"Amina came and helped us out when our babysitter canceled last minute. She was great with our kids. Even our 11 month old son who has stranger anxiety warmed up to her."

Taylor $15 per hour for 1 child
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. No he trabajado de niñera desde que era adolescente, pero tengo 4 años de experiencia en el sector de atención medica, donde he cuidado a pacientes de todas las edades. Estoy certificada en RCP y soporte vital básico (SVB).

Hi my name is Izzy! I’m 30, living in Lenexa with my husband and two fur babies! We have a 2 year old English cream golden retriever named Willow and rescued an Australian Shepard mutt named Smudge from KC pet Project back in August last year. I work as an open heart surgical nurse and it’s the best job I’ve ever had. I love caring for others and that extends to my love for animals. I’ve had dogs my whole life growing up which has lead to a deep love for them. I spent many summers caring for neighbors home, animals, plants, ect. growing up when I would have a break from school. I would be honored to be considered to take care of your animals or any needs you may have. Please feel free to ask any questions and hope to work with you soon!
