A little bit about me

Hello my name is Makiya and I am a 16 year old Junior in High School. I have lots of experience with looking after small children. I currently have 4 years of experience in babysitting and experience with babysitting children with disabilities. I’ll have my 13 year old sister (Camari) with me as help so there will always be someone watching your children. We love kids and enjoy teaching and watching them grow. We can only work the weekends due to school and occasionally on the weekdays in the evening.

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Joy, an 18-year-old freshman at the University of South Carolina. I have over 5 years of experience babysitting children from 6 months to 12 years old, and I’ve also worked in a healthcare facility as a dietary aide in an assisted living community. I’m a nursing major, CPR certified, and have completed several healthcare courses, so safety and care are always priorities for me. I love engaging kids with crafts, reading, outdoor activities, and fun learning games. I’m also open to helping with light housework, preparing simple meals, and driving children to school, practices, or extracurriculars. I’m responsible, patient, and committed to creating a positive, supportive environment for every child. I’d love the opportunity to work with your family!

A little bit about me

Hi there! My name’s Emily, but I go by Caroline, and I’m so excited to connect with you! I’ve been a nanny since I was 15 (I’m 21now), and caring for kids has always been such a joy and passion of mine. I’m originally from upstate South Carolina, but Im here in Columbia for school. I’d love to find a warm, welcoming family where I can truly become part of the team and build a meaningful bond with your little ones. A little about me: I’m currently studying Dental Hygiene, and I’m certified in First Aid and CPR. I also have my CCCMA, which means I’m well-equipped to handle both fun playtime and any health needs your kids might have. If it feels like the right fit, I’d even consider making the city my new home and transitioning into a full-time role with your family! I’d love to hear more about what you’re looking for in a nanny and how I can help make your family’s life a little brighter and easier. Let’s chat and see if we’re a perfect match!
