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 have 2 and a half years childcare experience with children ages 0 months to 12 years old. I also am cpr and first aid certified for infant/adult. I have a 4 year old that I would need to bring along with due to the fact I do not have childcare for him. I have worked with multiple children with special needs and am always willing to learn further to better fit your child's needs. I have paid for and can provide my extensive background check and can provide my cpr certificate as well. I also have an amazing letter of recommendation from my present/former boss. I am available to work Mondays and Tuesdays anytime.

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.

Hi, I’m Katie! I graduated from Creighton University in 2023 with a degree in psychology. I worked for a year as an assistant preschool teacher at a Montessori school working with kids aged 2.5-7, but I have worked with kids as old as 12. I currently work at Washington University as a research associate in the Psychiatry Department, and our study population is preteen girls. Currently, I am traveling but will be back sometime in October. I will definitely be around for the winter holidays if you need an extra hand! . The most amount of children I have babysat at once is 5, but I am most comfortable with the 1-3 range. When I am babysitting, I prefer to get the kids moving and doing something fun! Whether that’s making up a game or playing with toys they already have, they will have my full attention. I have tutored kids in the past, so I can help with homework and get snacks/meals ready for them. I can clean up around the house during my time with them as well. I used to be a lifeguard and I am CPR certified through my employer as well. Please message me if you’re interested in getting to know me better!

Hi families! 💕 As of now, I’m available for overnights Mon-Sun, late evenings, & Sat-Sun mornings. I’m also available for date nights & occasional babysitting. I’m so excited to connect with you! I’m currently a substitute teacher & absolutely love working w/kids—helping them learn, grow & have fun in a safe, caring environment. I bring patience, creativity & a positive attitude every day, whether we’re doing crafts, playing outside or learning something new. I’d love to support a family looking for an overnight/late evening nanny, babysitter or someone to call for date nights. I’m dependable, engaging & genuinely invested in children’s well-being. I’m lovable, energetic & love to have fun! I have a 10 yr old myself who brings me so much joy & happiness, so I know the ins & outs of caring for kids. I currently substitute when teachers call off, which allows me to work my own schedule, but I’m looking for stability—something FT or PT in the same field. I’m looking to be your perfect nanny since I already have advanced experience. I’d love to spend my time watching, caring for & teaching kids. I have experience watching 2 kids over the summer until they got older, & I can provide their family as a reference. I also love helping the elderly in my community & volunteering. I took a Child Development class in high school in 2013. After graduating, I worked as a Direct Support Professional & Personal Care Attendant helping individuals w/disabilities. Throughout the yrs, I’ve earned Mandt Training, CPR & First Aid, Substitute Teaching & Med Level 1. These certificates are currently active & I can provide proof. Caring for kids & adults isn’t just a job to me—it’s my passion. ❤️ When I was younger, I participated in the Big Brothers Big Sisters program. I graduated from the program & currently volunteer. I’ve also kept a connection w/my mentor, who was my Big Sister when I was younger. She is now a lawyer & can provide a great professional character reference for me. If you think I might be a good fit for your family, I’d be so happy to chat more! 😊
