Swinn was great! Communicated well ahead of time and handled our little one (1.5 years old) well. Her experience is clear and made working with her a breeze. Highly recommend!

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.

Hello! My name is Becky Burmester. I am an active grandma of 5 and was a foster parent for 25 years. With more time on my hands, I have recent babysitting references. I would love to help out other families. I have experience with all ages of children but most extensive experience with infants. I am first aid certified and cpr certified. I am COVID vaccinated. My philosophy is that as a sitter my sole job is to interact with the child(ren) and supervise all activities. I live near Buffalo and New Hope Roads. I am pet friendly.

We feel so lucky to have found Becky. She has watched our children twice and even rescued us last minute when another sitter cancelled, and each time she has been absolutely wonderful. She brings such a calm, experienced presence. It’s clear she’s very comfortable with children and knows how to balance being kind and warm while also maintaining clear boundaries. Our preschooler took to her immediately. On Valentine’s Day we returned home to lovely painted cards that were so special. As parents, the reliability and peace of mind she provides are invaluable. Knowing someone so capable and thoughtful is with our children allows us to truly relax while we’re out. We’re incredibly grateful for her help and would recommend her without hesitation to any family looking for a dependable, experienced, and caring sitter.

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.

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.

She is excellent with our girls. She is friendly, warm, bubbly, great communicator, takes initiative. I’m so overjoyed. Since our children are infants the importance of language exposure and sensory activities is critical. She meets the mark. So grateful.

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.

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.
