Find experienced babysitters in Oakland, TN

Hiii, I’m Kynnedi, a 20 year-old nursing major college student. I have been a sitter for 8 years, watching children from an infant to preteens. I’ve watched kids at church to babysitting at individual homes. I love kids and been raised in a large family being the oldest of 5.

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.

Hello! My name is Bonnie, but I go by Skylar. I’m a military kid and my dad is a veteran from his 20 year Air Force career and 10 year Naval career. . I’m 18 years old and a college student.

Hello! My name is Maya, and I am a compassionate, energetic, and dedicated caregiver with extensive experience working with infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Biology from Rust College, and I’ve built a strong background in childcare through both professional positions and hands-on roles with families. I formerly worked as an Infant & Toddler Teacher at Porter-Leath, where I supported early childhood development through structured routines, nurturing care, and age-appropriate learning activities. My experience also includes being a Teacher Assistant at Riverwood Elementary School, helping facilitate classroom instruction and providing one-on-one support to students. Also, working as a caregiver through WYNDY, a Nanny Agency, where I adapted to the needs of each family, promoted healthy habits, encouraged positive behavior, and maintained a safe, clean environment. I’ve led youth programs as a Group Leader at the YMCA, planned engaging activities, and served as a positive role model. My background in customer service has strengthened my communication, patience, multitasking, and problem-solving skills—qualities that help me build trusting relationships with both children and parents. I love creating fun, educational experiences, whether through arts and crafts, outdoor adventures, sensory play, or early learning activities. Safety is always my priority, and I take pride in helping children feel secure, supported, and confident as they grow. Outside of work, I enjoy dancing, yoga, creating social media content for my followers, watching my favorite YouTubers, and staying active through various workouts. I bring this same energy and positivity into my childcare style. I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide reliable, nurturing care tailored to your child’s needs.

I have a passion for working with children. I have a degree specializing in child development - specifically child psychology and expressive arts therapy. I’ve spent the last 8 years nannying and teaching music. My goal is to foster a tailored environment for each child in my care, as all children learn and grow differently. I believe a well balanced combination of unstructured child-led exploration(ie make believe, pretend play, dancing etc) and structured activities (ie educational content, crafts, reading etc) creates an atmosphere where children thrive. I follow “gentle parenting” practices and encourage age-appropriate communication and redirection when necessary.
