Hi! I’m 30 years old, and caring for children has been part of my everyday life since I was young. I started helping my mom with babysitting around age 10, and that same year I helped care for my nephew from the day he was born. Being so involved with children early on taught me patience, responsibility, and a deep appreciation for loving, consistent care.
Over the years, I’ve cared for babies, toddlers, and school-age kids in both home and childcare settings. I enjoy creating calm routines, encouraging learning through play, and making sure each child feels safe, comfortable, and valued. I’m happy to help with meals, daily care, playtime, and gentle guidance with behavior.
I’m CPR and First Aid certified, dependable, and easy to communicate with. I truly enjoy partnering with families and would love to be someone you can trust and feel comfortable welcoming into your home—someone who will care for your children as if they were my own.
I'm looking for Casual/temporary, Part-time, Full-time employment.
I can travel a few suburbs/towns away from Bryant for work.

I am currently a senior at Upper Dublin High School and plan to major in Early Childhood Education because I am passionate about working with children and creating a positive learning environment. I have experience working with kids through summer camps, babysitting, and childcare settings, where I learned how to supervise children, keep them safe, and help them stay engaged in activities. I have worked as a camp counselor caring for groups of young children and helping with daily routines, participation, and behavior management. I have also completed childcare health and safety training focused on supervision, emergency preparedness, safe environments, and child development. Through these experiences, I have developed strong communication, leadership, patience, and problem-solving skills that help me connect well with both children and families.
Heyy Parents, my name is Khadijatou Baragi and I am 20 years old. I started my babysitting journey in 2021, caring for kids of all ages both in the Bronx and in The Gambia. Over the years, I’ve loved creating a safe, fun, and supportive space where children can learn and grow. From helping with homework and planning creative activities to making meals and keeping up with daily routines, I enjoy being there to make life a little easier for families. This experience has taught me so much about patience, communication, and the joy of seeing kids thrive.

Sign language
Hello! My name is Natalie Laughman and I am a junior at The Ohio State University, studying psychology and American Sign Language. I was a nanny for two summers full time caring for three children aged 3, 5, and 6. Two of the three were on the spectrum so I am familiar with neurodivergent families. I am close to being fluent at sign language and I hope to be an interpreter for deaf children post grad. I play acoustic guitar and sing in my free time, I write poetry, and I helped raise my younger sister. I am very nurturing and natural with kids and I would love the chance to meet your beautiful families! Thank you so much for your time and consideration! -Natalie Laughman
