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.

my name is Chloe I’m a 19 year old female I currently work at Hannam law Monday and Friday. I love children I’ve always grown up having to watch over my younger cousin so I have experience with what you would describe as difficult children lol and I have family members with special needs the I have watched over also. I’ve baby sat for people in my neighborhood and growing up I learned to love watching children. My sister is a behavior therapist so I’ve learned a lot from her and me and her watch a young boy names Owen on the weekends he’s taught me a lot of patients considering he has more challenged than other children because of his autism. I’m looking for another job and I thought being a nanny/baby sitter would be a good fit because I feel like I’m good at caring for all types of children with high energy, low energy, special needs, and not only that I could argue that every kid I’ve ever watched would ask me to watch them again in a second. Your child’s safety is my 1st job, education, organization and fun second!

Hello! I’m Samantha, and I love babysitting because it gives me the chance to support kids in a safe, positive, and fun environment. I enjoy reading with children, playing games, and encouraging creativity, as well as helping with homework and daily routines. I’ve worked with children of all ages, including infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids, and I’m comfortable managing multiple children at once. I’m also a nursing student and certified phlebotomist, so families can feel confident that I take safety seriously. I’m trained in CPR/First Aid, detail-oriented, and calm under pressure. Parents I’ve worked with describe me as dependable, warm, and responsible. I’m happy to help with transportation, meal prep, bedtime, and light household tasks, and I always aim to create a positive, engaging experience for each child.

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:)
