Hi, my name is Courtney Thomas, I am a 26 year-old experienced caregiver who loves working with infants and toddlers! I started working in Childcare at the age of 14. I volunteered at a daycare called The Little School at Duke in NC, with children ages 8 months to a year old. I later on became babysitter certified with first aid and began babysitting for various NC families for pay. After working for my first family, I became CPR AED certified for infants through adults, and later on got my BLS. My other experiences come from working in summer camps, my church nursery, previous nanny jobs, and as a preschool teacher assistant. I've also worked as a sensory motor coach for Brain Balance Achievement Centers with children ages 4-16 years old, along with newborn- elderly as a Neurodiagnostic Technologist for 3.5 years. I have always enjoyed working with young children and I have a special love for infants and toddlers. I am currently available for occasional/date night sitting, along with backup if your primary caregiver is sick or unavailable. I have references and reviews pending, and my availability has some flexibility. Feel free to contact me! -Thank you!

Hi I’m Zion I’ve always had a deep love for children. Growing up, I was constantly surrounded by little ones because my grandmother ran her own daycare. From a young age, I helped care for babies and toddlers, and eventually I was trusted to care for a newborn full-time when he was just three weeks old. That experience taught me patience, responsibility, and just how rewarding it is to build a bond with a child. Kids naturally gravitate toward me, and I do my best to create a fun, safe, and nurturing environment for every child I care for. I’m reliable, attentive, and passionate about helping families feel confident that their little ones are in good hands. I’d love the opportunity to bring my experience and heart for caregiving to your family! Although I’m not currently certified in CPR or other training programs, I’m very responsible, quick to learn, and always do my absolute best. I take pride in creating a safe, loving, and fun environment for them. I would be honored to earn your trust and care for your little ones like they were my own.

Hi! My name is Olivia, and caring for others has always been a big part of my life. I’ve loved being around children for as long as I can remember and have spent many years helping care for kids within my own family. From babies to school-aged children, I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy creating a safe, calm, and fun environment. While much of my childcare experience has been with family, I also have professional experience working with individuals with special needs. This has helped me develop strong skills in patience, communication, safety awareness, and emotional support. I’m comfortable following routines, handling challenging moments with care, and adapting to each child’s unique needs. Families can count on me to be dependable, kind, and respectful of their home and parenting style. I take pride in being someone children feel comfortable with and parents can trust. I would love the opportunity to support your family and care for your little ones as if they were my own.

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.

I love working with kids because I get to see how a little human has so much personality, intelligence and capability of doing great things. I was an au pair for two years and took care of a kid with autism, from the age of 4 until he was 6 years old, who is now my long distance brother. We created a very special bond and miss him every single day. Before that, I worked with a new born, and older kids I’m very patient, loving and comprehensive with kids, and pets.
