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.

I have always loved working with kids, I have many young cousins, so there have been many children around for as long as I can remember! I have my own car, and recently graduated high school as a valedictorian. During high school I was given an opportunity to be in a kindergarten classroom, where I learned just how much I love working with young children. I can cook and clean as needed, and have a pretty flexible schedule!

My favorites are the itty bitty newborns to preschool age! They bring me so much joy!! I am CPR/AED Certified and will do my best to emulate whatever you do to ensure things are as seamless as possible for everyone! I love teaching, nurturing and seeing their little body, heart and mind’s develop! I’m ideally looking for two ten hour days per week. Prefer to stay in or around the Olathe area. Also available for date nights and such. Extremely flexible and reliable! Excellent references available upon request!

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.

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!
