A little bit about me

I am a Third Year College Student majoring in Psychology. I currently attend the Illustrious Clark Atlanta University. I am 20 years old and have been watching children ever since I was able to cook on my own and my mother had my siblings. I live on my own and can provide my own transportation to get anywhere I would like. If you're looking for a respectful and reliable nanny, then that's me. I'm willing to work with parents in regards to the needs of their children and communication will not be an issue with me. Even though I favor babies, I am very well with children from all ages when it comes to caring and nurturing children. I will make sure the fundamental needs like eating and hygiene are met but also make sure the child learns in the process of growing. Housekeeping is not a problem for me either.

A little bit about me

I am an experienced nanny and childcare provider with over 15 years of experience caring for children of all ages. As the oldest of seven siblings, I began babysitting at the age 12, which sparked a lifelong passion for nurturing and guiding children. From 2012 to 2016, I served as a custodial guardian for the State of South Carolina, caring for five children ages 4 to 16. This strengthened my skills in structure, routine, and meeting the emotional needs of children from diverse backgrounds. I hold an Associate’s Degree in Early Childhood Education with Montessori-based experience. I also have experience working with children with autism and cerebral palsy. In May 2020, I founded Tye’s Tiny Tots Childcare LLC, an in-home childcare program located in Aiken SC. I am currently located in downtown Decatur and plan to reopen my in-home daycare by Fall 2026. I am actively seeking nanny and babysitting opportunities in the meantime ☺️

"It is with extreme pleasure that I write this reference in support of Taisha. Taisha worked as a nanny for my family and I couldn’t have been more satisfied with her performance, leadership, and creativity throughout the time she Nannied for us. Ms. Taisha was reliable, responsible, efficient, and will always be a part of our family! Taisha kept our home clean and toys sterilized. She also did an amazing job of organizing, nurturing, assessing our child and assisting/supporting her in various ways based upon her individual needs. She would pledge to help in various areas in our home even ones that were not her responsibility, and her care for my child and family was very evident. We were so sad to see her move!!!"

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Sinead, a fun, caring, and reliable full-time nanny with 12+ years of experience supporting families with infants and toddlers. I love creating a calm, nurturing environment where little ones feel safe, happy, and excited to learn. I bring creativity into each day through music, sensory play, and outdoor adventures like stroller walks and nature time.

I’m confident with bottles, nap schedules, solid-food transitions, and building routines that support healthy development. Families describe me as patient, trustworthy, and highly communicative. I’m comfortable with special needs and I’m CPR/First Aid certified with a clean driving record and my own car.

I’m looking for a long-term weekday position starting in January, ideally Monday–Friday 8am–6pm. I’d love to support a family who values communication, consistency, and a warm, joyful approach to childcare!

"Trianna is wonderful with our kids (2 and 7)! She has a friendly, calm demeanor and is extremely trustworthy and great with kids of all ages! She has driven our kids numerous times, and she has even watched them overnight. Our youngest had a health issue (due to a chronic condition) while she was watching them overnight, and she got him the help he needed. She's extremely adaptable and easy to work with. I routinely request her as a babysitter, and I know her flexibility, capability, and positive attitude would make her a great fit for any family!"
