Hi! My name is Angela and a little about me is that I am currently a freshman undergraduate student at UNO going into Occupational Therapy for pediatrics with a major in Public Relations!I love to be active and be busy wether it’s hanging out with friends, traveling, working or volunteering, doing some yoga or going on a run to of course hanging out and spending time with my family. A fun fact about me is that I am also bilingual and can speak Spanish and I am learning sign language.A little bit about my background with caregiving is I’ve working in a childcare facility for 3 years with experience with ages 4 months to 12 years although I would say I have the most experience with toddlers to preschool/kindergarten (my favorite ages) and I have been babysitting consistently for two years and also teach kindergartners Sunday school every other Sunday as well. Overall I would absolutely love to look after your littles and make them feel loved, comfortable and safe while with their sitter, I look forward to it!!

I am a dedicated childcare professional with over seven years of experience in diverse settings, including schools, daycares, in-home, and clinics. I have worked with children ranging from eight weeks to 15 years old and have over a year of experience supporting children with autism and other intellectual disabilities. I hold certifications in CPR, first aid, and safety care. I took classes to become a certified Registered Behavior Technician (RBT). Additionally, I have an Associate's degree in education. I absolutely love working with kids, especially when it involves fun crafts, activities, and outdoor adventures. Being active in my own life, I enjoy bringing energy and creativity to everyday. The most rewarding part of my job is seeing the positive impact I have on each child, making the work both meaningful and fulfilling. If your family has pets I have experience with dog sitting and training as well. I have pets of my own that join me on daily hiking adventures, walks, and training.

Hi there! I'm Hailey, a 26-year-old living in Blackstone, Omaha. I’ve worked with infants, teens and every age in between, including children who have physical and developmental disabilities. I’m fully vaccinated and CPR, First Aid, AED and MANDT certified. I enjoy the finer things in life — playing and snack time! My specialities include outdoor adventures, coloring, Mario Kart, dolls, board games and more. I also love recreational outings! I’m not the type of babysitter who will throw on a movie and play on my phone. I’m currently seeking occasional babysitting jobs because I have the time and love kids! I work full time as an art instructor for adults with developmental disabilities. Additionally, I’m a poetry slam coach for high school students. In the summer, my Saturdays are spent swinging in the trees as a zipline instructor. My childcare experience includes working at two daycares, as a kindergarten para, as a swimming lesson instructor and as a camp counselor. When I'm not working you can usually find me at church, on a hike, writing slam poetry or standup comedy, or spending time with my friends. As a creative, high energy individual, I'll be able to keep up with whatever your children are up to each day.

I have been babysitting for about 8 years now. I have worked at a childcare center on base when I lived in California and also did a class in which I actively worked with the kids at the childcare center at my college and made lesson plans and observed children and their developmental skills. I have known that I wanted to work with kids for a long time, which is the reason I have pursued and will keep pursuing an education in childcare. :)

*Background check available to be sent upon request* Working with children and gaining their (and their parent's!) trust is a huge privilege. It's an honor to work with families and teach, lead, and inspire kids to become their best selves. I love developing relationships with children and watching as their personalities develop, and their resilience and confidence grow. I have been providing childcare since I was 14 years old and have been working as a full-time nanny since the beginning of the year for a sweet little girl. I have experience with infants, toddlers, and elementary aged children. I have also worked with children in a professional setting as a case manager and child advocate. In this role I worked with children to make sure their physical and emotional needs were being met, and I also promoted normalcy and play while the children were living at a shelter. I planned and led many weekly activities, events, and holiday celebrations for the children. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I have received gold standard training from the Center on Children, Family and the Law which focused on many topics such as child development and safe sleep. I am excited to work with families one on one and help them in feel confident and at peace about their childcare!

I have 9 nieces and nephews that I have watched religiously since they were born. I started watching them when I was 12 years old. I love being around kids and showing them the way through life. Since I was just watching kids for my family, I don't have any paid experience but that doesn't stop me from giving the best care. I am currently working as a CNA and going to nursing school, so I am CPR certified and have been in many emergent situations.

I am a very active and fun person and I definitely reflect that when working with kids. I am in graduate school at UNMC currently. I would consider myself a responsible and trustworthy person. I also have experience working with kids through being a soccer coach, nannying, and afterschool care. I have a pretty busy schedule with school but am willing to accommodate your needs as best as possible!
