Hello! My name is Kea. I am 28 and am a former elementary teacher who is passionate about child development! I taught for 4 years, and before that I was a teacher's assistant for 6 years as well as a babysitter for 4 years. While I have moved away from the teaching field for more of a work-life balance, my passion for child development has continued on. I would love to continue helping children grow and learn without making it a full time basis. In my free time I love reading, scrapbooking, and spending time outdoors.
Hi my name is Abrianna, I am currently working as a public school teacher in preschool. I am offering childcare and tutoring. I am a certified teacher with a specialty in ages birth to age 8. I am also a certified teacher for special education ages birth to 8. I have experience working in daycare, preschool and early elementary school. I am familiar with watching multiple children at once and am familiar with working with neurodivergent children. I have a finger print clearance card, and am CPR and First aid trained.
Hello! As a teenager, I lifeguarded for a very busy water park, and I learned to govern a child's behavior to keep them safe as well as interact with them in a manner that keeps the tone playful, yet informative. I taught countless swim classes over the summers with young children to pre-teens, and I found that maintaining a relational bond with kids makes the learning process stronger. I grew up with siblings over ten years younger than me and have spent their early years managing their behavior, learning habits, and their fun. I have also babysat for neighbors, especially during high school and after high school. I would love to find a family to connect with and provide meaningful, engaging care for!
I am looking for occasional baby sitting work. I have experience working in a preschool and childcare center. I also do kids ministry at church. I have mainly worked in toddler rooms (age 1-2) and preK.
“Jennifer was wonderful with my boys! She kept both of them happy & they loved playing with her. They were well-fed, loved and sleeping soundly when I got home. Will definitely book with her again! ”
