Kaitlyn is a wonderful care giver, she is very punctual and professional, she takes the time to get to know her charges and adjust her approach accordingly, She asks questions about dietary restrictions and allergy concerns before agreeing to take on a family as clients. She is very helpful with the children’s academics, helping with them with homework assignments and even tutoring and reviewing their school work. Sha is awesome!

Katie S., Babysitter in Brightwood, NC 27214 with 3 years of paid experience

I enjoy taking care of kids but also with helping around within the house such as laundry or cleaning around. I have been taking care of kids for 3 years now. I am currently interning at a daycare with children from infants to 5 year olds. I enjoy kids as they bring a peace in me, and allow me to feel like a kid with them but while being responsible and being aware of what’s going around them. I am comfortable with pets as I have two fur babies of my own. I can also pet sit if needed.

Katie is fantastic and has been so great with our son! We have had her for a few years now to help with our son afterschool and she always keeps him engaged, helps with his homework, and became someone he really enjoyed seeing consistently. We loved having her and would recommend to any family for babysitting/nanny needs. Unfortunately, school schedule did not align for this upcoming year for us.

Ty'rielle M., Babysitter in Brightwood, NC 27214 with 3 years of paid experience

I am Ty’Rielle, but most children like to call me Miss Ty. I have experience with infants, toddlers and school age children. I love to help practice and witness essential milestones in a child life. From rolling over to crawling, from taking first steps to recognizing animal sounds, from counting to 10 to recognizing colors, I enjoy being a light to younger children by investing my time and knowledge into our next generation. I want to serve as a familiar face to your family and create a warm and welcoming environment for your children to thrive.

Margot K., Babysitter in Brightwood, NC 27214 with 4 years of paid experience

I love working with kids and am about to start school to be a pediatric occupational therapist. So I am constantly learning about behavioral and ways to accommodate. I have four years of experience babysitting different age ranges of kids, through neighbors, friends connections, and friends of my parents. I am great at putting kids to bed, making food if needed, and always make an effort to leave the place as clean if not cleaner than I found it! I am CPR certified, and also have a ford bronco sport which is great for transportation if needed.

Hi, my name is Mahlet! I am a current Physician Assistant student pursuing a Master’s degree in Physician Assistant Studies with the goal of becoming a Physician Assistant (PA). I graduated in 2023 with a Bachelor’s in Public Health Science and have worked as a full-time Medical Assistant at an ENT clinic since graduating. I have experience providing patient care for patients of all ages, from young children to elderly. I’ve spent over a decade caring for my two much-younger siblings, so I’m very comfortable with kids of all ages. I truly love working with young kids because it is highly rewarding in that I have the opportunity to help children grow and be the best version of themselves!

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Mahlet, and I can confidently say she is an exceptional sitter. From the moment we met, Mahlet was warm, kind, and extremely professional. She took the time to listen carefully during our initial meeting and followed all the instructions for caring for my 7-year-old son, who is neurodivergent. Her attentiveness, calm presence, and natural ability to connect made a world of difference. What stood out most to me was how genuinely present she was with my son. She met him exactly where he was—emotionally, socially, and developmentally. Her intuition and empathy were evident in the way she engaged with him, showing incredible patience and care without being solely performative. These are qualities that matter deeply when working with children, who can often sense when someone is truly “with” them versus simply managing them. My son—who is not quick to form attachments—was VERY tearful and begged for Mahlet to return. It felt like watching his first real heartbreak. Kids are natural feelers, and his reaction said everything: he felt seen, safe, and valued. I saw it too—Mahlet is simply a good person, and that shines through in her work. If you're looking for someone who brings professionalism, emotional intelligence, and genuine compassion—Mahlet is an absolute rare find. We are so grateful to have connected with her.

Responsibility is always necessary even if its only a couple hours. I am a "by the book" type of person when it comes to following instructions so reliability isn't a problem. I am certified in first aid and CPR certification and I know everything one needs to know to keep your child safe. I have experience in caring for children starting from a newborn up to teenage age and can easily accommodate for every age. I am excellent in the kitchen, I don't mind cleaning, I change diapers , give baths, entertain, and do anything else required of me. I have 2 kids of my own , ages 3years and another 3months😁. I teach respect and manners and have a soft tone and patience when it comes to children. All kids should be able to be just that , KIDS!!
