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!

I’ve been babysitting for many years now, and I have a lot of experience with all ages. I get along great with kids and their parents, and my schedule is extremely flexible! I manage my time very well, and I respect the parents time as well so I would never be late. I am also a very clean person and was raised to clean up after myself, so I will make sure your house is in good condition as well!

Destiny M.
- 5 years paid experience
- 11 miles
Hello, I’m Destiny! I’m 26 years old, and caring for children has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember. I started working with young children around age 12, and by 13 I had already taken a CPR course for infants through adults. I wanted to make sure that in a worst-case scenario, I’d have the skills to help save a life. What truly sets me apart as a sitter is my natural, fun, and uplifting personality that kids gravitate toward. Children respect me and listen to me because of the way I communicate with them and never at them. I’m patient, understanding, and genuinely enjoy making their time with me both safe and enjoyable.

Brooke W.
- 10 years paid experience

Hi there! My name is Brooke. I am a 24-year-old female and a first-year law student. I have been babysitting for teachers, friends, family, and working professionals for over 12 years. I enjoy all ages and finding creative ways to encourage growth and development with littles whether that is through structured homework, arts and crafts, or even sports. I especially enjoy working with infants as they have so much love and snuggles to give, and require such delicate care that is hard to find in babysitters. I treat each family as if they are my own because they are! When asked, my friends and family described me as "warm, caring, patient and mature". My positive attitude, critical thinking skills, as well as CPR and certified lifeguard qualifications are sure to be an asset to your home! I have my own transportation (SUV) with a clean driving record and 4 years of experience driving with infants/children/teens. (Seatbelts are a non-negotiable, even for the teens). I am looking for part-time work during the week and full-time work during the weekends. Light housework and animal-sitting is negotiable as well! Please let me know if my assets and services would be a good fit for your home and family!

I am an energetic but gentle caregiver to children. I can keep up with all the tiffs, and entertain for hours! I love the outdoors so that’s always one thing I encourage with my interactions. A little about myself, I am originally from Washington, I have lived here in South Carolina for 5 years and I’m loving it so far, I am a big family/ animal person, so caring to families that need so, is definitely a passion of mine.

My name is Phoebe, I'm 32 years old and I'm from Beaufort, SC. I've lived in the Charleston area since 2009 and I currently live in Summerville with my partner and our two dogs. I am looking for supplemental income as I am in real estate and the market isn't exactly ideal. My parents and sister are all teachers, my mother specifically worked with babies and I spent a good deal of my childhood babysitting for family and friends. I graduated from College of Charleston with a BS in Sociology and minor in Psych. I also went to schooling for half of my masters in Social Work and have worked with Intensive Foster Care as well as Teen & Adult mental health groups at MUSC. I am great with kids and have a lot of energy for outdoor activities, games, learning & exploring. I also love animals. I am not afraid to get dirty. I consider myself a cook and a natural organizer. If you need help with household chores I don't mind. If you're a nice family looking for a trustworthy, smart and fun babysitter+ ... I'm your girl!

I love being a sitter because it gives me the chance to support children in a more personal, one-on-one setting. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids, helping them feel safe, engaged, and cared for. It’s incredibly rewarding to be someone children can trust and look up to, and I value the opportunity to help families feel confident that their child is in good hands. I have over 3 years of experience as a babysitter, caring for children of various ages, from toddlers to elementary school-aged kids. In addition, I’m an elementary school teacher, so I bring professional insight into child development, learning, and behavior management. I’ve handled after-school routines, bedtime, meals, light housekeeping, and engaging kids in both fun and educational activities. As a certified elementary teacher, I’m trained in classroom management, child safety, and age-appropriate learning strategies. I’m also CPR and First Aid certified. My strengths include patience, communication, creativity, and the ability to connect with children on their level. I’m experienced in maintaining routines, supporting learning, and managing multiple responsibilities while keeping children safe and happy.
