A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Christian Toth! I am currently a Graphic Design major at KU looking for an opportunity to care for some little humans while having some awesome and creative adventures! I have experience working with smaller children from 3-12+, where we would play video games, watch movies, and create interesting paintings. I currently have a dog at home so I am always open for a play date and understand the values of having fun responsibly. I am an amature cook but always understand the dietary needs of others, whether that be vegan, vegetarian, allergies or any other food exceptions. Thanks and I hope we can work together soon!

A little bit about me

Hey families!
My name is Tara. I have been babysitting many different families for quite some time now, and I really enjoy it! In my past time, I have babysat kids anywhere from 8 months-10 years old. I did light house cleaning, pretty much anything the parents asked me to do! If you leave me a list of stuff I will get it done by the time you are home. I also usually try to get the kids involved in the cleaning to help try to get them motivated to clean up after themselves, but we all know how that goes ;). I love being around kids and getting to know them!
