Liz S., Babysitter in Lawrence, KS 66049 with 4 years of paid experience

I love working with kids (and animals)! I am the oldest sister of 5, so I have a lot of built in experience with kids! When my cousin was sick, I watched both of her baby boys full time and absolutely loved it. I have experience in watching infants, making lunch, making bottles, cleaning, etc. I have always been passionate about taking care of little ones.

- I have years of experience (since I was 10/11) taking care of children of all ages and animals (dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, etc) - I have a car, and am comfortable driving wherever I am needed, whether it is for errands or taking kids somewhere. - I can cook and help with homework! I’m comfortable with making bottles (breast milk, formula, or whole milk) and with changing diapers and dealing with blowouts/changing clothes. - I worked at a daycare in Lenexa for almost a year, primarily in the Infant room (ages 4 months to a year) but also helped out in the Toddler rooms (1 year- 2 1/2 years) as well as with ages 3 years and up. - I’m currently a nanny to a 15 month old and have been watching her since she was 6 months old. - I am CPR and First Aid certified. - I am currently studying Psychology at the University of Kansas and am primarily located in Lawrence. My schedule and availability changes each semester.

Abbey is wonderful with my 4 year old son. Communication is always the best and she is flexible with times and even location. I’ve have had her watch my son weekly since the first time she was hired. Will continue working with her!

I am a student at KU working on my degree in Applied Behavioral Science with a concentration in child life. The past two summers, I have worked at a special education kids' camp. Due to that job, I am CPR and First aid certified, as well as experienced with infants through adults. I love being around all ages and meeting any need. I am flexible and a great communicator. I enjoy creating a fun and supportive environment and growing as a person through something I am passionate about, such as caring for others! Additionally, I enjoy helping around the house, running errands, meal prepping, and doing anything to make your lives easier!

Ajune R., Babysitter in Lawrence, KS 66049 with 12 years of paid experience

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!

Ashura P., Babysitter in Lawrence, KS 66049 with 9 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Ashura (“ash-rah”). I graduated from John Carroll University with a degree in Exercise Science in May of 2019. During my time at John Carroll, I was a member of the track and field team, a mentor, and a part of the Scholars service program as well. After graduating from college, I moved to California to pursue my doctorate in physical therapy at the University of Southern California. Life, however, had other plans and I now live in Kansas as I work towards my masters in Health, Sport Management and Exercise Science at KU. When it comes to my childcare experience, I have been caring for children for what seems like an eternity. I am the oldest of 3 girls, so I have helped care for my sisters since birth. I babysat for numerous families while I lived in Ohio. I’ve also done lots of work with children from volunteering, to tutoring, to working at a day camp. In California, I was the primary caretaker for several families with children ranging from newborns to about 6 years old. I have my basic life support certification, so I am CPR and First Aid certified. I have a car and a clean driving record should I need to transport your child(ren). I have experience caring for children of all ages and am comfortable doing so. Overall, I am trustworthy, compassionate and a responsible caregiver who looks forward to meeting you and your family!

Marissa D., Babysitter in Lawrence, KS 66049 with 5 years of paid experience

Hello:) My name is Marissa and I’m in search of a part-time nannying position to help me with aviation school. I’m currently working part-time as a Lead Pre School Teacher and have had 5+ years of experience with kids aged 4 months old to 12 years old. I enjoy cleaning and am more than willing to do housework if needed. (Laundry, dishes, meal prepping, vacuum, mopping, just general tidying up.) I also have my own SUV that can fit anywhere from 5-7 and my license. I love using play based learning to make education fun for kiddos. I love discovering new ways to teach and to make things fun!! I love music, art, the outdoors, sensory play, and more. Due to me working part-time as a teacher, I’m only available Mondays & Wednesdays (any times) and Thursdays until 1:00 PM. ONE MORE THING: I slightly allergic to cats, but am usually okay if there aren’t more than 2 in the household. Otherwise, I get really stuffy and can’t breathe :( If you have any questions, feel free to reach out :)

Calissa L., Babysitter in Lawrence, KS 66049 with 4 years of paid experience

Hi! I’m a PhD student in Clinical Child Psychology with a master’s degree in psychology and extensive experience working with children and families. I’m also a licensed foster mom, so I am CPR and First Aid certified and have spent years supporting children through behavioral, sleep, and toileting challenges in both clinical and caregiving settings. Although it’s been a few years since I regularly babysat, I’m nearing the end of my PhD and have more flexibility in my schedule again. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and creating a safe, supportive, and fun environment for them. I bring a calm, patient approach and a strong understanding of child development. I’d love to support your family however I can!
