Find experienced nannies in Waverly, MN

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.

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!

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!

Hi! I'm Gabby Knooihuizen, and I'm a freshman at the University of Kansas studying elementary education. In my previous summer jobs, I've been working at Orono Community Ed and Holy Name of Jesus School S.A.C. program as a children's care aide.

Hi, I'm Kelley and I love kids! I'm twenty one and I have almost ten years of experience in childcare. I am CPR, first aid and pca certified. I babysit for families, help in my church nursery, and I've done childcare for my bible study, worked at an after school childcare center, have done some pca work, and have held several nanny jobs. I have a passion for kids, and I'm happiest when I'm with them. I plan on working with kids as a career choice. Children are amazing, and I just love spending time with them. I enjoy playing games with them, reading to them, playing pretend, playing outside and doing outdoor activities and educational toys/games! I think they are so cute and fun! I'm responsible, mature and reliable, but also love to have fun with them! In my free time I like to babysit, be outside, go shopping and hang out with friends.

Hi, I'm Kara — a highly experienced caregiver, nurse, nutritionist, mother of three, and lifelong nurturer with a passion for helping families thrive. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Nursing and a degree in Dietetics (Food Science and Human Nutrition). I’ve worked as a school nurse, public health nurse, hospital nurse, and case manager. I’ve also worked as an independent nutritionist, helping many mothers and fathers discover practical, nourishing ways to feed their families with confidence. Before raising my own children, I was a dedicated nanny for many years. I bring a unique combination of warmth, structure, creativity, and energy into every home. I was raised on a farm in Iowa, started babysitting early, and still have a close relationship with the family I nannied for growing up. My life is rooted in service, faith, and joyful homemaking — I love preparing homemade, nutritious meals and also enjoy gourmet cooking. Managing a home, gardening, and creating a peaceful, well-run household are things I truly enjoy. I also run an apothecary business, handcrafting herbal products for natural health and wellness. I’m highly active and in very good shape — certified in Pilates and passionate about yoga, hiking, biking, and outdoor adventures. I love engaging kids in age-appropriate activities, whether that’s crafts and science experiments with younger ones or outdoor excursions, baking, art projects, or life-skills support with tweens and teens. I enjoy connecting with older children through meaningful conversation, encouragement, and helping them build independence and confidence. I understand that every child has a unique personality — from energetic explorers to quiet thinkers — and I’m flexible in meeting them where they are. While I’m not an expert in electronics or gaming, I’m happy to learn what they enjoy or provide gentle structure around healthy boundaries and screen time when needed. Whether we’re planning a nature outing, talking through a tough day, or just making a great meal together, I bring creativity, enthusiasm, and patience into everything I do. If you're looking for someone who can care deeply, move quickly, manage your household, and nurture your children’s minds and hearts — I’d love to support your family.
