Find experienced child care providers in Purlear, NC

Hi everyone! My name is Kendra and I am a Biology graduate student and lab instructor at Appalachian State University! I am completing my master’s degree in the spring (May), also teach general biology classes, and I am looking for a nanny job shortly before/after my graduation! I have 2-3 years of babysitting experience, 10 years pet sitting experience. My rate may be higher than some folks to compensate for my education! I (nearly) have a master’s degree in biology, as well as a BS, and a minor in psychology. I have research experience in both areas that give me extensive knowledge on health, first aid, safety procedures, education, phenomenal homework help for all ages, conflict resolution, teaching skills, and and many other skills that make me the perfect, safest person to trust with your little ones! The reason I am looking to be a nanny, is as mentioned above I do biology research and after completing my master’s degree, I plan on going to PhD school to pursue STEM education as I am incredibly passionate about getting young kids excited about science and math! If any of this sounds interesting to you, I’d love to speak with you and answer and questions you may have! I look forward to hearing from you!

Hi! I’m Olivia and I just graduated high school. I’ve been babysitting since I was 12 and I have always loved it. I am good at keeping kids calm and collected, and will play games with them, watch TV, etc. I can drive and have my own car for whenever necessary, my mom is a nurse practitioner and could be on call if ever needed, I can do CPR, and I have done a first aid course a while ago. I love to cook, do crafts, or whatever your child wants! I’m willing to drive kids, do errands, etc.

Hi my name is Treyton and I am a student at ASU. I have a passion for the outdoors and love doing activities with kids when I babysit such as hiking, mountain biking, snowboarding, etc or just staying home! I am more comfortable with boys a bit on the older side I would say around 6-12 but I would be open to babysitting girls as well! I have my CPR/AED and first aid certifications that are active and am happy to share! My schedule changes a lot so feel free to shoot me a text whenever!

Fueling children's curiosity and development is my passion! I am patient, friendly, and love engaging children with outdoor activities, board games, crafts, and educational pursuits. I am comfortable caring for up to four children and am happy to assist with meal preparation, light housekeeping, and transportation. I follow the parent's lead on household rules and communication preferences. I hold an Associate's degree and am finishing up my Bachelor's in Social Work. I also maintain current CPR and First Aid certifications. Knowing I can make a positive impact on your child's life brings me joy!

Hi Everyone! I am currently an undergraduate student at Appalachian State University. I plan on becoming a pediatric occupational therapist, so child development is super important to me. I have 5 years of child care experience, including babysitting, being a day care teacher, coaching children's gymnastics, and being an occupational therapy intern. I have adult and pediatric CPR and First Aid training. I am also SIDS certified. In addition, I am a volunteer at the hospital and have experience in emergency situations. I love and have worked with all kids, but I work especially well with infants and toddlers. Babysitting brings me such a sense of joy and fun! I look forward to possibly working with you! Feel free to reach out for any additional information!!

Hello my name is Kayla! I’ve been a nanny for about 4 years now I absolutely love it! Recently my family I’ve been helping moved away and I am looking for a new family to work for! I’m very out going and fun I have animals so I’m okay with your furry friends too! I always have AWD for the snowy weather! I can do house choirs I can cook and I also have a clean driving record! I grew up right here in the high country! I look forward to getting to know you!

I am currently a sophomore in college at Appalachian State University and I have been babysitting/nanny since I was a sophomore in high school! I have worked for families with kids ranging all the way from 2-12 and find that I do well with just about every age. I am very passionate about child care because I was raised by the most amazing nanny who took care of everything while my mom and dad constantly had to work. I think it is very important for a child’s upbringing to be surrounded by responsible, caring, and enthusiastic people to allow them to grow and prosper. I believe that the shaping of a child’s character truly starts with learning from those around them. I strive to keep kids entertained and happy when babysitting them because I find that it makes having a babysitter a much better experience for them since the sitter is not someone they are entirely familiar with. I am CPR certified, can cook, can clean, can drive, help with pets, and possibly help with homework if that is necessary!

I’m passionate about creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for kids, whether it's engaging them in creative activities, helping with homework, or simply providing companionship. I pride myself on being reliable, patient, and attentive to each child’s individual needs. With a background CPR, parents can feel confident that their little ones are in great hands. I offer flexible hours and am happy to help with light housekeeping, or meal prep. Let me know how I can help your family!
