I am new to Midland. I moved here to NC, 2018, to Midland in 2021. I moved from Clarksville, TN. I watched numerous children in 10 years I was there. Most children that I sat for were Military children. I lived right down the road from Ft.Campbell, KY. The children became members of my family as well as I became members of theirs. We went on outings, to the park for little picnics, amusement park, Chuckie Cheese, shopping, and even out for ice cream or down to Sonic for happy hour. I never took them anywhere that I did not get approval from their parents. I have played cars, robots, dolls, coloring, any arts and crafts, we watched movies, read. All my kids were special, and still are. I miss them and still stay in touch with them all. I have plenty of references, so please contact me if I can help you in anyway.

Hi families!! My name is Na’Xya Dunn, I am 22 years old and I’ve been working with kids since I was 15. I started volunteering at my church in the kids classroom, but then I started working at my first childcare center and loved it so much. I want to become a pediatric nurse and have had such a love for kids ever since I can remember. I also have two younger brothers I often care for along with my younger cousins. I am very active, friendly, with a bubbly personality kids tend to love. I currently have CPR/AED certification for infants/children as well as adults, SIDS certification, as well as a couple of other certification due to my experience as a lead teacher in a daycare and after school center. Thank you so much for taking the time to read my bio and considering me I hope to meet some of you soon !!

Hi! I am a college student currently on Summer break who has a passion for working with children. I am on an accelerated pre-law track with a Spanish minor, and also play on the soccer team. I have nanny'd previously, and have also assisted my mom after school everyday as she is a preschool teacher. I love playing with kids, teaching them, or spending time outside. I understand the importance of not being on a tablet all the time and make it my goal to incorporate something creative!

Kayla B.
- 3 years paid experience
- < 1 mile
Hi! I’m Kayla. I’m a mom to a 3-year-old and I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and getting to know their personalities. Being a parent has taught me a lot about patience, emotional development, and how important it is for kids to feel safe, understood, and supported. I try to be very aware of how kids are feeling and what they’re communicating, even when they don’t have the words yet. I believe a lot of behavior is really just kids expressing needs, big emotions, or curiosity about the world. I focus on creating a calm, fun environment where kids feel comfortable being themselves. I’m happy to help with playtime, meals, bedtime routines, outdoor time, and keeping things structured but relaxed. My goal is always for kids to feel safe and for parents to feel confident that their child is being cared for thoughtfully. I’d love to help support your family!

Hi families! My name is Amaya and I’m a caring, reliable nanny with experience working with children in both daycare and in-home settings. I previously worked as an infant teacher, where I gained strong experience supporting early development, creating engaging activities, and providing attentive care to little ones. I’m currently working part-time with a wonderful family and may be open to adding another family through a nanny share. I’m passionate about creating a safe, nurturing environment where children can learn, explore, and feel supported. I’m also First Aid certified and prioritize safety while encouraging creativity, outdoor play, and developmental learning. I love building strong relationships with both children and parents and becoming a trusted part of the family’s support system. I look forward to connecting with families who value loving, attentive childcare!
