Hi there! I'm Cameron, I'm 28yrs old and originally from western Maryland. Throughout highschool and college, I babysat for several years. I also volunteered as a pre-k assistant in my mom's classroom, and have plenty of experience with babies and toddlers under 4yo. Right now I WFH but would love to transition to nanny part or full-time for the right family. I live in West Ashley where I will commute to your home. I can also help out with light housekeeping. I can prep meal/snacks for the kiddos as provided by your family.

I'm planning on getting First Aid/CPR/AED certified in SC! I have been in past years as well.

"As a single working father of 2 Lisa was such a pleasure to work with. Lisa not only watches my children, she engages with them, takes care of them, listens and takes part in their interest which i appreciate. She treats my children like they're part of her own family. She's kind, sweet, patient, highly motivated, and always willing to put my Emma and Johnathan first. On weekends my children are always wondering when auntie Lisa is going to come and visit. She is wonderful and I highly recommend her services."

"She has the most loving, caring heart. It is apparent Brittany loves children and she goes the extra mile to make them feel special, buying them special treats out of her own pocket, bringing in party hats, treats and gifts to celebrate not only her own birthday, but the children's birthdays! She takes the time to make your child feel like the most loved child in the world. Brittany is the true embodiment of Mary Poppins, and was born to care for children. My child and all the children in her classes adore her. "

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Gabby! I have a degree in Psychology with minors in Leadership Studies and Business Management. I’ve always loved working with children. I have several years of experience working in recreation programs with kids of all ages, where I’ve supervised activities, coached youth sports, and helped create a fun, safe, and positive environment. I also have long-term babysitting experience caring for twins and a toddler, so I’m comfortable managing multiple children and different ages at once. I’m dependable, patient, energetic, and love staying active, whether that means playing outside, doing crafts, helping with homework, or coming up with fun activities. My background in psychology has also given me a strong understanding of development, behavior, and the importance of creating a supportive environment for children. I truly enjoy building relationships with both kids and families and would love to find a family I can become a trusted and reliable part of!
