Koi Olathe
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hello, I go by Koi and I'm looking for a part time nanny/sitter position for 25-30 hours a week between the Olathe and Lawrence, KS areas. I have two years of floater experience in childcare with toddlers and babies and absolutely adore my kiddos! I get 16 hours of annual health & safety and developmental training, and will continue to do so to ensure I can provide the best environment for your child. I'm quiet, attentive, calm-natured, but value firm boundaries and redirection, and like to create a child-led environment fostering independence. I take "lead by example" to heart and value modeling above all else. As a natural-born learner and academic, I am always looking to educate myself on, understand, and find new ideas on supporting your child's development—cognitive, social, emotional, physical, language...they all matter! I also love outdoor play and using nature to explore creative opportunities, but some of my other favorites are reading and sensory play! I love to take inspiration from the book Sustainable Play. I'm not a parent, but I understand how important your child(ren) is/are to you. Above all, they are my top priority, and I hope my passion for children will be seen in my care for them! *I can offer references from co-workers and professors as requested.

Soraya Olathe
$21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Soraya, I’m 19 years old, and I truly enjoy spending time with kids and helping them learn and grow. I’ve been caring for children from newborns up to age 11 for the past year, and I love creating a calm, safe, and fun environment for them. I’m a patient and imaginative person, and I love using creativity to keep kids engaged — whether that’s through storytelling, games, crafts, or outdoor play. I’m also very respectful of household rules and routines, and I always communicate clearly with parents through whatever method they prefer, whether it's texts, calls, or quick updates at the end of the day. I have some college experience, and I’m comfortable caring for up to two children at a time. Having a positive impact on a child’s day means a lot to me, and I’d love the chance to bring my calm energy and creativity into your home!

Olathe
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Kasiya I’m a 21-year-old college student at Johnson County Community College, currently pursuing my degree in Respiratory Care with the goal of becoming an RRT. I was born and raised in Overland Park, KS, and have been working in childcare for 7 years in a variety of settings—including summer camps, daycares, after-school programs, and in-home care. I’m comfortable caring for children of all ages, from newborns to teens (0–14 years old), and I’m also great with pets. I’m CPR certified and approved to supervise groups of up to 10 children at a time. My experience includes homework help, arts & crafts, planning fun group activities, and keeping a safe and positive environment. I’m also happy to assist with light cleaning, meal prep, and household tasks to help things run smoothly. Families describe me as dependable, patient, and energetic, and I love creating a safe, fun, and engaging atmosphere for every child in my care!

Kasiya was great! She watched our daughter and was very reliable, a great communicator and our gal seemed to have a good time. I would have her back again. I recommend her!

$16 per hour for 1 child

I’ve worked with children of all ages, but I have lots of experience with school age children! I have been babysitting since I was around 10 years old. My aunt owned a daycare company and so I helped her after school for many years. As a senior in high school I was also a teachers aide for a kindergarten class so I have experience creating activities and helping with school work A little about myself, I am currently a senior at the University of Saint Mary in Leavenworth. There I am a part of the swim team, honors program, theology club, prelaw club and more. I was also previously a lifeguard so I have very extensive CPR, First Aid, and Emergency training. Let me know if you have any more questions, thank you for your time!
