Are you a college student in St. Louis looking to make money without sacrificing the time it takes to go to (and focus on) school?

TLC for Kids in St. Louis is looking to hire energetic, caring, and responsible caregivers to work as after school nannies for families in the greater St. Louis area.

The hours of an after-school nanny are typically from 2pm-6pm or 3pm-6pm, Monday through Friday. This schedule allows you to go to your classes and still have a free evening to work on homework, or enjoy time with your friends. Plus, these positions pay anywhere from $12-$15 per hour.

As an after school nanny, your job duties would include picking up the children from school, helping them with their homework, driving them to after-school activities/practices, doing light housework (dishes, laundry, picking up toys, etc.), and in some cases making dinner.

However, being an after school nanny is much more fulfilling that just going through the motions of an afternoon. For example, you are the first person the kids get to share their day with—they get to tell you about their happiest moments and their most disappointing ones. As you listen and comfort them, you get to build a bond with them that most people are not privileged enough to experience. This is also true when you are helping them with their homework or going to ballet classes with them. The kids trust you to guide them through the tough problems and be there to celebrate their accomplishments. Not many people have jobs that are as rewarding as that.

Plus, if you are going into the field of education or any other area involving working with kids, this job is an excellent way to build your resume.
