Denise C., Babysitter in Oakland, TN 38060 with 25 years of paid experience

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.

Madison M., Babysitter in Oakland, TN 38060 with 10 years of paid experience

After graduating from college, I immediately entered the workforce pursuing a career in my field of study. Although I enjoy my job, I have been reminded of how much I miss being a nanny! My heart is with kids! Some of my favorite times have been cooking meals and taking children on local adventures. I am happy to help with daily household needs. Additionally, I have spent the majority of my high school and college years tutoring and would be happy to help with homework if needed. I have been CPR/AED certified as well as First Aid trained. I would love to utilize my talents and skills along with my love for kids to create a fun, safe, and secure environment that supports your family.

Kayla M., Babysitter in Oakland, TN 38060 with 10 years of paid experience

Born and raised in Tennessee, I have a deep appreciation for this beautiful area and the opportunities it offers for exploration and growth. I’m a highly experienced, nurturing, and dependable nanny with over 10 years of hands-on childcare experience, including babysitting, preschool teaching, and long-term private care. I consider myself very outdoors-oriented and believe in taking full advantage of nature through activities such as hiking, running, and outdoor play. I also have a strong creative side, with a passion for art—especially painting—which I love incorporating into age-appropriate activities that encourage imagination, confidence, and self-expression. Most recently, I worked as an au pair for an infant, caring for him from 6 months old and continuing to be part of his life as he has grown. I’m comfortable with infants, toddlers, and school-age children, and I pride myself on creating a structured yet fun environment where children feel safe, supported, and engaged. I am enthusiastic, patient, and highly responsible, with a strong understanding of child development and individual needs. My goal is always to provide a positive, enriching, and dependable presence for families while helping children thrive emotionally, socially, and creatively. I look forward to connecting with families who value high-quality, attentive childcare.
