Madeline is one of those teachers who just make everything easier. She’s super patient with the kids, always calm even when things get hectic, and just naturally good at making everyone feel comfortable. The kids adore her, and she’s always willing to help out wherever she’s needed. Seriously such a solid teammate.

Tara R., Babysitter in Burlington, NC 27215 with 15 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Tara, and I am an experienced nanny, educator, dance teacher, and proud mother to a one year old daughter. As a parent myself, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, nurturing, and engaging to care for your children. I am currently seeking nanny opportunities where my daughter would be welcome to come along, creating a loving and social environment for all children involved. I earned my BFA in Dance from University of North Carolina at Greensboro in 2019. After graduation, I moved overseas to Australia and worked as an international live-in nanny (au pair) for two families. During my time abroad, I cared for children ranging from 6 months to 6 years old, including infant twins. This experience gave me strong hands-on knowledge of many developmental stages and helped me become adaptable, patient, and confident in caring for multiple children at once. I also spent two years working in public school education as a related arts dance teacher, where I gained valuable classroom management skills and experience supporting children of many different ages, personalities, and learning styles. Through years of teaching dance and working with children, I discovered a true passion for child development, creativity, and education. In addition to childcare, I am comfortable assisting with light household cleaning, homework help, meal preparation, crafts, imaginative play, and outdoor adventures. I love creating enriching, active, and creative experiences for children while maintaining a safe and structured environment. My background in dance and education allows me to bring lots of energy, creativity, and movement into everyday activities. I have experience working with children from infancy through age 17, have reliable transportation, most importantly, I genuinely love working with children and building meaningful relationships with families. I would be honored to help care for and support your little ones!

Tara is amazing. She just moved and we miss her terribly already! Tara was always on time, responsive, is incredibly patient, fun and kind. My twins absolutely adored her and would light up every time they saw her. I felt completely confident knowing they were in such great hands. Highly, highly recommend!

Hannah W., Babysitter in Burlington, NC 27215 with 2 years of paid experience

Hi, my name is Hannah Williams. I am a college student. I love working with kids and that's what I plan on doing when I'm older. I've watched children of family members and friends for free and I have 2 years of paid childcare experience. I am a great problem-solver and have mediated plenty of issues. I have a car and am willing to help do errands and house chores. I will help with homework and anything your children may need help with, like sleep training. As a babysitter, I worked with two families on a more consistent basis and one family about twice a year. With one family, I would pick the two children up and then take them to school. With the other consistent family, I would get the children ready for school, daycare, summer camps, or just for the day. I would then take the children where they need to go and pick them back up after school or camp. Sometimes I would have one of the children all day and if I so, we would take time to do some form of learning, flash cards for the younger child and workbooks for the older child. I prepared the children snacks and breakfast every time and sometimes would make them lunch or dinner. I ensured that the children get to play outside and make sure they play in a safe way. I had to help the children work through arguments they have with each other or any of their negative emotions. Please feel free to ask me any questions!

I loved interviewing with this provider, I hesitated in making a decision and lost probably the best provider for my children. Bubbly personality, professional and prompt. Attentive to the children even during the interview. Definitely a provider that I would have hired on the spot if I could. I highly recommend her as my children still ask about Mrs. Dawne.

Margot K., Babysitter in Burlington, NC 27215 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.

Cheryl H., Babysitter in Burlington, NC 27215 with 18 years of paid experience

I am a graduate from Kennesaw State with a degree in early childhood education. I am currently working as a nanny for two families with infants. Last year I taught in a public school with third, fourth, and fifth grade students who struggle with math and reading comprehension . My past experiences include working in 4 different child care centers, participating in field course work through KSU in 5 different elementary schools, and volunteer experience with multiple church organizations.    I love reading and hope to find a family that also shares this interest. I have a greyhound, but grew up with labradors so I working in a home with dogs would be a terrific bonus for me. During the day time I enjoy visiting parks and going on walks. I also like to stay indoors and get creative with finger paints and play-doh. I perfer to keep children engaged than to have them play video games or watching tv. I have my own transportation, so I would be willing to take children out for special outings or tansport them to activities.    Currently I am seeking a full time position starting at the end of May.  If you are interested and think I may be a good fit for your family, please ou with my resume and a list of references.

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!!

I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy working with kids! It’s incredibly rewarding to create a fun and safe environment for them while being a positive influence in their lives. I recently graduated from high school and am now attending Johnson C. Smith University. During high school I’ve already completed all of my certified nursing assistant courses, through my studies, I’ve become CPR and First Aid certified, which means I’m well-prepared to handle emergencies and always prioritize the safety and well-being of the children in my care. In addition to my academic background, I’ve gained hands-on experience by babysitting, nannying during the summer, and working as a camp counselor. These roles have helped me connect with kids of all ages through fun, engaging activities and consistent care. I’m excited to bring my energy, experience, and compassion to your family!
