Hey! My name is Caroline Hensley, I am from Weaverville NC. I am currently 23 years old. I love kids, I have had tons of experience with watching years anywhere between 7mo.- 17. I previously worked with the YMCA Summer child care as a camp counselor. I also did an internship at NBHS working in the daycare. Snack time, nap time, and recess time was given each day. I am also CPR certified. I was originally going to ETSU for elementary education before I switched career paths. I have a clean background. I currently babysit occasionally for 5+ families. I have a ton of references. I truly hope you chose to consider my fun, enthusiastic, smiling soul.

Caroline was great! She jumped right in sitting all seven (7!) of the kids in our group, and they all had d a great time with her while we went out for an evening out. We were in town visiting for spring break (5 different families) so it was a one-time thing, but we’d absolutely hire Caroline again if we’re ever in Asheville again.

I am an experienced mother, nanny and retired nurse. My nursing back ground is varied, the most recent pediatrics, school nursing. I love providing care and actively engaging with babies and children. My primary interest is supporting families with in home care for newborns through preschool age. Fully vaccinated and boosted for covid. Former family circumstances changed and my 2-4 day nanny employment ended. I was with this wonderful little person from 8 weeks through 8 months. I continue to provide babysitting for a number of families with all ages on as as needed, back up basis. Pamela

Pamela is a real gem. She's knowledgeable, compassionate, and most importantly, really good with kids. Added plus in our house, she's a beautiful singer too. So hearing her sing to our daughter was as much fun for us as it was for her. Another item that we recommend her on is her communication skills. She is highly communicative with her families and genuinely cares about the kids.

Willa was very responsive and easy to speak to. She has heaps of experience and has repeat clients, which speaks volumes to me. Our son was very comfortable with Willa and he was well cared for.

My name is Bryn and I graduated in 2020 from Cal Poly with my Bachelors. I have over 10 years of babysitting/nannying experience, with children mainly from 8 months-4 years, however I have a good amount of experience with older kids too. I nannied full time from 2020-2021 for a little over a year for two toddlers (14 months and 2.5 years at the start). Most of my other experience has been with 1-2-year-old toddlers as I worked part time for three years at a local Church's childcare programs and I absolutely loved it. I also have experience with a variety of special needs children and multiples. I’m available evenings and/or weekends!

Hi! I'm a professional nanny and babysitter with over 10 years of experience, and have worked with kids aged infant all the way up to school-aged. I've also been an assistant preschool teacher, camp counselor, and tutor. I genuinely enjoy working with kids, learning about their interests, and helping support families. As a sitter and nanny, I love doing arts and crafts, reading, playing outside, and exploring nature. I'm very crafty and creative in my own time, and love setting up fun projects for kids if they're open to it too. I'm familiar with nap and bedtime routines, meal and snack prep, diaper changing and potty training, and for infants, bottle/formula feeding, swaddling, and tummy time. I'm a Red Cross-certified babysitter and First Aid-certified as well. I have experience with light housekeeping, pet care, and managing schedules as well. I'm a non-smoker, fully vaccinated, and am a licensed driver with my own car and a clean driving record. I can provide references as well. I look forward to working with you and meeting your little ones!

I am school social worker, MSW, LCSW and have been working in Buncombe County Schools for 11 years. I am taking a sabbatical this school year, and would love to spend some of my time with kiddos! I am the luckiest aunt of 5 incredible nephews who I miss daily because they live in Wisconsin! I love to sing and read, go on adventures, have fun, learn in any and every way possible, sharing all of the wonders of this planet with kids. I am spending the year working on my artwork, and exploring what's out there. I would love to get together to see if we could be a good fit!

Hi families! I’m a professional educator and caregiver with 6 years of paid childcare experience. My background includes 3 years as a Pre-K teacher, 3 years as a substitute teacher, and 10 consecutive years of babysitting. I have extensive experience with all age groups, from infants up to age 11+. My care philosophy focuses on sparks of imagination and active, healthy play. Instead of staying inside, I love taking children on enriching adventures! Whether we are exploring local parks and rivers, crafting, or visiting the museum, zoo, and aquarium, my goal is always to get their energy out while expanding their minds. I have flexible availability and am happy to provide references from local families. Thank you, Kailee E.

I have had multiple years of caring for babies, kids and pets of all ages, not to mention raising two of my own. I have my CPR certification and basic first aid knowledge. I love the wonder and joy of kids who are learning so much so quickly and enjoy being a part of that experience. I am a born nurturer with energy, education and excitement for what every new day can bring! I like to keep the TV off and the mind and body active. I also believe that down time is important for development. Time to just do nothing for a bit to daydream, relax, and connect. Routine and boundaries are what give kids a sense of safety and assurance, and I provide both in a loving, consistent way. Activity is essential for good health and I find that kids really respond to “dance parties”, sing alongs, easy gymnastics, etc. I'm all for them getting outside whenever possible to use some of that incredible energy to run and play games. Puddle stomping, mud pies and getting down on ground level to watch an ant trail are so much fun! I'm a healthy eater and think that when given a choice, kids really do prefer "real" food. I love to cook and bake from scratch with real, local ingredients. Of course, the children are always included in participating! It may get messy, but that's what dishwashers are for! Be ready for a gourmet (kid) treat when you get home from work! Reading out loud every day is a part of my philosophy too. I'm pretty animated and tend to give voices and expressions to the characters. It's simply an essential activity. Questions are encouraged and finding the answers rather then being given them is fun and empowering! I like to use more than the computer as a resource so I hope you have books, a world globe and maps available. All in all, I'd say I have a natural, relaxed approach to child rearing and care. We're all a part of this wonderful "village" on earth and connected to it and each other in some fashion.
