Hey! My name is Carla Anders. I am 33 years old and I am a FULL-TIME nanny/babysitter. I have been nannying for 8 and a half years. I have kept infants from 6 weeks old to children up to12 years old. I love working with children as I feel they are God’s gift to us. I am CPR certified and have an Early Childhood Education Certificate. I can give full references. I am currently in the Madison area and I am willing to relocate. I like to take the kids to parks and Museums. I like to do outdoor activities as well. I am very active and I pay attention to children non-stop while they are in my care. I really hope you consider me as a nanny/babysitter. You will not be disappointed. Thank you in advance.

Rakaela  T., Child Care in Ridgeland, MS 39157 with 3 years of paid experience

I have been watching my younger cousins since I was 11 years old. I’ve made them meals, provided entertainment, and run errands for my auntie once I got a car. Once I got into the real world. I started being a teaching assistant, and have been for the past 3 years. Which is basically another form of babysitting, with fun games and guidance. I love kids and allowing them to find themselves. One of my main missions in life is too provide kids with a space to be their most authentic self as long as they are with me. I am patient, kind, and responsible. I am a very organized, respectful, and resilient woman. I love keeping my own space clean. I have experience with housekeeping, plant care, and cat sitting as well. I am professional actress trying to save up money for grad school! I have all of my evenings available as I have part time job during the day.

Tanya N., Child Care in Ridgeland, MS 39157 with 3 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Tanya. I’m a native Californian but I’ve lived in MS for over 25 years now. I love the slower pace of life here and the kindness and warmth of the people. I’m a mother myself, having raised a 14-year-old son. I served as a college administrator in Jackson for many years, after receiving a master’s degree and working toward a Ph.D. in French, and studying and working abroad. At this point in my life, I firmly believe that having a career as a nanny, preferably with infants, is my calling. I adore babies, having cared for newborns as young as 8 weeks old. I pride myself on providing loving, nurturing care while helping babies thrive as they develop cognitively, physically, and emotionally. I am extremely reliable, attentive, mature, an excellent communicator, and always provide a safe, supportive environment for the children in my care. With my near-native fluency in the language, I also love teaching children French from birth, as I did with my own son. I have been working as a professional nanny for over 3 years now, primarily with infants, including newborns and twins. I have received training in both Infant First Aid and Infant CPR.

Kimmoro J., Child Care in Ridgeland, MS 39157 with 2 years of paid experience

Hello Everyone, My Name is Kimmoro, I’m 18 years old, an upcoming freshman in college. I’ve been babysitting for about a year now, but still new and learning. I love working with children because it provides an opportunity to teach them life lessons, useful skills, important knowledge, and to grow with them. Working with children can be the most difficult but yet rewarding. As you I look after and teach children in my care, i will build strong bonds that will carry with me forever. What sets me apart is my commitment and personality. I’m currently getting CPR certified and I hope you guys will consider me for the job. Thank you so much!

I love being a sitter because I get to experience the joy of children. I love to see their faces light up when I teach them something new or when we are just having fun. I have worked in a Montessori daycare for almost over 2 years and I just enjoy the blessing of being able to encounter different little people.

That bio box is basically asking you to market yourself as safe, warm, competent, and trustworthy without sounding like you were assembled by the Care.com corporate communications department. Given your psychology background, I’d lean into your understanding of development, patience, emotional awareness, and creating a safe environment for children. I enjoy being a sitter because I genuinely value creating a safe, supportive, and positive environment where children can feel comfortable being themselves. As a psychology student, I have a strong understanding of child development, behavior, communication, and the importance of patience and emotional support. I am dependable, attentive, organized, and comfortable balancing fun with structure. Whether I’m helping with homework, keeping children engaged with activities, preparing simple meals, or maintaining their usual routines, I believe in providing care that allows both children and their families to feel secure. I understand that trusting someone with your child is significant, and I take that responsibility seriously.

I always strive to create a calm, fun, and engaging atmosphere where kids feel safe and parents feel confident. I look forward to meeting your family and seeing how I can help!
