A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Amanda, a Lead Toddler Teacher with over three years of experience working with young children in licensed childcare centers. I’m CPR & First Aid certified and passionate about creating calm, safe, and engaging environments where children can learn through play and feel truly supported.

I especially love working with toddlers and young children, and I value routines, gentle guidance, and age-appropriate activities that build confidence and independence. I’m reliable, nurturing, and communicative, and I understand how important trust and consistency are for families.

I’m currently available every other weekend and would love to support a family looking for dependable, experienced care.

A little bit about me

Hello! I am a pre-PA student looking for some part-time work as I await school to begin. I loved working with kids at the clinic, and I figured a job working with kids would be fun and rewarding. I'm willing to work odd hours provided I am notified ahead of time, and I have transportation available. I am also willing to do light housework, meal prepping, and tutoring if needed.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Bella and I am currently a college student at Schoolcraft College. I was looking for a way to possibly make some extra money and do something I enjoy! I love interacting with kids and have spent a lot of my life baby sitting for family and friends. I also was a gymnastics coach for children ages 3-5 and I loved it, so I figured this would be a great fit for me.
