A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Paris! 💕 I’m a loving, dependable childcare provider with 10+ years of hands-on experience in the St. Louis, Metro East area caring for little ones from infancy through school age.

I’ve had the pleasure of caring for private families, military families, and children in schools and classrooms—including children who needed a little extra support along the way. Every family and child has taught me something new, and I truly love being a part of their village. 🥰

My style is very much “fun Auntie with structure.” I want kids to feel comfortable, loved, and excited to see me, while still having routines, boundaries, age-appropriate activities, and the consistency they need to thrive.

I believe children deserve to feel safe, seen, heard, loved, and encouraged. My goal is to create that little “home away from home” feeling where they can learn, play, grow, and simply be themselves—while Mom and Dad have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. 💛

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I’ve worked for the State of Illinois. Public school before and after care, summer camp, full time nanny for a military family over the summer. Lots of babysitting!

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love keeping kiddos happy, engaged, and learning through fun, age-appropriate activities! Depending on their age, interests, and abilities, our days may include arts & crafts, reading, puzzles, educational games etc but when the suns out the fun’s out! Outdoors, we can enjoy playgrounds, walks, a day at the zoo! I love sidewalk chalk, bubbles, water play, and picnics. It’s great letting children have a say in what we do while following their family’s routines, schedules, and expectations. Some days are full of adventure, while others are about slowing down, relaxing, and enjoying a cozy day together!

The most important part about being a nanny...

My parents walk out of their door with a peace of mind their babies are loved, and safe with me.

My experience with special needs children...

I have hands-on experience ages infant-school-teenage with special needs and developmental differences, including autism, nonverbal communication, mobility challenges, and seizure protocols. 💛 I’m comfortable providing support with feeding, diapering, personal care, routines, communication, and keeping children engaged in activities that meet them where they are.
Most importantly, I’m very patient, and nurturing. I believe every child deserves to feel safe, understood, included, and celebrated for who they are! 🥰
