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!

My name is Kaitlyn Phee, and I am the Lead Twos Teacher at Mother's Day Out Preschool in Columbia, Missouri. I am currently studying Early Childhood Education online at Grand Canyon University to further my career as a toddler teacher. While earning my degree, I am working full time running my own classroom teaching two year olds basic vocabulary, numbers, concepts, and skills in a play-based but academically motivated learning environment. I previously also led the Junior Preschool class at Mother's Day Out, and before that I co-taught in the Twos room and Threes room at Kids Unlimited Daycare and Preschool in Jefferson City. Teaching and working with kids has been my passion as long as I can remember. In high school, I worked as a volleyball coach at HEAT Volleyball Club in Wisconsin, coaching the VolleySeeds program that worked with kids aged 4-9, as well as assistant coaching the 15s and 12s teams. I've also been babysitting since I was 15 years old. While I primarily work with toddlers at the preschool, I have experience babysitting and taking care of kids of all ages ranging from infant to thirteen. I am also certified in basic first aid and CPR. Outside of working with kids, my hobbies include outdoor activities like hiking and biking, cooking, reading, and sports. I'd love the opportunity to get to know you and your family and would be excited to work with you!
