LOOKING FOR: a nanny/babysitting opportunity with a kind family who values trust , communication and quality care! Hi, my name is Amya! I recently graduated high school and am currently a nursing student at Saint Louis University 💙🤍with hopes of becoming a pediatric nurse. I have always had a passion for caring for and connecting with children, and I love creating a fun, safe, and encouraging environment where they can learn and be themselves. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing creative games, exploring new activities, or simply being a supportive role model, I enjoy making every child feel valued and cared for. I’m excited to bring my nurturing personality, responsibility, and love for working with youth to your family!👩🏽⚕️🧸♥️
Hello I'm Clara! I'm a Sophomore at WashU studying psychology and I grew up in STL. I have been babysitting for the past six years and I have worked with many families. I have experience with all ages of children from infant to elementary school! I have experience pet sitting for cats and dogs. I love animals and I have two cats and a dog of my own!
Hello, my name is Kenzie and I am a law student in my final year of school. Growing up in Utah and as the eldest in a big family, I grew up around kids and grew up babysitting often. I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids since I was 12 years old. I am 12 and 14 years apart from my youngest siblings and helped raise them since they were newborns. In college at the University of Utah, I tutored kids from Korea in English, where I enjoyed making assignments, homework, and developing unique ways of teaching to fit their learning style. In my free time outside of school, I enjoy reading, knitting, cooking, and hanging out with friends.
I have 4 years of childcare experience for ages 3 and up, I am CPR and First Aid certified. I enjoy playing indoor and outdoor games with kids and I am willing to help with homework and provide basic house cleaning. I’m passionate about making a positive impact on children’s lives and I am comfortable enforcing household rules.
Hi! My name is Laura. I'm a 50 year old St. Louis native who recently moved back after spending the past 30 years living in different parts of the country. I work full time Mon-Fri, but I am available most evenings & weekends for child, senior, & pet care. I am very comfortable with all ages, including newborns, as well as any & all types of pets. I was a steady babysitter for several families throughout my middle school & high school years, & I've been a regular fixture in the lives of my niece & 3 nephews as they've grown up. Additionally, I've worked with developmentally disabled adults, and I've taught students aged 11-14 years in public school. I love playing games, reading books and/or making up stories, & doing hands-on activities (cooking, arts & crafts, Legos, etc.) I'm happy to do whatever's needed to best help your family!
