Hazel $17 per hour for 1 child

I am a senior in high school with a strong passion for working with children. I have taken a Child Development class for two years, where I have learned a lot about child growth and care. Through this class and other experiences, I have worked with children as young as three years old up to almost five-year-olds. I truly enjoy engaging with kids. I love playing with them, talking to them, and creating fun. In addition, I am actively involved at my church every Sunday, where I work with children aged 5 to 10. I help supervise activities, play with them, and encourage positive interaction. I also have experience caring for animals. I have three dogs that I have cared for over the past four years, and I also offer dog-walking services. This experience has taught me responsibility, patience, and attentiveness qualities I bring to all childcare responsibilities. Overall, my experience with children and animals has given me the skills to provide a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for any child.

Hi there! I recently moved here from Kansas City in January and will be interning at Bethesda Elementary to complete my graduate hours in Speech-Language Pathology. I have experience with infants 5 months to children 12 years of age. I worked for the University daycare for 3 years at the University of Central Missouri. I have references I can provide where I have taken families to play places, the park, and various appointments. I also enjoy arts and crafts, riding bikes, or watching a movie at the end of the night. I can’t wait to offer babysitting services. Feel free to reach me via text at[removed] 🥰
