Find experienced child care providers in Winsted, MN

Hi! My name is Sam, and I have over six years of experience caring for children ranging from 2 months to 12 years old. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and I love creating a fun, engaging, and screen-free environment for kids. I enjoy doing arts and crafts, cooking, and baking with children, helping them explore their creativity while learning new skills. As a college student, I have pretty open availability, except for the middle of the day, and I’m comfortable around pets. Families often tell me that I’m reliable, energetic, and great with kids, and I’m proud to have amazing recommendations. My goal is always to provide a safe, happy, and nurturing space where children can thrive and have fun!

Hi! I'm Amy, and I've worked with children for nearly 15 years in various capacities - as a wilderness guide, childcare center teacher, nanny, au pair in Switzerland, and coach. I currently guide kids ages 3-14 with Wilderness Awakening, where we explore and deepen our connection to nature and let curiosity lead the way. I'm passionate about holistic wellbeing and love equipping children with grounding tools like breath work, yoga, song, and mindful movement. I believe in creating spaces where children feel seen, safe, and free to be exactly who they are. Growing up on 10 acres exploring without boundaries, I developed a deep connection to the natural world - and I bring that same sense of wonder, presence, and playfulness to my work with children. I'm patient, creative, and skilled at holding boundaries with kindness. My background includes early childhood care, nature programs, and documentary filmmaking. I hold a B.A. in Global Studies with an emphasis on Human Rights and Justice from the University of Minnesota. Available for flexible childcare through early February before departing for a documentary project in Thailand. Based in Minneapolis with my dog Kofi. I'd love to support your family!

Hello! My name is Theresa Kelly. My husband I have raised three amazing daughters and now have an adorable two year old granddaughter. Growing up in Minnetonka, my favorite thing to do was to babysit. I loved it and had many jobs and was paid well. I went on babysitting trips with families, and in high school stayed with kiddos when parents went out of town. After high school I attended the university of Minnesota- Duluth and received a teaching degree in Elementary education. About that same time, our first daughter was born. While I was raising my girls for about 12 years I was a lead substitute teacher for the Watertown school district we lived in. I taught preschool through eighth grade and enjoyed the variety and flexibly. I have done several long term positions since then and taught preschool for 7 years. About four years ago I decided to go back to substitute teaching. I work in three different districts and have had full time work because the need is so high and I am often requested. I have loved it and am good at it, I think because I love all age levels, I am very adaptable, and have a great re pore with kids. Due to Covid, I at least for this year will not be substitute teaching. There is too much uncertainty and I work in 11 different buildings so I've decided too make a change. With everything going on in the world right now, heart goes out to families with young children. I know they have so many difficult decisions to make and a lot on their plates. I have no worries on finding other work, but as I have shared, I love working with children so becoming a nanny seems it would be a perfect fit, if I can find a family that is right for me. I'd love an opportunity to meet you and learn about your needs as a family to see if I'm the right nanny for you!

I am a college student at University of St Thomas majoring in psychology. I have 4 years of experience babysitting and love forming close relationships with the children I nanny. I am able to do light housekeeping and cooking. I love being active outside, going to the park, the beach, watching movies, or doing art projects! I am a responsible driver and am willing to drive kids to various activities and outings. I am certified in CPR and first aid training. I hope you consider me for any and all hours.

Hi! My name is Elizabeth and I am 26 years old. I have a lot of experience working with kids of all ages, from infants to teenagers. I come from a large family and regularly have done all housekeeping duties at home, such as cleaning, cooking, grocery shopping, laundry, as well as watching the kids. I have 7 younger siblings and babysat them often growing up, as well as for many other friends and families. I have had multiple nanny jobs and worked at daycares in the infant and toddler rooms as well! I have been pediatric and adult CPR and First Aid certified. I also have completed a certified child development course online. I am a single mom of a super chill 1 year old girl(born 6/23). She's a very happy girl and adjusts to new surroundings and people easily. Would you be okay with her coming along with me? I understand if not. I'm currently a nanny for a family with a 2yo and 6m old where I bring my daughter with, but they will no longer need care come September, so I’m looking for another family! I would love to hear back from you and learn more if this position is still available!
