Find experienced nannies in Watertown, MN

Hello! My name is Julia, I’m 30 years old, and I was born and raised in Minnesota. I’ve been working as an independent nanny for the past several years for a few families. I have experience with a wide array of ages and ability levels, from infant to teens. I most recently was a nanny part time for a family with three boys under 4 years old. Prior to becoming a nanny, I worked as a direct support professional and independent living skills counselor in a group home and in community based settings. I worked with individuals with severe and persistent mental illnesses and neurodivergent individuals, helping them learn life and coping skills. I have also worked with children with autism and Down Syndrome during my time as a nanny. I am very contentious about safety, and am fully vaccinated against COVID. I have ten plus years of child care and related experience and am CPR and first aid trained. I have also taken child development safety courses including SIDS and head trauma. In my free time I enjoy photography, arts and crafts, gardening, and spending time with my fiancé up north anywhere near Lake Superior. I would love a chance to talk with or meet you and your little one/s! I hope to hear from you soon! Julia

Hello! My name is Maia and I am a 30-year-old stay-at-home mother to a beautiful one-year-old baby girl. Ever since I was a child, I knew that I was meant to be a mother. My experience with children starts at age 7 when my little sister was born. I took on the role of a second mother to her, tending to her needs by changing diapers, giving her baths, feeding her, and putting her to bed. All together I have 6 younger siblings. In addition to my familial experiences, I also have babysitting and daycare experience with infants, toddlers and school-age children. My intuitive, nurturing and empathetic nature have always been at the core of who I am, guiding my interactions with children. Furthermore, I am very attentive, patient and kind. I love finding educational, screen-free activities to do, along with getting some outside time when the weather permits it. I am comfortable doing any cleaning, cooking, helping with homework, house managing, etc. I am also comfortable around all pets and will help take care of them, as well. References are available! I have experience with watching several children at once. I also have experience with autistic children in a professional setting. Communication and organization is key with me.

*My schedule is currently full, but I may have some availability in the near future (1-2 weekdays).* I nanny/babysit for over 50 families around the Minneapolis suburbs and it just keeps growing (so grateful!) I love creating meaningful relationships and value being a Christian. I volunteer in the infant nursery at church 2-3 times a month. I'm certified in Pediatric CPR and First Aid and have 8+ years of nanny experience. I'm experienced with newborns up to age 14, including twins and 5+ kids at a time. I also do multiple overnights, trips and 24/7 care up to several days at a time. Including pets. I really enjoy spending time with babies and young children whether it's cuddle time, going to the park or pool, walks, playing, reading, crafts, play dates, etc. I'm the type of person to be constantly present and engaged in the children. I believe that they need to have a lot interaction and loving care. I am a very dedicated, trustworthy and caring person who wants the best for others!

Hello! I am a 33 year old musician and photographer originally from Wayzata, MN and currently residing in the Lowry Hill neighborhood of Minneapolis. I attended New York University, graduated in 2013 and stayed on in NYC until 2019 when I moved back home to be near family and have more access to nature again. I’ve worked in restaurants as a hostess and babysat on and off over the years to supplement my income as an artist. I have over 10 years of babysitting experience with children of all ages and am also the oldest of three children. When I'm babysitting, I like to be creative with the kids- play games, tell stories, do art projects, play music and dance, or just be silly and laugh a lot. I also love being outside and am a big fan of going to the park or the playground. If necessary, I am fair and firm when it comes time to discipline. I love animals, especially dogs so pets in the house are not an issue. I am also comfortable helping kids with home/schoolwork and light tutoring. I drive a 2014 Ford Fiesta and am able to provide transportation while caring for children.

My name is Isabel Halonen and I am 20 years old. I currently work as a Part-time nanny (a couple of days in the week.) I have a ton of experience working with kiddos in all different types of environments including daycares, schools, babysitting, and nannying. I also am an auntie to 7 nieces and nephews! I worked as a Lead Infant teacher at The Gardner School in Minnetonka for about a year and this was such an amazing job getting to teach and navigate these young minds! I most recently got married and moved out to Cokato which is why I am looking for a nanny job closer to where I live. I also have experience babysitting/nannying for 4+ kiddos and am comfortable with up to 6 kids. I love all ages, but especially love the infant/toddler ages! I love engaging in play and being outdoors when possible. If you need me to do extra duties around the house (not including the common stuff like cleaning, doing dishes, etc) I am more than happy to help out!

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!

I am a 45 year old mother of an 11 year old boy. I live in Excelsior and my son goes to MMW. I love all ages and I am very patient. I understand the importance of having the ability to “parent” as instructed and not by my methods (although my methods are very conventional). I use a lot of affirmations and and confidence building techniques as I feel it is important to develop throughout younger years. My son plays baseball and hockey so I am familiar with the sport schedule demands. I have always had dogs and I’ve had a 2 cats. I love horses and used to barrel race. I also have a bearded dragon, haha don’t ask. I love working with children and love animals. I’m looking forward to hearing from you 😊
