Find experienced child care providers in De Soto, MO

I have absolutely loved spending time with children, since I can remember. On Sundays I volunteer at my church in the children’s ministry. I take care of children from ages 0-7 but I am also trained to care for children older than that. I have cared for children since I was a teenager, occasionally babysitting for friends, and family. My favorite part about being a sitter is watching the children learn, and experience things for the first time. I am first aid and cpr certified through Antonia fire station, and have had experience with potty training.

Hello, my name is Jordan! I have worked with children of all ages! I have over six years of paid childcare experience as a babysitter, youth gymnastics coach, and an assistant daycare teacher. I also have a seven month old son, so I feel very comfortable caring for newborns and infants. Currently, I am in a full time nursing program where my class schedule changed every eight weeks (I get my new schedules about six weeks before they begin). I would love to find a family that is in need of overnight/weekend care, or a family that has a flexible schedule. It would also be ideal if my little man could tag along! In my free time, I enjoy doing crafts, reading, and spending time outdoors! I am CPR certified, have reliable transportation, am pet friendly and a non-smoker. I can help with homework and studying, cooking, cleaning, and pick ups/drop offs. I would love to answer any further questions that you may have! I'm looking forward to hearing from you!

Hi! I’m Kamisha, a dependable and caring childcare provider with professional experience working with children of all ages. I have a strong background as a swim instructor and lifeguard, which has given me extensive experience keeping children safe, engaged, and comfortable while building trusting relationships with both kids and their families. I genuinely love working with children and enjoy creating a fun, patient, and supportive environment where they can be themselves. I’m comfortable planning activities, helping with routines, preparing simple meals and snacks, assisting with homework, and keeping children active and entertained. Safety is always one of my biggest priorities, and my experience in aquatics has taught me to stay attentive, calm, and responsible in all kinds of situations. I’m currently pursuing a career in nursing and hope to continue working with children and families along the way. I’d love to find a family who is looking for someone they can trust, communicate openly with, and feel confident leaving their children with!

I have been working with children for over 20 years in different roles. I started babysitting as a teenager, and in my 20s started working with children with Autism. I have used positive reinforcement, 1-2-3 Magic, and redirecting to encourage healthy behaviors. I have a degree in Social Work and as a professional I am familiar with child development, and worked as a Parent Educator. I'm trained in Parents As Teachers, Circle of Security, and First Aid and CPR, among numerous other trainings. I understand child development benchmarks and milestones, and know how to facilitate the development a childs emerging skills through play. Working in Family Preservation, as a Social Worker, was what I loved the most about my career. Helping families stay together, where children can grow and learn in a natural, supportive, loving environment was one of the most meaningful ways I could use my education. Now being semi retired, providing childcare is my way of continuing the most rewarding part of my career. I love to cook, docrafts, am imaginative and artistic, and able to keep kids engaged in activities. My hope is to find a client where i can be of service to the family and enjoy watching the kids learn and grow. Many of the families I have worked with Im still in contact and maintain friendships. Please message me for more detailed information on my qualifications andnto see if I may be a good fit for your child care needs. Thank you so much Ari Patterson
