A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Kayleigh, and I recently moved to the area from Charleston, SC. I wanted to introduce myself and share a bit about my background.

Working with children has always been my passion. I began babysitting at age 12, studied Early Childhood Development, and have nearly 15 years of experience in childcare. I’ve worked with infants, kindergarten-age children, and after-school programs for ages 7–10, as well as teaching gymnastics after care programs.

What I love most about being a nanny is being part of a child’s growth and learning—watching them discover something new is truly special to me. I especially enjoy caring for infants. While I don’t have children of my own, nurturing and supporting little ones is something I genuinely love.

I am currently CPR and First Aid certified, including infant training. I feel I could be a great fit for your family and would love the opportunity to meet in person.

Thank you so much for your time and consideration.
Warmly,
Kayleigh

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I've worked in several schools, also infant rooms and after school programs. I've been babysitting since I was 12

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Crafts, art, playing outside, swimming, playing work animals.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Safety first of course, but leading by example, facilitating a learning environment, and watching them learn and grow.

My experience with special needs children...

While working in a preschool, i got to work with a few amazingly special children. I have been able to work closely with two children that were on the spectrum, age 4 and 6. They were nonverbal so we learned asl to assist in communication. I was able to get the kids to engage in projects and some school work, not just playing.

Hi! I’m a kind, patient, and dependable caregiver who genuinely loves spending time with children. I believe every child deserves to feel safe, loved, and encouraged to be themselves. I enjoy getting down on their level to play, read stories, explore outside, do crafts, and celebrate all of the little moments that make childhood so special. My goal is to create a calm, nurturing environment where children can learn, grow, and have fun while giving parents peace of mind that their little ones are in caring hands. I treat every family with the same compassion, respect, and dedication that I would hope for my own.
