Hello! I am a 22-year-old college student I'd describe my personality as bubbly, outgoing, and sweet. In my spare time, I like to crochet, hang out with my pets (I have 2 cats and 5 parrots), or being in nature! I like working with kids because of their curiosity and energy. I can be creative and help be a part of their growth :) Ideally I would love to build a good relationship with the parents and the kids so something long term is what I want.

I graduated from Saint Louis University with a B.S. in English and minor in Catholic Studies in the spring of 2024. I love working with kids as they tend to make life interesting in unexpected and novel ways! Who wouldn’t want their joy? I have worked as a nanny for two families whose children have ranged from 2 to 6.5 years of age. I have experience with potty training, maintaining routines, engaging kids in age appropriate activities, snack and lunch times, and buckling kids into front and rear facing car seats with 5-point harnesses. I work closely with families to ensure I follow their parenting style, discipline standards, and routine - communication is a vital element of my job. Outside of nannying, I have taught reading and phonics to students of all ages with disabilities at a tutoring center called Lindamood-Bell. I also have experience working as a substitute teacher. I love working with children, specifically students, because passing on knowledge is so fulfilling for me. I am looking for more experience working one-on-one with children in order to prepare me to homeschool my own future kids. Thank you for viewing my profile!

I am pursuing my degree in Elementary Education and have three wonderful children of my own. I believe in treating children with respect and meeting them where they are. I value their individuality. My top priority is always to ensure children are in a safe (both physically and emotionally) and nurturing environment where they can learn and have FUN!

Hello! I have over 20 years of experience in childcare. I’ve worked extensively in both homes and childcare settings and with a variety of ages. I’m passionate about early childhood education and birth to 5 are my favorite ages! I’m trained in Reggio Emilia inspired learning, and I believe in a true child centered approach. My language with children is always intentional and sounds similar to the gentle parenting techniques. This includes clear boundaries presented in a respectful, logical and consistent manner. I’m laid back and flexible, and most of all seek to have fun engaging with children! Early language development is a passion of mine as I have a background as a special education teacher who focused on verbal behavior. Many current references are available upon request. I look forward to meeting you!

Hi, my name is Sydney and I love working with children. I am currently a senior at Missouri Baptist University getting my Biomedical degree and Nursing degree. Once I graduate I will be working in pediatrics. I have always been great with kids and I can wait to work with them everyday while nursing. I have babysat since I was 14 and have never had a problem. I am a great listener, problem solver, and I’m very caring. I know CPR and have worked in a hospital for multiple years before, I have also coached soccer and volleyball. I have worked with kids on many different levels and have loved every minute of it. I can help with anything you need around the house and ai love adventures, I feel like taking a child to a park or museum is always better than just sitting in front of a screen although I always enjoy a movie night. I am very patient and take my time teaching a child to make sure they really understand, I never want to rush through anything, not with coaching or just basics things like helping with homework. I would love to start babysitting more and love working with all ages of children:)
