My name is Jacqueline. To start off with a little bit about my experience, I am currently a Postpartum Doula for a set of preemie triplets, totaling over 10 years of Doula experience with multiple births. I have worked in home day cares and childcare centers, as well as babysitting and nannying for ages newborn to 12 years old. I have raised 4 children and will be a new grandma in December! I absolutely adore kids and always make it a point to treat them how I want my children & grandchildren to be treated! I truly believe that my passion is working with children and think it's important to not only care for them, but to teach them through creative activities as well. I have 3 animals of my own, so I’m definitely a huge animal lover! A few general activities I enjoy doing with children are singing, dancing, playing instruments, reading, painting/crafting, learning colors/ABCs, fun outings, etc.

Aurorah R.
- 4 years paid experience

Hello there! I’ve cared for and watched over infants and children for most of my 21 years. From family, to the church nursery, summer jobs, and friends of family. I adore children and for the most part children seem to like me. There’s never been a child that didn’t want to be held or played with by me. I know what it takes to keep a child entertained and happy, to engage them and make every day a little bit of an adventure. I’m a Christian. A creative/artistic person who loves to read, sketch, write, play the piano, garden, and ride my horse. I am certified in CPR and first aid for adults, children, and infants. And have had several background checks done on me in order to work in my church’s nursery and for the City of Olathe.

Ashura P.
- 9 years 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!

Ajune R.

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!
