I'm aspiring to be an elementary teacher and have always loved working with kids. Being a sitter comes with a variety of experiences, making no "shift" the same. I've babysat my own siblings as well as kids in my hometown over the years and have loved every experience. I did have my CPR and First Aid certification but it technically expired in May of 2026.

Hi families! I'm a caring, patient, and dependable childcare provider with 3 years of experience working in a preschool and 2 summers of nannying for my younger cousins. Throughout my time in childcare, I had the opportunity to grow from a classroom aide to an experienced aide, and eventually to an assistant lead teacher during my final year. These experiences helped me develop a strong understanding of child development and how to create a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for children. I've worked with children ages 1.5 to 7 and love finding fun, creative ways to keep little ones engaged, whether that's doing arts and crafts, reading books, playing outside, or learning through play. I enjoy helping children build confidence, explore their interests, and reach new milestones while making sure they feel supported and cared for. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your children, and I strive to provide attentive, reliable, and loving care that gives parents peace of mind. I'd love the opportunity to get to know your family and help your little ones learn, grow, and have fun! ♡

Hello! My involvement with children of all ages has been since I was 12 years old. My life was babysitting, housecleaning, running errands, and simply doing what families needed me to do. I graduated with a bachelors in social work and minor in criminology, therefore I’ve done social work all my life. I’ve been a youth social worker at the school, crisis responder, juvenile probation officer, and now working for MNPrairie County Alliance in Steele County as an On-Going Social Worker in Child and Family department. I’ve had lots of training and skills throughout my education and experience. My love for children and helping families will continue☺️

Hello Families! My name is Campbell and I’m a 19-year-old sophomore at Gustavus Adolphus College in Saint Peter, Minnesota. I’ve been babysitting since I was about 10 years old, and for as long as I can remember, I’ve absolutely loved working with kids! I have a wide range of childcare experience, including working in a church nursery caring for multiple infants, serving as a Vacation Bible School counselor for four years with groups of 10–15 children, and babysitting kids from 2 weeks to 12 years old. I'm comfortable caring for up to three children at a time and always aim to create a fun, safe, and nurturing environment. I’m also more than happy to help with household tasks like cleaning, folding laundry, dishes, trash, and cooking. I have my own car and can provide transportation to and from activities as needed. In addition to childcare, I’ve been helping my mom with her cleaning business since I was 10, so I’m very familiar with keeping things tidy! I also offer pet care and have years of experience with both dogs and cats, including walking, feeding, and general care. I play the cello and can assist with string instrument practice, and while I was First Aid certified at 13, I make sure to refresh my knowledge of emergency procedures before each job. There’s nothing I enjoy more than spending time with children, watching them grow, and helping them explore the world around them, it’s truly an honor to be a part of that journey.
