Emma S., Child Care in Manhattan, KS 66502 with 5 years of paid experience

I love working with kids because it reminds me of how amazing and exciting the world can be. I started working with kids when I was about 13 years old. I started working with kids of special needs about 4 years ago. I have been working with infants for about 4 years as well and since then I have been working with children of all ages. In my spare time, I like to volunteer with the special needs community along with local events. When I'm not volunteering I enjoy reading and studying. One thing you should know about me is I work well with children that have special needs, and work well with larger groups of children. My skills include patience, enthusiasm, compassion and empathy.

Makayla  C., Child Care in Manhattan, KS 66502 with 7 years of paid experience

Hi, I’m Makayla! I’m a sophomore at Kansas State University who has been babysitting for over 9 years and have cared for kids of all ages, from infants to school-aged children. Right now, I regularly watch a 10-month-old, so I’m very comfortable with diapers, bottles, nap schedules, and keeping little ones happy and safe. I also love spending time with older kids—whether it’s helping with homework, getting them to and from school, or just making the day fun with games and activities. Families can count on me to be dependable, patient, and positive. I know how important it is to create a safe, caring environment, and I always try to bring a lot of energy and flexibility to the job. My schedule is very flexible, so let me know what you need and I am happy to help or move things around to make it work!

What i love about being a sitter is to form a trusting and fun relationship with the kids, as well as providing a safe environment where they are encouraged to grow. I have 4 years of experience in childcare, I've babysat lots and also worked as a nursery attendant at my church for all 4 years of high school. I am a very patient and i have a positive attitude in stressful situations.

Randi P., Child Care in Manhattan, KS 66502 with 2 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Randi, and I’m currently getting my degree in Elementary Education. Working with kids is something I truly love! I have been working with kids for many years, I grew up babysitting for my neighborhood so I have great experience with caring for children for extended periods of time. I’m a very creative, energetic person with a naturally happy personality, and I enjoy bringing that energy into everything I do with kids — whether that’s doing crafts, playing games, helping with routines, or just being someone they feel comfortable and safe around. I’m hoping to find a recurring childcare position where I can build a strong connection with a family, but I’m also more than happy to help with occasional babysitting as well. I take pride in being dependable, engaging, and caring, and I would love the opportunity to support your family and be a positive part of your child’s day.
