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!
Hi parents I serve on Sunday in kids ministry at my church. As long with serving with those who have special needs I have helped with a couple camps this past summer along with helping at my church’s respite night that they host once a month I love kids I am CPR and FIRST AID certified
“Elizabeth was great with both my toddler and my 2 month-old! She came in with a day notice and stayed a little later as I needed the help. She got hands on as soon as she arrived, I will certainly be hiring again in the future!”
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.
Hello! My name is Taylor and I'm 23 years old. I’m new to Kansas City, and I just began a part-time job as an Emergency Room tech at University Health downtown. I’m also pursuing my Master’s in Public Health and will graduate in December. I graduated from Mizzou in 2025 with my bachelor’s degrees in Health Science and Spanish, and my ultimate goal is to become a Physician Assistant. I haven’t babysat since I was a teenager, but I have 4 years of healthcare experience where I’ve taken care of patients of all ages. I am certified in CPR and Basic Life Support. I even had the opportunity to volunteer in the NICU at University Hospital in Columbia, MO. I’m organized, reliable, and look forward to providing your child with safe and entertaining experiences. ¡Hola! Me llamo Taylor y tengo 23 años.

Me gradué de la Universidad de Misuri en 2025 con mis títulos universitarios en Ciencias de la Salud y español, y mi meta final es ser asistente médica.
