Kelsea has been with us full-time for the last 3 years. She has always been caring and professional, firm but kind, helpful and instructive. Our boys have been incredibly lucky to have her guidance and love over the time she's been with us - we can definitely see some of her positive influence in them. Kelsea was always responsible and reliable, and I am sure that she will excel in any family. As a working parent, it's never an easy decision to leave your children in the care of someone else. Kelsea made this choice an easy one for us. She looked out for the best interests of our children, she kept their safety and health in mind, and she got them to eat vegetables I never dreamed they would eat :-) Our children have loved every minute with her. I could not recommend her highly enough!

Paris M., Babysitter in Petersburg, KY 41080 with 3 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Paris, and I’m currently a nursing student with a passion for caring for children. I also work at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital, where I’ve gained valuable experience in a pediatric healthcare environment and developed strong communication, patience, and caregiving skills. I’ve been babysitting since high school and have experience caring for children of different ages. I genuinely love being a sitter because I enjoy building connections with kids, helping them feel safe and happy, and being someone they can trust. I love spending time with children and creating a safe, fun, and engaging environment where they can learn, play, and be themselves. I’m a big believer in keeping children active and making the most of each day. Whether it’s playing outside, doing crafts, visiting the zoo or aquarium, going to the park, or coming up with creative activities at home, I enjoy keeping kids entertained while encouraging their curiosity and development. As someone pursuing a career in nursing; safety, kindness, and reliability are my top priorities. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident that their children are in caring and capable hands. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and provide dependable, compassionate care for your little ones!

Avery J., Babysitter in Petersburg, KY 41080 with 2 years of paid experience

Why do you love being a sitter? I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy working with children and creating a fun, positive, and safe environment for them. I enjoy getting to know each child's personality, keeping them engaged in activities, and being someone parents can trust to provide attentive and dependable care. What experience do you have? I have several years of hands on childcare experience. I began babysitting my younger sister when I was 11 years old, and I also regularly spend time caring for my three younger cousins, who are 6 years old, 4 years old, and 3 months old. This has given me experience with a variety of ages, including infants and young children. Additionally, I worked as a lifeguard for three years, where I developed strong safety, communication, and responsibility skills. What skills and training do you have? I am CPR, First Aid, and Heimlich maneuver certified. My three years of experience as a lifeguard strengthened my ability to stay calm, recognize potential safety concerns, and respond appropriately in emergencies. I consider myself patient, dependable, attentive, and caring. I understand the importance of creating a safe and comfortable environment where children can have fun while parents have peace of mind.
