Hello! I am a third year physical therapy student at KUMC. I’m on my full time unpaid clinical rotations and am in need of some extra cash. I worked at a Bright Horizons in Iowa for 2.5 years as a toddler teacher. I typically floated between the infant, preschool, and kindergarten prep rooms as well. I also have experience as a summer camp counselor and fitness center childcare provider that helped me connect with older children. I currently nanny a family of four, ages 2.5, 9, 12, and 13 years, and have been doing so for two years. Unfortunately with them being in KC and me in Lawrence right now, I have less availability for them, hence why I am on here!

Hi! My name is Leah Lukert, and I’m a 19-year-old sophomore at the University of Kansas, majoring in Digital Marketing/advertising in the School of Journalism. Outside of classes, I stay busy as an active member of my sorority and love being involved on campus. For the upcoming spring semester, I’m looking for an afternoon or evening babysitting position. I’ve been working with children for over eight years, and it’s something I genuinely enjoy. It allows me to combine my passion for childcare with my love for connecting with others. I’m CPR and First Aid certified through my experience as a lifeguard and recreational center leader, so safety is always my top priority. I bring the same energy, reliability, and sense of responsibility into every home I work in. Whether it’s helping with after-school routines, organizing fun activities, or simply spending quality time together, I always aim to create a safe, positive, and enjoyable environment for the kids I care for.

Hi there! My name is Ajuné, I'm 21, and I currently attend Cornell University with an intended major in Psychology. I aspire to become a child therapist. I've always been great with younger children and have always felt like they gravitate towards me for some reason. Their sweet, innocent energy melts my heart. I had my first recurrent, independent babysitting gig at about 11 with a 2-year-old boy, and my first gig with a 1-year-old girl a year later, both of which went very well. Since then, I've babysat a number of different ages (from 2 months), siblings (up to 3), and personalities, as well as children with special needs. I would be glad to entertain your child, provide homework help, make sure things stay tidy (or get tidied up before I leave), and prepare easy, light meals. I'd also be glad to help with pets; I love animals! Full disclosure, I do not drive and generally use the bus and/or rideshare for transportation. I look forward to connecting with you!

Hi!! I am currently a sophomore in college and have 6 years of babysitting experience. Being around kids is something I enjoy, and I love to get creative with activities and ways to keep kids entertained. I have experience with kiddos from the ages of less than a year old to middle school age, and I have two dogs back home, so pets are totally comfortable for me to be around! I have first aid training and am comfortable in difficult situations should they arise. I also have my own car and am comfortable handling light housekeeping, meal prepping, homework help, diaper changes, and putting kids to sleep. I am very patient, energetic, and adaptable if kids have specific needs that need to be met! Feel free to reach out with any questions or for references!
