver for your child/children!

Hi, my name is Lavender and I’m 34 years old. I have been a career nanny since 2014 with experience dating back to 2007. I am from a small town in Michigan and have been living in Grand Rapids since 2016 when a live-in position brought me to the area. I have previously worked as a live-in nanny here in Michigan, as well as Hawaii California, Florida + North Carolina. I have extensive experience with newborns in particular, but primarily work with ages 0-2. I am CPR certified and know basic first aid skills (I am willing to become re-certified in first aid if need be). I began working with children at age 13 when I assisted in a family friend's daycare for two full summers. After that, I nannied for triplets during the summer at age 15. I babysat on and off until college, when I got my first full-time nanny job for infant twins. In between nanny jobs, I went back to the corporate world. I was hoping to get in some experience so that when I graduated, I'd have adequate experience to get a good job, but my favorite was always nannying. After graduating college, I worked two career jobs in accounting and finance, but after a year of working in the corporate world again, I decided that nannying was what I really enjoyed. I wasn't happy in my finance jobs and nannying makes me very happy. I adore working with children. I am a very outgoing, charismatic and caring person. I believe if you are happy doing your job, you will be even better at it and nothing makes me happier than working with children. I am currently working for a family full time and will be looking for my next position in August 2025. Feel free to message!

I have a bachelors in Early Childhood Education and I have over fifteen years of experience as a caregiver. I have cared for twin infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and elementary age children.

I have years of experience in caring for children of all ages and have excellent references.I am flexible schedule wise and can help out with food prep, animal care, errands and light housekeeping.

Hi! I’m Skilar! I’ve been a part time nanny for over a year and a date night/occasional sitter for five years! I have my own reliable vehicle so transportation is never a problem! I’m comfortable transporting kids if needed or wanted too! I love baking, art, and outdoor activities and I love to do those with the kids I watch! I also love a fun movie night too, making snacks and building forts! I’d love to further build my experience and make connections with new families as an occasional sitter!

Hello! I’m looking to hangout with some new friends. I work as a lead teacher at tutor time day care and I’m here to find some side work to help reach some goals. I have experience with kids mostly ages 1-4. I’m super creative and patient but most of all I’m engaging. I have such a blast hanging out with kids. I am only available on the weekends unfortunately.

I currently nanny for three boys, but am willing to help out for some date nights or occasional babysitting. I worked in a childcare setting for almost three years before switching to nannying which I have been doing for a little over a year now. I love the personal connection I have with the kids which was not available at a center. I have my degree in Early Childhood Development as well as years of experience. Growing up my mom owned an in-home daycare and I began babysitting at a young age alongside with my sister and then alone by age 12 for families in my neighborhood. I have lots of experience with infants and toddlers as well as multiples as I nanny for twins. Parents definitely need some time away from their kids, and I'm perfect for entertaining and making sure your children are safe while you are out of the house!
