Abigail  B., Babysitter in Kirkwood, MO 63122 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.

Alexis W., Babysitter in Kirkwood, MO 63122 with 11 years of paid experience

I love working with kids! I have worked at an elementary school (as a substitute teacher and daycare counselor), as well as at Autism Behavioral Spectrum, and in my free time, I tutor. I have a lot of experience working with children, and genuinely love being around them and learning from them. I studied psychology and anatomy at Maryville University, and I am now pursuing my doctorate in health/pediatric psychology. I’m CPR certified, and I passed my EMT course as well. I’ve grown up babysitting my four younger siblings as well as working for other families in St. Louis and Kansas City. I really enjoy spending time with children, and I hope someday I’ll get the opportunity to meet yours.

Carolina was exceptional! My family was visiting STL from out of state so hiring a babysitter was a scary thought. I read through Carolina’s reviews about how wonderful she was, and that paired with her au pair experience put my mind at ease. She was easy to communicate with, showed up on time, and immediately went to work making a playful connection with my toddler. She sent photos throughout the evening and my girls loved her. I would absolutely recommend Carolina, she is warm and nurturing, jumps right into action with the kiddos. Hire her!

Olive M., Babysitter in Kirkwood, MO 63122 with 7 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Olive, and I have several years of experience caring for children of all ages through nanying, regular babysitting, transportation help, and camp counseling. I currently work for multiple families on both a regular and occasional basis, helping with school pickups and drop-offs, after-school care, playtime, meals, routines, and keeping kids engaged in a safe and supportive environment. I previously worked as a nanny for a family of five, caring for three children ages 3-7, where I was heavily involved in daily routines, activities, meals, outings, and family trips. I've served as a junior camp counselor at Central Studio, helping young campers engage in creative activities while ensuring a fun and structured environment. Beyond childcare, I have experience in customer service and team leadership, working at Oberweis Dairy and as a manager at Snarf's Sandwiches. These roles have strengthened my responsibility, patience, and multitasking skills, which I bring to every babysitting job. I love working with kids, whether it's through creative play, outdoor activities, or helping with homework. Looking forward to meeting your family! - Olive

I am a trusted caregiver, whom has cared for many children. I provide a fun, creative environment for your child to enjoy his/her day.I love to teach, and feel it is important to always lead by example, Children look to adults for examples of kindness,sharing and positive behavior. I really have a great time caring for children of all ages. I am aware of their stages of development, and get the biggest kick out of seeing the excitement on their face when the accomplish something new. I cook as organically as possible, and currently cook for a child with food allergies. Most importantly, I understand the importance of communication between myself and you as a parent, I am a big note taker, and I will keep you informed on your children's day. I think it is important to keep your home neat and tidy. Thank-You. Lynne

Lynne has been SO helpful for us. She always arrives a few minutes early to go over things for the day before I leave. She always leaves me notes from what went on that day, activities they did, how many poops he had, etc. My son is happy when I get home- so he must like her! I'm a new mom and she always has good tips to share with me too! She always picks up after herself, my son, and even helps me get the kitchen in order!

Palwasha M., Babysitter in Kirkwood, MO 63122 with 10 years of paid experience

I am 34 years old. I have cumulatively about 10 years of nannying/babysitting experience. In highschool at the age of 16, I babysat and took care of my baby and toddler cousin on a part-time basis. In college, I was an after-school nanny caring for a 6-year old and driving/taking her to activities. I had a full-time position caring for a 10-month and homeschooling a 4-year old. I have worked with special needs children. I have managed a household. I have worked with several twin toddler families on an as-needed basis. I have done overnight care for an infant. I have watched as many as 5 children at once. I have professional teaching and tutoring experience. I play tennis and violin. I promote enriching activities for children. I'm sort of a germaphobe so I am very good about being clean and keeping things clean! I am a non-smoker. I do have a college degree. I will care for your children as if they were my own.

I’m a sophomore at WashU studying math and have 10 years of babysitting experience with kids from the ages of 1 to 13. My go to activity when babysitting is to either take the kids out to the park, or if rainy, enjoy an indoor crafting session! I have my own car, so I could easily drive to wherever you’re located! I’m also CPR and First Aid certified (expires and will be renewed July 2027).

Isabella did a fantastic job babysitting our kiddos, aged 1 and 9. She was very timely, responsible and organized, and we really appreciated how fast she was able to adapt to our kids’ needs and their routines. She went above and beyond, not only providing exceptional childcare, but helping around the house too. Our kids always look forward to babysitting nights with Isa!

Hi, my name is Simone! I recently graduated from the University of Maryland and am starting law school in the fall. I have loved working with kids my entire life. My favorite age group is toddlers/preschoolers, but I have experience with kids of all ages. I am looking for summer nannying or babysitting opportunities, as well as part-time opportunities during the school year. I have 6 years of experience working with kids as a camp counselor and babysitter, including children with special needs. I am CPR and First Aid certified and have my own car. My focus is to provide a safe, routine-focused, and supportive space for your child where they will be able to learn and grow. I love crafts, baking, pretend play, encouraging independent time, and spending time outdoors. I am firm but kind and I approach childcare with empathy, patience, and respect. In my personal time, I enjoy trying new recipes, playing piano, reading, playing chess, and sewing. I look forward to meeting you!
