A little bit about me

My name is Journi, and I love being outside, doing hair, and working with kids. I enjoy helping children learn, grow, and have fun, and it makes me happy to bring joy into their lives. I love working with kids, I don’t necessarily want to work inside a building all day I would rather have a job where I can go on outings, explore different places, and create fun experiences for kids while making a positive impact on them.

Ireland P. - Seeking Work in Hickory

Babysitter Available in Hickory, NC: Ireland P.

Hi! My name is Ireland Patterson and I’m a 20 year old Criminal Justice student at the Hickory Appalachian State campus, I plan to be a juvenile forensic investigator after I graduate. I have always had a genuine love for caring for and spending time with children. I have experience caring for toddlers from babysitting two young children alongside my mom, and I’ve also gained infant-care experience through regularly babysitting my niece since becoming an aunt. Growing up with a brother who has multiple intellectual and physical disabilities has also given me valuable experience, and understanding when caring for children with different needs. I’m a compassionate and patient person who believes every child deserves high-quality care, and attention. I prefer hands-on, engaging activities over relying on screens and technology, and I enjoy creating a fun, safe environment through play and one on one interaction. I have a wide availability and I look forward to meeting with you!
Kelsey Q. - Seeking Work in Hickory

Babysitter Available in Hickory, NC: Kelsey Q.

Hi! My name is Kelsey, and I have over 10 years of experience working with children. I have a degree in Early Childhood Development and began my career as a preschool teacher before going on to work in education and eventually opening my own licensed in-home daycare.

Running my daycare was incredibly rewarding, and I cared for children from newborn through 5 years old while providing age-appropriate learning, care, and support for their developmental milestones. I’m also a mother of two, so caring for children is truly something I love and have always been passionate about.

I’m dependable, nurturing, patient, and genuinely enjoy being part of a child’s growth and development. I would love the opportunity to bring my experience and passion for childcare to your family!
