A little bit about me
Hi there! My name is Kelli and I am a very dedicated and experienced teacher and caregiver. It is a privilege to work with children in some of the most important developmental stages of their lives! I love the idea of a one on one setting where I can really bond and share my knowledge with a family. I can’t wait to get to know you all, but here is a bit about my professional background.
I have a teaching certificate from the state of Missouri for Secondary Education. However when the pandemic hit, I took the chance and switched to the younger years! I personally have 13 nieces and nephews and worked at an after school program from high school into college as well as nannied though college. I began working as an Infant/Toddler teacher in March of 2021. In March of 2023 I moved to St. Louis and began work as a Montessori Lead Guide in June of 2023.

"Kelli connected so well with our son! She has a great knowledge of working with different ages, and did a nice job connecting with parents as well. We loved knowing that Kelli was at our son’s school even though he wasn’t always with her, it was reassuring to know she was nearby! I definitely recommend Kelli as a nanny & we miss her here!"

I genuinely love kids and I love fun I try to make up things when it comes to children and get to know them as I work with them. I wanna go to college and take up classes to to be a RN so I can help others but I wanna start off small. I do have experience with kids as I do with my family’s children along with my own siblings. I grew up raising my siblings so it’s kinda a knack for me.

A little bit about me
I am a dedicated Newborn and Infant Care Professional (NICP) with five years of experience supporting children of all ages and developmental needs. I am CPR and First Aid certified and have completed specialized training in infant and early childhood care, allowing me to create nurturing, safe, and developmentally rich environments. My childcare approach is Montessori-inspired and child-led, encouraging curiosity and independence within consistent, loving boundaries. I follow each baby’s natural rhythm while offering gentle guidance that builds comfort and confidence. I enjoy supporting developmental play, baby-led weaning, and healthy sleep routines, and I’m also happy to help with light housekeeping, meal prep, child’s laundry, and toy or clothing rotation to keep routines smooth. Families describe me as patient, dependable, and genuinely invested in each child’s well-being, and I would love to bring that same dedication to your family.

A little bit about me
Hi, my name is Kayleigh and I have been working as a full time nanny for over fifteen years. It is truly the best job I have ever had and I put my heart into it. My nanny style is parental unit and I am a big proponent of the Montessori method and nature based learning. I strive to create a routine and schedule that focuses on reaching milestones and helps children grow to be happy and healthy. My free time is often spent crafting, going on nature walks/hiking, reading and spending quality time with my family and friends. I am by nature a bit of a clean freak and enjoy organization projects.

Hi! My name is Liv Johnson, and I’m 21 years old. I’m currently studying Child and Family Development at STLCC, with plans to graduate in 2026. I’m a full-time nanny, but I have a few days each week that are open—if you’re still looking for child care or interested in a nanny share, I’d love to talk!
I’m also teaching myself Mandarin and hold certifications in Water Safety for Parents and Caregivers and Adult, Child, and Baby First Aid/CPR/AED. I have previous experience working at a veterinary hospital, so I’m comfortable with animals of all shapes and sizes. In my free time, I enjoy crocheting and embroidering, which inspire creative activities for kids.
I live in the Tower Grove area but have a driver’s license and a reliable car, so I’m happy to travel. If I sound like a good fit for your family, please message me—I’d love to chat!
