Kordisha R., Babysitter in Oakland, KY 42159 with 12 years of paid experience

I have a genuine love for caring for children and creating a safe, nurturing environment where they can grow and feel secure. Being a sitter allows me to support families while building meaningful connections with children as they learn, explore, and develop new skills. I truly enjoy engaging with little ones through age-appropriate play, routines, and learning activities that support their emotional and developmental needs. I have hands-on experience caring for toddlers and young children, including ages 1–5, and I’m comfortable caring for multiple children at once. My experience includes following daily routines, preparing meals and snacks, supporting nap times, and providing attentive supervision in a home setting. I understand how important consistency and communication are, and I always strive to make both children and parents feel at ease.

Billie R., Babysitter in Oakland, KY 42159 with 5 years of paid experience

Hi! I am an eighteen year old High School student, looking for ways to help out within my community! I started professionally Baby-sitting when I was 13, but had years of experience before hand. I am the 2nd eldest of 7 children, 3 of which are disabled. My youngest brother was born with Spina Bifida, and both of my younger twin sisters have ADHD and Autism. I worked for years helping family, friends, and strangers be able to live their lives as they need with the comfort of knowing their children are safe and enjoying their time at home! I'm an extremely creative person and I adore being able to create new fun games and help with school projects. Because I come from such a complex family, I work great under stressful circumstances and am a quick decision maker. I can't wait to help your little ones grow, learn, and thrive!

Sidney N., Babysitter in Oakland, KY 42159 with 2 years of paid experience

I have 2 years experience of childcare but I have helped with kids in my family and for friends! I also have a 7 year old step daughter! I have experience with kids of all ages. I am all about having fun while also helping kids learn. I love to do extra things like take kids to the park or play outside so they can enjoy the fresh air. I am currently a stay at home mom. I am available all hours of the day & prefer to babysit in my home as i do have to pick my daughter up from school some days or would have to get her off the bus. Feel free to contact me for references or to set up a call/meeting!

Anyia P., Babysitter in Oakland, KY 42159 with 2 years of paid experience

Hi, I’m Nyia! I’m a responsible and compassionate college student with a genuine love for working with children. Growing up with six siblings gave me hands‑on experience caring for kids of all ages, teaching me patience, adaptability, and the importance of creating a safe, nurturing environment. In addition, I’ve worked as a daycare teacher, which strengthened my ability to manage routines, support learning, and engage children in creative activities. Communication is one of my strengths — I value being clear and thoughtful with parents so they feel confident and at ease. My goal is to brighten each child’s day while giving parents peace of mind knowing their little ones are in good hands.

Hi! I’m a recent graduate from UK and will be starting my masters program at WKU in the fall. I absolutely love kids and cannot wait until I get to have my own! I've been watching children since I turned 15 and have babysat for many coworkers, family friends, and previous teachers. I've been a 4H camp counselor for many years in the past and have had such a blast! As of right now, I only have one class on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday from 2-4:45, so I should have plenty of free time to help out if needed!
