Find experienced child care providers in Columbia, MO

Hi! My name is Emilia, and I am a college student at Harding University with a strong passion for helping families create calm, organized, and supportive home environments. I have experience in both childcare and household management, including cleaning, organizing, laundry, meal prep, and running errands. I’ve worked with families to help take stress off their day-to-day responsibilities so they can spend more quality time together. I also grew up helping care for my younger brother and cousins, which naturally built my love for working with kids. I am dependable, flexible, and communicate my schedule clearly and in advance. I thrive in both structured routines and situations that require adaptability. I bring a fun, positive energy into the home while also prioritizing peace, order, and efficiency. I am calm under pressure, proactive, and always look for ways to be helpful. In addition to my home experience, I’ve worked as a server and barista, where I developed strong communication skills, attention to detail, and the ability to multitask in fast-paced environments. I also have a natural eye for organization and enjoy creating systems that help homes run smoothly. I love staying active and being outdoors, and I enjoy engaging with kids in ways that are both fun and enriching. I have previously been CPR certified and would be happy to renew my certification if needed. I truly enjoy working with people and take pride in creating environments where families feel supported, cared for, and at ease.

Hello! I am currently a college student home for summer break looking to continue babysitting. After graduation, I plan to continue on to Occupational Therapy School, aspiring to work in pediatrics.

Hi! I’m a 25-year-old Colombian athlete and high-performance Track & Field competitor specializing in hammer throw. I’m fully bilingual in Spanish and English, which helps me communicate easily with both children and parents. I graduated from the University of Missouri with a degree in Psychology and a certificate in Human Behavior. I also worked as a Behavior Technician supporting children with autism, where I developed strong skills in patience, emotional support, positive behavior guidance, and creating safe, structured environments for children. Families describe me as responsible, warm, dependable, and attentive. I genuinely enjoy helping children learn, feel supported, and have fun in a safe environment. I love creating engaging activities, spending time outdoors, helping with homework, and encouraging creativity and confidence. As an athlete, discipline, trustworthiness, and consistency are a big part of who I am. I take safety seriously, communicate well with parents, and always aim to care for children with the same attention and kindness I would want for my own family. I also love animals, enjoy cooking healthy meals, and would be happy to help with routines around the home. I’m always eager to teach, learn, and be a positive role model for the children I care for.
