Caroline was great! She jumped right in sitting all seven (7!) of the kids in our group, and they all had d a great time with her while we went out for an evening out. We were in town visiting for spring break (5 different families) so it was a one-time thing, but we’d absolutely hire Caroline again if we’re ever in Asheville again.

Anastasiia K., Child Care in Leicester, NC 28748 with 3 years of paid experience

About Me Hi! My name is Anastasiia, and I have over 3 years of childcare experience working with children from 9 months to 6 years old. Caring for children is something I genuinely enjoy, and I always strive to create a safe, loving, and positive environment where kids can feel happy, comfortable, and supported. I understand that every child is unique, so I take the time to learn their personality, interests, and routine. Whether we’re reading books, doing arts and crafts, playing outside, helping with learning activities, or simply making everyday moments fun, I always focus on keeping children engaged while helping them grow with confidence. Parents describe me as patient, responsible, trustworthy, calm, and dependable. I believe communication with parents is just as important as caring for their children, so I always provide updates and make sure they feel confident that their little ones are in good hands. I am a native Russian speaker, and I can also communicate in English,Spanish and Ukrainian which allows me to connect with families from different backgrounds. My goal is simple: to become someone your child feels safe with and someone you can completely trust. I treat every child with kindness, patience, and respect—the same way I would want someone to care for my own child❤️

Anastasia took care of our two toddlers for nearly a week when we visited Asheville for a conference at a local resort. She was very sweet, gentle natured and caring and took excellent care of them. She followed all directions that we asked and the kids had a lot of fun in her care. Her sister also visited with the kids and helped her with some of their baths and bedtime. We were very lucky to find her!

Jennifer K., Child Care in Leicester, NC 28748 with 13 years of paid experience

I am a fun, energetic, creative/thinking outside of the box, harding working, and flexible person. I have been a special education teacher for 13 years and have recently taken a step back from the classroom setting working toward a semi-retirement lifestyle. I love working with children and will greatly miss this part of my teaching job. I am very knowledgeable in child development, teaching strategies for a diverse group of learners, working with behaviors that can be challenging at times, learning through play, and I have a lot of patience. I have experience caring for infants, toddlers, and young children. I love being outdoors and exploring new places on hikes and playing in my vegetable and flower gardens. I am very active and love learning new things. I have excellent references.

Kathleen M., Child Care in Leicester, NC 28748 with 10 years of paid experience

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.
