NOW SEEKING FULL TIME EMPLOYMENT STARTING JANUARY 2026 Hi! I’m Ashley, I’m 24 and I’m an aspiring pediatrician. The road to getting my MD has been long but working in childcare has been a powerful constant in my life. Starting my professional childcare journey in the summer of 2020, I have gained a multitude of experience with children of all ages. My specialty is newborn and infant care. I work closely with first time parents to not only ease their mind as they navigate the early life of their new addition, but welcome a caregiver into their home for the first time as well. I have extensive knowledge of infant milestones and experience with sleep training, bottle feeding, the transition to solid foods, and the development of motor skills. I have a structured, developmental, and empathetic approach to childcare that I work to improve every day. I am well versed with essential tasks such as maintaining routines, meal preparation, and light housekeeping. I have experience with tutoring and online learning assistance. I love to teach as much as I love to learn, but I also enjoy fun activities such as in/outdoor games and crafts. I constantly encourage creativity and imagination! I’m always up for a trip out and about. I have experience transporting children in my own reliable vehicle as well as family cars, so I am quite comfortable with car seat installation. I am CPR/First Aid certified, with extensive knowledge of pediatric medical emergencies. Working in childcare has been such a privilege in my life and I look forward to building more bonds! All the best, Ashley Bailey

Hi, my name is Valerie and I am interested in part-time childcare work. I am a mom of 5 Vikings ( as my husband and I call them). My two oldest have moved out, and I have 2 in High School and 1 in Community College. I have been a stay-at-home mom for (most of) 23 yrs. When I realized that my kids would rather be with their friends I decided it was time to get out of the house. My neighbor agreed and offered me up as a nanny for friends of hers. I obtained my CPR certification and accepted a temporary Nanny position, part-time, for an infant. I so enjoyed my time with a little again! My position ended when circumstances changed and the family moved from the area. Since that first job, I’ve had a family in town for two days for work and hired me to care for their infant for a few days. Then two very lovely families who each only needed me part of the week became my primary jobs. One family had a toddler girl and the other a toddler boy. Both of those children will begin a school/daycare program this August, so I currently have days to fill. Pre-Husband and Vikings, I earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Earth Science at Central Michigan University. Being a bit of a wanderer, I found myself in Chicago working at an Ad Agency! My family and I moved to Greensboro about 8yrs ago, and we enjoy having both mountains and Ocean available for our adventures. I enjoy getting outdoors daily, and perhaps it’s the Earth Science background, but I love taking the little ones outside and introducing them to the trees, flowers, birds, whatever we come across. Kids are such natural sponges, they soak it all in. Having the opportunity to smell or touch or hold something greatly improves their understanding, and I like to introduce words such as rough or smooth to help them be able to learn the difference and to describe what they feel.

Hiii! My name is Abrianna! From the time I was old enough to babysit I fell in love with engaging young children in how to learn new tasks. I soon became a student teacher at my church, where I loved teaching every child that came to the door a new lesson every week. I went to college to become a teacher and this is currently my 4th year teaching. I have my teaching license in elementary education and special education. I consider myself to be open minded, hardworking, dedicated, and to have a positive spirit. Others know me to be scheduled oriented because I prefer to be early to things. For if you are early you are on time and when you are on time you are late. I value my time and time of others. I am looking for a more reliable part time job and a summer job. I enjoy arts & crafts, eating good food/cooking for others, laughing, and listening to music. I love dogs, but I am afraid of cats lol.

I am very adventurous and open minded to all things in life. I love nature, hanging out, and meeting new people. I've also always loved kids and pets, babysitting was one of my first jobs and i loved it. It taught me patience at a young age and im forever grateful for it. For anymore questions or concerns, please message me!
