Layla E., Babysitter in Rockford, TN 37853 with 5 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Layla and I have always loved working with children. For the past three summers, I’ve worked as a camp counselor for both overnight and day camps, and I’ve been babysitting since I was 11. Growing up, I absolutely loved hanging out with my babysitters and camp counselors, and those memories are still some of my favorites. I love doing just about any activity with children, structured or not, such as games, crafts, or sports. With early childcare coursework, First Aid and CPR certifications, and four years of hands-on childcare experience, I’m comfortable caring for up to four children, from infants to preteens. I also have experience working with neurodivergent children in both school and summer camp settings, and I understand that they are individuals who may require unique approaches, patience, and support to help them thrive. If any issues come up, I’ll communicate with parents directly at pickup or through their preferred method. I always follow household rules set by parents and feel confident in enforcing them in a positive and effective way. I look forward to meeting y'all!

Anna B., Babysitter in Rockford, TN 37853 with 3 years of paid experience

Hello everyone! I grew up watching my younger brothers and all the neighborhood kids during the summer. As I got older, I engaged in my local YMCA and other summer camps as a lifeguard and camp counselor along with babysitting for church family’s.Recently I worked a season teaching younger kids (3-9) how to ski and navigate the mountain. I also assisted in organizing the kids' program at a guests ranch for two years. I am CPR and wilderness first aid certified. Although my lifeguard certification is expired, I am comfortable around water and helping kids building confidence in the water! I am attending CSCC this fall for agribusiness. I got married in October 2025 and enjoy hiking, paddle boarding, making crafts and baking ( mostly sweet treats and bread). I am pretty open to most things and think kids should just be kids as long as they should be.

Hannah P., Babysitter in Rockford, TN 37853 with 10 years of paid experience

I would love to be considered for your babysitting position. I have more than 10 years of paid childcare experience that ranges from nannying for several families, working at a day camp, hosting children's birthday parties at paint-your-own-pottery studios, and a lot of babysitting. I've traveled extensively and I've done a lot of ministry work with children. I love working with children because I want to make a difference in their lives. I also have a Masters degree in Elementary Education from the University of Tennessee. I am CPR and First Aid Certified. I have a car and a clean driving record. I don't smoke. I'm comfortable with pets. And I'm reliable, friendly, and clean. My favorite thing to do with older kids is to take them on fun outings around the city- like splash-pads, the zoo, the pools, children's museums, trampoline places, etc. I know all the fun (and free!) places that kids love. I also have experience (and really love) caring for newborns. I am on three other nannying apps with only 5 star reviews and with background checks.

Madison E., Babysitter in Rockford, TN 37853 with 5 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Madison and I'm a recent graduate of the University of Tennessee. I married my long-term partner in May and am excited to spend the next several years working in childcare as I decide, prepare, and save for grad school. I have nannied for several families in the past, caring for children ranging from infancy to pre-teens. I also used to work as an overnight summer camp counselor. That being said, I am very comfortable caring for multiple children at a time. I am currently hoping to find a full-time nanny position with a kind, loving local family. I love children of all ages and the vibrant energy they bring. I'm an active individual and love to go on new adventures. I have recent CPR/AED/first-aid training, though it does need to be formally updated. I'm a native of Blount County, though I currently live in South Knoxville. I enjoy and am comfortable with driving, so a reasonable commute does not bother me. I am very familiar with the surrounding areas and love to provide new experiences for children in my care. I drive a Toyota RAV-4 SUV and carry a clean driving record. Safety is my utmost priority. I can provide recent academic, professional, and personal references. I also have a childcare resume with more details about my past experience. I am always open to furthering education, whether that be taking recommended classes or reading articles and books about your childrens' specific needs. I am comfortable and experienced working with children with varying disabilities as well. I'd love for you to consider me for any and all childcare tasks.

Hello! My name is Katy and to be able to watch your young ones would be a fun and exciting adventure. I’m a prior Air Force Military Police Officer for almost 14 yrs. I got out of the military when I had my daughter. I was a stay at home mom until my children could attend school, roughly 4 yrs. Worked as a Preschool TA with the Headstart Program. Switched to a Nursery Childcare Provider at a local Daycare so I could be with the babies. I missed being around them. I love seeing a child learn new things and figure out new skills. Especially with babies. It’s amazing to see them learn something for the first time. I can’t help but to get excited for and with them. During my time at the Daycare I worked in the Nursery ( 6 weeks - 10 months), Pre School ( 3 - 5 yr) and Toddler 1 ( roughly 10 months - 15 months). Switching from class to class, per the request of the Director. Doing classroom “makeovers” and squaring away the classroom for State requirements and curriculum. LOVED my job and kiddos! unfortunately I went through a long and nasty divorce. I ended up having to work two different Factory Jobs. In order to achieve a higher income and support my family. My heart and soul wasn’t in it. I’ve missed working with the little ones and now looking to do so again. Associates Degree in Criminal Justice CPR Certified and Self Aid Buddy Care Instructor Certified Attended classes for CDA Love to do arts & crafts with children, even make it a learning experience.
