Hi everyone! My name is Taylor V, and I graduated from University of Michigan last year. I am now a certified school social worker, and now that school is out starting next week, I'm really excited to find a family or two that can rely on me to take care of their kids. I am well versed in childcare, tutoring, play therapy, and social emotional learning. I love watching kids grow emotionally and want to help nurture them (with your guidance/approval), which is why I work in schools! I also have experience with neurodiverse children. I don't have kids yet, but I was a nanny from 2012 to 2017. I look forward to chatting with you - I hope we're a match!*I'm also a fan of doing activities instead of screen time. I grew up going on adventures outside and playing inside with my two older brothers.

My name is Rebecca; I am 29 years old, and Igradated from Northwestern University, and I will be attending business school beginning this fall. I work a full time job during the week, but I am looking for weekend and evening jobs. I have a clean driving record, I do not have a criminal record, and I do not smoke or drink. I was a Girl Scout from Kindergarten until my senior year in high school where we learned many important skills such as childcare, first aid, and CPR. When I was in sixth grade, our troop started a babysitter's club which lasted for two years. There were eight of us, and we watched a total of 40 kids at once ages 3-12. We obtained our CPR certification and First Aid Training at this time. I have been babysitting for 11 years. In college I spent a lot of time babysitting children of various ages. The most kids I have watched at one time is six children aged: 3, 5, 6, 7, 9, & 12. I love working with children, and I volunteered in Children's Ministry at my church growing up. I have experience with newborn babies, and I am comfortable watching children of all ages. I would love to watch your kids. Please let me know if you are interested. Thank you so much for reading through my profile

Hi~~ My name’s Mika and I’m a recent grad from UofM. I love taking care of people (of all ages) and love animals. My first jobs were tutoring and babysitting. Looking for a babysitter-tutor 2-for-1? Pick me! I absolutely love learning and helping someone else understand something is such a wonderful feeling.In my free time, I love being active and outdoors. During the spring and summer, I love to longboard, play tennis and ultimate frisbee and during the snowy months, I started learning how to snowboard (which I’m still terrible at). All year round, I’m learning! I’ve been studying French and Spanish and a little Korean.I would love to get to know you and your kid(s) and learn what I can do for you and them. Please send me a message<3

Hi! I'm currently a senior at the University of Michigan majoring in Sociology with a minor in Intergroup Relations, and I'm on the Master's of Social Work track. In the future, I hope to work with children and support their mental and emotional well-being.I've worked with children in many different ways! Outside of being a big sister to my two younger sisters, I babysat throughout middle and high school for family friends and my parents' coworkers. I cared for children ranging from 2 to 11 years old. During my sophomore year of college, I worked as a summer camp counselor for children ages 10–12. While there, I earned my Heartsaver CPR certification, which is still valid today.I'm passionate about not only caring for children but also supporting their individual needs, helping them learn, and creating fun, engaging activities that help them grow. I would love the opportunity to bring that enthusiasm and care to your family!

I love to plan fun days out at the park, beach or horse farm.I look forward to meeting you and your family and hope I could be a good fit for your part-time childcare needs.
