Sittercity helps Colfax families find the best babysitters

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.

Hi, my name is Valerie and I am interested in part-time childcare work. I am a mom of 5 Vikings ( as my husband and I call them). My two oldest have moved out, and I have 2 in High School and 1 in Community College. I have been a stay-at-home mom for (most of) 23 yrs. When I realized that my kids would rather be with their friends I decided it was time to get out of the house. My neighbor agreed and offered me up as a nanny for friends of hers. I obtained my CPR certification and accepted a temporary Nanny position, part-time, for an infant. I so enjoyed my time with a little again! My position ended when circumstances changed and the family moved from the area. Since that first job, I’ve had a family in town for two days for work and hired me to care for their infant for a few days. Then two very lovely families who each only needed me part of the week became my primary jobs. One family had a toddler girl and the other a toddler boy. Both of those children will begin a school/daycare program this August, so I currently have days to fill. Pre-Husband and Vikings, I earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Earth Science at Central Michigan University. Being a bit of a wanderer, I found myself in Chicago working at an Ad Agency! My family and I moved to Greensboro about 8yrs ago, and we enjoy having both mountains and Ocean available for our adventures. I enjoy getting outdoors daily, and perhaps it’s the Earth Science background, but I love taking the little ones outside and introducing them to the trees, flowers, birds, whatever we come across. Kids are such natural sponges, they soak it all in. Having the opportunity to smell or touch or hold something greatly improves their understanding, and I like to introduce words such as rough or smooth to help them be able to learn the difference and to describe what they feel.

Hi! My name is Mareyam and I am a junior college student at UNCG. I also currently work at a daycare in classrooms with kids ranging from 3 months to 5 years old (1:7 teacher student ratio) and have babysat kids 1 to 10 years old. I have experience preparing snacks and lunches for kids, doing laundry, cleaning up a little. I am CPR certified and am vaccinated. I absolutely love working with and taking care of kids.

I have 6 years of experience working with children! I have babysat most of my life, worked at a preschool, and am currently employed at the North Carolina Leadership Academy as an aftercare worker. I can cook, clean, make sure the house is tidy, have transportation, love pets, and will pretty much do anything you ask me! I am currently going to be a senior at Greensboro College receiving my BA in Elementary Education. Right now, I am only available for summer because school starts back again in August. However, I would love to nanny for the summer just while I have the free time!

I have been told that I'm the "best nanny ever" by the kids and parents I've worked with in the past. I first began childcare by volunteering at the church nursery when I was 12, and continued on into high school. I started occasionally babysitting for family and friends in high school. I enjoyed babysitting a lot more than my part-time job so I decided to pick up more hours. Since then, I have looked after children from age 6 mo-12 years old. I have helped many families in the area depending on their specific needs. I would love to find another nanny position long term on a part-time or full time basis. Thanks for reviewing my profile, I hope to speak with you soon!

Hello, hello! My name is Ashley Bailey, I’m 23 and I’m an experienced childcare provider located in Greensboro. I am a recent graduate of NCAT’s Biology program with a minor in Creative Writing. As you can see, my interests range from scientific to artistic, but childcare has been a powerful constant in my life. Starting my professional childcare journey in the summer of 2020, I have gained a multitude of experience with children of all ages. My specialty is newborn and infant care. I work closely with first time parents to not only ease their mind as they navigate the early life of their new addition, but welcome a caregiver into their home for the first time as well. I have extensive knowledge of infant milestones and experience with sleep training, bottle feeding, the transition to solid foods, and the development of motor skills. I have a structured, developmental, and empathetic approach to childcare that I work to improve every day. I am well versed with essential tasks such as maintaining routines, meal preparation, and light housekeeping. I have experience with tutoring and online learning assistance. I love to teach as much as I love to learn, but I also enjoy fun activities such as in/outdoor games and crafts. I constantly encourage creativity and imagination! I’m always up for a trip out and about. I have experience transporting children in my own reliable vehicle as well as family cars, so I am quite comfortable with car seat installation. I am CPR/First Aid certified, with extensive knowledge of pediatric medical emergencies. Working in childcare has been such a privilege in my life and I look forward to building more bonds! All the best, Ashley Bailey
