Jillian Columbia

Hi families! My name is Jillian, I am a junior accounting student at Mizzou so I am in Columbia most of the year! I have been babysitting since I was 15 and I do it full time when I am home in St. louis for STL sitter! I love engaging, playing and building relationships with the kids and families! I try to limit screen time when I am babysitting as much as possible and help with any chores while the kiddos are sleeping! I truly want to be as much of a help to your family as I can! My rates are 18 and hour for 1-3 children and 20 an hour for 4+ children. I have experience watching 5 children under 6 at once.

Jenna Columbia
$18 per hour for 1 child

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!

Presley Columbia
$18 per hour for 1 child

My name is Presley Kiser. I am a freshman at the University of Missouri and I am an elementary education major. I have lots of babysitting experience, I have had a consistent family who I babysat for quite some time, and I coached a youth soccer team, 2-5 and 5-7 year old age groups. I have also done volunteer work at local elementary schools through a program my high school offered, reading to kids and working on their reading and writing skills. I am very outgoing and bubbly. I love to watch movies, and do outside activities. I think I would make a great caregiver because I am playful, patient, creative and I have a lot of experience with kids. I have good communication skills and am very understanding of safety and creating a good environment for kids. I am also willing to do things around the house like cook, clean and run errands. I am also good with any animals as well!
