Tara was wonderful, and our kiddo asked when she could come back. Definitely child-recommended. We had no worries, and will definitely be contacting her first for our next date night.

1I AM AN EXTENSIVELY, EXPERIENCED, REPUTABLE SITTEE FOR CHILDREN FROM INFANCY THROUGH TEEN YEARS WITH ALL LEVELS OF DEVELOPMENTAL MILESTONES. I HOLD A BACHELOR'S IN PSYCHOLOGY WITH A SPECIALTY IN EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION. I AS WELL HAVE DIVERSIFIED EXPERIENCE CARING FOR AND WORKING WITH CHILDREN THAT ARE PHYSICALLY, DEVELOPMENTALLY AND PSYCHOLOGICALLY CHALLENGED. MY PASSION LIES IN NURTURING & MENTORING CHILDREN & HAVING BEEN BLESSED TO HAVE BEEN AFFORDED REWARDING OPPORTUNI- TIES TO WORK HANDS-ON WITH THE VARIABLE DYNAMICS OF THE FAMILIES I HAVE SERVED. THIS HAS ENABLED ME TO BETTER UTILIZE & APPLY MY EDUCATIONAL SKILLS & THOROUGHLY GAIN A DEDICATED, MORE PERSON-CENTERED EXPERIENCE & UNDERSTANDING OF THE APPLIED PRINCIPLES THAT PROMOTE A CHILD'S HEALTHY SENSE OF COGNITIVE & PSYCHOSOCIAL DEVELOPMENT. I ENJOY STAYING ACTIVE & ENCOURAGING POSITIVE, CREATIVE ACTIVITIES THAT ARE FUNDAMENT- ALLY SAFE & AS WELL PROVIDE REWARDING & AGE APPROPRIATE EXPERIENCES. I UNDERSTAND THE SIGNIFICANCE IN MAINTAINIING OPEN, COLLABORATIVE RAPPORT IN DEVELOPING A STRONG PARTNE- SHIP WITH PARENTS. I HAVE FOUND THAT JUST AS IMPORTANT, IS THE ABILITY TO REMAIN FEASIBLY FLEXIBLE & ADAPTABLE TO DIFFERENT PARENTING TECNIQUES AS WELL AS ROUTINE/SCHEDULE CHANGES. I ACKNOWLEDGE THAT SELF AWARENESS IN SAFETY CONSCIOUSNESS & THE ABILITY TO REMAIN NURTURING & COMPASION- ATE, BUT ALSO MAINTAIN THE ABILITY TO ENFORCE DISCIPLINE IS NECESSARY. I PRIDE MYSELF ON LIVING A HEALTHY, CHRISTIAN LIFESTYLE WHILE BALANCING A STABLE MORAL & WORK ETHIC. I HAVE THE AUTONOMY TO COMMIT TO BOTH SHORT AS WELL AS LONG-TERM POSITIONS & CAN PROVIDE A REPUTABLE RESUMÉ AS WELL AS CHARACTER REFERENCES UPON REQUEST. NOTE: I HAVE ALSO SERVED AS A LEGAL FAMILY/CHILD ADVOCATE IN OVERSIGHT OF PARENTAL VISITATION RIGHTS & CHILD'S SAFETY FOR THE COURTS WHILE IN LITIGATION IN REGARDS TO CHILD CUSTODY MATTERS. I LOOK FORWARD TO SPEAKING WITH YOU IN FURTHER DETAIL AND MAY BE CONTACTED ON MY CELL @ YOUR CONVENIENCE. RESPECTFULLY, TAMARA

I am a sophomore at UKY, majoring in kinesiology. I want to be a pediatric physical therapist so I love working with kids and getting to see them grow! I am also a mentor with the Big Brothers and Sisters of the Bluegrass and camp counselor during the summer at the YMCA. I have ample experience being and professional and personal environments with children with special needs! I am also CPR/First Aid certified and I have undergone numerous training in regards to child safety.

Leanna C., Babysitter in Nicholasville, KY 40356 with 4 years of paid experience

I am a full-time Caregiver for a Senior Living Facility and I have been working with seniors now for nearly a year. Prior to this, I was a Youth Care Associate for a children’s behavioral facility for nearly a year. This is my “professional” experience. However, I am also a mother to 5 wonderful children. Humbly speaking, my children are well-behaved, walk with hearts of love, and are for the most part-happy and thriving. Prior to our family falling apart, I was a stay at home mother for the better part of 15 years. As scary as it was for me having our lives just crumble right in front of me, everything now on my shoulders, no credit, some work experience but massive gaps in employment history, I had nothing and all efforts seemed hopeless. Though the wait was so intense, I trusted my Heavenly Father and He led me right to my “professional” passion, which is why I work where I do now. I am fulfilled in the work I do. I am a living testimony that you can love your work and not just “have a job”. Bottom line, I walk simply knowing I never need a reason to love or care for anyone, child or adult. I want to add that in the 15 years I was blessed to be a stay at home mother, I made extra money babysitting other families children off and on and therefore have plenty of babysitting experience as well. I am also CPR and FIRST AID certified. I believe cleanliness is next to Godliness. I’m not walking out of your home without making something better. I am very well organized and detail-oriented. I’ve not been diagnosed OCD, but I’ve personally considered the possibility.
