I’m 29 years old and I have 15 years experience babysitting and working with children. I’m was a lead teacher at a daycare center until I had my baby girl who is now almost two in December. I wanted a more flexible schedule to stay home with her as much as possible. Sometimes she does come with me but I can also leave her with family. I can do meal prep, change diapers, potty train and bedtime/naptime routine. I love being outside and taking “field trips” with the kids I babysit for. I have plenty of references as well.

Samantha is fantastic! I was so nervous to have anyone babysit my son, but she came over with confidence and calm. She is experienced, and it shows. My son is 8 months, and she kept right to his schedule perfectly. I setup an on-going weekly arrangement immediately, and I recommend her!

I love working with kids! I have worked at an elementary school (as a substitute teacher and daycare counselor), as well as at Autism Behavioral Spectrum, and in my free time, I tutor. I have a lot of experience working with children, and genuinely love being around them and learning from them. I studied psychology and anatomy at Maryville University, and I am now pursuing my doctorate in health/pediatric psychology at KU. I’m CPR certified, and I passed my EMT course as well. I’ve grown up babysitting my four younger siblings as well as working for other families in St. Louis. I really enjoy spending time with children, and I hope someday I’ll get the opportunity to meet yours.

Hello! If you are looking for a dependable, organized, and nurturing House Manager/Family Assistant, I’d love to be considered for the role. I have over 8 years of experience working with children ages 0–12 in both nanny and babysitting positions, along with hands-on experience helping families maintain a smooth, well-run household. I am BLS (Basic Life Support) certified, and the health, safety, and well-being of the children in my care will always be my top priority. In addition to providing attentive and engaging childcare when needed, I genuinely enjoy helping create a calm, organized, and supportive home environment for busy families. I’m comfortable assisting with household tasks such as tidying and organizing common areas, children’s laundry, meal prep, dishes, running errands, keeping schedules on track, and helping manage the day-to-day flow of the home so parents can come back to a peaceful and functional space. When caring for children, I focus on creating a positive and enriching environment through age-appropriate activities like outdoor play, walks, park visits, arts and crafts, board games, imaginative play, and helping encourage healthy routines. I’m also highly experienced in infant care, including feeding, swaddling, soothing, diapering, helping with gas and fussiness, and recognizing different cries and needs. My goal is always to provide loving, attentive care while supporting the overall needs of the household. One important note: I would need to bring my infant daughter with me during working hours. She was born in March and is still in the young infant stage, so she spends much of her time being worn, resting, or feeding. I’m hoping to find a family who is open to this arrangement and values a warm, family-oriented environment. I would love the opportunity to speak further about how I can support your family and help your home run more smoothly. Warmly,Faith Ehrsam

My name is Jacqueline. To start off with a little bit about my experience, I am currently a Postpartum Doula for a set of preemie triplets, totaling over 10 years of Doula experience with multiple births. I have worked in home day cares and childcare centers, as well as babysitting and nannying for ages newborn to 12 years old. I have raised 4 children and will be a new grandma in December! I absolutely adore kids and always make it a point to treat them how I want my children & grandchildren to be treated! I truly believe that my passion is working with children and think it's important to not only care for them, but to teach them through creative activities as well. I have 3 animals of my own, so I’m definitely a huge animal lover! A few general activities I enjoy doing with children are singing, dancing, playing instruments, reading, painting/crafting, learning colors/ABCs, fun outings, etc.

Jacqui has excellent communication—whether it’s about her expectations as a sitter, upcoming shifts she has you down for, or if something pops up to interfere with a shift. Jacqui loves kids and allows them to be fully themselves. She also brings her vast experience to the table and helps the children to grow and learn and have fun. Jacqui is firm but flexible. She is confident in her skills. I appreciate her expertise and gentle manner with my daughter.
