Hello, My name is Deanne and I live in Leavenworth KS, I am 21yrs old and I love pets and kids alike!!
My experience with children starts with being the oldest of 8 children as well as nannying/ babysitting for families and friends when they need it. I also have been serving and volunteering in my church's nursery and kid hallway since I was 12! I also have experience with pets since I grew up with dogs and cats all of my life but recently I have dove into the realm of poultry/waterfowl so that's a bonus! I also have worked in a doggy daycare for a couple years so I know the difference in right and wrong behaviors/actions and I love going on walks with pets
One of my hobbies is cooking so I can cook as much food for a meal or as little for a snack! I love being outside and talking walks and doing park runs, I am not that brilliant when it comes to crafts but I can come up with some ideas to help entertain your littles
Hi! My name is Bella Simoes, and I'd love to get to know you and your kid(s)! I'm from Shawnee, Kansas, and I attended Saint James Academy in Lenexa. I've always loved getting to work with children, whether it's in a kid's zone at my gym or teaching swim lessons, I've enjoyed getting to engage whenever I can. I plan on going into Elementary Education as well, so getting these opportunities would be wonderful! I can't wait to meet you:).
Hello! My name is Mary and I have about 7 years of paid childcare experience. I’m mature but I love to have fun like going to the movies, mall, zoo, carnivals and so much more. I’m not afraid of getting dirty despite being a bit of clean freak. I have reliable transportation and can drive kiddos around. I truly love kids and helping parents out. Raising children is hard work with little off time; let me help! You deserve a break and a reset without having to worry about your kiddo(s).
I'm looking for Casual/temporary, Part-time employment.
I can travel a few suburbs/towns away from Stilwell for work.
