A little bit about me

I’m a 25+ career nanny who is a strong child and family advocate. I’m looking to find a family I can grow with long term. My favorite age group is infant-5 but I enjoy all ages.
I am active and love to be outdoors. I seek to help family’s achieve their personal and professional goals by acting as strong support system and child rearing guide using my extensive experience and each family’s unique lifestyle and values. Let’s chat and see if we are a good match!

Certifications in:
*safe sleep
*CPR/First aid
*chid sexual abuse prevention
*state registered CPST
(Child passenger safety technician)

If you see things that aren’t fit for your family, I would recommend you investigate and ask questions some things are negotiable and if you are looking for a professional, responsible, knowledgeable nanny, you will find that in me! Childcare and family support is my passion!

* I have also held positions as Family assistant and Household manager and am interested in those as well.

Madison W. - Seeking Work in Grand Rapids

Babysitter Available in Grand Rapids, MI: Madison W.

I grew up in Traverse City, Michigan, and am the youngest of six. I have always loved kids, and enjoy watching my little nieces, nephew and cousins. I have had numerous babysitting and nannying jobs, all of which have been so enjoyable, being able to interact with little kids and watch their minds grow. I love going to the beach, doing crafts, and watching Disney movies. I attended Kendall College of Art and Design after graduating from TCW in 2021, took some time to travel alone, and am now back in TC! Teaching kids how to be independent and trust themselves is my favorite part of being a caretaker.
