Sittercity helps Heiskell families find the best babysitters

As a caregiver, my passion lies in nurturing the growth and development of your kids. I have a patient and calm demeanor and my ability to make simple daily tasks fun are what separates me from other caregivers. I believe in open communication with parents, and regularly providing updates on activities throughout the day. Engaging with your children in a meaningful way is very important to me and I work closely with families to establish that bond with your child. Your family time is also precious and if there is anything else I can do while your baby and children sleep(s) , like washing bottles, and light housework, that is the full service care that I like to provide families with. I look forward to meeting you and your children :)

Hello! My name is Madison and I'm a recent graduate of the University of Tennessee. I married my long-term partner in May and am excited to spend the next several years working in childcare as I decide, prepare, and save for grad school. I have nannied for several families in the past, caring for children ranging from infancy to pre-teens. I also used to work as an overnight summer camp counselor. That being said, I am very comfortable caring for multiple children at a time. I am currently hoping to find a full-time nanny position with a kind, loving local family. I love children of all ages and the vibrant energy they bring. I'm an active individual and love to go on new adventures. I have recent CPR/AED/first-aid training, though it does need to be formally updated. I'm a native of Blount County, though I currently live in South Knoxville. I enjoy and am comfortable with driving, so a reasonable commute does not bother me. I am very familiar with the surrounding areas and love to provide new experiences for children in my care. I drive a Toyota RAV-4 SUV and carry a clean driving record. Safety is my utmost priority. I can provide recent academic, professional, and personal references. I also have a childcare resume with more details about my past experience. I am always open to furthering education, whether that be taking recommended classes or reading articles and books about your childrens' specific needs. I am comfortable and experienced working with children with varying disabilities as well. I'd love for you to consider me for any and all childcare tasks.

Hi! I'm Sidney. I'm a junior at UT, and I'm looking for a chance to spend time with some sweet kids and make some money when I'm not in class. (This means I'll only be able to commit through the end of the semester, and I'll need some flexibility surrounding holidays and breaks.) I've been a babysitter and summer camp counselor on and off for years, and working with kids has always been my favorite job. I actually volunteer at my church VBS every summer because I love working with kids so much. As an experienced camp counselor, I am comfortable caring for multiple kids at once, and I have lots of experience with entertaining and caring for high energy and special needs kids. I've been told by fellow camp counselors and camp supervisors that I'm good at commanding a room, and I know how to get a group of kids to listen while still being viewed as fun and caring. I'm an older sibling, and I've been babysitting/working with kids since middle school, and I've been a summer camp counselor since high school. I have experience tutoring, including kids with learning disabilities/special needs, so I'm always happy to provide homework help. Everyone learns differently, so I love helping children actually understand what they're being taught in school! I'm trained in first aid and CPR, and I have my own car and am comfortable driving with kids. I can cook, clean, do dishes, help with laundry, etc. I'm good with routines, and I'll enforce house rules. I stay off my phone as much as possible when I'm with kids, and I'm happy to enforce any screen time rules you keep in your house. If you need references, I'm happy to provide them!
