Claire H., Nanny in Defiance, MO 63341 with 4 years of paid experience

I'm a childcare provider with a deep passion for nurturing children's growth and development. My patient and creative nature allows me to engage children with educational and imaginative activities, making their time in my care enjoyable and stimulating. With 4 years of daycare experience, CPR certification, Safe Sleep certification and 11 hours of Early Child Development coursework, I'm well-equipped to handle up to 4 children of various ages (0-11). I prioritize open communication with parents, providing regular updates and using their preferred method of contact. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules and ensuring a safe and nurturing environment. From outdoor games to board games and puzzles, I love participating in a variety of activities that promote learning and fun. I'm also willing to assist with light housekeeping. In addition to children, I also have a love for animals and have two dogs of my own. I would love to help with your family's childcare needs.

Claire was an extremely professional young lady who always came prepared with activities every day for her and my daughter to do together. She was extremely close with my daughter and tailored their activities to what my kid liked to do, whether it be painting or color, arts and crafts etc. You will not go wrong with hiring Claire as a babysitter; she became family to us, and she did a lot more than any hired babysitter might do: she truly loved our daughter. Claire took great care in nurturing her young mind, and went out of her way to make our daughter feel special. She was our babysitter for roughly two years until we moved away. You will not find a better or more nurturing person to care for your children.

Kelly was great with our two little ones. She showed up exactly on time. The kids both asked to play with "Kewwey" after she left.

Katie C., Nanny in Defiance, MO 63341 with 3 years of paid experience

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 have availability throughout the week during the day, evenings, and nights through the first week of August. I also have availability during the weekends, outside of what I have listed. 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!

Sarah K., Nanny in Defiance, MO 63341 with 3 years of paid experience

I graduated from Saint Louis University with a B.S. in English and minor in Catholic Studies in the spring of 2024. I love working with kids as they tend to make life interesting in unexpected and novel ways! Who wouldn’t want their joy? I have worked as a nanny for three families whose children have ranged from 2 to 10 years of age. I have experience with potty training, maintaining routines, engaging kids in age appropriate activities, snack and lunch times, and buckling kids into front and rear facing car seats with 5-point harnesses. I work closely with families to ensure I follow their parenting style, discipline standards, and routine. Communication is a vital element of my job. Outside of nannying, I have taught reading and phonics to students of all ages with disabilities at a tutoring center called Lindamood-Bell. I also have experience working as a substitute teacher. I love working with children, specifically students, because passing on knowledge is so fulfilling for me. I am looking for more experience working one-on-one with children in order to prepare me to homeschool my own future kids. Thank you for viewing my profile!

Zainab S., Nanny in Defiance, MO 63341 with 2 years of paid experience

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.
