Hello, I’m Linda and I'm 50 years old & a cancer survivor. I have worked as a nanny for over 25 years also including babysitting from my teens and on. I enjoy crafts, rolling around in the grass, looking for bugs, chalking on the sidewalks along w/ trips to parks, museums, swim & music classes, and Library trips for story time. I have also been in the financial industry for twenty nine years but have never lost the love of caring for children. At this time in my life my husband has convinced me to follow what I love. This would be working with children full time. I serve at my church in the infant & two year old room as a lead teacher. I also have worked at Kinder-care & Just Plane Kids. Since I was young I gravitated towards children and my love to be around them as well as caring for them has never changed. I've worked in the financial Industry for 29 years and helped clients with opening accounts to planning their retirement plans. I've opened up 529 Plans for their children and seen them grow up to use these accounts. So in my years of helping families I still benefited helping children. When dealing with clients with children and helping them during tantrums or keeping them busy as their parents review documents. Raising my niece along with working at KinderCare and Just plane Kids for a total of five years. In those years I rotated between the infant room and two year old room. I have experience hands on in facilities but over 20 years of raising and loving other families children. I would love to have the opportunity to meet you and speak to you openly about my experiences and how much I would love to help you care for your children. Thank you for your time, Linda M Arnold Velarde

Hi! My name is Chloe, and I will be a senior in college next fall studying marketing. I have always loved working with kids and have several years of childcare experience. I spent a year and a half nannying for a little girl starting when she was just four months old, which gave me a lot of hands-on experience caring for infants and young children. In addition to that, I have been a summer nanny and regular date-night babysitter for the past seven years for multiple families with kids of all ages. I enjoy creating a fun, safe, and positive environment for children while helping with whatever families need, whether that’s playing games, helping with routines, or keeping things organized around the house. I’m responsible, patient, and truly enjoy building connections with the kids and families I work with. I’d love the opportunity to help out your family!

Hello! My name is Emily and I am looking for a nanny or babysitting job. I currently stay at home with my girls, but before having my daughter, I taught 1st grade and High school special Ed. I majored in Elementary Education in college and graduated in December of 2014. I consider myself to be friendly, responsible and a positive person. I truly enjoy children and have built great relationships with families I have worked with over the years. I'm looking for occasional work on the weekends or evenings when my husband is home! Thanks for viewing my profile!

I currently have fourteen years of exiperence with children of all ages. I had several short term jobs as a nanny and have worked in a daycare for four years total. I have an Associates degree in Early Childhood Education and a bachelors in Child and Adolescent Psychology. I do still babysit on some weekends for families that had children who went to the daycare that I worked at. I as well helped raise my nine year old brother who has autism. I look forward to hearing from you to discuss my qualifications further.

Hi! I’m Isabella. I’m a college student getting my bachelor’s in early childhood/ special education and I’ve been working with children for about two years. I’ve always loved being around kids and helping them learn and grow. I previously worked at the FVSRA special needs summer camp, where I supported children and young adults with different needs. It was a really meaningful experience and taught me a lot about patience, communication, and creating a supportive environment for every child. I currently work at a daycare where I was a lead toddler teacher and now work as a co-teacher in the infant room. Through this, I’ve gained a lot of hands-on experience caring for babies and toddlers, helping with routines, play, learning activities, making assessments, and making sure children feel safe and comfortable. I would describe myself as patient, calm, and very attentive. I enjoy engaging with children through play, reading, sensory activities, and helping them explore and learn new things. My goal is always to create a warm and environment where children feel happy! I’d love the opportunity to help care for your child/ children and be someone your family can rely on. 😊

My name is Mikayla and I am a full-time ER nurse but I have four days off every week! I absolutely love kids as I am the oldest of three boys so if you have a girl that’s a plus! ;) I started as a mother’s helper at the age of 12 and then started babysitting pretty regularly around age 16. I have been a full-time nanny for kids aged as young as 10 weeks to high school! I’m looking for a fun family to nanny/babysit for this summer! I have reliable transportation, a flexible and open schedule, and a heart that is passionate for kids! I’m willing to do meal prep, light housework, and run errands if needed too! Feel free to message me, I would love to talk more! :)

I’m 24 and have been babysitting for families since I was 16! I have healthcare experience as a former CNA as well as Early childhood education classes. I love all animals and don’t mind cleaning or cooking.

I’m 19 years old studying psychology and working full time. Goal-driven, compassionate, empathetic, and adaptable. I love working with and spending time with kiddos! I have three younger siblings, two of which are twins, and one with a sensory disability. One boy (12) and two girls (11)! A cat and dog as well! I’m able to adapt to many different types of children and have been babysitting for friends and family for 6 years now. Infants through pre teen! I’m a lifeguard, so I am First Aid and CPR certified. While I’m not babysitting, I’m in involved in weightlifting and any physical activity—as I’m a former track runner and flag football player! Feel free to reach out for availability information.

With 5 years of hands-on experience, I’ve developed a genuine love for babysitting and working with children. I’ve always felt a strong connection to kids, and through my work, I’ve had the privilege of helping them grow, learn, and explore the world around them. I’m a hard worker who’s dedicated to providing the best care for the children I watch. Whether it’s creating engaging activities, helping with homework, or just being there to listen, I put my all into every job. My background includes a Child Development course I took in high school, which gave me valuable insights into the stages of growth and development in children. This knowledge helps me better understand and meet the unique needs of each child I care for. In addition, I’m currently majoring in psychology and social work with a focus on adolescence. This academic path deepens my understanding of how children think, feel, and develop, which allows me to be more empathetic and supportive in my babysitting role. It’s not just about taking care of kids—it’s about supporting their emotional well-being, guiding their growth, and building a positive, nurturing environment. I love knowing that I’m not only helping children feel safe and comfortable but also contributing to their development and happiness. Babysitting is more than a job for me; it’s a rewarding experience that allows me to make a meaningful difference in their lives.
