Madison H., Babysitter in Charleston, WV 25314 with 1 year of paid experience

I am a junior at University of Charleston pursuing my Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) with plans to continue on to become a Nurse Practitioner. I am CPR and Basic Life Support (BLS) certified, giving me the knowledge and training to handle emergencies calmly and responsibly. I am dependable, patient, and caring, and I enjoy working with children of all ages. My nursing education has strengthened my communication, safety awareness, and ability to stay organized and attentive in fast-paced situations. I strive to create a fun, safe, and positive environment for every child while giving parents peace of mind knowing their children are in good hands. Fun fact: I am a cheerleader at the University of Charleston!

I’m currently a Freshman at WVU studying criminology and political science in hopes to become a criminal lawyer. Growing up I have always been the one my family goes to when they need somebody in my family to be watched, which is why I started babysitting. I love kids, so I knew that this job would fit me well. I am skilled with infants and up, which means diaper changes and all that fun stuff. I am comfortable with pets too, so that wouldn’t be an issue. Feel free to contact me with any questions!

Maggie L., Babysitter in Charleston, WV 25314 with 1 year of paid experience

I’ve always loved working with children and have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for my 10 nieces and nephews, who range from ages 1 to 10. I’ve been babysitting them since they were born, so I’m very comfortable with infants, toddlers, and older children. I also know how to perform CPR, though I’m not currently certified. I’m patient, observant, and dependable, and I enjoy helping children learn and grow. Whether it’s assisting with schoolwork, keeping them engaged in fun activities, or simply making sure they feel safe and cared for, I put my full attention into the kids I’m watching. I recently graduated high school and plan to attend college to study respiratory therapy. I bring a caring personality, strong sense of responsibility, and a calm attitude to every babysitting job. Parents can count on me to provide a safe, positive, and supportive environment for their children.

Brianna E., Babysitter in Charleston, WV 25314 with 3 years of paid experience

I have approximately four years of experience working with children, beginning my career in a daycare setting and currently working with children with autism. Throughout my experience, I have developed a genuine passion for caring for children and helping them feel safe, supported, and encouraged as they learn and grow. My experience has allowed me to work with children of different ages, personalities, and needs. I am comfortable creating engaging activities, assisting with daily routines, encouraging positive behavior, and providing individualized care based on each child’s interests and abilities. My work with children with autism has especially strengthened my patience, communication skills, flexibility, and ability to remain calm and attentive in different situations. I am CPR and First Aid certified and understand the importance of maintaining a safe and nurturing environment. I am dependable, responsible, patient, and attentive to detail. I also value open communication with parents and believe in working together to provide consistent and quality care. I truly enjoy building meaningful relationships with the children I care for and would love the opportunity to bring my experience, compassion, and enthusiasm into a nanny role. My goal is to provide dependable care while creating a fun, positive, and comfortable environment where children can thrive.

Hi, my name is Kira Smith, and I am a recent high school graduate who is extremely passionate about helping children learn, grow, and thrive. I have over six years of childcare experience working with children from newborns to age 12, with most of my experience being with infants and toddlers ages 0–6. My childcare journey began when I was around 12 years old, helping care for my younger siblings. I regularly changed diapers, prepared meals, fed them, cleaned up after them, and helped with their daily routines. Starting childcare at such a young age helped me develop a deep love for caring for children and inspired my passion for helping little ones learn, grow, and feel safe. I have also cared for my nephew since he was just 3 months old. He is now 6 years old, and I continue to babysit him regularly, along with several other children for family members and friends. From January 2026 to May 2026, I worked as a mother’s helper for a wonderful family with two children, ages 7 months and 2 years old. My responsibilities included preparing breakfast and lunch, reading books, changing diapers, assisting with potty training, and even attending gymnastics classes with the toddler. My time with this family was filled with fun, laughter, learning, and love, and it remains one of my favorite childcare experiences and i truly miss it everyday! I am skilled in cleaning, cooking, meal preparation, diaper changes, dressing children, sleep routines, and potty-training support. I can also provide engaging activities, homework help, transportation to activities when needed, crafts, outings, and assistance with daily routines. I am patient, kind, dependable, and outgoing, and I enjoy building strong connections with both children and their families. I am comfortable working with children of all personalities and can provide support with behavioral challenges when needed. I would love the opportunity to learn more about your family and discuss how I can help. Please feel free to contact me to ask questions or schedule a call. I look forward to hearing from you! Kira Smith 🫶🏼 304-539-2544
