Hi, my name is Mary. I am 24 years old I was born and raised in the Wilmington area. I have had many short term and long term babysitting and nannying jobs over the last 10 years. I have experience with children ranging from toddlers to preteens and everywhere in between. I love arts and crafts, music, and animals (so pets are more of a plus than a problem). I have my own car and a clean driving record. I look forward to hearing from you!

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). My experience as a preschool teacher and an RBT has made me proficient in teaching social skills, academic skills, positive behavior interventions, 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!

Hi everyone! ☀️ I’m a college music performance major looking for nannying or babysitting opportunities this summer while I take a community college class and stay with family. A little about my experience: • CPR & First Aid certified • Harp teacher • Former swim instructor • Tutored students in schoolwork • Experience working with children with special needs • Taught kindergarten & preschool at my church • Volunteered teaching an after-school program for 2nd graders at a public school •Over 7 years of babysitting/nannying experience I’ve babysat children of all ages — including newborns (as young as 2 months old), premature twins, and families with up to 5 children at a time. I’m very comfortable caring for infants alongside older siblings as well. I love being creative, planning fun activities, doing arts & crafts, spending time outside, and being playful and silly to make kids feel safe and happy. I’m also happy to help with light household tasks or running errands. I have multiple references available upon request.

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

Nice to meet you! I’m Kimmy, a responsible, energetic sitter with 10+ years of experience caring for children of all ages. I’ve worked in both private homes and daycare settings, with kids ranging from newborns to 10 years old. I’m the oldest of five siblings, so caregiving is second nature to me! I’m also a certified personal trainer, which means I have a flexible schedule and plenty of energy to keep up with busy little ones. I’m attentive, patient, and always focused on making sure kids feel safe, supported, and have fun. I’m also comfortable with pets! I have a friendly 6 y/o husky-lab mix at home. Whether you need occasional help, regular care, or last-minute support, I’m happy to be there for your family!

I have worked with special needs Children and adults for the last five years I specialize in young children because I believe that what I do you will make a huge impact on how the stride and I love the fact that I couldn’t be such a big part of how they 16 my favorite part of working with children is when they learn a new skill that they didn’t have prior. I have also spent the majority of my life volunteering with summer camps daycare’s boys and girls clubs and whatever volunteer work I could do as well as not child related such as food banks hospital is hospice just around my community to see what I can do for the difference. I have also worked with doing Home health and home care such as bathing feeding dressing light household work running errands anything that could be needed as well as just being a sympathetic companion if they needed it

Ava R., Babysitter in Southport, NC 28461 with 2 years of paid experience

Hey Wilmington! My experience ranges from equine therapy/babysitting with children aged 3-13, along with nannying most recently for a ten month old. I’m from a family of 5 kids, so this job feels more like a second nature to me. I’m happy to help with house chores, following parental guidelines, and helping create a loving and overall happy environment whenever I’m around. My childcare style is very calm and positive.
