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.

Hello! My name is Emily - everyone calls me Em. For the past few years I have been working as an accountant. Previously, I spent many years working full-time for nonprofit summer camp organizations as well as many positions at other summer camps. I would love to find a family that needs occasional help - for weekends/date nights or something part-time during the week. I started babysitting at age twelve for family friends. By the time I was in high-school, I was working closely with a family of four children and would watch them on overnights while the parents traveled. During college I was a nanny for two toddlers in New York, driving them to and from schools and parks. Since then, I have worked at a daycare in the infant room and have helped out with children community programs as well as babysat for various families. I have a lot of experience with newborns, infants and toddlers, but love to work with children of all ages. Some activities I enjoy in my spare time are baking, hiking, photography, knitting & mountain climbing. I have a big family and am the proud auntie of ten kiddos under the age of ten! A couple specifics regarding driving and pets: I am currently leasing a car with mileage restrictions, so if there is a need for a lot of driving for errands or for kids schedules, I would prefer driving a family vehicle. I have driven trucks, vans, all of it - am a very competent and aware driver and have never had any kind of record or at fault accident. Experience driving children, am always extra careful. I am comfortable with pets, but do have a pet dander allergy so some breeds are ok but some are difficult to spend a lot of time with. I do have a love for animals and am happy to discuss it.

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.

Hi! I’m Kristen, a college graduate, current K–6 teacher candidate, and longtime caregiver and educator with 12 years of experience working with children. My background ranges from one-on-one disability support to preschool classrooms and groups of up to 15 children, including experience in NC 5-star and Montessori settings, tutoring, and youth programs such as NC State’s TIME-recognized Catalyst STEM program and a Teach For America tutoring fellowship. I love discovering what makes an individual child light up and building on their interests, whether that means an activity, a favorite topic, or the perfect book from my personal library. I’m also open to education-focused roles involving tutoring, homework help, enrichment, or homeschool support, and I’m happy to pitch in with meal prep, pet care, laundry, tidying, and deeper cleaning when time and the children’s needs allow. I have substantial experience supporting children with autism, ADHD, developmental and learning disabilities, physical disabilities, and visual impairments, and I’m comfortable with visual supports, first/then language, interest-based engagement, and co-regulation through difficult transitions or sensory overwhelm. While I establish my Sittercity profile, I’m offering a limited introductory rate of $12/hr for select first-time bookings. If you think I might be a good fit, send me a message and tell me a little about your family!
