Hi! My name is Keiko, and caring for kids has always been one of the greatest joys in my life. I attended Oklahoma State University, where I majored in Business Management with a concentration in Human Resources. Later, I felt called to healthcare, so I switched paths, attended nursing school, and earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing. I recently got engaged and moved to Edwardsville, IL, and I’m currently waiting to start my first nursing job as a Neonatal Intensive Care Nurse. I’ve always had a passion for children and even had a hard time deciding between teaching and my other degrees. Ultimately, I chose different fields — but I knew I would always find ways to be around and work with kids. Nursing allows me to do exactly that! Throughout college, I led the Foster Youth Advocates Club and worked as a support person in a Pre-K classroom that needed extra hands, especially with the littles. I also spent 10 weeks as a camp counselor at an overnight camp for children ages 5–13, where campers stayed for two weeks at a time. That experience gave me a deep understanding of caring for kids on a long-term, consistent basis. Alongside school, I worked with many local families doing school pick-ups and drop-offs, dentist appointments, after-school activities, haircuts, and everything in between. I love helping families in any way I can, and I take pride in being a positive role model for the children I care for. I truly believe it’s a privilege to be part of a child’s life and childhood — even in small ways — and I aim to create a safe, supportive, and fun environment for every child I meet. I’d love the opportunity to partner with your family!

I genuinely love being a sitter because caring for children brings me so much joy. I love helping them learn, laugh, and grow in safe and supportive environments. As a nursing student and oldest daughter of eight children, nurturing and being attentive comes naturally to me, and babysitting gives me the chance to pour that same care into families who trust me with their little ones. I find it rewarding to build bonds with kids and give parents peace of mind knowing their children are in good hands. I’ve been caring for children of all ages through volunteer work, family friends, and community programs for several years. I’ve worked with infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids. From bottle-feeding and diaper changes to homework help and bedtime routines. Through my involvement with organizations like DREAAM, I’ve supported children from diverse backgrounds, helped with tutoring, and organized fun learning activities. As a nursing major at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, I’m trained in health and safety practices, including CPR and first aid principles. I’m attentive, organized, and great at communication, which are skills that help me connect with both kids and parents. My background in leadership roles on campus has strengthened my ability to manage routines, stay calm under pressure, and handle multiple responsibilities with care. I also love creative activities, helping with schoolwork, and keeping children engaged in positive ways.
