Kamryn H., Child Care in Strafford, MO 65757 with 2 years of paid experience

As a natural caregiver with 2 years of experience, I'm passionate about providing a safe, nurturing environment where children can thrive and learn. My background includes attending college to become a Respiratory Therapist. My patient and calm demeanor, coupled with my creativity and friendly approach, allows me to connect easily with children and build strong relationships. I believe in fostering a structured environment while also allowing children to explore their interests. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules and enjoy a variety of games, from outdoor sports to educational activities that promote learning. Beyond childcare, I'm happy to assist with tasks such as cooking, meal preparation, carpooling, and light housekeeping.

Emmi K., Child Care in Strafford, MO 65757 with 8 years of paid experience

My most recent long-term babysitting job was for a family with three kids and a dog. I worked at a summer camp every summer for 4 years, watching girls anywhere from age 5 to 18. I am first aid and CPR certified, and have completed classes and training courses on child development. I taught summer school for elementary special education for 2 months. Although I do not have a background check directly with this site, I work as a substitute teacher and have a background check with the school system.

Hi! My name is Emmy and for as long as I can remember, helping, caring and supporting kids has been my passion!! I have a strong background in children’s education, completing an internship at a preschool + early learning development center, I serve in the children’s ministry of my church, and I have years of experience with babysitting. I stepped away to focus full time on cosmetology school, and now as a new hairstylist, I want to get back into my dearly missed passion of caring of your kiddos! In my free time, I love to cook, read, okay pickleball and spend time with my fiance and friends.

Chloe G., Child Care in Strafford, MO 65757 with 2 years of paid experience

Hello! I’m Chloe, a senior at Strafford High and reliable and passionate childcare provider. Although I have two years of paid babysitting experience I have four years of volunteer experience for my churches youth program. I have worked with infants all the way to 7th graders. I believe in creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment where kids feel supported. Whether it’s organizing arts and crafts, playing in the backyard, or helping with homework, my goal is to keep children active and smiling. I pride myself on being proactive and maintaining open communication with parents. I am grateful for the opportunity to meet your family and hopefully make your evenings a little less stressful. Since I have school evenings is my main open free time on weekdays, but I am open every weekend. And once I graduate I’ll be able to work any hours! (Graduation this May 7th).
