Find an after school nanny in Arnold, MO

Graduating highschool student in spring of 2024. I am going to SLU for their nursing program and I am looking for a full time summer job along with a part time school year job. I have worked as a camp counselor for 1 year, and I have 4+ years of baby sitting. I am comfortable with cats and dogs and I enjoy organizing. Additionally I have 45 hours of community service, over half being children related, and around 20 hours of job shadowing at an early childhood care center. Experience with special needs children and a valid drivers license.

I have worked in early childcare since January 2021 when I started at Kindercare. There, I taught all ages from pre-k down, having my own toddler classroom with 4 children on my own for a year, before settling with infants. I now work at Kol Rinah ECC as an infant teacher, as well as regularly babysitting for many of my families. Infants and toddlers are my favorite humans, but always stoked to hang out with big kids too! I am originally from the UK, where I got my degree in English Literature and Creative Writing. I have lived in St Louis since 2013. I am also a children's author with Penguin Random House, and I have a passion for childhood literature.

Hi! I have over 10 years of experience working with children of all ages and truly enjoy creating a safe, fun, and engaging environment for every child I care for. I'm reliable, patient, and always bring a calm and positive energy to the families I work with. In my full-time role, I work in a professional setting supporting kids' development, so I'm comfortable handling a variety of needs and personalities. I’m here to make things easier for both kids and parents!

If you need tutoring, special education support, or behavior support — let me help! If you need a calm adult who can support the entire family, from behavior plans, to deescalating arguments with children, transitions, and general emotional support- I'm here! I have a Bachelor's degree in Special Education and hold a Special Education K-12 license, with over 10 years of experience working with children and young adults from 6 weeks to 21 years old. I started working with children in high school through early childhood education classes and built my career from there — working in Montessori and Waldorf school settings, as a Special Education teacher, and most recently as a behavior specialist working across school, family, and clinical settings with children, teens, and adults. Working with children is my passion, and I have a particular love for supporting kids who are navigating behavior challenges. I've worked extensively with ADHD, ASD, SPD, and a wide range of cognitive and learning differences. I believe deeply in positive behavior supports and lead with social-emotional learning in everything I do — helping kids not just manage their behavior, but actually understand themselves better. I also bring over 13 years of experience supporting families directly in their homes, so I understand the full picture — not just the child, but the whole family system. Feel free to reach out with any questions, and I'm happy to connect you with references right away!

I am a friendly, dedicated child care provider and a current Graduate Student at Washington University in St. Louis, where I am pursuing my Master of Social Work (MSW). I bring nearly two years of professional experience from a child development center, where I spent my days caring for sweet infants and young children ranging from 6 weeks to 5 years old. This time taught me so much about infant care routines, early childhood milestones, and how to create a safe, stimulating space where little ones can thrive. Right now, I also work as a Therapist Intern at a local developmental trauma center, providing play therapy for wonderful children and youth aged 4 to 18. This clinical training allows me to bring a deeply supportive set of skills into my babysitting roles. I love using child-centered play techniques to build genuine rapport and help kids express their creativity. I am also highly skilled at co-regulation, which means I excel at helping children navigate big emotions or anxiety with a calm, gentle, and patient presence. My approach centers on strengths-based guidance, relying on warm connection and clear boundaries rather than reactive discipline.Whether it is soothing a newborn, engaging a toddler in fun sensory play, or connecting authentically with pre-teens, I easily adapt to exactly what your child needs to feel safe and happy. I am truly passionate about creating a nurturing, joyful environment where your kids feel completely seen, protected, and cared for. I would love the chance to support your family and look forward to connecting with you soon!
