I have over six years of professional caregiving experience. I have mainly worked with children and adults with developmental disabilities. I have worked with all ages, from nine months to ninety-seven years old. I used to work for the Wisconsin Early Autism Project using Applied Behavior Analysis, or "play therapy", to help children with autism develop life skills. I still use the techniques I learned regularly in my current career as a sitter . I'm good at fostering a fun, educational environment. I am a very active and engaged sitter. I like to play games, make art, and play music. I use every opportunity to help children learn something new. I can help with homework and light housekeeping. I play saxophone and guitar, and could help children who are learning those instruments. I have experience watching up to six children at a time. I am fluent in American Sign Language. I am CPR and first aid certified, and registered with the Missouri Family Care Safety Registry. I will provide my resume upon request. I am currently available Mon/Wed/Fri and most weekends.

Howdy! I'm Alexx the loving experienced sitter and preschool teacher! I’m currently a full-time preschool teacher in the toddler room entering my second year, and I’m also pursuing my bachelor’s degree in Child Development. Caring for children is more than just a job to me, it’s part of my family legacy. Both my mother and grandmother were preschool teachers, and I’m proud to continue in their footsteps. On the topic of family I come from a big one! I have babysat all 17 of my younger cousins, nieces and nephew's over the years so I’m very comfortable juggling multiple kiddos and meeting each child’s unique needs. I’m CPR certified (infant/child and adult), and while I don’t own a car, I do have a valid driver’s license and am happy to drive if needed. Pets are no problem I’m a big animal lover! I grew up with dogs and currently have two cats. Before teaching, I was a certified housekeeper for two years, so you can count on me to keep things clean, organized, and toys put away. I bring patience, energy, and genuine care to every family I work with. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and provide a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for your little ones!

New to St. Louis from North Carolina, and relocating my new LLC to the Midwest, I am looking for occasional work in the area I excel. I have cared for children as well as cleaned homes and cooked my whole life. Prior to relocating to the area, I was with my last family for 2.5 years caring full-time for their 2 little girls since birth and miss them greatly. I do have two college degrees, one in nursing and the other in social work, which add education to my already natural ability and expertise working with children. I do have experience with children on the autism spectrum as well as newborns and multiples. My ideal position currently would be a with infants, including twins and on a part-time and flexible schedule. I hope to bring my magic into your home and care for your little one/s like I do my own grandchildren.

Hi there! My name is Zaria and I’m a childcare professional with over eight years of experience working with children of all ages, from infants to teens. My background includes working as a professional babysitter, full-time nanny, and Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), giving me the skills to support children of all ages and a wide range of personalities and learning styles. I’ve had the joy of caring for children in home and classroom settings, including those with special needs. My time as an RBT gave me valuable experience supporting children with developmental, behavioral, and sensory differences, and it taught me how to create a calm, safe, and positive environment for every child. I approach each day with patience, empathy, and creativity, meeting kids where they are and helping them thrive in their own unique ways. I believe that every child deserves to feel seen, heard, and supported, and I work intentionally to provide a nurturing and inclusive environment. My caregiving philosophy centers on intentional and mindful interactions that help to build trust through empathy, active listening, and positive reinforcement. I believe kids do best when they feel safe, heard, and understood. I also love helping families feel confident that their children are in caring, capable hands. I’ve taken coursework in Child Development, Child Psychology, and Applied Behavior Analysis, which gives me a strong foundation in how children think, learn, and grow. When I’m not working, you can usually find me cooking, reading, writing, singing, or painting. I love bringing those hobbies into my childcare time, whether it’s through baking cookies together, singing songs, or making creative art projects. Overall, I’m passionate about helping children grow into their best selves and I look forward to partnering with families who value intentional, compassionate care.
