Abigail  B., Babysitter in Black Walnut, MO 63301 with 2 years of paid experience

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.

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.

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.

Katie C., Babysitter in Black Walnut, MO 63301 with 3 years of paid experience

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 have availability throughout the week during the day, evenings, and nights through the first week of August. I also have availability during the weekends, outside of what I have listed. 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!

Valentina C., Babysitter in Black Walnut, MO 63301 with 2 years of paid experience

Hi! I’m Valentina, and I would describe myself as a responsible, caring, and energetic person with over two years of experience caring for children of different ages. I have worked as a part-time babysitter and a full-time live-in nanny, caring for multiple children and helping with school routines, meal preparation, playtime, bedtime, transportation, and creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment every day. I love being around kids because I enjoy building meaningful connections with them, watching them grow, and helping them feel happy, safe, and confident. My goal is to give parents peace of mind by ensuring their children are safe, well cared for, and treated with the kindness, patience, and respect they deserve. I also aim to provide families with the support they need, allowing parents the time to focus on their daily responsibilities while feeling confident that their children are in the hands of someone they can trust. Through my experience, I have developed strong communication, organization, problem-solving, and multitasking skills. I’m dependable, patient, and able to stay calm under pressure. I’m also comfortable caring for multiple children at once and adapting to different family routines. Extra: • Former competitive gymnast. • Active and athletic. • Experience as a gymnastics coach. • Fluent in English and Spanish.

Valentina was easy to communicate with, punctual, and most importantly: my kids loved her! I was WFH while the three of them played and she kept the kids engaged the entire time, handled tough moments well, and had no issues following and enforcing our house rules. Highly recommended and we'll definitely be reaching out to her again for future jobs.

Hello! My name is Maddie. I’ve been working with kids for several years and have been paid for 4. I have experience with all ages and can change diapers as well as helped potty train. I love working with kids and helping them become the wonderful little people we know they can be. I am first aid and CPR certified and know how to remain calm in difficult situations with kids. I would love the opportunity to help care for your kids and help make your day a little bit easier. What I enjoy about sitting is getting to help kids feel comfortable in their own homes and have fun with them as well as helping with all the day to day little things. I enjoy getting to help out around the house because I know parents are busy and i love getting to do my part. I’ve always loved working with kids and I love singing to them, playing games with them, or even just laying with them. I am very excited for the chance to help with your kids and hang out with them!

Maddie was perfect teacher for my 3 year old daughter. My daughter isn’t afraid to push the line and Maddie was able to help her see that line in a loving caring environment where my daughter could still be herself!
