Find a last-minute babysitter in Olivette, MO

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 over 25 years of experience working with children in various settings from training adults who serve children birth to 3, to being a nanny caring for four children. Currently, and for past five years, I have been working with middle school children with special needs specifically, Autism. I have extensive experience with children birth-3 and significant experience with ADHD and behaviors. I'm a few courses shy of my Bachelors degree in Early Childhood Education and have significant amounts of training in various areas in education. I took a break from school to support my stepson who struggled in school. I value all children and their abilities. I enjoy working with children and believe all children should be encouraged to be kind, good, human beings and I believe we, as adults working with children are integral in making that happen.

I've worked with small children since age 14, as a nursery assistant. I was VP of the PTO board of an elementary school for 3.5 years, and also school mom during my time there. I most recently spent 3 years as a personal caretaker of an elderly blind man. I've always been great with those young in age and those up in age. I have an old soul but I'm a child at heart.

I have experience working with infants and toddlers in a daycare setting, have raised 2 children and am a lifelong equestrian, giving riding lessons to children and adults. I have several months of pet sitting experience with dogs, cats and chickens. As a highly sensitive empath, I have patience for challenging people, pets and situations. I am a natural teacher and have a youthful heart. I am very organized and provide a peaceful environment for those I care for,

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!
