A little bit about me

Hi! I'm a dependable and attentive caregiver with 4 years of paid childcare experience and a strong foundation in child development coursework. I've supported children of various ages through both personalized babysitting and hands-on daycare environments, helping create structured, safe, and engaging routines that support emotional growth and positive behavior. I am CPR trained and comfortable assisting with daily responsibilities such as meal preparation, light housekeeping, creative activities, homework support, and maintaining a calm, organized environment. I take pride in being patient, observant, and proactive ensuring children feel secure while parents feel confident leaving their little ones in capable hands. I'm open to full-time nanny roles, occasional babysitting, and travel opportunities when needed. My goal is to provide dependable, high-quality care built on trust, communication, and a genuine passion for supporting children's development in a positive and respectful way.

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Taylor Frye
I’m a student at the University of South Carolina – Columbia, majoring in Biology. After I graduate, I plan to go to PA school and work in pediatrics because I’ve always loved working with kids and helping them grow!
I’ve worked in childcare for the YMCA in North Carolina as a Childcare Program Coordinator, where I got to work with kids of all ages — from newborns to middle schoolers. I also have lots of experience babysitting for families around my hometown, stepping in whenever people needed an extra set of hands.
I’d describe myself as responsible, patient, and fun. I love creating a safe and happy environment where kids can learn and have fun at the same time. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, or just hanging out, I’m always excited to make a positive impact!
