I am currently working as an educational associate for special needs preschoolers. I have a CNA license and have experience with multiple physical and mental disabilities. I prefer working with children ages 2-5, but am willing to care for newborns-11. Because I work at a school district and am in school for social work, I am looking for families that need summer care. I am available approximately from June 1st-August 23rd. I love to take kids to parks or other free community activities. If your family is able and willing to compensate for other activities that have a cost, I would be more than willing to explore these activities with your little ones! Once the school year begins, I will be available for occasional sitting and potentially after school care. I hope I can be a good fit for your family!

I have worked with various ages of children for over 15 years. I love to interact with children and watch them learn through play.

I currently am a co-lead infant teacher at my current job so I have a lot of experience working with infants. I am also CPR + First Aid certified!

I enjoy meeting new children, and love to experience their growth as they get older. I would call myself pretty patient, strong minded and a hard worker.

I’m looking for part-time babysitting or nannying jobs with families who need consistent, reliable help. I recently graduated from KU a semester early and will be starting medical school in the fall, and I’m hoping to spend this time doing something I genuinely enjoy: working with kids. I have years of experience babysitting, teaching swim lessons, and volunteering as a camp counselor, and I love creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment for children. I’m responsible, patient, and energetic, and I’m excited to help out however I can.

Hello my name is Kaitlin. I have my associates degree in childcare. For the past two and a half years I worked at a daycare. I was in the infants room then in the two year old room. I was a nanny for a family of six kids ages infant to school age. I was a nanny for a couple with a son. I was his nanny from newborn til he was 4. I took care of a family with two daughters. One of the daughters was 1 years old and the other was 3 when I first started take care of them. I am looking to get back into being a nanny being able to have a small group size vs at a center. I am really great at helping children learn through play and discovery. I occasionally take care of a few children on some weekends of the families I use to nanny.

Working with kids just gives me peace of mind, knowing that I’m helping the child grow learn in so many other different things. I have a lot of younger siblings and I’ve also taken care of other people’s kids. I have a lot of different experience with different age groups. I don’t know if it helps any but I do have a three month old son myself. I do know CPR and I do know first aid. I am not certified, but I have taken classes for them before
