Hey Parents! I have gained experience caring for infants from my doula background. Assisting parents with feeding, soothing, sleep support, diapering. I am CPR certified and committed to maintaining a safe, nurturing, and responsive environment where children can thrive. I have a special passion for working with babies and infants and understand the importance of attentive, individualized care during the early stages of development. As for older children I am able to dive into my hobbies like baking, games, and venturing outside to keep them entertained. I work closely with families to ensure that care aligns with their parenting preferences, routines, and values. Whether providing occasional babysitting, regular childcare, or support for parents needing extra assistance, I strive to create a calm, dependable, and loving environment that gives parents peace of mind while their children are in my care. P.S. I have a the results of my background check that was done through Vetty, that I can send to families that are interested.

Takeda was absolutely wonderful with the children. She was attentive, responsible, and genuinely engaged with them throughout her time here. She kept the kids happy, entertained, and occupied with activities, while also making sure their needs were met. The children were comfortable with her and had a great time.

Angelica was an amazing nanny to our three month old baby girl and five year old boy. We were so sad to have to see her move from Texas as I know she will be missed by both of our kiddos. Being as both my husband and I are in the military, Angelica was truly understanding and available to help out with our kiddos. She was ALWAYS on time for the full four months, every single day without fail, which is invaluable nowadays. She is highly recommended for babies and kids of all ages. She is kind, caring and very patient.

We had a wonderful experience with Erica! She is warm, friendly, and put our four kids at ease right away. We especially appreciated how communicative she was throughout the evening, sending updates that gave us total peace of mind. She even went above and beyond by tidying up before we got home. Highly recommend!

Hi! I'm Shannon, a 28 year old who lives in Raleigh and babysits for a living. I have reliable transportation and I'm CPR/ First Aid certified. I have been babysitting since I was 17 professionally. I started watching children with autism at 18 until last year because I became a full time nanny. I'm taking time off from Wake Technical Community college to save up money and figure out exactly which career I would like to pursue. I would love to talk on the phone, meet for coffee, an dome over to meet your family. I'm friendly, respectful, prompt, and tidy. Look forward to hearing from you! Shannon

Shannon has a great personality when it comes to babysitting and our daughter has really developed a liking to her. Shannon has been AWESOME!

My name is Cielo and I am a responsible, warm, energetic, and caring nanny. I have over five years of experience caring for children from infancy to school age. I am here to express my interest in supporting your family as a nanny/sitter either part-time or full-time, depending on your needs. I have worked with several families in Durham, Carrboro, and Chapel Hill, including nanny-sharing and short-term contracts, and I was previously a teacher's aide at a daycare center. These positions have provided me with strong skills in creating structured daily routines, supporting early development, preparing healthy meals, and managing child-related household tasks. I am also comfortable with pets and have experience caring for them during family trips. What families appreciate most about me is my calm and reliable nature and the way I genuinely connect with children. I pride myself on being a constant and caring presence in their lives. I understand the importance of trust and communication when working in someone's home, and I always strive to build strong and respectful relationships with both children and parents. I'd be happy to provide you with references. I'm also CPR-certified and qualified under the North Carolina Child Care Act.

Cielo is genuine and kind. She is a natural nurturer and my son loved spending time with her. I went through a tough postpartum with no family near by. Cielo was the only babysitter I had who was consistently reliable.

Hello! I have over 15 years experience with nannying and have also worked at a daycare and special needs school. I have a passion for caring for children and love to have fun! I use a gentle parenting approach which involves redirecting rather than scolding and listening and valuing children’s opinions/feelings. I am energetic and have experience with children ages newborn to teens. Safety and care for your child is number one but I also do light housework as well (dishes, wipe counters, baby/child laundry, etc). Your child will be lovingly be cared for and entertained with playing outside, doing crafts, swimming, riding bikes, stroller walks, doing sensory activities, dancing, and anything else your child is into! **CPR/AED/First Aid certified through the American Red Cross (infant/child/adult and OSHA compliant), fully vaccinated against Covid/Flu yearly, knows baby sign language, safe and responsible driver (new 2026 vehicle with many safety features), comfortable with pets.**

I had a wonderful experience with Lindsay. Linds took care of my grandson for 2 years. She even did some light housework on her own when my grandson was sleeping. She was punctual, respectful, and very patient with my grandson. She also took the time to teach him a variety of things that he would have to know when he eventually started school. Linds was always very kind and considerate and wonderful with kids of all ages. I would definitely hire her again if I needed a sitter in the future.
