I am passionate about working with children because I love helping them discover their core values, find their voice, and explore their purpose in life. Encouraging students to try new things, view the world from different perspectives, and simply enjoy the process of learning is at the heart of my approach. I have experience working with children ranging from infancy to age 11, including in-home ABA therapy, supporting diverse behaviors, and fostering emotional regulation. While working in the Blue Valley School District, I have worked 1:1 with students with a variety of learning experiences, creating personalized lessons and learning tools tailored to their capabilities. I enjoy designing fun and engaging activities that make learning both exciting and meaningful, often using naturalistic teaching strategies to integrate learning into everyday activities. Beyond educational support, I also assist with home management tasks such as watering plants, feeding pets, light cleaning, and running errands. I enjoy taking children to activities like the park or out for a treat, providing enriching experiences outside of structured learning. I am actively pursuing my BA in Elementary Education, having completed coursework in learning sciences, communication, and integrated sciences. I am well-versed in child development theories, including Piaget and Erikson. I plan to obtain CPR and First Aid certification and complete the necessary training as an added measure of safety for a nanny position. This will help ensure I am fully prepared to respond calmly and effectively in any emergency situation and provide the highest level of care and protection for the children in my care.

Hi, I’m Eiley! I’m almost 21 years old and have been a nanny for about 7 years. I’ve worked with children of all ages — from as young as 2–3 months old up to 19 years old, including children with disabilities and special needs. Most of my experience is with infants, toddlers, and young children under 5–6 years old, often caring for little siblings at the same time. I’m very comfortable managing multiple children and have cared for up to 4 at once. I also went through my EMT, which includes infant and child CPR, choking response, and Stop the Bleed training. Your child’s safety is always my top priority, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I have up to 6 strong references available and pride myself on being dependable, patient, nurturing, and adaptable. I’m extremely flexible with hours, pay, and household expectations — whether that includes light housekeeping, meal prep, organizing, or helping wherever needed to make your home run smoothly. I truly love what I do and aim to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment where children feel comfortable, cared for, and encouraged to grow with lots of different activities in and or outside the house!

Hi! My name is Erica, I’m 26 years old, and I am currently a dental resident at University Health Lakewood Medical Center. I just relocated to KC for this position and recently graduated from the University of Tennessee Health Science Center with my DDS. During my time in Memphis I babysat for multiple families, with kids aged 14-mo to 12 years old (can provide references from multiple families) over the course of 3 years. I was also heavily involved in my church, Memphis Tabernacle, and served on our kids ministry team 2x per month for 4 years. While I did my undergraduate Biology degree in Tulsa, Oklahoma, before moving to Memphis, I babysat for a family with three kids consistently, and I also worked as a reading tutor for ReadSmart Learning, in which I would help kids ages 5-12 improve their reading level. I love taking care of kids and grew up with younger cousins and children that I would look after all the time thanks to the after-school program of a private school that my mom was the administrator for. I am energetic and flexible with kids, as well as firm when needed. I have received my CPR certification multiple times and just renewed it this last fall 2023. Due to my residency schedule, I am available weekends and occasional weeknights if you and your partner go on a date night, or something of that nature.

I have 6 years of experience babysitting multiple children (up to 4 at a time) ages newborn-12 years old. Currently I am looking for temporary/flexible or very part time work as I am a full-time student in nursing school. I did work in a student teaching program and was in Pre-K classrooms learning about the importance of early education for children as well as creating engaging lesson plans. I also have experience in Montessori settings. I have a current copy of my Basic Life Support certification as well as my Food Handler’s if prepping meals and snacks is a necessity for your family. Thank you for your consideration. Looking forward to hearing from you!

I'm outgoing, creative, fun, loving, patient, supportive, flexible, family oriented, knowledgeable, and very caring. I'm a mom of three kids and many adopted kids and grandkids. I'm a hands on kind of babysitter that enjoys doing reading, crafts, cooking, puppets, playing games, outdoor activities, and free activities in community. I've been babysitting since I was 15 up at church, bowling alley, and many other places. I've got background check. I have my own vehicle. I'm working to get updated CPR and First aid training.

My name's Sarah and I’ve been in the childcare industry for going on 27 years now. I have experience with kids of all ages and I'm CPR certified in all age groups. I just finished with the family I've been with for the past 2 years- their youngest is ready for Pre- K *proud tears*. ! I'm looking for a family in need of a full time nanny. I love pets and drive an unbelievably reliable vehicle. I have tutoring experience as well and it's not unlike me to do the dishes or sweep the floor while your child takes a nap or plays with toys on the floor (always within my eyesight)! I can do school drop offs or pick ups, take to after school activities, or bring them to meet you at a doctor's appointment you forgot about until the last minute ("life"- It happens! Whatever comes up, I've got you!! 😉). I wish the best of luck to you in your search and hope to be meeting you and your little blessing(s) soon!

Hello, I became a caregiver at the age of 13 years old after going to babysitter school at Lee's Summit Hospital. At first I worked for family members but as I got older I worked for friend, co-workers, teachers, and for families who have reached out to me. I am CPR and First AID certified. I currently work as a substitute teacher and paraprofessional. I love doing what I do because I get to peak into the future and I like doing work that I know is helpful in some way.

I absolutely love helping people and making a difference to better thier lives, which betters my life because I feel fulfilled in how I choose to spend my time and effort. Being able to make a positive impact on childrens lives is an absolute gift in my opinion and I am so greatful to the parents who allow me to become a part of their childs life. I have experience in both full and part time work as a care provider for many families on and off for the last 25 years. I also have a 22yr old son with autism who is a high functioning college student. I also have experience with low functioning special needs children as well. Although I have a BA in accounting, I originally majored in early childhood development and education and minored in special needs when I first started attending community College. I ended up changing my major in 2008 due to depleding teaching job opportunities. Although I have always wanted to be an early education teacher, I went into accounting to have better financial security obtaining employment. After working in the corporate field of accounting for the last 5 years, I felt very unfulfilled and want to persue employment as a care provider for my personal happiness. I have come to the conclusion that spending my time to help others and be a part of a child's life is more important and more satisfying for me at this time in my life. I also enjoy the daily tasks that come along with providing care, so I have experience cleaning and doing laundry as well as meal prep and running errands. As an animal lover, I also enjoy providing care for pets. I also have experience in homework help and tutoring. Although my certifications have not been renewed in many years, I did have both first aid and child/infant CPR certifications in the past.
