My husband and I are "empty nesters". I miss the joy and fun of being around children. I was a nanny throughout college and currently sit for friend and family when needed. I am considered the "fun aunt" by my nieces and nephews.

Hi, I’m April! I’m a kind, dependable, and loving sitter who truly enjoys helping families feel supported and cared for. I’ve raised my own children and spent years caring for kids in my family and community. I understand what it takes to keep children safe, happy, and engaged—from daily routines to story time and everything in between. I treat every child like they’re my own, and every home with the respect it deserves. Whether you need someone for after-school care, weekend help, or full-time support, I bring patience, reliability, and warmth into every role. I’m also happy to assist with light cleaning, snacks, and making sure your little ones feel loved while you’re away. If you’re looking for a sitter who shows up with heart, I’d love the opportunity to support your family. I’ve cared for children of all ages—from newborns to school-aged kids—through both personal and professional experience. I’ve raised my own children, helped with my nieces and nephews, and provided care for families who needed a reliable and nurturing sitter. I also have experience with children who have unique needs and can adapt to different routines and personalities. CPR & First Aid trained (or you can say: “Willing to get certified” if not yet) • Patient, calm, and caring under pressure • Strong time management and organization skills • Light meal prep and snack handling • Bathing, dressing, and bedtime routines • Activity planning (arts, crafts, reading, playtime) • Comfortable with pets • Respectful of family privacy, home rules, and special instructions

I have a degree in Elementary Education, am CPR and First Aid certified, and work full time as the 3K lead teacher at a church preschool. I am also working towards my CDA in preschool through the school which I am employed. I began babysitting when I was around ten, first as a "junior" babysitter for my sister and mother, and then alone as I got older. I have over 20 years experience babysitting children from infants through middle school age, and have worked in a childcare setting for 15 of those years. I also volunteered working with the youth at my church in the past, mostly with middle school girls. Although some ages and personalities are more challenging than others, I always find it rewarding working with children. They see the joy and wonder in things we take for granted, and I am always learning something from them. I love music and reading, as well as doing arts and crafts, playing games, and baking. Since I work full time during the week, I am only available weekends and evenings.

Hi families! My name is Natasha and I specialize in caring for infants and young children. I’m calm, patient, and highly attentive to developmental needs during the most important early stages of life. I support families with bottle feeding, nap routines, diapering, sensory play, early stimulation activities, and gentle transitions like diaper-to-potty training. I also have experience working with older children, including planning activities, crafts, outdoor play, and helping maintain healthy routines that build confidence and independence. I am CPR & First Aid certified, fluent in English and Portuguese, and I value clear communication with parents to ensure routines stay consistent and aligned with your family’s goals. I understand how important trust is when choosing a caregiver, and I would love to learn more about your child and how I can support your family 💛

Hello, My name is JaShelle. I was born and raised in Birmingham, Alabama. Hence, the reason why I love southern soul food :) In my free time I enjoy making craft projects, reading, practicing calligraphy, walking the trails at my local park, cooking, and trying new restaurants. My background caring for infants, toddlers, and youth began when I became a volunteer sitter at my church. I transitioned to babysitting for various families throughout my years of completing college. During that time I gained skills and knowledge that have elevated my childcare journey. My love for witnessing children learn and grow encouraged my decision to become a childcare provider and Doula. Building a great rapport and relationship with your child is my top priority. I'm kind, patient and nurturing, and I'm excited about the opportunity to work with your family!
