I am CPR & First Aid certified and also have my own and reliable transportation. I am available Monday-Friday during the summer months and very flexible on times & responsibilities. If you are interested in talking further please feel free to message me, thank you! 😊

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.

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!

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.

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.
