Find experienced babysitters in Oakland, TN

Hello! My name is Jasmine. I am 24 years old and I have a strong passion for children. I love the outdoors and having new experiences. Outgoing, positive, hospitable, and cooperative attitude. I have worked with children for six years in many different environments. I have worked at a daycare working with children from infant to preschool helping them with school work, educational enrichment, arts and crafts, and sports. I also worked at the YMCA with school age children. Along with being a preschool teacher assistant. I have worked in a dance camp for 3 years; teaching children different dance techniques and broadening their knowledge of dance. I also taught at a cheer camp that focused on children of all ages interested in the sport of cheer. I worked as a summer camp counselor with children ages 5-12. In this camp, we focused on arts and crafts; sports and health; and the importance of loving nature.

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.

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.

Hello! I’m someone who genuinely loves working with children and creating spaces where they can grow, learn, and feel secure. I’ve always had a natural connection with kids — teaching, guiding, and helping them explore the world around them is something I truly enjoy. I started babysitting at the age of twelve for church members and I’ve loved it ever since. This helped me get into the career path of being a teacher at Faith Lutheran Preschool in Collierville, TN. I also find it therapeutic to keep a child’s environment clean and functional— when their space feels calm and organized, it helps them (and parents!) feel more at ease. I’m happy to help with light household duties such as meal prep, homework help, pet care, and care for little ones who aren’t feeling well. Families describe me as dependable, patient, and nurturing. My goal is to make your home feel supported and your children cared for as if they were my own!
