Maura M., Child Care in Durham, NC 27713 with 20 years of paid experience

I’m an artist with 20+ years of childcare experience, including a decade as a nanny in New York City (where I graduated from Columbia University). Since moving to the South, I enjoy meeting new families and learning how I can best support kids’ confidence, curiosity, and creativity as a sitter. I love spending time with kids outside (scootering, critter observing, sprinkler hopping!), making things (painting, sewing, baking!), reading books, and practicing new skills (cutting with scissors, phonics!) I have experience with kids on the spectrum, epi-pens, infants, and twins. I strive for clear communication and being a nurturing, peaceful presence in the home. Open to overnights and travel sitting as needed.

Hi! My name is Chinwendu! I am a recent graduate of The UNC at Chapel Hill. I have a current NC-EMT license, so I am both CPR and First Aid certified. I have multiple years of experience babysitting children of all ages. In my teens, I worked in a small home daycare service which cared for around 7+ children at a time (ages 3-12).

Hadley R., Child Care in Durham, NC 27713 with 8 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Hadley and I’m looking for summer (possibly into fall) nanny positions. I’m 28 and starting my master’s program at the end of May, so I’m looking for daytime roles to help you out while your kids are out of school. I’ve been babysitting since I was a young teen, but have worked professionally in childcare and education since graduating college in 2020. I’ve worked several positions, including a first grade teaching assistant, middle school substitute, and a daycare teacher. I have extensive experience with children of all ages, from infancy through middle school. Please feel free to ask me any in-depth questions about my experience! I love babysitting because it gives me a chance to focus on getting to know one or a few children, giving me plenty of time to get close to them and their families. I love the freedom to do a variety of activities, letting us have maximum play time together. I am also first aid and CPR certified, and feel confident in my ability to keep your children safe, which is ultimately my most important duty as a caregiver. Please let me know if any additional info you’d like to have. I’m happy to provide documents and references as needed!
