My brother is neurodivergent (autism spectrum and adhd), as well as a lovely 3 year old I babysat last Summer :) that being said, i’ve spent time learning how to help kids like them be comfortable and have genuine fun! I have the most experience with ages 1-4 and 7-12, but absolutely love all ages!!! I live in Gainesville, but have my own reliable transportation, and do not mind traveling up to 45 minutes to babysit. My availability is down below!!!

"Our baby girl had extreme stranger danger and separation anxiety. The first time she met Isadora she reached her arms out for her. Isa was able to calm her immediately when she was upset. Isa provided safe and loving care in home for our daughter. With her background as a child psychologist she always knew what to do to keep her entertained and happy. Isa really has become part of our family and although we are starting our daughter at an early learning center, we will continue to meet up with Isa so that my daughter and her can spend time together. We will all miss her greatly."

A little bit about me
Greetings, My name is Xavier and I am a person that understands youth on a youthful level due to my high sense of empathy. I worked as a teacher at Antilles School in the Virgin Islands while also helping young athletes become their best self. I’m not perfect but I am real. I listen more than I speak which is a plus when understanding children. One of my favorite verses in the Bible says “unless we become like children again, we cannot inherit the kingdom of heaven.” Children didn’t come in this world to be controlled, they came here to remind us to free our souls. Peace to everyone.

Hi, I'm Lauren, and I'd love to join your family as a full-time nanny!
Currently, I work at The Montessori School in Chattanooga, where I started as a General Assistant in the toddler and pre-k building, helped out with elementary+ aftercare, and am now an Infant Educational Assistant, so I'm comfortable with ages 4 months-14 years.
Other experience includes camp counseling at a performing arts school in New Jersey for about 4 summers, virtual K-12 mentoring and admissions guidance, and living with my niece full-time when she was 2-4 years old.
I am CPR/AED/First Aid certified, have a Bachelor's Degree in PR and English from MTSU, and am currently seeking a Nursing Degree.

"Lauren is a genuine individual that puts in her heart into everything she does. Lauren began helping me with my 2-year-old daughter in 2019 and decided to take a different career path in 2022. I encouraged her decision, otherwise she would still be with us. I haven’t experienced someone so empathetic & understanding. Not only did she take care of my daughter, but she helped me, too. She’s not just a caregiver, she’s a true friend & your family’s biggest cheerleader. She loves wholeheartedly. She is flexible & willing to do what’s best for the family. Multifaceted & incredibly creative, she taught my daughter how to love herself & be a leader. She even taught me a lot about myself and my own potential. My daughter still loves her more than anything, always asking for Auntie “LoLo”; she’s still her best friend. Lauren checks in & attends events simply out of the kindness of her heart; Lauren is one-of-a-kind. She is intuitive & authentic. Lauren will forever hold a place in our hearts."

Hi, I’m Bonnie! For many amazing years, I’ve had the joy of working with kids of all ages and backgrounds. Each child brings their own personality, strengths, and stories, which makes every day different and exciting. These experiences have helped me grow in patience, creativity, and flexibility while learning how to connect with students in ways that help them feel supported and confident. Working with children continues to inspire me and reminds me how fun and rewarding learning can be!
