Emily B., Babysitter in Leicester, NC 28748 with 4 years of paid experience

I absolutely adore connecting, caring for, and exploring with children! I am first aid and CPR certified. I have 4 years of experience with paid babysitting, as well as 15 years of experience watching kids of all ages (including infants) for family and friends. Last summer, I was a full time mountain bike lead camp counselor for 6-8 year olds, planning daily/weekly schedules and ensuring proper care in regard to heat index and food consumption. It was such a rewarding experience to watch the kids learn and grow confidence in their abilities while maintaining safety as a top priority! I have immense patience and meet children where they are. I am comfortable and have experience with animals of all sizes. I can cook, meal prep, clean, help with homework (I have a BA in Mathematics and Statistics and tutoring experience), handle appointments, and I have my own car with a good driving record. I love being creative and active as well! This includes designing engaging activities suited to the child's preferences. I'd love to be a great addition to your family's resources :)

I'm a graduate of Appalachian State University where I received my Bachelors Degree in Music Education with focus in voice. I love teaching and am very active in the music community. Outside of teaching general music and chorus classes, I continue to perform as a soloist and apart of ensembles. In my spare time I enjoy spending time with family and friends, hiking, playing racketball and love water-sports. This is my 14th year teaching.

Anastasiia K., Babysitter in Leicester, NC 28748 with 3 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Anastasiia Korsun, and I’m 19 years old. I have a deep love for caring for babies and children of all ages. Being a sitter brings me so much joy because I get to help children feel safe, happy, and engaged while giving parents peace of mind. I have experience caring for babies and children of different ages, ensuring they are well looked after, entertained, and safe. I can prepare meals, do light house cleaning, take kids for walks, and always prioritize their well-being. I am very responsible, kind, and attentive to every child's needs. Plus, I speak five languages—English, Spanish, Ukrainian, Russian, and Polish—which allows me to communicate with many families easily. I look forward to meeting your family and providing loving, reliable care for your little ones! 😊

Bryn M., Babysitter in Leicester, NC 28748 with 8 years of paid experience

My name is Bryn and I graduated a year and half ago from Cal Poly with my Bachelors. I have over seven years of babysitting/nannying experience, with children mainly from 8 months and up. I nannied full time during 2020 for one year for two toddlers (14 months and 2.5 years at the start). Most of my other experience has been with 1-2-year-old toddlers as I worked part time for three years at a local Church's childcare programs and I absolutely loved it. I also have experience with a variety of special needs children and multiples.

Virginia K., Babysitter in Leicester, NC 28748 with 12 years of paid experience

Hey there! I’m Virginia, and I’m a recent college graduate who relocated to Asheville in August 2022. I have twelve years of babysitting experience under my belt, as I’ve been an active childcare provider for families in my neighborhood and extended community since I was in middle school. I am a communicative, personable, and reliable sitter who brings creativity and energy to every nannying experience I pursue. My personal passions include reading, writing, playing guitar, watercoloring, collaging, cooking, and baking, which means I love to design hands-on, artistic activities with the children I care for. Additionally, I love being outdoors, hiking, biking, and enjoying nature, which means walks, playground time, and backyard fun are all favorite parts of my babysitting days. I look forward to meeting you and your family and can’t wait to learn more about your hopes and expectations for a caregiver!

Brook W., Babysitter in Leicester, NC 28748 with 11 years of paid experience

I'm 25 years old with 11 years of experience nannying young children ages 1mo-12yrs. I have been an at-home school tutor, I've taught gymnastics at The Little Gym, guitar to ages 8-13 and swimming lessons to ages 3-5. I have taught at an elementary school in Logan, Utah and I lived in San Francisco as a nanny for a family of four, for about a year. I graduated with an associates from Utah State University in Childhood Development and a bachelors in Media Studies from University of Utah. I love being around kids and enjoy putting their fun, crazy imaginations to good use. It brings me joy to see kids be active, happy, and developing new skills/ opening up their mind a little. I have a car and I am wiling to run any errands needed, along with cleaning the house, doing laundry and teaching children an array of new things. Because of my extensive experience with nannying and teaching children, my minimum payment is $20/hr. If you are interested, shoot me a message!! Side Note: I take TONS of pictures and videos of the kids I nanny for and compile them into a fun homemade video with music. The families I have nannied for in the past have LOVED this. I've always been into videography and enjoy creating videos. This wouldn't come at any extra cost, its just a fun hobby I have. :)

Tiffany M., Babysitter in Leicester, NC 28748 with 9 years of paid experience

I am a mom of two and work in a local charter school. I foster meaningful engagement and healthy child development. I have a genuine love for children and my greatest goal is to create healthy environments for children to thrive in. Over the past decade+, I have worked with various families in the Asheville area with children ages 1-15. Currently, I am babysitting on an as needed basis. I am also available to help the families I sit for in other ways with overnight sitting and house/pet sitting as needed. I feel comfortable with all age groups and I make a point to nurture sensory and other learning experiences in a fun way. I am also quite comfortable in dealing with the "not so pretty" moments - irritability, crying, diapers, etc. and have become accustomed to helping in other ways with light housework, cooking, tutoring, and whatever else might be helpful to the family. I have experience counseling youth with emotional, behavioral, and developmental challenges as well and am highly sensitive to these needs as a sitter. I encourage outdoor and creative play, and I enjoy providing challenges that are both safe and rewarding. Ideally, I am looking for someone who is looking for an occasional babysitter for a weekend day or evening or for temporary assignments during the summer. I welcome multi-family sits or “mom-nanny” arrangements in support of socialization with either or both of my children (2 and 5) as well.

Lake B.

Lake  B., Babysitter in Leicester, NC 28748 with 14 years of paid experience

I've worked with kids in one way or another since 2008. My main reason for making myself available on this platform is to help parents of children with special needs find reliable, worry-free child care. Having worked in the Behavioral Therapy (ABA) world for over a decade, I know how hard it can be to find child care for a kiddo with atypical behaviors; and that it's against the rules for most companies who provide therapy services to also provide babysitting. My experience includes: Autism, ADHD, ODD, Down Syndrome, OCD, anxiety, dyslexia, dysgraphia, aggression, sensory processing, deaf/hearing impaired, learning disabilities, and children in need of general behavioral shaping. I am a Certified Behavior Technician, semi-fluent in ASL (American sing language), NC Early Educator Certified, and CPR/First Aid trained. I currently work with kids on the spectrum and I thought it would be nice to offer families some relief in the sense of knowing they can leave their, not disabled, but differently able, children with an experienced caregiver. It's a full time job to be a parent and I believe it is so important to be able to get away and TAKE A BREAK! If anyone has seen it all, it's me! If you think your child is too difficult to leave with someone, let me prove you wrong! Having gone into dozens of homes for home therapy, I am very comfortable doing so for babysitting as well. Children with special needs have my heart and I am a natural when it comes to caring for them in a therapeutic, creative way. *I have my own materials, reinforcers, fidgets, and a plethora of sensory satisfying toys. *My rates are high for a reason-but please reach out if needed. I can be flexible. 🙂 *I am open to babysitting typical functioning children. Reach out about rates. *I am open to referrals, if you see this and know of someone who could benefit from my experience, please don’t hesitate to link us!
