Hi, I'm Jenna! I attend the North Central Michigan Collegein Petoskey, MI. If you're in need of a dependable babysitter or nanny near the North Central Michigan College , look no further! Don't hesitate to get in touch. I can't wait to meet your family!

I am 18 years old, I just graduated high school and will be spending a year at NCMC, then transferring to GVSU! I love working with kids and am going into the children’s wellness social work field! I have been working around kids since I was 13! I have experience with special needs due to growing up with a special needs brother. I am CPR certified and willingly to get first aid certified as well! I have been babysitting the same family for the past 5 years, growing up along side their two boys. I also spent my mornings last spring volunteering at the Early Learners Building in Boyne City, working with 3 years olds! I have a lot of experience with special needs due to my brother having severe autism. I’ve helped my mother care for him my whole life and I have lots of patience for children like him. Whether they are just mute, have ADHD, or have extreme autism, I understand everyone has their differences and I am very willing to learn how to support them! I enjoy taking the kids to the park and watching/playing with them on the playgrounds. I also enjoy going on walks, taking them swimming, and even just playing in the yard. Inside, I enjoy coloring with them, playing with legos, and even just going along with pretend play. Although I don’t have legitimate nannying experience, my favorite moment from my other family was both of the boys making me hand made cards for my graduation party and coming and giving me hugs. It melted my heart! The most important part of being a nanny in my opinion is having a great relationship with the children as well as the parents. Being able to have trust, respect, and support for all parties is very important when it comes to allowing someone to watch and keep children safe.

. Hello! My name is Zoe. I have been babysitting for as long as I can remember. I have a love for caring and nurturing young minds. I am a college student whose classes are all online so my schedule is VERY flexible. I love to do fun activities like playing outside, making craft and even helping with school work. I think it's a privilege to be able to impact young minds. The only thing is I currently do not own a car. I am from Michigan and moved here on my own back in 2023 and am still working for that car. I have my own ways of transportation to get to you though so that will not be a problem at all! Hoping to hear back from you soon! Thanks for reading!

Hi I'm Sarah! I have always had a passion and grew up knowing I wanted to work with children. It started in high school where I was able to take a reading tutor lab course. We would go over to the lower elementary schools and be tutors and mentors for the kids. This led me to pursue my degree in Early Childhood Education. I graduated in 2016 at North Central Michigan College. Over the almost 10 years since then I have worked in a variety of childcare settings including daycare, preschool, and elementary schools. Over this period of time I maintained my CPR and First Aid certifications. I grew up in Gaylord, Michigan and have moved around the State and have now been in Mount Pleasant with my husband and our 3 cats for about 5 years. I love to read, take photos and be out in nature as much as I can.I am looking forward to being able to help families out and give them peace of mind that their families are safe and cared for. I can't wait to work with you! :)

I love hanging out with children and making them feel safe and comfortable while their parents are away.

I have 25 years of experience working with children as a professional nanny, daycare provider, assistant preschool teacher, and babysitter. I have a degree in Early Childhood Education and have worked with many families long-term, as well as providing short-term, occasional, and date-night care.I have experience with children of all ages, but preschool and early elementary are my favorite stages—they’re curious, funny, and at such a great age for learning and exploring! My caregiving style combines child-led activities with gentle guidance, blending Montessori-inspired independence with more traditional learning. I believe in clear boundaries and consistent routines while also staying flexible to each child and family.I love being outdoors, exploring, doing hands-on projects, and letting kids get a little dirty! I also enjoy incorporating early academics through reading, educational activities, projects, homework help, and tutoring. I know basic ASL and Spanish and enjoy introducing both naturally through everyday activities.I’m professional, reliable, organized, and very clean. I’m comfortable managing children’s schedules and routines and always clean up after the kids and our activities.I’m currently looking for part-time positions, date nights, and occasional care. For regular ongoing positions, I’m primarily seeking families with children ages 3+. I’m happy to consider occasional or date-night care for younger children, but I’m not currently taking infant/toddler positions that require frequent lifting or carrying throughout the day.
