A little bit about me

Hello my name is Dundra but to make it easier you can call me Fancy. I’m 18 years old. I’ve been babysitting since I was 14 with kids ages 0-12. I have lots of baby’s in my family so I have loads of experience with newborn. For the toddlers and kids I’m very active to keeping up with them won’t be a problem. For the preteens and teens I have 4 sisters so I know how they are when it comes to socializing.
I also understand how important child development is for young children and how much of an influence we can be. So I would love to make a connection with your little ones and help them grow.

A little bit about me

Hi I’m Sophie! I’m 20 and I’m planning to move to Charleston early 2025 and hoping to find a part time nanny job! I’ve babysat for up to 15 hours a week since middle school (kids aged 3 months-12 years) and spent time volunteering in both kindergarten & fifth grade classrooms! I’d love to get to know some families and see if I could be a good fit.
