A little bit about me

Hi! I’m an energetic and caring caregiver with 6 years of babysitting experience and 3 years as a residential camp counselor, working with kids ages 11 mo–17. I’m an Elementary and Special Education major and currently work as an ABA therapist supporting children with autism. I’m patient, empathetic, and creative, and I love staying on the move—whether that’s playing outside, doing crafts, or turning everyday moments into fun learning opportunities. I’ll be CPR/First Aid certified by May and always aim to create a safe, positive, and happy environment where kids feel supported and excited to be themselves!

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Katie, I am a freshman at Boston University majoring in psychology on a pre-medical track and will be living in my hometown Madison, Wisconsin this summer! I have been babysitting for as long as I can remember for younger cousins, neighbors, coworkers and family friends. I worked as my first nanny during the winter of [phone number hidden] with a boy and two girls and LOVED it. I love being active and crafting with kids and letting their imagination flow as well as going on safe and cost effective adventures . I am a very safe driver who has never been in any accidents and I am extremely careful about who I see and where I go due to the pandemic. I plan on getting tested weekly upon my return to Madison to ensure not only the safety of myself, but also you and your family. I arrive in Madison the second week of May (and can start ASAP) and leave for school the second week of August.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Amelia, and I’ve been a nanny for over five years. I have experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns to 12-year-olds, and I truly love what I do. My most recent position was with a wonderful family in New York, where I cared for two children from the time the oldest was just six months old and before the youngest was even born. Over 2½ years together, I supported their growth through every milestone, from first steps to first days of preschool.

I’m a fun, energetic, and hands-on nanny who loves keeping kids engaged through creative activities like arts and crafts, baking, and outdoor adventures. I believe in creating a safe, nurturing, and joyful environment where children can learn, play, and thrive. Whether it’s exploring a park, trying out a new recipe, or doing a craft project, I always bring enthusiasm, patience, and care to every day.
