Hello!! I am a 23 year old college student studying Nursing.I have a strong passion to help children reach their full potential and hit all milestones needed. I have taken care of many kids throughout my 7 years of child care. I have worked as nanny, mother helpers, and in a pre-school. Throughout my years in school I have taken classes to become certified in child care, as well as cpr and first aid classes. I am a very energetic person, very crafty, and love to spend time outside. I have provided care for children ages newborn through 13 years old, multiples, and children with special needs. I look forward to providing my care!!

- 3 miles

I’m an artist with 20+ years of childcare experience, including a decade as a nanny in New York City (where I graduated from Columbia University). Since moving to the South, I enjoy meeting new families and learning how I can best support kids’ confidence, curiosity, and creativity as a sitter. I love spending time with kids outside (scootering, critter observing, sprinkler hopping!), making things (painting, sewing, baking!), reading books, and practicing new skills (cutting with scissors, phonics!) I have experience with kids on the spectrum, epi-pens, infants, and twins. I strive for clear communication and being a nurturing, peaceful presence in the home. Open to overnights and travel sitting as needed.

Hi parents! My name is Mereema, and I’m a dedicated, energetic, and compassionate caregiver with years of experience working with children of all ages. Taking care of kids has always come naturally to me—I grew up helping raise my two younger sisters and have since worked as a nanny, babysitter, and even a kids’ ski instructor. I truly love what I do and strive to create a fun, engaging, and nurturing environment for every child I care for. I have experience with infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids, handling everything from meal prep and bedtime routines to arts and crafts, outdoor adventures, and developmental activities. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, have a reliable car, and always prioritize safety and well-being. Whether it’s reading books, playing at the park, or organizing creative learning experiences, I make sure every child feels cared for, supported, and entertained. If you’re looking for a responsible, loving, and experienced sitter who will treat your little ones like family, I’d love to chat! Let’s connect and see if I’d be a great fit for your needs.
