Hello! I’m Stacey, a lifelong Minnesotan and proud mom of two successful adult children. With over 18 years of professional childcare experience, I bring creativity, calmness, and a positive, active energy to every family I work with. I genuinely love caring for children of all ages and have a special place in my heart for newborns and babies. I specialize in overnight newborn care, providing gentle, nurturing support during those important early months. Whether it’s assisting with nighttime feedings, soothing sleep routines, or helping establish healthy sleep habits, I’m here to give both your baby—and you—peace of mind throughout the night.

Many families I’ve worked with have stayed with me for years, and I’m proud to have excellent letters of recommendation to share. I am committed to maintaining a safe, healthy environment for your children. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your little ones with the same love and dedication you would, I’d love to hear from you. Thank you for considering me! Warmly, Stacey

I have over six years of experience working with children of all ages in positions as both a teacher and a caregiver, and I adore what I do. I started off as a babysitter for family friends & people in my neighborhood, and later worked as both a first grade faith formation teacher and nursery attendant at my church. Throughout high school I taught musical theatre classes for children 3-12 at a studio in Minneapolis. I've nannied for the past two summers, most recently for a family with a year and a half old daughter and a 13 week old daughter, and I would really love to nanny again this summer. Outside of working with children, I'm currently a BFA Acting student at Columbia College Chicago. I have three years of dance training, nine years of training as a singer, and five years of piano. I love to be outside, especially in the summer, and I love to bake.

My name is Mara I have been babysitting and nannying for 13 years. I am BLS certified. I work as a CNA at a pediatric clinic. I love to do arts and crafts and plan activities to do with the children. In my free time I spend time with family and friends and go horseback riding. I love building forts and playing board games with kids. I am very caring.

I am a grandmother of four wonderful energetic children aged 6, two 3 yr olds and a 2 yr old. I often take all four to the park, have picnics and even have wild slumber parties at grandmas house. I love children and truly enjoy playing, being creative and teaching new things. Reading to children is one of my favorite things to do, singing if they’ll let me. I am patient, kind, and nurturing as I know children need this more than anything. Being a grandma has been a true joy for me and I enjoy children and all the laughter and fun they bring.

Hi. I have been a teacher for the last 5 years at a private school in hopkins for ages of 6 months to 5 years. I have recently left that job and am a Educational assistant at a charter high school in Minnetonka working with young adults on the spectrum. I am CPR and first aid certified and also have my Child Development Associate. Looking for PT work after 4:30 during the week and also available some weekend hours.

As a new mother it made me remember how much I love children and the joy they can bring. I grew up babysitting the neighborhood children, to helping take on my two younger siblings almost full time by the time I was 15. I have about 15+ years of babysitting under my belt, but this would be a first at professional babysitting and nannying. I love arts and crafts and even started my own business selling my creations to those that shared the same interests my pieces were inspired by. Whether it be going for a walk, playing games, or reading a book, all things can be so much better when you have children to enjoy it with. Your kids might ask you for flips and to spin in circles after being watched by me. For that I apologize in advance but it's so much fun for kids I can't help but do it when asked. If you have any questions feel free to message me and I will respond as soon as I can. Thank you and have a wonderful day.
