Brenda P., Babysitter in Brentwood, NC 27616 with 10 years of paid experience

Thanks for reviewing my profile! There's nothing I would rather do than be with infants, toddlers & children. I provide whatever each child needs - comfort and cuddling, down-on-the-floor game playing, or, athletic, artistic and intellectual activities. With experience as both a pre-school teacher and mother of three remarkable daughters, I respect & adore children of all ages, using patience, kindness, redirection and humor to bring out the best in them (and in myself!). I have a proven ability to swiftly form trusting bonds with children & I consider caring for their well-being to be one of humankind's most important responsibilities. I am a founding board member of the Golisano Children's Museum in Naples, FL, where I just relocated from after 35 years! I hold a BA degree in Literature & my interests include history, jazz, nutrition, biking, art, & photography. Seeking short term, occasional, newborn support, one-time, special event, sick care & emergency. $25/hr.

Brenda watched my 8 month old baby girl for us last minute and she was fantastic. She engaged with age appropriate play during her wake time, kept her on her schedule, and even help straighten up the house while she was napping. She was punctual, professional, gave a great end of day report to us, and best of all our daughter loved her. We would love to have her back anytime our schedules align again.

Breanna was a great sitter for my two boys. She arrived on time and immediately seemed comfortable interacting with us and the children. She helped with dinner and bedtime. All was well! 5 stars.

We had a wonderful experience with Barbara! She was amazing with my 2-year-old son—he connected with her right away and didn’t want her to leave at the end of the day, which says everything. She came prepared with toys that kept him engaged and happy, and she handled his routine perfectly. She even got him down smoothly for his nap, which isn’t always easy. It gave me real peace of mind knowing he was in such capable and caring hands. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful babysitter.

Hello! My name is Becky Burmester. I am an active grandma of 5 and was a foster parent for 25 years. With more time on my hands, I have recent babysitting references. I would love to help out other families. I have experience with all ages of children but most extensive experience with infants. I am first aid certified and cpr certified. I am COVID vaccinated. My philosophy is that as a sitter my sole job is to interact with the child(ren) and supervise all activities. I live near Buffalo and New Hope Roads. I am pet friendly.

We feel so lucky to have found Becky. She has watched our children twice and even rescued us last minute when another sitter cancelled, and each time she has been absolutely wonderful. She brings such a calm, experienced presence. It’s clear she’s very comfortable with children and knows how to balance being kind and warm while also maintaining clear boundaries. Our preschooler took to her immediately. On Valentine’s Day we returned home to lovely painted cards that were so special. As parents, the reliability and peace of mind she provides are invaluable. Knowing someone so capable and thoughtful is with our children allows us to truly relax while we’re out. We’re incredibly grateful for her help and would recommend her without hesitation to any family looking for a dependable, experienced, and caring sitter.

Caitlin E., Babysitter in Brentwood, NC 27616 with 17 years of paid experience

Fun, mature, creative, responsible, and fluent in American Sign Language! I have been babysitting for more than 17 years and have extensive experience working with children of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities. I genuinely enjoy meeting new families and am always up for an adventure, creative activity, or unique opportunity. I hold a Doctorate in Clinical Social Work and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I own a private psychotherapy practice and also serve as part-time faculty in the social work departments at two North Carolina universities. Throughout my education and career, much of my work has centered on children, families, and their well-being. Because my professional schedule is flexible, babysitting remains a meaningful and enjoyable way for me to continue working directly with children and families outside of my clinical and academic roles. Perfect for date nights, occasional care, and families looking for a highly experienced, dependable sitter. I look forward to connecting!

Caitlin watched my infant son for me for a few hours so I could run some errands. She was on time, communicative and very respectful and nice. When I came home she was playing with my son on the floor and he was very happy. I hope to hire her again soon.

Kristen B., Babysitter in Brentwood, NC 27616 with 3 years of paid experience

Hi! I’m Kristen, a college graduate, current K–6 teacher candidate, and longtime caregiver and educator with 12 years of experience working with children. My background ranges from one-on-one disability support to preschool classrooms and groups of up to 15 children, including experience in NC 5-star and Montessori settings, tutoring, and youth programs such as NC State’s TIME-recognized Catalyst STEM program and a Teach For America tutoring fellowship. I love discovering what makes an individual child light up and building on their interests, whether that means an activity, a favorite topic, or the perfect book from my personal library. I’m also open to education-focused roles involving tutoring, homework help, enrichment, or homeschool support, and I’m happy to pitch in with meal prep, pet care, laundry, tidying, and deeper cleaning when time and the children’s needs allow. I have substantial experience supporting children with autism, ADHD, developmental and learning disabilities, physical disabilities, and visual impairments, and I’m comfortable with visual supports, first/then language, interest-based engagement, and co-regulation through difficult transitions or sensory overwhelm. While I establish my Sittercity profile, I’m offering a limited introductory rate of $12/hr for select first-time bookings. If you think I might be a good fit, send me a message and tell me a little about your family!

Kristen was hired to housesit for our family for five days, care for our three dogs, and deep-clean a bedroom belonging to another relative that had fallen into extremely severe condition. The room had what I would describe as hoarding-adjacent levels of clutter, along with significant sanitation issues. Belongings were piled nearly to doorknob height in a large section of the room, and essentially only a pathway from the door to the bed remained accessible. There was a strong sour odor that could be smelled from the hallway, and much of the room and its furniture could no longer be used normally. Kristen sorted through approximately 14 storage containers' worth of belongings and removed nine bags of trash and recycling. She organized what was kept into a simple, practical system that would be easier to maintain. By the end of the project, the floor was completely clear and the furniture was accessible and usable again. She also washed all of the laundry and linens, dusted and aired out the room, and repeatedly vacuumed and shampooed the carpet throughout her stay. When she saw that the water from the carpet cleaner was still coming up dirty, she continued working on it rather than stopping after a single pass. Despite this large task, the dogs were very well cared for. She found time to play with and exercise them and regularly sent us cute pictures and updates while we were away. Our dogs were clearly happy with her company, snuggling up in bed with her and not even letting her go to the bathroom in peace :) Also, although she was not hired to clean anything besides the bedroom, she also took the initiative to clean the kitchen counters and table and wash all of the dishes that had been left in the sink before we returned. We were very happy with everything she did for us and came home to a much cleaner space and three very happy dogs.

CPR and First Aid certified, available mornings, evenings, and weekends. My favorite activities with younger children include Lego's, trains, dress up, arts and crafts, games, reading, etc. The families I have supported have retained me from kindergarten through high school, and we have maintained lasting relationships. They have entrusted me with driving their children to school drop off and pick up, sporting activities, grocery shopping, and so on. If you are looking for a regular, reliable, loving baby sitter, contact me. I am also available to organize your home and do light housework. I live in Garner. Commuting is not a problem.

I currently work as a full-time nanny for two school-aged girls (5 and 7), managing school pick-ups, transportation to extracurricular activities, meal preparation (lunch and dinner), bath time, and maintaining a structured, organized daily routine. I also have experience as an infant/toddler teacher in a childcare center and have helped with potty training, picky eating, and developmental milestones.
