A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Dejah, a nurturing and dependable childcare provider with over 15 years of experience caring for children of all ages. I am CPR and First Aid certified and always prioritize safety while creating a supportive, engaging environment.

I’m currently studying online at Southern New Hampshire University and working toward my goal of owning a daycare or becoming a kindergarten teacher. I’m also a mom to an almost 5-year-old, which has strengthened my patience and understanding of child development.

Families describe me as reliable, patient, and trustworthy, and I value open communication with parents. I look forward to supporting a loving family and providing high-quality care.

Meg R. - Seeking Work in Asheville

Part-Time Nanny Available in Asheville, NC: Meg R.

Hey there,

I am a ceramic artist and educator with a passion for making creative spaces. I have been working as a certified and trained in-home care provider since 2016. I am comfortable with children from the ages of 2 months and upwards, and I have experience working with multiples and children with special needs. I am always willing to meet the child and family where they are and grow from there.
I love to spend time outdoors and like to stay moving - I consider myself a self starter. I don't use screen time as play, and would much rather go for a walk to the park, pick up a book from the library, or make up a game.

Looking forward to new connections!

Hi! I’m Adeline! While new to full-time nannying, I grew up babysitting for many families and cherish the unique bonds built with each one. I got my bachelors degree in Exercise Science and Sports Medicine (CPR/First Aid certified), so your child’s physical and mental well-being is my absolute priority. To me, building confidence starts early by avoiding helplessness and fear. I love encouraging little ones to safely explore, try things on their own, and realize how capable they are! Whether navigating walking milestones or engaging with colors, shapes, and sounds.I'm a professional, clear communicator who genuinely loves cleaning and organizing to keep your home calm. Outside of work, I love hiking with my dog, reading, meditation, or any form of exercise!
