Hi! My name is Olive, and I have several years of experience caring for children of all ages through nanying, regular babysitting, transportation help, and camp counseling. I currently work for multiple families on both a regular and occasional basis, helping with school pickups and drop-offs, after-school care, playtime, meals, routines, and keeping kids engaged in a safe and supportive environment. I previously worked as a nanny for a family of five, caring for three children ages 3-7, where I was heavily involved in daily routines, activities, meals, outings, and family trips. I've served as a junior camp counselor at Central Studio, helping young campers engage in creative activities while ensuring a fun and structured environment. Beyond childcare, I have experience in customer service and team leadership, working at Oberweis Dairy and as a manager at Snarf's Sandwiches. These roles have strengthened my responsibility, patience, and multitasking skills, which I bring to every babysitting job. I love working with kids, whether it's through creative play, outdoor activities, or helping with homework. Looking forward to meeting your family! - Olive

Hi! My name is Emma, and I’m 19 years old. I’m currently in college and plan to take Child Development classes as I work toward becoming a preschool teacher. Caring for children has always been something I’m passionate about, and I love helping them learn, grow, and feel safe. I have over 4 years of babysitting experience and am a certified nanny. I’m also certified in American Red Cross Adult & Infant CPR, First Aid, and AED, so your child’s safety is always my top priority. My training has prepared me to stay calm, attentive, and act quickly in any situation. As the oldest of four siblings, caring for children has always been second nature to me. I currently live with and help care for my 2-year-old cousin and my 3-month-old baby cousin (who’s actually the little one in my profile picture!). This has given me daily, hands-on experience with both toddlers and infants. I’m comfortable caring for multiple children, changing diapers, preparing bottles and meals, maintaining routines, helping with homework, and creating fun, educational, age-appropriate activities. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and structured environment where children feel supported, encouraged, and excited to learn. I strive to give parents complete peace of mind by being dependable, patient, attentive, and treating every child in my care like family. I look forward to connecting with your family and hope to become someone you can trust with your little ones!

Hi! My name is Merritt :) I am a recent graduate from Butler University with a BS in Biochemistry and a minor in Healthcare Administration. I am currently taking a gap year while applying to medical schools with goals to pursue a career as a physician scientist specializing in pediatric oncology. I am passionate about providing children with safe, joyful, and nurturing care. I have spent the last 7 years working with children of all ages--from newborns to teenagers-- and multiples (up to four children at any one time, including nanny share) as well as children with both medical and developmental special needs. My background working and volunteering in healthcare and childcare allows me to approach every situation with a level-head, confidence, and compassion. I am EMT-B trained as well as certified in CPR/First-Aid and "Stop the Silence" CSA prevention. I am happy to assist with meal prep, light cleaning, laundry, errands, and pet care. I love the outdoors, animals, crafts, puzzles, and creating hands-on activities that spark curiosity and creativity in kids. I am always looking for a long-term opportunity with a family who values warmth, structure, and strong communication; I am open to overnight positions (with negotiable rates). Please reach out with any questions--I'd love to learn more about your family's needs!

Carolina was exceptional! My family was visiting STL from out of state so hiring a babysitter was a scary thought. I read through Carolina’s reviews about how wonderful she was, and that paired with her au pair experience put my mind at ease. She was easy to communicate with, showed up on time, and immediately went to work making a playful connection with my toddler. She sent photos throughout the evening and my girls loved her. I would absolutely recommend Carolina, she is warm and nurturing, jumps right into action with the kiddos. Hire her!

I am a trusted caregiver, whom has cared for many children. I provide a fun, creative environment for your child to enjoy his/her day.I love to teach, and feel it is important to always lead by example, Children look to adults for examples of kindness,sharing and positive behavior. I really have a great time caring for children of all ages. I am aware of their stages of development, and get the biggest kick out of seeing the excitement on their face when the accomplish something new. I cook as organically as possible, and currently cook for a child with food allergies. Most importantly, I understand the importance of communication between myself and you as a parent, I am a big note taker, and I will keep you informed on your children's day. I think it is important to keep your home neat and tidy. Thank-You. Lynne

Lynne has been SO helpful for us. She always arrives a few minutes early to go over things for the day before I leave. She always leaves me notes from what went on that day, activities they did, how many poops he had, etc. My son is happy when I get home- so he must like her! I'm a new mom and she always has good tips to share with me too! She always picks up after herself, my son, and even helps me get the kitchen in order!

Hi! My name is Lexie and I’ve been in childcare since I was able! I started babysitting when I was 10 to my nieces and nephews before babysitting locally through my teen years to multiple families, all of whom I watched until I left my hometown. Once I turned 18 and left for college, I had a few families I watched part time through care.com. When I took a break from school in 2019, I became a nanny to a family with then 5, now 6 children. I currently work at a childcare facility (I have had a state background check, been fingerprinted, and completed both infant/child/adult CPR and first aid, as well as safe sleep courses) assisting ages 6 weeks-5 years and am a nanny to an almost one year old. I am also a personal care attendant a few evenings throughout the week. I have experience with children with behavioral needs as well as medical, I am well versed on anything your child may need! I am comfortable with any age, any amount, and any pets! I like to think of myself as a chaos coordinator of fun fanatics! Every day is an opportunity to learn a lesson or make a memory, and some days we’ll find a way to do both. I look forward to chatting more! I can send references upon request. Thank you for your time.

Lexi has watched our two kids (infant and three year old) twice now and has done a fantastic job both times. My three year old gets very excited when she hears Lexi is coming over, and she keeps the kids busy with activities and play rather than screens.

Hi, I’m Katie! I graduated from Creighton University in 2023 with a degree in psychology. I worked for a year as an assistant preschool teacher at a Montessori school working with kids aged 2.5-7, but I have worked with kids as old as 12. I currently work at Washington University as a research associate in the Psychiatry Department, and our study population is preteen girls. Currently, I am traveling but will be back sometime in October. I will definitely be around for the winter holidays if you need an extra hand! . The most amount of children I have babysat at once is 5, but I am most comfortable with the 1-3 range. When I am babysitting, I prefer to get the kids moving and doing something fun! Whether that’s making up a game or playing with toys they already have, they will have my full attention. I have tutored kids in the past, so I can help with homework and get snacks/meals ready for them. I can clean up around the house during my time with them as well. I used to be a lifeguard and I am CPR certified through my employer as well. Please message me if you’re interested in getting to know me better!
