A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Carleigh! In the past, kiddos have referred to me as either “Ms. Carleigh” or simply by name :) I am currently a college sophomore looking for an opportunity to help me pay for groceries, gas, etc. while in school. I love working with children and I feel as though this would really help prepare me for my future! I’m willing to tidy up the house, make meals, and whatever else is needed! :)

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Virginia, but I go by Ginny. I’m 16 & homeschooled. I have lots of babysitting experience, such as babysitting for family friends, working in the nursery at my church, & caring for my younger siblings. I have four younger siblings, ages 6 months, 2 years, 4 years, & 7 years. Since I was 9 I’ve been an older sister, and ever since then I’ve babysat, fed, played with, & cared for my siblings. It’s something I truly enjoy & am very passionate about. I also have no problem with helping with light cleaning & cooking, homework, crafts & activities, & whatever else you may need help with! 😊

A little bit about me

I am from Charlotte, NC and currently attending school at the University of Wilmington as a freshman! I have nannied for 2 families in the time span of 3 years. I first cared for a 6 month old boy for 1 year , and a 3 year old boy with special needs for 2 years. I have been babysitting children anywhere from age newborn to 12 years old for about 3 and a half years now. I am a very active, outgoing, reliable, patient, and responsible person. And most importantly I absolutely love kids and truly have a passion in caring for them. I can ensure a safe and nurturing environment, maintain a consistent routine, and communicate effectively with parents about the child’s progress! I have many referrals that I’d be more than happy to provide as well. Please feel free to reach out! - I am also very comfortable around pets and do have my own car accessible.
