Taylor B., Babysitter in Portland, TN 37148 with 4 years of paid experience

Caring for children isn’t just something I do but it’s something I genuinely love. As an education major, I’ve spent years studying child development, but more importantly, I’ve spent real time with kids: substitute teaching during school, working at The Goddard School, and always being surrounded by little ones in both personal and professional spaces. I feel at home in their world. I also understand what parents need. Especially coming from parents who love a good date night. I’ve worked with many families who just need that trusted, dependable person to step in so they can enjoy a night out without a single worry. That’s a role I take seriously. Babysitting gives me a chance to show up for both kids and their parents and that’s exactly why I’m so excited about this opportunity.

Stephanie J., Babysitter in Portland, TN 37148 with 20 years of paid experience

I enjoy working with, caring for and being around children! I have 15 years of professional child care experience: Five years in a daycare setting working with infants to 5-year-olds. Four years as a full time nanny/housekeeper/household manager for two small children. Part time nanny for 3.5 years caring for a young girl. I've also done overnight babysitting for a family throughout the last 15 yrs. I currently nanny part time for 3-year-old twins and assist a first grader through remote learning part time as well. I find it rewarding to make a positive contribution in a family setting and be a part of the upbringing of a child. I enjoy aiding in child growth and development and helping children reach their milestones. I'm reliable, responsible, caring, warm, fun and patient. I'm seeking a reliable and consistent, full time position. Please reach out, ask questions, I'm available for phone interviews and would love to visit to meet in person. Let's talk!

I have over 20 years experience watching children of all ages.  I was a foster parent several years ago.  I do know first aid and safety, where I learned CPR for infants and children as well as anti-choking techniques. My major in college was Elementary Education, but I have since changed it to Child Psychology. I love kids of all ages.  I enjoy a hands on approach and love to get down on a child's level.

Leah S., Babysitter in Portland, TN 37148 with 4 years of paid experience

I began my babysitting career for a family I hold dear. Their children, aged 8 and 10, were my responsibility for approximately three years. I thoroughly enjoyed assisting them and engaging in all the games they desired. Cooking with them was another delightful experience. While I’ve also babysat numerous other children and infants, these experiences were not continuous. I am certified in CPR. Additionally, I have a deep affection for animals of all kinds. Babysitting has always been a special endeavor for me, as it allows me to help others.

For two years I was a nanny, and I believe in a very gentle approach that quietly stimulares the baby. I also babysat in church nurseries but I far prefer being able to give one on one time.
