"Danelle is a full time nanny for my 3 children, now ages 5,9, and 11. She’s been our nanny for 2 years and is truly amazing. Danelle is a wonderful care giver to my children who goes above and beyond for them. She truly cares about their happiness, health, and safety. Danelle also has a great balance of being loving and caring for them, as well as assisting in teaching them when their behavior is not ok. As a host parent, she constantly goes out of her way to help and even spend her free time with the children. She has been incredible and we will all miss her a great deal. I recommend Danelle strongly and can say that she is a wonderful person and has been so helpful and generous with her time and energy. "

"Cindy is what I call sent from heaven. She cares so much for my kids and they absolutely adore her. She has watched all 4 of my children alone and is comfortable taking all of them out at once. She has taken them places I've never even heard of and definitely knows how to have a great time. No matter what life throws at her she always comes to work with the biggest smile on her face ready to play. She is very organized and has a fun personality. Although she is no longer employed by me she still comes by occasionally to have dinner with the kids and catch up. She goes above and beyond and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone needing a nanny or babysitter. We love her!"

Hi there! My name is Kyia and I am 22 years old! I have been babysitting since I was 11 years old, and now I babysit 11 year olds--crazy!! I take babysitting very seriously and love kids! I have been studying English and Film and Digital Media at Wofford College and will graduate in May. I love to write, read, sing, create art, bake, be outside, travel to new places and be around people. I love to socialize but I can also be a homebody as well. Putting a smile on kids faces is the best feeling, but I am also able to be firm and keep the kids in line. I try to be a very kind and positive person, and I hope that rubs off on everyone I come into contact with.

A little bit about me
I am currently studying Business & Education, combining my passion for leadership & development with my love for working with children. With over eight years of hands-on experience as a nanny, I’ve learned that caring for children goes far beyond supervision. It is about creating structure, stability, & a safe environment where they feel seen, heard, & supported.
I genuinely love being part of a child’s growth journey. Whether that means helping them reach developmental milestones, building confidence in schoolwork, encouraging independence, or simply creating meaningful everyday moments, I take pride in being someone they can rely on. I believe children thrive when they are guided with patience, consistency, & warmth.
My goal is not only to help children have fun, but to help shape positive experiences that contribute to their emotional, social, & academic growth. I hope to continue creating nurturing, safe environments where children can grow into confident, kind, & capable adults.

"Ashley has been such a steady and loving presence in my daughter’s life for the past five summers and on occasional weekends throughout the school year. She has always been incredibly flexible and reliable whenever we’ve needed her, which as a parent means more than I can explain.
She truly feels like part of our family. From the very beginning, it was clear that she genuinely cares, not just about supervising, but about being present and engaged. She keeps my daughter safe and structured, but also makes their time together fun and meaningful. They do crafts, play imaginative games, have little adventures, and share real conversations. My daughter absolutely lights up when she knows Ashley is coming.
The biggest thing for me is peace of mind. I completely trust her. She is patient, thoughtful, dependable, and mature beyond her years. I never have to worry when my daughter is with her. Any family would be so lucky to have someone as caring and reliable as Ashley caring for their child"

"Alice has helped babysit our three children on an as-needed basis over the last couple of years. She’s great with kids and I would definitely recommend her!
She has a very gentle and loving approach which is the most important quality in a nanny/babysitter. She is very intelligent (both logically and emotionally) and is great about engaging with children playing, teaching, singing, etc.
One thing I especially appreciate is her approach to children who are shy (ex: my middle daughter at the time Alice started with us). Alice showed great respect giving my daughter space to warm up and slowly start playing with Alice."

"It is with great pleasure that I write in enthusiastic endorsement of Simona Conti as a childcare provider. She has provided childcare for my son since January 2017 when he was five months old to the present day. From the beginning, Simona has been an ideal caretaker: responsible, kind, nurturing, trust-worthy, and attentive. She has always met and surpassed our expectations of childcare from her steadfast reliability and punctuality to navigating changes in our child’s routine to building a genuine relationship with our son.
At each stage, she met our new suggestions and expectations for care: from warming breast milk bottles to playground safety to traveling on the subway. We have utmost trust that she will implement our family’s new practices and guidelines. She is always attentive to our child’s needs and reports her insights and observations with care.
Simona is friendly, kind, and energetic. Simona has been a beloved and outstanding caretaker for our son."
