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

I graduated in 2017 from The University of North Carolina at Greensboro with a bachelors of science in Human Development and Family Studies major with a concentration in child, youth, and family development and a minor in American Sign Language. I worked as a nanny throughout college and continued post-graduation, caring for children aged newborn to twelve years, with now nearly eight years of professional, full-time experience, I have experience with several sets of multiples (newborn twins, as well as toddler-aged twins), children with developmental delays, and internationally adopted children. I have experience with sick children as a volunteer with Brenner Children's Hospital, Make-A-Wish Foundation, and a pediatric hospice care facility, Kids Path. My philosophy as a childcare provider is teaching children balance in all things and to have the ability to go with the flow. I believe in learning through play but in also teaching life skills. I value teaching children that prioritizing themselves at times is absolutely necessary and appropriate, but also is having deep compassion and respect for others. I am CPR and First Aid Certified. I have a clean background check, driving record, am a Certified Child Passenger Safety Technician (CPST) and additional training in Transporting Children with Special Healthcare Needs.

Hi! I’m Bailea. I am currently a college student that studies Mathematics. I have been watching after children and pets for a good bit of my life, whether it was a sibling, family friend or even a neighbor. I enjoy watching children grow, learning who they are and watch as they tap into their personalities. I would say that I am great with kids! I have cared for children of all ages, from infants to even teenage kids. Over the summer of 2020, I worked at a local summer camp caring for children from the ages of 2-9. Since then I have worked with three families ages ranging from infant to 11 years. I also have had experience with children that have special needs since 2019, as we were given the opportunity to take them as elective courses in high school and participating in clubs in my college career. I have experience with pets as well so I am very comfortable with being around them, I do have a cat allergy but that does not keep me from loving them as well lol. As I stated, I am in college and am open to discussing my schedule with whomever is interested in hiring me but, that should not be an issue considering 80% of my classes are online!
