Annie S., Babysitter in Portland, TN 37148 with 13 years of paid experience

Hi there! I’m Annie — a compassionate, experienced childcare provider with over 13 years of hands-on experience caring for children from newborns to pre-teens. I’ve always loved being a sitter because I see every child as their own little universe — full of curiosity, creativity, and potential. Getting to support that growth and help them feel safe, seen, and confident is what keeps me passionate about this work. My childcare journey has included everything from full-time nannying and multiple overnight stays to classroom work as a one-on-one special education assistant. I’ve supported children with behavioral disorders, ADHD, autism, and trauma backgrounds, and I’m skilled at creating calm, structured, and nurturing environments where kids can thrive. In addition to my years of experience, I bring patience, emotional intelligence, and strong communication skills. I’m CPR and First Aid trained, have reliable transportation, and pride myself on being dependable, creative, and engaged — whether we’re doing crafts, reading stories, or exploring outdoors. If you’re looking for someone who balances warmth with professionalism and truly loves helping children grow, I’d love to connect with your family.

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.
