Looking for work as a babysitter or nanny

Meet Kellis

  • Comfortable with pets

**I'm brand new here, so my photo is still being approved!** With almost 17 years in the field, I am a loving nanny, babysitter, and educator who enjoys her job, and truly enjoys sharing time with children. I am currently seeking a full-time nanny position, but I am open to having a couple part-time positions/evening and weekend babysitting. When possible, I enjoy supporting families with house work such as dishes, laundry, meal prep, or other tasks. I work hard for families, and love helping with things that can be extremely stressful when juggling multiple schedules. I'm extremely experienced with ages from birth through school age, and bring with me a great deal of personal insight and knowledge. I'm certified in CPR and first aid, and am more than happy to do background checks and provide contacts for references. I bring with me a passion for both learning and sharing knowledge. Read more I show children my own personal love for singing and natural sciences, but I aim to offer a balanced 'curriculum' that discovers the many learning areas through explorative play. While our activities and adventures will naturally vary based on age (and season), I hope to always pass on an appreciation and respect for nature and the outdoors, music and art, asking questions, and very importantly, for each other and ourselves. 🙌🏼 My goal is to develop a trusting relationship to promote confidence and independence in all children. I want them to know they are loved and safe to try new things, and that when they need it, they will find the positive examples and supportive encouragement to keep trying. It's important for me to build strong relationships with parents as well as children, and I hope to work with families who also value open communication. Thank you so much for reading, and please reach out if you feel like we might be a good match! Kellis

Kellis was our nanny for both our kids and she is our top choice for babysitting now that our kids are in school. She has been absolutely wonderful with our kids. When our kids were babies and toddlers she taught them how to be independent, thoughtful, caring humans. She brought joy (and music) into our house and made our lives much happier and better. We highly recommend Kellis!
