I have lots of experience with kids of all ages ranging from infants to teens coming from a family with lots of cousins and someone with 3 brothers! I am a very clean person, am willing to do house keeping and driving to activities! the last couple family's I have watched were two boys ages 8 and 10 and two twin newborn babies. Will give references among requests.

I started babysitting when I was about 12 years old, and since then, I have babysat for many different families. Some for just one night, and others I have grown really close with and I have been taking care of their kids for five years. I am very independent, and I love new adventures. The summer after I graduated high school, I worked with kids at an orphanage in Ukraine, and I enjoyed every minute of it. I speak Spanish and work full time for a local non-profit. Would love to spend more time with kids before my husband and I have our own!

I am looking for side babysitting to accompany my full time nanny position. I have 12 years of childcare experience beyond babysitting. I am first aid/CPR certified and have a 4 year degree in Psychology with an emphasis in Psychology of Education and Learning. I have been a nanny for the last 6. 5 years, spending the first 4. 5 with one family caring for their son from 4 months-4. 5 years. My last family I cared for was a 2-year-old and newborn through 6-month-old. Currently I am working with a 3-year-old and 11-month-old (who I started caring for at 2 weeks old). I also have a 2-year-old who accompanies me at my current position. I pride myself on my patience and am constantly looking for ways to keep little minds growing and learning. I would be happy to provide a resume and letters of recommendation.

Hello, I am Hailey. I am a 17 years old, and truly enjoy spending time with kids! I have a very flexible schedule and am always willing to negotiate prices/hourly pay.

I hope you see you soon :)

I am able to start immediately. I have a 2-year-old daughter who has been joining me since she was 3 months old, she adores other children and loves having playmates. I have several years experience as a professional nanny and I have worked with all ages infants up to teenagers.

I enjoy cooking and strive to serve healthy balanced meals and avoid over processed foods. I believe in limited screen time. I love getting outside as much as possible! I have a large reliable vehicle and do not mind drop offs and pick ups or going on fun outings. I'm more than willing to help out with housekeeping and laundry. I'm able to do full or part time weekdays between 7:30am-6 p.m. the hours can be somewhat flexible but I'm unable to do weekends.

I am a Preschool Teacher at Sunshine Station Childcare. I love children and worked with them for 20 years. I can handle more then one child and love to do activities with children or read books. Kids are like sponges! It's great to see and watch them grow. I am a mom of two children, who are 17 and 18. I am very reliable and trustworthy!

This summer, New Horizon Academy can provide your child a safe environment to learn, play, and explore during those otherwise long summer days. Camp Discovery programs are led by teachers trained in safety, early education, compassion, and fun. Children are able to construct their own knowledge through themed fun learning experiences that include fieldtrips, community projects, sports and recreation, cooking and baking, arts and crafts, drama, gardening, guest speakers, science experiments, water play, and much, much, more. With these and other hands-on activities, children will enjoy the summer while building on what they learned throughout the year.

Join us for these amazing summer adventures!

Not all childcare centers are created equally. As a family-owned business, Dawn of Discovery offers a bright, clean, and comfortable environment with the benefits of a structured educational setting. From our classrooms to our outdoor play area, we strive to instill independence and self-confidence in your child. While childcare can be hard work, getting to know local families and bonding with their children is definitely worth it.

Few things in life are more breathtaking than a sunrise. As brilliant colors streak across the sky and light up the planet, they prepare the world for a new day filled with potential.

In the same way, few things are more special to a parent than their child's first laugh, first words, and first steps. As a childcare center, we are privileged to take care of your child as they discover themselves and the exciting world around them.

At Dawn of Discovery, our goal is to promote emotional, intellectual, social, and physical development in each child in a safe and nurturing manner. From six weeks to five years old, our infant, toddler and preschool curriculum is designed to offer your child a wonderful experience and ensure they are developing to their full potential.

We are a preschool and childcare facility. The childcare is open 6:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. We offer part time and full time childcare.

We provide preschool for children ages 3, 4 & 5 years old. We offer 2, 3 and 4 day preschool classes.
