A little bit about me
Hi, I grew up in a big family with a lot of sisters and a couple brothers. Right here in Knoxville.
I currently clean for a small family owned airbnb business in Knoxville a few days a week but am looking for more work.
I have done a few paid babysitting jobs in the past, but also have plenty of experience with my sister's 2 kids and my best friend's 3 children as I've gotten to see them grow since birth. And will babysit from time to time so "mom" can run errands or just have a break and some time to themselves! :)

A little bit about me
Hi! I’m Makaylah, and I’ve always had a natural connection with children. I’m kind, patient, and dependable, and I genuinely enjoy helping kids learn, grow, and have fun in a safe and loving environment. While I may not have formal nanny experience yet, I bring a strong sense of responsibility, a positive attitude, and a big heart to every family I meet. I’m excited to build meaningful relationships and provide the care and attention every child deserves.

A little bit about me
My name is Danni Elaina. I am 28 years old and I have worked with children in a number of different roles since age 15. I began in a daycare setting, experiencing all age groups. Following that I worked as a camp counselor and director caring for children age 5-14. I also spend nearly 2 years in private childcare as a nanny to a family with 3 children. I currently live in Connecticut but will be relocating to the Knoxville TN area in fall of 2025. My hope is to find a family looking for a caretaker who’s philosophy is to lead with love in all things.

A little bit about me
Hi! I'm Darcie! I am currently a student at UT studying Journalism and Media. I am looking for a steady job that I can do every week. I only have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays, meaning I am free MWF, and some weekends. I love kids and am very comfortable with caring for more than one children at a time. I am very energetic and love having fun. I also have a car of my own and a perfect driving record in the case that children need transportation. Would love to get to know you!
