Hello! My name is Aimee, I am 20 years old and I am experienced in child care. I worked at a daycare in Springfield for almost a year with newborns and pre school aged children. The past two years I have been babysitting two boys part time and occasional weekends with a different family in Chatham who have 4 children. I am extremely reliable, trustworthy and up beat. All kids that I have worked with in the past seemed to take a quick liking to me.

Hi, my name is Marissa, and I would love to tell you a little about myself. I am a huge animal lover, I love reading, swimming, and spending time with my family. I have been taking care of children since I was 16 years old. Some of the positions I've had were being a babysitter, a nanny, a mother's helper, and a daycare assistant. I am currently working on getting my Associate's Degree in Early Childhood Education. I have also taken many classes on how I can improve the care and well being of the children I take care of. I have experience taking care of children between the ages of 3 weeks old to 14-year-olds. I love coming up with fun arts and crafts projects that encourage creativity, going on fun and educational outings like going to the library, the museum, the beach, the zoo, going to events geared towards children, and many more places. I also enjoy coming up with fun activities to do: doing science experiments, baking, exploring the outdoors, going on walks, and reading

Hi! I’m Addison. I’m a college freshman at Central Michigan University majoring in Spanish and Biology: Biomedical, Cellular, and Molecular. I have over two years of experience working with children through teaching, tutoring, and coaching, and I’m CPR and First Aid certified. I’ve worked with kids from infants to 12 years old, including as both a teacher assistant and a lead teacher in the school age room, where I planned fun lessons and activities. I’m currently looking for a part-time nannying or babysitting position that’s flexible with my school schedule, and I plan to take winter, spring, and summer breaks off. I’m patient, organized, and love helping kids learn and grow. I’d love to get to know your family and see if I might be a good fit!

Recently retired from 31 years of service with General Motors. I’ve moved back to Kalamazoo to care for my mom. She is the only family I have left, and I want to cherish the golden years. However, I’m not ready to be completely retired, therefore I’m available for your child/pet/household needs. I am independent, motivated and responsible. I pay attention to details and have excellent time management skills. Cooking meals and keeping up with the laundry are not a problem. Keeping your home running, as if you never left. Safety first, is my top priority and I believe that all accidents are preventable, if you take 2 for safety first. Your home is your sanctuary, as is mine. Therefore, I will treat your property with utmost respect. I’m extremely seasoned, and I have been taking care of families for years, families that are now my family. I take pride in myself and my appearance. I show up on time ( 10 minutes before starting work), and I will always keep you updated about your household, while you are away. I will never post anything about you, or your family, or anything related to my work. I am very aware of the importance of privacy and the safety of your family. I was raised in a different time, and I am thankful for the village it took to raise me. I hope I can be a part of your village. Sincerely, Ms Kerry

Hi, my name is India, I am 20 years old. I graduated with the class of 2023 from Kalamazoo Central High School. I enjoy working with and around kids as well as animals. I enjoy being in nature and doing artsy things. I have worked with kids of all ages from newborn to 11 years old and kids and adults with autism ages 3 to 24. I have always adored being around kids, toddlers, and infants so I feel this would be a good and exciting side job. I ask $16-$22 an hour but that may vary depending on distance and if special care is needed. I’m currently taking a break from school right now so I have more time. I have 2 jobs one working for a security company and providing assistance on Comstock busses through KRESA from 9-9:30 and again at 1pm-3:00pm and my other job working at PCEC from 3:30-6pm and always free on weekends. I look forward to hearing from you if you decided to allow me to sit for your family.
