Find experienced child care providers in Franklin, NC

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!

I am seeking a position as a pat time childcare provider. I have experience with children of all ages, diverse backgrounds, ethnicities and unique needs. I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology and Counseling with a minor in Bible and Theology and I am currently enrolled in an online graduate degree program from Walden University in Clinical Mental Health and School Counseling. For several years, not only have I been a substitute teacher for a number of public and private schools throughout Georgia and North Carolina, but I also spent 3 summer seasons working at a camp for students with disabilities and special needs, in Wyoming. I am currently employed full time in the school district as a School Counselor. From my adolescence years to present, I have been caring for children. I have had opportunities to care for children of all ages including infants, toddlers and up to young adults. Some of the children I have assisted with have been premature births, pairs of twins, and developmentally delayed children. Additionally, I’ve cared for children with food allergies, skin allergies, autism, Down Syndrome, ODD, OCD and ADHD. I have served as a Guardian Ad Litem for a child in the foster care system of the state of North Carolina. In that capacity, I acted on the child’s behalf in the court system to provide protection, guidance and support until the child reached the age of adulthood. I welcome the opportunity to speak with you regarding my experience and your family’s needs. I am delighted to share references with you so that you may communicate openly to discuss my qualifications and experience. I am confident you will find my experience, skill set, work ethic, knowledge, education and overall professionalism at the highest levels. Thank you for your time and consideration, I look forward to working with you and your family. Very Respectfully, Amber

Hi my name is Madison. I prefer to go by Maddy. I grew up with many siblings and love children. I graduated from Macon Early College in December 2020. I have had a couple years in child care and now that I am out of school I would love to expand my experience. I am a energetic, fun person. I love to play with children and entrain them. I am willing to do just about anything you may need me to do, from picking your child up from daycare/school to working late so you can have a fun night out.

Hello! My name is Arianna Taylor. I am 18 years old and attend Western Carolina University. I have 3 younger siblings who I took a big part in raising.

I have been a babysitter for 10 years. I have experience caring for children from ages 1-14 years old. I also experience caring for children with developmental and learning disabilities.

Hello! I am Fabi. I am currently in college working on a degree in biology. I have never babysat for anyone other than family but I am a very responsible and reliable person. I would love to bring my positive attitude to an environment with kids.

Hey there! I’m Vanessa — a 20-year-old student at Western Carolina University studying Elementary Education. I’ve worked with kiddos as young as 6 weeks old all the way up to middle schoolers, and I truly love every age and stage! I am currently a full time student, so my schedule/availability changes every 5 months, but I would love to fit in time! I currently do not have a full-time sitting family (although I am looking!!!), but I prioritize myself on my full flexibility on weekends, and most weekdays! This is my usual availability (Don’t be scared to ask about overnight or vacation opportunities): Monday: 12-11pm Tuesday: 5:30-11pm Wednesday: 12-11pm Thursday: 5:30-11pm Friday: 4-12pm Saturday: 7am-12pm Sunday 7am-12pm I’m certified through SC DSS, have completed multiple Early Childhood courses, and have a negative TB test. I have been background checked through the state of NC and SC and am willing to share that information! I have taken endless safety courses, as I am a part-time preschool teacher, so I have multiple course certifications in topics such as Safe Sleep, SIDS, Nursemaid’s Elbow, Outdoor Play, and more! I have my own car along with a clean driving record, that I love to tell parents about so they know I am always down to take small car rides to a nearby park or children’s museum. I love crafting, playing outside, and making sure your child is both safe and having a blast. I’m experienced with potty training and happy to follow (or help create!) a routine that works for your family. I do have experience with multiple kids as well as having pets in the home. I do have my own apartment with a cat, so if you are looking for someone to drop off to, I am more than willing to share my home with your lovely child(ren). Plus, I genuinely enjoy cleaning and organizing during downtime — it’s just part of who I am! If you’re looking for a fun, reliable, and hands-on sitter, I’d love to connect with you and your family!

Hello, My name's Makaylia. And here is a little about me. After I graduated high school I started working as a substitute teacher at Cherokee Central Schools and found my passion. I absolutely love working with children. I have always loved children and frequently babysat for family and friends when I was in school. At the moment I am going to college to become an early childhood educator. I believe the best part of working with children is watching them grow and explore the world around them. One of my favorite parts of being a substitute was working with the youngest students because so much was new and exciting. I firmly believe that every child is special and unique and should be treated with kindness and understanding as they work through the challenges of growing into adulthood. I am very excited about the opportunity to work with you and your children in the future!
