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!

I am a second-year college student studying criminal justice with a love for babysitting. With my 3 years of babysitting experience, I have learned how to properly communicate, engage, and create a fun, yet safe, environment for children 0-14. During my summers, I work at a summer program for children ages 4-15 and have had various trainings every year. Throughout these trainings, I have taken courses on adaptations for kids with special needs, how to control a situation, lesson planning, and structured play, and more. I'm skilled in cooking, staying adaptable in fast-paced environments, and have a creative mind. Helping with homework, planning crafts, and managing routines are also things I take into account when working with kids. With my extensive training, I believe I can be a great asset and help an amazing family in Lawrence, Kansas.

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.
