Caitlin E., Babysitter in Cary, NC 27519 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.

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.

Hannah M., Babysitter in Cary, NC 27519 with 9 years of paid experience

Hi, my name is Hannah! I’m a 24 year old part-time student in the process of getting my associate degree in Applied Sciences. I love caring for children and helping parents maintain their households and errands. I am very responsible and trustworthy when it comes to doing a task, especially involving adolescents. I have been working publicly since I was 13, and babysitting since I was 11. I always make sure to keep my working environments organized, stress-free, and safe, so you and your children can feel completely comfortable with me! I would love to care for your children and tend to any additional errands or requests parents may have. Can't wait to meet you!

Brenda P., Babysitter in Cary, NC 27519 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.

We’ve had a great experience with Kimberly. She’s reliable, friendly, and clearly great with kids. Our kids always ask when she’s coming back to babysit, which says a lot! She keeps them entertained and follows their routines well.

Eliana B., Babysitter in Cary, NC 27519 with 2 years of paid experience

I am a college student who has been around kids my whole life. I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and helping create a fun, safe and positive environment for them. I also enjoy building connections with kids by keeping them active and comfortable while their parents are away. I have experience caring for children through babysitting and volunteering. I grew up helping take care of my younger brother which taught me responsibility and patience and I also babysat for two autistic children which helped me develop strong communication skills, adaptability, and understanding when working with children who may have different needs. In addition, I also volunteered babysitting children during church events and helped run a fun run at an elementary school where I worked closely with kids in a group setting. I also worked as an intern for a Barbizon class, where I helped teach younger kids about modeling, acting, confidence and healthy self-care habits. Through all of these experiences, I’ve developed skills in patience, communication, leadership, creativity, and staying calm under pressure. I am skilled in helping kids with any homework they may have, keeping the house clean and tidy and I also have my own car. I always aim to make sure children feel cared for while giving parents peace of mind.

Eliana is a well mannered, well educated, sports loving young lady. She took care of my son as an older sister. As soon as we met her, me and my wife felt trust and warmth. This is something rare. I wish Eliana nothing less than the best. My son will be glad to have her back. Thank you Eliana.

Katie C., Babysitter in Cary, NC 27519 with 15 years of paid experience

I have over 15 years of experience as a nanny and a babysitter and have excellent references, as well as experience with multicultural and multi-generational families. I enjoy helping children grow, learn, and just be happy. With a degree in English, I have the skills to help kids with their homework. 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 am also available for date nights. I can give you references after we speak.

Hi! I’m Brea and I am a loving, reliable, and attentive caregiver with hands-on experience caring for infants, toddlers, and young children. 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. I hold my Early Childhood Education credential and am trained in SIDS awareness, CPR, and First Aid, allowing me to provide safe, informed, and responsive care. I love screen-free play, creative arts, outdoor activities, and creating a safe, nurturing environment where children feel supported and confident. Families appreciate my calm presence, strong intuition, reliability, and genuine love for children. I’m comfortable with pets, have reliable transportation, and I’m happy to help with child-related household tasks. My goal is always to support both children and parents while bringing positive energy into every home I work in!
