Kaleb H., Nanny in Lexington, KY 40509 with 1 year of paid experience

Starting Rate: $16/hour: I’m currently offering childcare services starting at $16 per hour as I build more formal professional experience in the childcare field. I have about 10 years of informal childcare experience caring for family members and have experience caring for children of different ages, including infants. Cooking & Meal Preparation: I’m very proficient and comfortable in the kitchen and can prepare a variety of meals and foods for children and families. I can make dishes such as fried rice, omelets, and other homemade meals, and I’m comfortable following recipes or preparing meals based on a child’s preferences and a family’s needs. I’m happy to help with age-appropriate meal and snack preparation as part of my childcare responsibilities. Caring, Dependable & Responsible: I’m a caring, dependable, and responsible childcare provider who understands the patience, attention, responsibility, and safety that children need. Although my childcare experience has primarily been informal, I’m looking forward to gaining more formal experience and continuing to grow my skills in this field. My previous work experience has also helped me develop strong leadership, communication, organization, and safety skills. As a manager at Firehouse Subs, I supervised and trained teenage employees while making sure daily operations ran smoothly. I also worked as a computer operator at Creative Liquid Coatings, where I worked around and helped oversee adult employees while ensuring work was completed correctly and safely. I’m patient, attentive, and willing to learn what works best for each family. My goal is to provide children with a safe, comfortable, positive, and nurturing environment while giving parents peace of mind. I take pride in being someone families can rely on and am excited to bring my experience, cooking skills, and responsible work ethic into professional childcare.

Kaleb did a great job watching our daughter and baby boy. He followed all the instructions my wife and I gave him and really went above and beyond. He even helped clean around the house, cooked for the kids, and left the kitchen cleaner than it was when he arrived. We really appreciated how dependable and helpful he was. We would definitely recommend his services and will be using him again if we need someone to watch the kids.

Ashley K., Nanny in Lexington, KY 40509 with 3 years of paid experience

Hi! I'm a dedicated nanny with over 3 years of hands-on experience caring for newborns and toddlers. I am also in nursing school in hopes to be in the nicu working as an RN! I love kids and everything about being around them and their creative minds! I thrive to create nurturing, engaging, and developmentally appropriate environments for young children. My approach is a healthy mix of patience, creativity, and structure whether it's soothing a newborn, planning sensory play, or helping toddlers reach important milestones while learning hands on. I’m passionate about making a positive impact, not just with the children I care for, but in supporting parents and families as a whole. I look forward to bringing warmth, energy, and reliability to your family! I can’t wait to meet you and your littles!

Tara was wonderful, and our kiddo asked when she could come back. Definitely child-recommended. We had no worries, and will definitely be contacting her first for our next date night.

1I AM AN EXTENSIVELY, EXPERIENCED, REPUTABLE SITTEE FOR CHILDREN FROM INFANCY THROUGH TEEN YEARS WITH ALL LEVELS OF DEVELOPMENTAL MILESTONES. I HOLD A BACHELOR'S IN PSYCHOLOGY WITH A SPECIALTY IN EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION. I AS WELL HAVE DIVERSIFIED EXPERIENCE CARING FOR AND WORKING WITH CHILDREN THAT ARE PHYSICALLY, DEVELOPMENTALLY AND PSYCHOLOGICALLY CHALLENGED. MY PASSION LIES IN NURTURING & MENTORING CHILDREN & HAVING BEEN BLESSED TO HAVE BEEN AFFORDED REWARDING OPPORTUNI- TIES TO WORK HANDS-ON WITH THE VARIABLE DYNAMICS OF THE FAMILIES I HAVE SERVED. THIS HAS ENABLED ME TO BETTER UTILIZE & APPLY MY EDUCATIONAL SKILLS & THOROUGHLY GAIN A DEDICATED, MORE PERSON-CENTERED EXPERIENCE & UNDERSTANDING OF THE APPLIED PRINCIPLES THAT PROMOTE A CHILD'S HEALTHY SENSE OF COGNITIVE & PSYCHOSOCIAL DEVELOPMENT. I ENJOY STAYING ACTIVE & ENCOURAGING POSITIVE, CREATIVE ACTIVITIES THAT ARE FUNDAMENT- ALLY SAFE & AS WELL PROVIDE REWARDING & AGE APPROPRIATE EXPERIENCES. I UNDERSTAND THE SIGNIFICANCE IN MAINTAINIING OPEN, COLLABORATIVE RAPPORT IN DEVELOPING A STRONG PARTNE- SHIP WITH PARENTS. I HAVE FOUND THAT JUST AS IMPORTANT, IS THE ABILITY TO REMAIN FEASIBLY FLEXIBLE & ADAPTABLE TO DIFFERENT PARENTING TECNIQUES AS WELL AS ROUTINE/SCHEDULE CHANGES. I ACKNOWLEDGE THAT SELF AWARENESS IN SAFETY CONSCIOUSNESS & THE ABILITY TO REMAIN NURTURING & COMPASION- ATE, BUT ALSO MAINTAIN THE ABILITY TO ENFORCE DISCIPLINE IS NECESSARY. I PRIDE MYSELF ON LIVING A HEALTHY, CHRISTIAN LIFESTYLE WHILE BALANCING A STABLE MORAL & WORK ETHIC. I HAVE THE AUTONOMY TO COMMIT TO BOTH SHORT AS WELL AS LONG-TERM POSITIONS & CAN PROVIDE A REPUTABLE RESUMÉ AS WELL AS CHARACTER REFERENCES UPON REQUEST.
