A little bit about me

Nice to meet you! Most people call me Maddie. I’m 23 years old and originally from Denver, Colorado. I have been working with kids as long as I can! I love being with my mini best friends and being able to mentor to kids of all ages.
I have volunteered at kids camps, worked at all forms of daycares, private preschools, and public schools. I currently help direct a local kids ministry for the Church and have been a professional nanny for a wonderful family of 4 years.
I am not only CPR/First Aid trained but I have been lifeguard certified with the American Red Cross since high school.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I volunteered at the boys and girls club since I was 14. I was a childcare leader at Trufit athletics. I was a pre-k 2 teacher for a year. I still currently run the kids ministry at my local church. I have been a director for a before and after care program and currently I am professional nanny going on 4 years now.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Somehow I always get deemed art teacher at my daycare jobs! I’m not complaining. I love making crafts with the kids and exploring nature with them

The most important part about being a nanny...

What’s significant about any caretaking role is that it’s an incredible opportunity to be a positive role model. I love building genuine relationships with the kids. Even the toddlers (especially the toddlers) are so aware of what’s going on around them. It’s motivation to always do the right thing and see some good in the world.

My teachers and the daycare I went to as child had a great impact on me. I grew up and still talk to many of them! I hope to be just as impactful to the kids I work with everyday.

My experience with special needs children...

My experience with special needs children is limited. My current kids’ program has a nonverbal youth with an extra chromosome in a wheelchair. I have been learning a lot about how to care for him just recently. In the public school setting, I have a lot of education on autistic kids (with ABA therapy) as well as Down syndrome children and I thoroughly enjoy growing and learning with them.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of my favorite memories is absolutely with my current nanny kids. I rescued a stray bunny (we named her Tangerine) and the kids have been helping taking care of her every day! It’s been precious to watch.

Trisha-Anne B. - Seeking Work in Rapid City

Full-Time Child Care Provider Available in Rapid City, SD: Trisha-Anne B.

Hi! My name is Trisha-Anne, and I’m excited about the opportunity to work as a nanny. I’ve been around and caring for children and babies pretty much my entire life, and caring for little ones has always come naturally to me. I absolutely love children and enjoy being someone they can feel safe, comfortable, and happy around.

I’m also a mom to a little girl who will be turning 3, so I have firsthand experience with the everyday joys, responsibilities, routines, and challenges that come with caring for a young child. Being a mom has taught me even more patience, compassion, responsibility, and the importance of creating a fun and nurturing environment.

I would love the opportunity to bring that same care and love to another family. I’m dependable, patient, kind-hearted, and genuinely enjoy keeping children engaged, entertained, and cared for. I’d be happy to become someone your family can trust and feel comfortable having in your home.

Full-Time Child Care Provider Available in Rapid City, SD: Anlly O.

Hi there! I am a cheerful, patient, and caring 28-year-old. Having grown up surrounded by a large family of younger cousins, nieces, and nephews, I’ve spent my whole life helping care for children. This has given me a very natural, loving connection with kids of all ages.
For me, childcare goes far beyond basic supervision—it’s about creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children feel happy and supported. I love organizing creative activities, arts and crafts, outdoor play, and helping out with daily routines with a positive and empathetic attitude.
If you are looking for someone trustworthy, detail-oriented, and genuinely dedicated to treating your children with the same care I give my own family, I would love to connect with you!
Vanessa B. - Seeking Work in Rapid City

Babysitter Available in Rapid City, SD: Vanessa B.

My name is Vanessa, and I believe that every child deserves to feel seen, safe, and celebrated — especially those who navigate the world a little differently. I've been working as a respite care provider for military families for a little less than a year, and in that role I've supported a child with Autism and Down syndrome. But my deepest teacher has been my eight-year-old brother, who has level 3 severe autism. Growing up alongside him has shaped not just how I care for children, but who I am as a person. I am certified in First Aid, CPR, and AED. I also have certification for Safe Sleep Practices, and Medication Administration in Child Care. I know that caring for a child with special needs takes patience, flexibility, and a willingness to learn every single day. It also takes a heart that sees the child first. That's the approach I bring with me, shaped by years of loving my brother and strengthened by the professional experience I've gained since.
