Natalie A., Babysitter in Southport, NC 28461 with 10 years of paid experience

Hi! I am a highly qualified babysitter and my passion for kids is endless! As an older sister of two younger brothers, I became a second mommy growing up which, in turn, grew my passion for childcare. I have been babysitting for 10 years and have experience as a summer nanny (2 years). My childcare journey began with babysitting and nannying, then I was a preschool teacher for almost 2 years, followed by pediatric ABA therapy practice as Registered Behavior Technician (RBT). I am a recent graduate of CFCC from their Occupational Therapy Assistant program and am now a board certified Occupational Therapy Assistant! My experience as a preschool teacher, RBT, and OTA student has made me proficient in teaching social skills, academic skills, positive behavior interventions, developmentally appropriate life skills, and functional communication. These professions have given me the patience, playfulness, and compassion necessary to care for little ones and help them learn through play! I also am a Character Performer on the side and regularly do parties and events as Moana and Jasmine. I am currently in school to become an Occupational Therapy Assistant and my dream is to help kids with different abilities become their best, most independent selves! I am a Basic Life Support provider and CPR/AED/First Aid certified (Adult and Pediatric) through the American Heart Association. I love children and love providing the care, support, and play they need to grow, feel loved, and, most importantly, have fun! Among the kids I've cared for, I'm known for planning fun activities (most recently craft parties, playing "school", bug hunts, and more). In addition to the fun, I also provide tutoring/help with homework, cleaning around the house, pet care, and extra help in any other areas you need!

My name is Zi’Asia, but everyone calls me “Asia”. I am 22 years old and I recently graduated from North Carolina Central University. I am very entertaining and an energetic person plus I absolutely love children! I previously worked as a Support Teacher/Floater at Primrose facility, so I have my SIDS certification and I also have my CPR/FIRST Aid certification. I’ve gain a lot of experience working with Primrose and other childcare facilities; moreover, I am certified to be a Lead Teacher. I am open to tidying up the house while I care for the children. Please don’t hesitate to ask for assistance with the household including errands.

Leah S., Babysitter in Southport, NC 28461 with 10 years of paid experience

Hi! I'm a 31-year-old professional with over 5 years of childcare experience, including work as a full-time nanny. I hold a Bachelor's in Psychology and a Master's in Social Work. I currently work as a therapist, so I bring a deep understanding of child development, communication, and emotional needs to every job. I'm CPR and First Aid certified and comfortable with kids of all ages, from infants to teens. Whether it's soothing a fussy baby, helping with homework and big feelings, or just keeping the evening fun and easy, I'm patient, attentive, and genuinely love this work. Parents can expect clear communication, consistency, and someone who treats their house rules and their kids' needs seriously. I'm looking for extra sitting work alongside my therapy practice, so I bring a calm, steady presence, nothing rattles me easily. Looking forward to meeting your family!

Naomi V., Babysitter in Southport, NC 28461 with 22 years of paid experience

I have 22 yrs experience in child care with 17 yrs as a nanny. I am looking for a full time long term position with a family to grow with. I am currently working for a family with a 5yr old and 2.5yr old. I have been with them for over 3 yrs. Their needs have changed due to school so I am looking for something with more hours. I also have a daughter who is 10. The families I work for love having her around on occasions when she's not in school or with her dad. I will adhere to any routine your family has in place or help you form one specific to your child's needs. I provide age appropriate learning/playtime in the home and outings with parents approval. We love exploring outside, beach, park, a walk around the neighborhood but also staying inside doing arts and crafts or learning activities. My priority is providing a safe and loving environment for children to learn and grow. Communication is also a top priority. Please message me any questions and I would love to send you my resume with references!

Why do you love being a sitter? I love being a sitter because I truly enjoy being around kids and being someone they can feel safe, comfortable, and cared for with. Having grown up in foster care, I understand how important it is for children to have someone who is patient, supportive, and genuinely there for them. My experiences have given me a strong desire to help kids feel valued, heard, and cared for. I want to be a positive and dependable person in their lives, even if it’s just for a few hours. What experience do you have? I have experience caring for younger siblings while growing up in foster care, which taught me responsibility, patience, and how to understand and care for children with different needs and personalities. I also worked at a summer camp, and I absolutely loved it! I enjoyed spending time with the kids, planning activities, keeping them safe, and getting to know their individual personalities. Working at camp confirmed for me how much I enjoy working with children. What skills and training do you have? I am CPR trained and take safety and responsibility seriously. I’m patient, caring, dependable, and understanding. I’m also good at keeping kids engaged and making sure they feel included and comfortable. Most importantly, I bring genuine compassion and understanding to working with children. My own experiences have taught me that sometimes having one caring adult around can make a big difference, and I would love to be that person for the families I work with.
