Hi there! My name is Kara and I’m 30 years old. Currently, I work as a full time professional nanny for a 1 year old girl! I have cared for children ranging from newborn (few days old) all the way up to middle school age with several years experience. The best qualities to describe me would be honest, outgoing, trustworthy, creative, and fun. I'm also CPR certified and first aid certified. In my spare time I like to spend time at the beach, spend time with friends, stay active, reading books, doing anything outdoors, or doing really anything to stay busy. Patience is key and children are my passion. I have also taken multiple classes regarding newborns, infants, and toddlers based upon safety, general care, and sleep conditioning!! Last but not least, I’m a certified advanced newborn care specialist, in a self paced program without a deadline studying to become a certified postpartum doula, as well as another self paced program without a deadline studying to become a certified pediatric sleep consultant! Hope to hear from you!

Kara is very responsive and thorough. She handles my kids ages 5-13 and always makes sure the house is clean when I get home. She handles dinner, bed time, dishes & laundry. I could not ask for a better sitter!

I have been a professional nanny in the past for 10 years and have been doing temporary nanny jobs for another 10 years, especially with infants and toddlers. I have babysitting experience since I was 12 years old with every kind of child you can imagine! I have two years of professional experience as a paraprofessional with autistic children. I have a degree in Art Therapy & most of a master’s degree in nutrition, can teach baby sign language & focus on Montessori style play, and I also have a diploma in Professional Massage Therapy. I have also taught ESL online to children in China! I’m vaccinated and boostered and CPR/First Aid certified. AKA, the baby whisperer, kids love me and I love kids! I’m currently available to create connections with families for the month of December 2024, one-time/short-term babysitting gigs or occasional overnights!! I’m super thrilled to meet you and your children!

I am a fun, energetic, creative/thinking outside of the box, harding working, and flexible person. I have been a special education teacher for 13 years and have recently taken a step back from the classroom setting working toward a semi-retirement lifestyle. I love working with children and will greatly miss this part of my teaching job. I am very knowledgeable in child development, teaching strategies for a diverse group of learners, working with behaviors that can be challenging at times, learning through play, and I have a lot of patience. I have experience caring for infants, toddlers, and young children. I love being outdoors and exploring new places on hikes and playing in my vegetable and flower gardens. I am very active and love learning new things. I have excellent references.

Hi everyone! My photo and checks are processing. I can give you my facebook and whatever else is needed :) My name is Karlie, I’m 23 years old with a beautiful 3 year old daughter. I have my BA in Human Service from Southern New Hampshire University and I am currently working on my Masters of Social Work, starting July 13th I will be all online at Capella University. I love working with children of all ages and have been for the last 5 years! I am looking to start a more routine sitter position as I am just occasional right now. I would love to work towards becoming a full time nanny/sitter to one or multiple children as it would not only benefit my daughter having time with other children to play with but give you the peace of mind knowing your child(ren) are in safe hands. I am l flexible, reliable and very commutative. I have a genuine love for working with children and enjoy helping them learn, grow, and have fun in a safe and caring environment. I'm patient, responsible, and dependable, and I understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can trust with their little ones. I enjoy arts and crafts, reading stories, outdoor activities, board games, and finding creative ways to keep kids engaged. I'm happy to help with homework, bedtime routines, light meal preparation, and light housekeeping related to the children if needed. I'm a dependable, caring, and patient nanny/sitter who truly enjoys spending time with children of all ages. My driving record is clean and I have a clean criminal record. I strive to create a safe, fun, and positive environment where kids can learn, play, and feel comfortable. Whether it's helping with homework, planning creative activities, preparing simple meals, or sticking to daily routines, I'm committed to providing reliable care that gives parents peace of mind. I value open communication, punctuality, and treating every family with kindness and respect. I look forward to building meaningful relationships with both children and parents! I'm currently looking to connect with families who need a reliable babysitter or nanny. I'd love the opportunity to support your family and provide loving, attentive care for your children. If you think we'd be a good fit, I'd be happy to chat and answer any questions. Thank you for considering me!

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.

Professionally, I have assumed roles as an Assistant teacher in a Headstart program and a substitute teacher in elementary through high school classrooms. Since 2016 I have enjoyed being a part-time caregiver for a former foster child who entered my life at the tender age of 6 days old. My experience includes teaching curriculum, preparing meals, snacks, indoor and outdoor play, playtime, nap time and potty training.... all while exercising safety precautions and measures. I am my happiest when caring for children and watching them blossom. I have currently relocated to Siler City NC due to the impact of the storm in Asheville NC. and is looking to pick up more part time hours. Im a happy-go-lucky person all the time. I enjoy watching children grow and have a happy childhood life because I did. It’s nothing more meaningful to me than allowing a parent that they can truat me go have fun with their children. I love seeing children happy. I like being happy on a daily. I love watching them learn and grow. I am CPR & First Aid certified and can provide documentation. I’ve worked with many families in Asheville and provided care for them. (13 families to be exact) I have many great references upon request. Thank You! Denise Ross
