I currently care for children for date nights, after school care and parents mornings out as well as last minute requests if I am not already booked by another family. I have experience with toddlers through 14 years of age. I am a hands on babysitter that will play with the children in my care. We go on outings to the park, libraries, pottery painting, Monkey Joe’s and other age appropriate outings. I have had all my Covid Vaccinations and my RSV vaccine, have an excellent driving record, CPR/First Aid Certification and will supply a current background check. References upon request.

Kaleb H., Child Care in Nicholasville, KY 40356 with 1 year of paid experience

Starting Rate: $16/hour: I’m currently offering childcare services starting at $16 per hour as I build more formal professional experience in the childcare field. I have about 10 years of informal childcare experience caring for family members and have experience caring for children of different ages, including infants. Cooking & Meal Preparation: I’m very proficient and comfortable in the kitchen and can prepare a variety of meals and foods for children and families. I can make dishes such as fried rice, omelets, and other homemade meals, and I’m comfortable following recipes or preparing meals based on a child’s preferences and a family’s needs. I’m happy to help with age-appropriate meal and snack preparation as part of my childcare responsibilities. Caring, Dependable & Responsible: I’m a caring, dependable, and responsible childcare provider who understands the patience, attention, responsibility, and safety that children need. Although my childcare experience has primarily been informal, I’m looking forward to gaining more formal experience and continuing to grow my skills in this field. My previous work experience has also helped me develop strong leadership, communication, organization, and safety skills. As a manager at Firehouse Subs, I supervised and trained teenage employees while making sure daily operations ran smoothly. I also worked as a computer operator at Creative Liquid Coatings, where I worked around and helped oversee adult employees while ensuring work was completed correctly and safely. I’m patient, attentive, and willing to learn what works best for each family. My goal is to provide children with a safe, comfortable, positive, and nurturing environment while giving parents peace of mind. I take pride in being someone families can rely on and am excited to bring my experience, cooking skills, and responsible work ethic into professional childcare.

Kaleb did a great job watching our daughter and baby boy. He followed all the instructions my wife and I gave him and really went above and beyond. He even helped clean around the house, cooked for the kids, and left the kitchen cleaner than it was when he arrived. We really appreciated how dependable and helpful he was. We would definitely recommend his services and will be using him again if we need someone to watch the kids.

Tara was wonderful, and our kiddo asked when she could come back. Definitely child-recommended. We had no worries, and will definitely be contacting her first for our next date night.

Jazmyn L., Child Care in Nicholasville, KY 40356 with 1 year of paid experience

Hi! My name is Jazmyn, and I’m a college student in the Wilmore area looking for flexible babysitting opportunities. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and would love to become a dependable sitter for a family in the area. I have experience working with children as a camp counselor and as a paraeducator substitute in elementary schools, so I have experience caring for children of different ages and needs. Through these experiences, I’ve learned how to keep kids safe and comfortable while creating a fun and positive environment. I’m comfortable facilitating playtime, helping with meals and bedtime routines, keeping kids entertained, and following parents’ instructions and routines. With my current college schedule, I’m especially available for evenings, date nights, weekends, and occasional babysitting. I’m also interested in getting to know a few families who may need a regular sitter or occasional backup care. I’d love the opportunity to meet your family and see if I’d be a good fit!
