Sittercity helps Chesterfield families find the best babysitters

I have five years of child care experience, three with private sitting and two and a half in an early childhood development center. I am especially experienced with kids ages 0-5 years and have three years experience with identical twins/multiple siblings. I am First Aid/CPR certified with several other certifications pertaining to childhood development and safe sleep. I love to encourage kids to develop hands on experience and involvement on everyday tasks both around the house and in the classroom. I believe that kids learn best through watching and having a space where they can make the connections for the processes while you are there to offer support if needed.

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.

Hi! My name is Lexie and I’ve been in childcare since I was able! I started babysitting when I was 10 to my nieces and nephews before babysitting locally through my teen years to multiple families, all of whom I watched until I left my hometown. Once I turned 18 and left for college, I had a few families I watched part time through care.com. When I took a break from school in 2019, I became a nanny to a family with then 5, now 6 children. I currently work at a childcare facility (I have had a state background check, been fingerprinted, and completed both infant/child/adult CPR and first aid, as well as safe sleep courses) assisting ages 6 weeks-5 years and am a nanny to an almost one year old. I am also a personal care attendant a few evenings throughout the week. I have experience with children with behavioral needs as well as medical, I am well versed on anything your child may need! I am comfortable with any age, any amount, and any pets! I like to think of myself as a chaos coordinator of fun fanatics! Every day is an opportunity to learn a lesson or make a memory, and some days we’ll find a way to do both. I look forward to chatting more! I can send references upon request. Thank you for your time.

I am the second oldest of 6 kids, the youngest is 7. I have been babysitting since I was 12 and have always enjoyed being around children. People have always told me that I’m very patient, kind, and loving. I have experience with all ages and am happy to do anything from reading and peek-a-boo to helping with homework and housework. I am certified in cpr and first aid.

Hi! My name is Merritt :) I am a recent graduate from Butler University with a BS in Biochemistry and a minor in Healthcare Administration. I am currently taking a gap year while applying to medical schools with goals to pursue a career as a medical scientist specializing in pediatric oncology. I am passionate about providing children with safe, joyful, and nurturing care. I have spent the last 7 years working with children of all ages--from newborns to teenagers-- and multiples (up to four children at any one time, including nanny share) as well as children with both medical and developmental special needs. My background working and volunteering in healthcare and childcare allows me to approach every situation with a level-head, confidence, and compassion. I am EMT-B trained as well as certified in CPR/First-Aid and "Stop the Silence" CSA prevention. I am happy to assist with meal prep, light cleaning, laundry, errands, and pet care. I love the outdoors, animals, crafts, puzzles, and creating hands-on activities that spark curiosity and creativity in kids. I am always looking for a long-term opportunity with a family who values warmth, structure, and strong communication; I am very open to overnight positions. Please reach out with any questions--I'd love to learn more about your family's needs!

Hi there! I’m Erin, a 35-year-old with a passion for working with children. I’m currently seeking part-time opportunities but am open to full-time work as well. Over the years, I’ve worn a few hats, from nannying to teaching outdoors at Whole Child Montessori School in Portland, and even working as a rock climbing instructor. With a background in English from the University of Missouri - Columbia, I also bring a love for learning and creativity to everything I do. In my free time, you can usually find me climbing, running, or exploring the outdoors on hikes. Adventure and activity are a big part of my life, and I love bringing that spirit to my work with children. My approach is all about empowering kids to make safe, informed decisions while offering plenty of positive reinforcement and compassion. I always make sure to keep things light with a sense of humor and embrace their unique personalities—there’s nothing quite like seeing kids shine in their own goofy ways! With over ten years of experience caring for infants through to older kids, I’m well-equipped for the energy and excitement that comes with the job. Coming from a big family myself, I know how to keep up with the lively atmosphere that kids bring. I especially enjoy encouraging imaginative play, getting outside for adventures, and diving into a good story together. I’m fully vaccinated and boosted, and I’d love the chance to connect with you and your family! Warmly, Erin

I am a certified, experienced early childhood educator, with a bachelors and masters degrees in Early Childhood Education, and 14 years of experience teaching and working with children, mainly in childcare settings. Throughout that time I have worked in and out of all age groups and classrooms, from infants to middle school. The majority of my experience has been with early childhood (ages infant-6 years). My most recent teaching position was in a private preschool in Creve Coeur that served infants-6 year olds. There, I worked with the 1 & 2 year olds and the 2 & 3-year-olds. Prior to the pandemic I worked in a different private school teaching 3 & 3 year olds in the morning and 4 & 5 year olds in the afternoon. Then, during the pandemic, I worked for a few months as a nanny for a 2 & 6 year old, while helping the 6 year old and his 7 year old classmate with virtual learning. I have recently decided to leave teaching, due to the stresses and distractions that take some of the joy away from it for me. However, I I do still love and connect with young children and would like to continue working with them in a different capacity. I feel like nannying and babysitting would be a perfect way to do this. During my experience as a nanny I drove the children to many places, and left her car seat strapped in the back seat of my car, so I am fully willing and able to do the same for you if that is a need of yours. I also provided many other engaging play and learning experiences and activities for them. In addition to my daytime nanny and babysitting experience, I do have many years of experience babysitting on evenings and weekends if that is a need of yours as well. I am fully vaccinated and First Aid and CPR certified. I love animals (dogs paricuarily) and consider myself to be very nurturing with a positive attitude and disciplne approach. If anyone is interested in my service, please mesaage me. i would love to speak to you.
