More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
I’ve supported families from all walks of life, including those navigating Medicaid, Medicare, CAP-C, CAP-DA, and private duty care, as well as working professionals in healthcare, education, law enforcement, therapy, real estate, media, and remote-based fields. I’ve helped families access disability services and navigate the transition from pediatric to adult care, advocating for continuity and support. I’ve also cared for declining spouses and aging parents, offering hands-on care and guidance through palliative care, hospice, and beyond with presence, empathy, and discretion. My role often includes developmental tracking, gentle routines, meal prep, and creating calm, nurturing environments during all seasons of life. Specializing in home-based care, I’ve learned that caring for those just beginning life, those nearing the end, or any age in between requires the same steady presence, patience, and love. While their needs may differ, the heart of caregiving remains the same.
Activities I enjoy doing with children...
I most enjoy baby sign language, wholesome meal prep, weekly art projects, outdoors activities, music, and books. I also provide help with skills including: social/emotional, gross motor, fine motor, cognitive, speech and self care. I am able to focus on environment specific skills for at home, at the table, outside, car, and social gatherings.
The most important part about being a nanny...
The most important part of being a nanny is building a secure, loving relationship where a child feels safe to grow, explore, and thrive. I prioritize safety in every aspect of care, including physical supervision, safe sleep practices, emotional security, and consistency in routines. I believe in showing up with presence, patience, and awareness, creating a calm home rhythm that nurtures the whole child in mind, body, and heart. I also strive to align with each family's values and rhythms, offering care that reflects both the child's needs and the parents' approach.
The most important part about being a nanny...
One of my favorite moments was watching a baby I cared for sign “more please” during mealtime after weeks of practicing baby sign language. Seeing those first signs of communication and knowing I helped nurture that moment melted my heart.
Another was watching the same child water the plants in their family garden and name each one. It was a beautiful reminder of how daily routines, care, and connection can spark confidence, curiosity, and a love for learning.

Babysitter Available in Wilmington, NC: Shania S.
My name is Shania, and I’m 17 years old. Growing up, I helped take care of my younger siblings, who are 8 and 12 years younger than me, which gave me a lot of experience caring for children from a young age. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids, having fun with them, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I also had the opportunity to care for a family friend’s autistic child for about two months before their family moved away. Through these experiences, I’ve learned how to be patient, responsible, caring, and attentive to each child’s individual needs. Taking care of children comes naturally to me, and I truly enjoy being someone they can trust and feel comfortable around.
