Find experienced babysitters in Elkview, WV

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!

Hi, my name is Nikayla! I currently work nights in EKG at Charleston Area Medical Center and am looking for daytime babysitting opportunities. I am BLS (Basic Life Support) certified and have years of hands-on childcare experience from helping care for my younger brother and many of my younger family members as the oldest sibling in a large family. I am dependable, patient, and attentive, and I understand the importance of creating a safe, positive, and nurturing environment for children. Whether it's helping with daily routines, keeping kids engaged with fun activities, assisting with homework, or simply providing reliable care while parents are away, I take pride in being someone families can trust. While I am just beginning my professional babysitting journey, caring for children has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I would love the opportunity to earn your trust and show the positive impact I can make in your home. I look forward to meeting your family and helping make your day a little easier!

Hi!! I’m currently in my 3rd of college, working on my degree in exercise science. I’ve been working as a babysitter and nanny since I could drive at 16 years old. I love kids so much and love being active and finding fun activities to do!

What I love most about working with kids is creating a fun and safe space where they can be happy. I've worked with kids from toddlers to school-aged, so I know how to change my approach to fit their age. I'm good at setting up daily routines, like making meals, planning activities, and getting them ready for bed, so everything runs smoothly. I'm a good communicator, and I'm patient, empathetic, and can handle conflicts well. I'm also good at coming up with fun games, crafts, and outdoor activities that are right for their age. I can think on my feet and stay calm in unexpected situations. Plus, I'm organized, and dependable, so parents know they can count on me. Oh, and being a mom to my 2year old definitely adds to my experience!
