Near Northside Babysitters

Hello parents! I am a Butler University alumni who was involved in College Mentors for Kids, Alpha Phi, and the Butler club swim team. I am now working (9am-5pm) at Thrive Orthopedics in Carmel. I love to be around kids - I have nannied 3 kids for 3 summers and 1 year old twins for a summer. I’m an animal lover and have had dogs and cats, and I am comfortable taking care of pets. If you need me to drive, I have a car and I am a safe and cautious driver. I am also usually flexible about start and end times if anything comes up. PS I started going by my first name, Isabelle/Izzy after high school, which is why some of my Bambino recommendations say “Maggie”.

Hello, my name is Calenia or CeCe Dumas! I am currently a social services navigator for families in the community. I am from Indianapolis, Indiana where I was raised in a household with five other children, three of them being younger. I have been caring for children a majority of my life, starting with my younger siblings. I am an active babysitter in my community and have close relationships with all of the families whose children I’ve cared for. I also volunteer in the nursery and other children’s classes at my church. I greatly enjoy not only caring for children but also getting to know them as well as developing a trusting and fun relationship!

Hi my name is Melissa! I’m currently a Graduate Student at Indiana University Indianapolis. I’ve been babysitting for quite some time now and I love it! I’m very flexible and try to bring as much joy to your kids! Children just bring happiness and laughter and I can’t wait to have many more to babysit:)

I am a hard worker and very precise with any work I do. I am patient and a very good listener. I always strive for success and I never give up on a task no matter how hard it is. I adore spending time with the kiddos especially babies! I have 11 siblings not including myself. 2 older than me and 9 younger. I’ve raised and cared for them all since birth and I love each and every one of them dearly. I’m excellent with children, and aside from baby sitting within my family, I have years of community babysitting experience. I hope to be your kiddos short or long-term caregiver! See you soon:) -- ~Zarkayla Mathews

Nothing gets me more excited than being able to spend time with kids, they’re just so fun! Kids of all ages have such great quirks to them and it’s such a unique experience to be able to help and watch them grow. I want to be a role model, friend, and someone children and parents can count on.
