Jessica W., Babysitter in Black Walnut, MO 63301 with 10 years of paid experience

I have 10 years of early childcare experience. I have experience with babysitting, leading summer camps, and working in early childcare centers. I can help with daily routines, remote learning/small lesson plans, and sometimes travel for example. I have both my Bachelors and Masters in Criminal Justice & Criminology. Throughout my years in school, I also took many courses centered around childcare and development. I am currently CPR and First Aid/Oxygen certified and also have up to date clock hours. I have primarily worked with infants through 5 year olds; however, I do have experience working with school aged and older children.

Claire H., Babysitter in Black Walnut, MO 63301 with 4 years of paid experience

I'm a childcare provider with a deep passion for nurturing children's growth and development. My patient and creative nature allows me to engage children with educational and imaginative activities, making their time in my care enjoyable and stimulating. With 4 years of daycare experience, CPR certification, Safe Sleep certification and 11 hours of Early Child Development coursework, I'm well-equipped to handle up to 4 children of various ages (0-11). I prioritize open communication with parents, providing regular updates and using their preferred method of contact. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules and ensuring a safe and nurturing environment. From outdoor games to board games and puzzles, I love participating in a variety of activities that promote learning and fun. I'm also willing to assist with light housekeeping. In addition to children, I also have a love for animals and have two dogs of my own. I would love to help with your family's childcare needs.

Claire was an extremely professional young lady who always came prepared with activities every day for her and my daughter to do together. She was extremely close with my daughter and tailored their activities to what my kid liked to do, whether it be painting or color, arts and crafts etc. You will not go wrong with hiring Claire as a babysitter; she became family to us, and she did a lot more than any hired babysitter might do: she truly loved our daughter. Claire took great care in nurturing her young mind, and went out of her way to make our daughter feel special. She was our babysitter for roughly two years until we moved away. You will not find a better or more nurturing person to care for your children.

Sholonda G., Babysitter in Black Walnut, MO 63301 with 14 years of paid experience

Hello, My name is Sholonda. I have 19 years of hands-on childcare experience, including the past 14 years supporting elementary students as an Instructional Assistant and before that, 5 years working in early childhood education in a preschool setting. I currently work for the Wentzville School District as an Instructional Assistant supporting elementary-aged children, so I’m very comfortable managing routines, guiding behavior positively, and keeping kids engaged, safe, and supported. I also have experience with date nights and overnight care, and I can provide strong references. I’m CPR and First Aid certified and bring a calm, reliable presence into every home. I love adding creativity to childcare and offer optional fun themed weekly activities—like arts & crafts, simple cooking, creative writing and taking trips to finish out the themed week (ex: taking a trip to the zoo, etc) with your permission of course. I provide the supplies for our projects; families just need to have a flat workspace (great for watercolor painting and crafts) and access to basics like a kitchen when needed. I’d love to support your family! Please note my availability:*** I’ll be working summer school in June from 8am–12pm, but I’m available after that for camp pick-ups and evening care. In July and August, I’m available for full-day care, including camp drop-offs and pick-ups if needed.***

Aj S., Babysitter in Black Walnut, MO 63301 with 25 years of paid experience

Gifted expertise with children of all ages! Newborn to 18 Hello! My name is AJ and I love children! Every child is unique and special; they deserve nothing less than my absolute best! Having 6 siblings myself, I have also worked with children in many capacities by advocating and caring for them through direct care, supervisory administrative roles & non profit boards. My formal education includes having an associates and bachelors degree in psychology. In addition to earning a Masters of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, I will complete my HTR for horticultural therapy in September. I am a gentle spirited, advanced clinical counseling therapist trainee at a local psychoanalytic clinic pursuing licensure for private practice. In my free time, I enjoy stand-up comedy; as a hobby I raise chickens, bees and grow a large fruit and vegetable garden. I enjoy cooking, landscaping and staring at the stars :) :) I am here to meet the needs of your family! It’s my pleasure & joy. Please openly cater your experience with me by informing me of what your child enjoys most: academics, nature, gaming, festivals or quiet time. Rest easy in the comfort of knowing your child’s safety, curiosity, interests and fun are my top priority.

AJ has been a huge blessing to our family, she is so gentle, kind, and caring with our little one. I love when I hear her reading and playing with her, she has a huge heart that shines through. She very quickly has become part of our family and makes you feel so comfortable and confident with her. She has made the transition going back to work as painless as possible, she sends pictures and videos and truly cares for her families. We hope she will remain a part of our family for a long time.

I’ve used Kimberly many times over the last 2 years and have had a great experience. My child has a lot of fun with her and looks forward to her sitting. No issues going out for the evening, and extending hours later or asking for earlier. Prompt responses on texts, calls and communicates clearly any issues. Would recommend and I plan to use again.

Sarah K., Babysitter in Black Walnut, MO 63301 with 3 years of paid experience

I graduated from Saint Louis University with a B.S. in English and minor in Catholic Studies in the spring of 2024. I love working with kids as they tend to make life interesting in unexpected and novel ways! Who wouldn’t want their joy? I have worked as a nanny for three families whose children have ranged from 2 to 10 years of age. I have experience with potty training, maintaining routines, engaging kids in age appropriate activities, snack and lunch times, and buckling kids into front and rear facing car seats with 5-point harnesses. I work closely with families to ensure I follow their parenting style, discipline standards, and routine. Communication is a vital element of my job. Outside of nannying, I have taught reading and phonics to students of all ages with disabilities at a tutoring center called Lindamood-Bell. I also have experience working as a substitute teacher. I love working with children, specifically students, because passing on knowledge is so fulfilling for me. I am looking for more experience working one-on-one with children in order to prepare me to homeschool my own future kids. Thank you for viewing my profile!
