A little bit about me

Hey mamas, dads, and guardians! I’m available and hoping to find a consistent gig that’s about 15-25 hrs/week. Preferably something during the daytime hours Monday-Friday. My rate is $20/hr but I am always willing to discuss. I also don’t mind doing light housework, meal prep, cooking and other things around the house as needed. Otherwise, I prefer to be actively engaged with your child(ren.) I have extensive experience, especially with wee little ones, and can provide references! I am a-okay with pets, and I am also a mama to bigger kiddos as well so I do it all. Please feel free to reach out if you would like to chat.

Paula D. - Seeking Work in Lawrence

A little bit about me

My name is Paula. I’d love to help a family in need of responsible care for their child. I’m patient, reliable, sensible, tidy, calm and with a special eye on detaiIs. I love animals in case there are pets at home. I have a car if that is required. And I love Arts and Nature, so useful subjects to enhance the communication/rapport with children. That also means that I will be “connected” to Arts, Nature and the present moment shared with the child rather than looking at my phone while taking care of that person who deserves my respect.

A little bit about me

Hi! My legal name is Allison but I go by Alex. i have been babysitting for as long as I can remember. I have been working in child care for about 2 years now. Started working at Building Blocks in August 2018 and moved to La petite academy in August of 2019, I just recently put my 2 weeks in at La petite and am trying to babysit from my home. The reason I say from my home is because I don't drive. I was in an accident about a year ago and haven't been able to drive without being in fear since. I do home tours for people who are interested and I have references! I do have pets, 2 cats and a dog, but the dog is always put up until he is comfortable with the child, and the cats choose to stay away from kiddos. I do know cpr and trained with first aid. My last day at the daycare is September 23rd, so I will be available to work after that! however I'm getting married in October so there are some days I won't be able to work, but hopefully that won't be a problem!
