Hey! My name is Caroline Hensley, I am from Weaverville NC. I am currently 23 years old. I love kids, I have had tons of experience with watching years anywhere between 7mo.- 17. I previously worked with the YMCA Summer child care as a camp counselor. I also did an internship at NBHS working in the daycare. Snack time, nap time, and recess time was given each day. I am also CPR certified. I was originally going to ETSU for elementary education before I switched career paths. I have a clean background. I currently babysit occasionally for 5+ families. I have a ton of references. I truly hope you chose to consider my fun, enthusiastic, smiling soul.

My name is Bryn and I graduated in 2020 from Cal Poly with my Bachelors. I have over 10 years of babysitting/nannying experience, with children mainly from 8 months-4 years, however I have a good amount of experience with older kids too. I nannied full time from 2020-2021 for a little over a year for two toddlers (14 months and 2.5 years at the start). Most of my other experience has been with 1-2-year-old toddlers as I worked part time for three years at a local Church's childcare programs and I absolutely loved it. I also have experience with a variety of special needs children and multiples. I’m available evenings and/or weekends!

Hello friends! I am a full time mama to one beautiful 4 year girl. We spend our days 100% screen free, playing outside, making art and reading and writing! I am a certified Nature Based Educator via ANBE, a certified herbalist via The California School of Herbal Studies and Hold a B.A in Anthropology. I maintain and currently hold active certifications in infant, child and adult CPR and First Aid via WILDMED (institute for wilderness and emergency medicine). Long before I became a mother, I was always working with other children and spent several years besides occupational and physical therapists working in the field of infant therapy. I have experience with infant seizures, low muscle tone, visual disturbances, delayed speech and motor skills and medication admistration. Working with and watching infants holds a dear place in my heart and it seems my own daughter has acquired that as she just loves babies and always wants to hold them and care for them too. Right now I able to work with infants through age 6. If your child is over 2 years old, we will most likley spend as much time outdoors as we can, as long as it is'nt too cold. I own multiple Oakie suits, always bring extra layers and we like to warm up with warm tea or hot chocolate! I'm really big on expression through art, so we will probably paint or craft each time we are together too! Right now I am unable to have you drop your child off at our property, so we will come to you! We have a rather flexible schedule and my daughter will be with me too until after the new year. And even then she is only in school 2-3 days a week so she might still join us. I will take care of your child as if they were my own. Safety is my top priority followed by love, kindness, NVC, and nervous system regulation via nature. I am grounded, reliable, honest, trustworthy and I LOVE being a mama. Please reach out with any questions anytime and we hope to play with you soon! **(my background check and photo are actively processing. thank you!)

Hi! I'm currently pursuing my Master's in Social Work and have a background working with children, adolescents, and individuals with a variety of mental health and behavioral needs. I have three years of childcare experience, and I'm passionate about creating a safe, supportive, and fun environment where children can grow and be themselves! My experience in social work has taught me the importance of patience, empathy, communication, and understanding each person's individual needs. I believe every child is unique, and I love finding creative ways to encourage their curiosity, independence, and development. I enjoy arts and crafts, outdoor activities, educational games, and finding new ways to make learning fun! I'm CPR and First Aid trained and happy to help with meal preparation and light housekeeping. I value open communication with parents and understand the importance of respecting each family's routines and preferences. I'd love to get to know your family!

I am 19 years old and am currently employed as a substitute teacher for buncombe county. I have about a year and a half of paid childcare experience and around six years of volunteered experience. I do not have my license but transportation to and from work is no issue.

Hi! I’m Beck. I’m an elementary assistant teacher with several years of experience working with children in educational, residential, behavioral, recreational, and mentorship settings. I genuinely enjoy working with kids and creating an environment where they can have fun, be themselves, and still have the structure and boundaries they need to stay safe. I’ve worked with children across a variety of ages and needs, including as a residential counselor, behavioral support professional, martial arts/self-defense instructor, and youth mentor. I’m comfortable with everything from homework help and bedtime routines to outdoor adventures, games, sports, crafts, and finding creative ways to keep kids entertained without relying on a screen all day. Safety is a major part of my background. I’m certified in CPR/First Aid and Wilderness First Aid and have additional training in Search & Rescue, crisis intervention and de-escalation, emergency management, mass-casualty response, and active-shooter/emergency response. I’m comfortable staying calm, assessing a situation, and taking appropriate action when something unexpected happens. Outside of childcare, I operate a wildlife rescue and have a strong background in conservation and outdoor education. I love getting kids interested in nature, animals, science, and the outdoors. I also have experience with music and several sports, particularly golf, and I’m always happy to incorporate a child’s interests into what we do. I believe kids deserve caregivers who actually engage with them. My goal isn’t simply to keep an eye on your child until you get home—it’s to make sure they’re safe, respected, comfortable, and hopefully excited for me to come back next time.

I like crafts, nature walks, playgrounds and other adventures. I’m also down for movie nights (with kiddos, nothing scary!) or other fun things.

I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident knowing their child is in safe and caring hands. I’m respectful of each family’s routines and parenting preferences, and I always do my best to create a positive, safe, and comfortable environment for children.
