A little bit about me

Hi! I’m a 17-year-old high school student with lots of experience caring for kids. I have two nieces and one nephew, and I regularly watch them during school breaks while my siblings are at work. I’ve also babysat for my mom’s friend, so I’m comfortable with children of different ages. I enjoy spending time with kids and always make sure they’re safe, happy, and entertained!

A little bit about me

I am a mother of 2 children 7 and 11. I am 29 years old. I was diagnosed with breast cancer January of 2019 I’m still undergoing treatments such as radiation. I’m ready to get back in the working field. I can’t do the job I used to do prior so I figured this would be a great start doing something I’m familiar with. My sister is a huge help for me with everything as well as the kids so I am able to do this. I have a car but with everything going on I’m unable to pay to get it fixed so having a job will help with that as well. I’m a peoples person great with kids and I come from a large family. Being a caretaker and mom And nurturer of my own family I know I can provide the same for anyone else.

A little bit about me

I pride myself on creating a nurturing and engaging environment where children feel safe, loved, and encouraged to explore. I'm not just a supervisor; I'm an active participant in their day, whether we're building elaborate fortresses, diving into imaginative role-play, or tackling homework challenges with patience and enthusiasm. My approach is always centered on open communication with both the children and their parents, ensuring routines are consistent, developmental milestones are celebrated, and any concerns are addressed promptly and thoughtfully. It's truly rewarding to watch the children in my care grow, learn, and discover new things, knowing I've played a part in their positive development

A little bit about me

I am a responsible and maternal 22 year old with 8 years of experience. As the oldest of 5 children, I take pride in my ability to care for others, and strive to be a role model for those in my presence. I earned a BA in Event Management from High Point University in 2023, and will be moving from NY to Daniel Island on September 1st. I changed my first diaper when I was 9 years old (my youngest sibling) and always enjoyed being my Mom's little helper. In addition to my full time job at a women's clothing boutique, I'm in high demand to local families for babysitting during evening hours. I combine my love of musical theatre, baking and crafting to keep children engaged, until it’s time to wind down. I pride myself on giving them my undivided attention. I have been driving children in my care for 6 years and understand the meaning of precious cargo, having maintained a spotless driving record. I am CPR and First Aid certified.
