Rebecca E., Nanny in South Lyon, MI 48178 with 10 years of paid experience

Hello everyone! My name is Rebecca (age 24). I am a current MSW student at U-M in their children, youth, and families pathway. I am looking for occasional babysitting opportunities for kids of all ages. My basic information is as follows: I focus on verbal communication with children, validating feelings, and breathing exercises when overwhelmed. I completely avoid timeouts or any negative reinforcement. I have ~10 years paid experience with ages 3mos to 14yrs old; up to four children at one time. I have my own reliable transportation, with a completely clean driving record, and can happily drive the kids to fun activities such as the park, the zoo, or splash pad. I am more than comfortable with pets so bring on the furry friends!! My guaranteed payment methods include cash, check, or zelle. I look forward to your messages :). Take care! (Edited 9/25/2026)

Rebecca has been absolutely wonderful with our children and around the house. She is jovial, punctual, and thoughtful. In addition to taking great care of the kids and engaging them in stimulating activities, she has helped with laundry, organizing, meal prep, and more. She is always asking how else she can be helpful and takes initiative to find ways to make our and the kids' lives easier. She always has an upbeat attitude and is very easy to work with. She’s a gem!

I'm a dependable, caring nanny who genuinely enjoys spending time with children and supporting families. I strive to create a safe, engaging, and positive environment where kids can learn, grow, and feel comfortable being themselves. Whether we're doing creative activities, spending time outdoors, helping with developmental milestones or simply following a consistent routine. I bring patience, reliability, and a calm approach to each day. I understand that every family is unique, and I take pride in adapting to each child's personality and needs while maintaining open communication with parents. My goal is to be a trusted, supportive presence that helps make family life run a little more smoothly. I look forward to building meaningful connections and providing attentive, compassionate care.

Alexis watched out 1.5 year old daughter for a few hours when we were in a pinch to find a sitter. She showed up early and navigated a new child and situation great.

I am an loving and responsible mother of a beautiful young lady. I have over 40 years experience caring for children in private homes and in licensed day care centers. I successfully raised my daughter alone. She is now a college graduate and is employed in her field of study. I also have over 30 years as a cook/chef, both privately and in day cares, hospitals, hotels, and senior living centers. I also have creative and artistic talent, which in the past has helped with not just school projects, homework, but also with activities to help to build a child's imagination. I enjoy cooking, sports, playing games, reading and arts and crafts.

Maureen was absolutely incredible with our girls! I have a 2 year old and 3 month old and she was able to watch them throughout a long weekend when we had numerous events to attend. My 2yr old is quite active and energetic and Maureen kept up with entertaining her amazingly. She also was so kind and sweet with my littlest one. It was such a piece of mind to have her as our sitter while we were on our trip and she truly treated them like family.

Valerie R., Nanny in South Lyon, MI 48178 with 12 years of paid experience

Hi, my name is Valerie and I am interested in part-time childcare work. I am a mom of 5 Vikings ( as my husband and I call them). My two oldest have moved out, and I have 2 in High School and 1 in Community College. I have been a stay-at-home mom for (most of) 23 yrs. I started following my kids to school, and volunteering in classrooms until the school finally hired me! When I realized that my kids would rather be with their friends I decided it was time to get out of the house. My neighbor agreed and offered me up as a nanny for friends of hers. I obtained my CPR certification and accepted a temporary Nanny position, part-time, for an infant. I so enjoyed my time with a little again! My position ended when circumstances changed and the family moved from the area. Since that first job, I’ve had a family in town for two days for work and hired me to care for their infant for a few days. Then two very lovely families who each only needed me part of the week became my primary jobs and kept my schedule full. Then it happened. A job offer for Husband, in Michigan. Since we are originally from Michigan, we made the very difficult decision to move. Yay Husband. Bummer to leave the families I had been a part of. Pre-Husband and Vikings, I earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Earth Science at Central Michigan University. Being a bit of a wanderer, I found myself in Chicago working at an Ad Agency! My family and I moved to Greensboro about 8yrs ago, and loved having both mountains and Ocean available for our adventures. However, the never ending heat and humidity will not be missed. I enjoy getting outdoors daily, and perhaps it’s the Earth Science background, but I love taking the little ones outside and introducing them to the trees, flowers, birds, whatever we come across. Kids are such natural sponges, they soak it all in. Having the opportunity to smell or touch or hold something greatly improves their understanding of their environment.

Meemee E., Nanny in South Lyon, MI 48178 with 8 years of paid experience

Hello! I’m Meemee—a 24-year-old University of Michigan graduate with a Bachelor’s degree in Health Sciences. I currently work part-time as a certified pharmacy technician while preparing for graduate school, and I continue to offer occasional babysitting services for families seeking trusted, compassionate care. With over 9 years of hands-on childcare experience—from helping raise my younger siblings to supporting local families—I bring a calm, nurturing, and dependable presence to every home. I’ve supported children of all ages, from toddlers to teens, including those with special needs and medical complexities. My younger brother, who battled cancer for many years, was a central part of my life. As one of his primary caregivers, I developed not only practical care skills, but deep patience, empathy, and a strong sense of responsibility. I’m certified in CPR, First Aid, and Bloodborne Pathogen safety, and I have my own reliable transportation. I’m comfortable preparing meals, helping with homework, offering light tutoring, or simply making sure your children feel safe, engaged, and cared for in your absence. Whether you need last-minute help, after-school care, or support for date nights or weekends away, I’m here to provide peace of mind. If you’re looking for thoughtful, professional, heart-led care, I’d be honored to support your family.

Did a great job with my 7, then 8 year-old son. Helped with school during the pandemic. Him and her grew pretty close.

Hi! I’m Kristina, and I have over six years of professional childcare experience caring for children from infancy through school age. Working with children has always been more than a job for me—it’s something I’m genuinely passionate about.

I believe in building strong relationships with both children and parents through open communication, consistency, and trust. My goal is always to support each family’s unique parenting style while providing reliable, loving care. Whether you’re looking for occasional help, a part-time nanny, or someone who will become a trusted extension of your family, I’d love the opportunity to connect and learn more about your needs.
