Nancy is not only reliable, kind, and patient - she is also quick to support beyond caring for my children. She will tidy, put away dishes, wipe counters, take out trash, all without being asked. She has many years of experience and has helped me navigate everything from big tantrums to small misbehaviors. Both children love her and consider her part of our family. Her calm and steady energy has been the perfect fit for us and I would recommend her to anyone looking for an expert nanny.

I am an experienced mother, nanny and retired nurse. My nursing back ground is varied, the most recent pediatrics, school nursing. I love providing care and actively engaging with babies and children. My primary interest is supporting families with in home care for newborns through preschool age. Fully vaccinated and boosted for covid. Former family circumstances changed and my 2-4 day nanny employment ended. I was with this wonderful little person from 8 weeks through 8 months. I continue to provide babysitting for a number of families with all ages on as as needed, back up basis. Pamela

Pamela is a real gem. She's knowledgeable, compassionate, and most importantly, really good with kids. Added plus in our house, she's a beautiful singer too. So hearing her sing to our daughter was as much fun for us as it was for her. Another item that we recommend her on is her communication skills. She is highly communicative with her families and genuinely cares about the kids.

Hi! I'm a professional nanny and babysitter with over 10 years of experience, and have worked with kids aged infant all the way up to school-aged. I've also been an assistant preschool teacher, camp counselor, and tutor. I genuinely enjoy working with kids, learning about their interests, and helping support families. As a sitter and nanny, I love doing arts and crafts, reading, playing outside, and exploring nature. I'm very crafty and creative in my own time, and love setting up fun projects for kids if they're open to it too. I'm familiar with nap and bedtime routines, meal and snack prep, diaper changing and potty training, and for infants, bottle/formula feeding, swaddling, and tummy time. I'm a Red Cross-certified babysitter and First Aid-certified as well. I have experience with light housekeeping, pet care, and managing schedules as well. I'm a non-smoker, fully vaccinated, and am a licensed driver with my own car and a clean driving record. I can provide references as well. I look forward to working with you and meeting your little ones!

Wonderful, kind, and very professional. Ms. Charolette got along very well with my two kids. Was an absolute joy to have. She was very flexible with hours and worked with me when I had an abrupt schedule change. Always early. Very good on communication. I would recommend Ms. Charolette to friends and family. I will be hiring her again.

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.

I'm a retired science teacher/outdoor educator with 30 years experience working with children. Most recently, in my career work I was an Aquatic Educator and ran an afterschool fishing club for kids in grades 3-8 and had been teaching families with children ages 5 & up how to fish. I was a certified teacher and have a Master's Degree in Education. I taught in public schools and private schools and then started the education programs at the Pisgah Center for Wildlife Education for preK & up where I continued to work with outdoor education for kids until the flood in 2021. I have experience babysitting siblings, keeping them safe and engaged in activities, preparing snacks/meals, putting them down for nap/bed. I have done after school pick ups as well as driven kids to activities. I am good with pets. I have had background checks and been fingerprinted in previous employment. I am 1st Aid and CPR certified. I have also raised my own child. I have experience with all ages from newborns, toddlers, elementary and middle schoolers. I am currently sitting 4 mornings a week 8-1pm (MWFSat) for a family that has a 2 & 3 yr old. They are screen free and we spend most of our day outside. I have been with them over 1.5 years and unfortunately they are moving out of town. I would love to find a new family to help.
