I graduated from UNC in 2005 with a degree in philosophy and psychology, and I have taken many child development classes. I'm interested in the environment and working with kids. I have been baby-sitting regularly for 25 years. I am willing to provide references upon request but would prefer not to post any online. I was a preschool teacher and have worked with children of all ages, but primarily with ages 1-5. I like cooking and craft activities and enjoy being outside. I have done overnight baby-sitting and traveled with families. I am willing to baby-sit for large families or two families together - I am used to working with a group of six at school and enjoy working with larger groups of children. I currently work full time as a nanny but am available in the evenings, weekends, and for overnights for baby-sitting. I am also available to transport your child from your home to your child's school. I enjoy seeing children learn and show passion in whatever is interesting to them. I love watching children grow and figure things out - it's so exciting to me to see a child who was struggling with something conquer it! I love to hear a child tell me all about something that is interesting to them. I believe that adults learn from children as much as children learn from adults, and I look forward to opportunities to learn from your kids. I am comfortable with all kinds of pets and don't mind doing pet care while I'm baby-sitting. I am also an experienced pet-sitter.

Denny cared for our 2 year-old daughter with a lot of attention and eased our minds about hiring a sitter. She didn't turn on the TV once, which I really appreciated! She arrived on time and as an added bonus, gave our cat some loving snuggles :) Highly recommend!

I became a caregiver because I have always loved taking care of others and helping out and because I am the oldest of 6 so it was a given responsibility. I have been working with children since I was 7 years old and because of my love for it I continue to do it today. I previously worked in a church nursery attending to children ages 6 weeks- 4 years old, a daycare(2-3 year olds), and babysit for friends and family when I can. I am CPR certified and a non-smoker. I am very dedicated and passionate about taking care of children. I hope to meet your sitter needs.

I’m working towards a business degree to become a financial advisor. I love taking care of others. I was previously in pre-med until I was in a car accident that broke my back, and I am now unable to pursue that career path. I have 0 years of paid experience, however I have a few years of experience by watching the little kids in my neighborhood (ages 4-10). I am CPR and First-Aid certified. I have my own vehicle, I easily connect with children, and babysitting has always been a passion of mine. I also took care of my grandmother while she was sick before she passed. I take care of animals as well. Feel free to set up a call so we can discuss care needs!
