Hi! Thank you for taking the time to check out my profile. I have several years of experience nannying children of all ages — infants, toddlers, and school-age kids alike. I hold a Master’s in Social Work with a certificate in Clinical Mental Health, which gives me a strong grounding in child development, emotional regulation, and creating a supportive, structured environment for kids to thrive. I also have a Bachelor’s in Fine Art with an emphasis in painting, so I love bringing creativity and hands-on art projects into everyday care. I’d love to bring warmth, patience, and genuine attentiveness to your family. I’m happy to chat more about your specific needs!

- I have years of experience (since I was 10/11) taking care of children of all ages and animals (dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, etc) - I have a car, and am comfortable driving wherever I am needed, whether it is for errands or taking kids somewhere. - I can cook and help with homework! I’m comfortable with making bottles (breast milk, formula, or whole milk) and with changing diapers and dealing with blowouts/changing clothes. - I worked at a daycare in Lenexa for almost a year, primarily in the Infant room (ages 4 months to a year) but also helped out in the Toddler rooms (1 year- 2 1/2 years) as well as with ages 3 years and up. - I’m currently a nanny to a 15 month old and have been watching her since she was 6 months old. - I am CPR and First Aid certified. - I am currently studying Psychology at the University of Kansas and am primarily located in Lawrence. My schedule and availability changes each semester.

Abbey is wonderful with my 4 year old son. Communication is always the best and she is flexible with times and even location. I’ve have had her watch my son weekly since the first time she was hired. Will continue working with her!

Hello:) My name is Marissa and I’m in search of a part-time nannying position to help me with aviation school. I’m currently working part-time as a Lead Pre School Teacher and have had 5+ years of experience with kids aged 4 months old to 12 years old. I enjoy cleaning and am more than willing to do housework if needed. (Laundry, dishes, meal prepping, vacuum, mopping, just general tidying up.) I also have my own SUV that can fit anywhere from 5-7 and my license. I love using play based learning to make education fun for kiddos. I love discovering new ways to teach and to make things fun!! I love music, art, the outdoors, sensory play, and more. Due to me working part-time as a teacher, I’m only available Mondays & Wednesdays (any times) and Thursdays until 1:00 PM. ONE MORE THING: I slightly allergic to cats, but am usually okay if there aren’t more than 2 in the household. Otherwise, I get really stuffy and can’t breathe :( If you have any questions, feel free to reach out :)

I love babysitting because it gives me the chance to connect with kids and be a positive part of their day. I enjoy playing games, helping with homework, and watching their personalities grow. It's rewarding to know that I'm helping families while also building trust and creating fun, safe moments for the children. Every day is a little different, and that keeps it exciting! I have several experiences that have helped me become a confident and responsible babysitter. I’ve cared for children of different ages, from toddlers to pre-teens, both during the day and in the evenings. My responsibilities have included preparing meals, helping with homework, organizing activities, and following bedtime routines. I’ve also handled light housework and made sure the kids stayed safe and entertained. Through these experiences, I’ve learned how to stay calm under pressure, communicate clearly with both kids and parents, and adapt to each child’s unique needs and personality. I have several valuable skills and training that make me a reliable and capable babysitter. I’m certified in First Aid and CPR, which means I know how to respond quickly and effectively in emergency situations. I’m also a certified CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant), so I have a strong background in health care, safety, and providing attentive, compassionate care. Along with my medical training, I’m patient, responsible, and great at communicating with both kids and parents. I’m also skilled at keeping children engaged through fun activities while ensuring they stay safe and comfortable at all times.

Hello! My name is Lily Witkowski. I am an outgoing, dependable, and responsible individual who recently graduated from the University of Kansas with my master's degree. I currently work full-time as the Digital Content Manager for the Kansas City Sports Commission, but I enjoy babysitting in my free time and have continued doing so throughout college and beyond. A little about my experience: I have over eight years of babysitting and nannying experience caring for children ranging from newborns to 13 years old. I first gained experience as a camp counselor and neighborhood babysitter before becoming a trusted nanny for multiple families. Building long-term relationships with families has been one of the most rewarding parts of babysitting, and I am more than happy to provide references upon request. I am CPR and First Aid certified, have reliable transportation, and am comfortable helping with a variety of responsibilities, including meal preparation, bedtime routines, transportation to activities, light housekeeping, homework help, and creating fun, engaging activities for children. My availability is primarily evenings and weekends, with occasional weekday availability depending on my work schedule. I strive to be flexible whenever possible. If you're interested in learning more or think I may be a good fit for your family, I'd love to chat. Please feel free to send me a message. Thank you! 😊

Hi! I’m a PhD student in Clinical Child Psychology with a master’s degree in psychology and extensive experience working with children and families. I’m also a licensed foster mom, so I am CPR and First Aid certified and have spent years supporting children through behavioral, sleep, and toileting challenges in both clinical and caregiving settings. Although it’s been a few years since I regularly babysat, I’m nearing the end of my PhD and have more flexibility in my schedule again. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and creating a safe, supportive, and fun environment for them. I bring a calm, patient approach and a strong understanding of child development. I’d love to support your family however I can!

My name is Ajuné, I'm 23, and I'm a student at Cornell. I'm majoring in Psychology in order to become a clinical child psychologist. I have a lot of experience as a babysitter, nanny, and preschool assistant teacher. I've always been great with younger children and have felt like they gravitate towards me. Their sweet, innocent energy makes me feel at peace. I had my first recurrent, independent babysitting gig at about 11 with a 2-year-old boy, and my first job with a 1-year-old girl a year later, both of which went very well. Since then, I've babysat multiple other little girls and boys of various ages (2 months+), needs (including special needs), and personalities. I have experience sitting up to 3 children at a time but have supervised up to 12 as an assistant preschool teacher. I look forward to serving your family!
