Madeline W., Babysitter in Columbia, MO 65203 with 10 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Maddie, and I have over 10 years of experience working as a nanny. I have worked for the same wonderful family for over 3 years now, caring for two children. During that time I helped with daily routines, learning activities, outdoor play, and creating a safe, nurturing environment where the kids felt supported and encouraged to grow. Due to the kids starting school full time I am needing to find new employment. I have open availability, and I would love to meet your family! Please message me with any questions you may have

Abbie W., Babysitter in Columbia, MO 65203 with 4 years of paid experience

Hi! I’m Abbie, a pre-nursing student at the University of Missouri with over 4 years of paid babysitting experience. I started babysitting in high school, including several years as an after-school sitter for the same family. I’ve also worked at a sleep-away camp for the past two summers, caring for children ages 7–13, where I built strong skills in behavior management and helping kids calm down when upset. I love babysitting because I enjoy seeing children grow and gain confidence. I’m lifeguard and CPR certified, dependable, and safety-focused. I’d love to support your family with reliable, caring childcare!
