Jamaria B., Babysitter in Athens, AL 35613 with 4 years of paid experience

Hello, my name is Jamaria Beckam I recently graduated from Alabama A&M University with a BA in Psychology with a concentration of Human Growth and Family Studies! Over the years my mom owned a daycare my whole life up until I was about 18 so I have experience with all ages. I am a very loving and caring individual so anything that I do I put my best effort into it. I have a very bubbly, outgoing and passionate personality so there’s always fun there. I was captain of the cheerleading team and step team which has taught me great leadership and life skills. I do my best to make the right decisions for myself and anyone around me so if you pick me i’m really looking forward to being a helpful hand and make your life a little easier.

Jamaria's background and experience is as good as it gets! Her mom owned a daycare so she has experience with several ages. We did not have the opportunity to hire Jamaria because it turns out, she is allergic to our cat. We were extremely disappointed to learn this her references could not have been more positive. Throughout the hiring process she was prompt and prepared; the cat-less family who hires her will be so lucky to have her. All the best to you and to Jamaria!

Hi there! I’d love the opportunity to care for your children. As a former teacher and a mom of twins, I feel like I’ve truly seen it all 😊 I’m very hands-on and enjoy getting on the floor to play, and will follow your preferences when it comes to things like screen time. A little about me… I relocated to Huntsville from Northern Virginia about 4 years ago and am currently looking to babysit to supplement my full-time job. I hold an active Virginia Teaching License and taught 8th grade for 7 years, so I have a completed background check as well as CPR and First Aid certifications. While I’ve chosen not to return to the classroom here, my passion for working with children has never changed. I truly enjoy spending time with babies, toddlers, and school-aged kids. I’m also a proud mom of twins (now 25!), so multitasking and managing busy environments definitely come naturally to me. While living in Virginia, I babysat regularly for one family and absolutely loved it. I’m also happy to help with light housekeeping while children are napping or occupied. I have excellent references available and typically charge $20–$25 per hour, depending on the number of children. If you’d like to connect, I’d be happy to chat, let me know and I can share my contact information. Looking forward to hearing from you! Jenny

Such an amazing experience. My girls (8 and 10) had a blast with her! She has a wonderful blend of warmth, patience, and confidence that makes her a natural with children. The girls loved her energy and can’t wait for her to come back! Highly recommend her to any family looking for a responsible, kind, and fun babysitter.

Needed a sitter for date night. I have two little girls ages 6 and 3. Before date night, we interviewed Daisia, she was very nice and had such a welcoming spirit/personality. Very down to earth and gentle. Date night went really well, we were running behind, but she still accommodated us and arrived early. I’m new to Sittercity, hiring Daisia was my first, but definitely will not be my last . This is very new to us and the girls and I thought I was going to be a nervous wreck, but my girls were so comfortable and open to her. She sent a picture, which gave me more of a peace of mind. She will be #1 pick. I highly recommend hiring her.

**Looking for Occasional Babysitting** I'm a passionate, caring, upbeat individual who would be the perfect nanny for your family. I have experience working with children from new born to 12 years. I would love to engage your children in a wide variety of creative activities. I love to do science experiments, read intriguing books, and get outside with the children in my care. The most important characteristic in a family that I'm working for is communicating their needs with me. Once I know what you and the children need I will do my absolute to achieve that in way that is enjoyable for everyone. I would love to help your children have fun through learning about their environment and their interests this year! P. S. I have volunteered for over 100 hours in a nursery at the hospital. This includes bathing, feeding, and soothing newborns. I have also volunteered in my church's nursery working with infants and toddlers as well as older children.

Christalyn, thank you so much for helping us on such short notice. You went above and beyond to help us and we appreciate everything you did. You're honest, responsible and you made our trip worry free. The kids were screaming and ecstatic that you were their sitter and we couldn't be more happier that we found you. Thanks again and God bless.
