Kayla L., Babysitter in Dorchester, SC 29437 with 9 years of paid experience

I am a CSU student. I graduated from Summerville HS in 2015, and during my free time I spent countless hours volunteering at Old Fort Baptist church in the children's outreach program. I worked at Christway Worship Center's children summer camp. I also babysit my 'kid' brother after school and on weekends and have been doing it for over 7 years. I am no stranger to sick babies/children. I'm not clueless on how to change a diaper or even teaching a child how to use the toilet, and properly wash their hands. I've done it all. I do cook, and will cook if wanted/needed. I also help with homework and any school activities that children have. I would just like to add that I am great with all children that I take care of, and the children that I have taken care of find me to be an enjoyment. Every child is beyond important, and should be treated as such, and that is what I live by.

My kids loved her my daughter even whined after she left that she didn't want Ms.Kayla to go. I know they had a lot of fun and they asked when she would get to come back.

Josalyn S., Babysitter in Dorchester, SC 29437 with 4 years of paid experience

Hi there! I’m Josalyn, and I’ve been a nanny for two years, along with babysitting experience since I can remember. I currently care for a 6-year-old, who I pick up from school each day at 2:15 PM. I’m looking to provide care on Wednesday and Friday mornings or any day after 1 PM. During my care hours, I would bring your child with me to pick up my current nanny kid from school, and then we’d head back to my home. If it’s in the morning, it would also be at my house! I have no issue picking up and dropping off! At my house, your child will enjoy a fun and safe environment with a pool in the backyard and a playground nearby in Midtown Nexton, Summerville, SC. I can also provide references to give you peace of mind. I’m also available for date nights on weekdays after 5:30! I can’t wait to meet your family and create some joyful memories together!

Lydia W., Babysitter in Dorchester, SC 29437 with 5 years of paid experience

I was a foster parent for 7 years. I am CPR and first aid certified. Hands on play time and attention is how I work with kiddos. Age appropriate arts and crafts, reading books, and singing/dancing are my favorite activities with kiddos. Infants, toddlers and young children are my specialty. I believe in healthy meals, hands on playtime, being present with the kiddos and setting reasonable boundaries so they can build confidence. Routine is important for all children to succeed. I love to make play a learning experience. Learning outside through exploring, inside helping with food prep (kids will eat more if they are involved with helping), arts and crafts, reading books or games. I love watching their minds learn, grow and build confidence. I have worked with medical fragile infants who have excelled within my care. I also work from home during the week so I have flexibility to accommodate at my house if needed last minute. I am still set up for fostering children, I just do not have my home open for them. My house has been fire inspected and passed.
