Hello! My name is Sophie and I have been watching children for 7 years. I am 21 years old and a junior majoring in communications at KU. I have watched children of all ages, and love to connect with all of them! I sat for the same family for 6 years, nannying for them in the summers. It was a great privilege to watch them grow up, and becoming someone in their life who had an impact on them is why I love kids. I am CPR and First Aid certified, and have had experience with medical emergencies before while babysitting. I have sat at all times of the day and am very experienced with bed time (I love to read them stories!). I can cook and make snacks, clean, and take care of pets. I have a car and experience with car seats and driving children. I love to be outdoors and get the kids active and outside. I am also an artist and fostering their creativity is my favorite thing to do! I know many arts and crafts and am able to teach drawing and painting skills. Once classes are over for the semester, I am available M-F for all-day care during the summer.

I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and helping them feel safe, supported, and happy. I have experience caring for children of different ages, helping with daily routines like playtime, meals, and bedtime, and working with children who have different needs, which has helped me become patient, flexible, and attentive. I am responsible, dependable, and a strong communicator, and I focus on creating a positive and safe environment for every child. I am also studying occupational therapy, which has given me a solid understanding of child development, behavior, and supportive care strategies.

As the oldest child of 5 (including my twin!), I have experience with all age groups. I also have about a year’s professional experience with all age groups as well! I’m certified in CPR and AED use for infants, children, and adults. I grew up with three cats, I currently have two dogs, and my brother has had several fish I’ve helped with. I’m most familiar with cats and dogs, and I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes. I was a leader in my high school choirs and theatre, and I’m currently attending the University of Kansas for a BFA in Theatre Design! Music and theatre hold very special places in my heart, and I’m very passionate about both fields.

My name is Ajuné, I'm 23, and I'm a student at Cornell. I'm majoring in Psychology in order to become a clinical child psychologist. I have a lot of experience as a babysitter, nanny, and preschool assistant teacher. I've always been great with younger children and have felt like they gravitate towards me. Their sweet, innocent energy makes me feel at peace. I had my first recurrent, independent babysitting gig at about 11 with a 2-year-old boy, and my first job with a 1-year-old girl a year later, both of which went very well. Since then, I've babysat multiple other little girls and boys of various ages (2 months+), needs (including special needs), and personalities. I have experience sitting up to 3 children at a time but have supervised up to 12 as an assistant preschool teacher. I look forward to serving your family!

I'm originally from western South Dakota and I moved to Lawrence to study for my bachelor's in biochemistry. I have been a babysitter for over a decade now and a nanny for the past five years. I have worked with a variety of families and ages ranging from two months to sixteen years. I'm very high-energy and am an avid crafter. I enjoy making projects and learning new things as well as teaching others new skills. I am both CPR and first aid certified, additionally I received my nursing assistant certification as well so I can handle a bit more on the medical side too. Please reach out if you would like anymore information or would like to set up a call!

Hi! I am currently a sophomore at the University of Kansas, studying Early Childhood Unified, and my goal is to become a preschool teacher! For the past two years I have worked at an early learning center, and before that I was a gymnastics instructor at a Little Gym. Since I am in school, I am looking for a part time position, preferably on weekday afternoons. I can pick up/drop off at school, provide transportation to extra curricular activities, cook, clean, help with homework, and hang out with the kiddos!
