Hi! My name is Learys (Lea), I’m 18 years old and a student at the University of South Dakota. I’m bilingual in English and Spanish, and I would describe myself as outgoing, caring, patient, responsible, and creative. I love staying active, doing crafts and activities, being outdoors, and finding ways to make everyday routines fun for kids.I have several years of experience caring for children, including professional experience at the SEE School of Early Childhood Education. I started as a childcare assistant and eventually became a Head Teacher, where I was responsible for groups of children, daily routines, activities, meals, transitions, safety, and creating a fun and welcoming environment. I’ve worked with children across different age groups and am comfortable adapting to different personalities, needs, and routines.Outside of childcare centers, I also have babysitting experience, so I’m comfortable caring for children in their own homes and following each family’s preferences. I can help with meals and snacks, homework, bedtime routines, crafts, games, outdoor play, and keeping things tidy along the way. I’m also comfortable communicating with parents and providing updates while they’re away.Working with children is something I genuinely enjoy, and I love getting to know each child rather than treating babysitting like simply “watching” them. My goal is for parents to feel confident leaving their children with me and for the kids to be excited when they hear I’m coming back!

Hi! My name is Paisley H, I’m 18 years old, and I just graduated at the top of my high school class. This fall, I’ll be attending South Dakota State University to study Pediatric Nursing—a path I chose because of my deep love for working with children and the joy they bring into my life. I have over six years of babysitting experience, caring for children of all ages through family, family friends, and community connections. During my junior and senior years, I worked as a classroom aide in a 2nd-grade classroom and participated in my school's elementary mentoring program for three years. I also serve as a Religious Education teacher at my church, teaching kindergarteners. One of my greatest joys is being a Godmother to my niece and nephew, whom I absolutely adore. Last summer, I worked as a CNA, where I gained hands-on experience and became certified in CPR, the Heimlich maneuver, and other first aid techniques—skills that are especially valuable when caring for children. Outside of childcare, I enjoy going on walks, swimming, doing Pilates, reading, spending time in the sun, and being with my family and friends. I’m very family-oriented and bring patience, responsibility, and enthusiasm to every babysitting job. I would love the opportunity to care for your children and provide a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for them to thrive in!

Hello! It's Abigail here, a student enrolled at the South Dakota State University in Brookings, SD. If you're in need of a trustworthy babysitter or experienced nanny near our campus, I'd be thrilled to connect with you and your family. Reach out and let's start a conversation!

I am currently in college going into nursing. I have a part time job but babysitting is a side job. I love kids and I’ve had a few paid babysitting jobs from relatives. I took care of my nephew since he was born so I can do pretty much anything.
