Hi, my name is Travion! I’m a responsible, caring, and dependable college student who enjoys working with children and creating a safe, positive, and fun environment for them. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident when choosing someone to care for their kids, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m patient, respectful, and always focused on making sure children feel comfortable, supported, and valued while they’re in my care. I enjoy helping kids stay active, being creative, playing games, assisting with homework, preparing simple meals, and making sure they have a great experience while their parents are away. My goal is to give parents peace of mind by providing reliable childcare they can trust. I will always communicate clearly, follow your family’s routines and expectations, and treat your children with the same care and respect I would want for my own family. I look forward to meeting your family and providing a safe, fun, and dependable babysitting experience!
Hi parents! Nurturing young minds is something I truly love, and my past 8 years of babysitting/nanny experiences have made me even more passionate about supporting families with reliable, fun, and caring childcare. I'm patient, creative, and easy to get along with. I'm comfortable caring for children of different ages and following your family's routines. I believe consistency is important, so I'm confident enforcing household rules while keeping a positive and supportive environment. I also make sure to keep open communication with parents and can provide updates in whatever way you prefer. I'm available 2-3 weekdays, based on what works best for your family, and most weekends that I am here in Columbia! If you're looking for a dependable and friendly babysitter, feel free to message me--I'd love to chat!
Hi! My name is Abby and I am a current junior at Mizzou studying to become a child life specialist! I love working with kids and have been babysitting for about 10 years, starting with my 2 younger siblings. I also have experience as a teaching assistant at a child development center and my full-time job at a preschool last summer! I am passionate about helping children grow to their full potential and want to be someone they can rely on! I am offering babysitting services! I can sit up to 4 children maximum, and have flexible availability. I love working with infants through pre-kindergarteners, but am open to work with up to 15 years. I have reliable transportation, am willing to do light cleaning and cooking, and care for your children in the best way that I can!

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
Hillary S., parent
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
Theresa M., parent
