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.

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.

Arielle S., Child Care in Swannanoa, NC 28778 with 10 years of paid experience

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!

Sharon A., Child Care in Swannanoa, NC 28778 with 10 years of paid experience

Hello! my name is Sharon and i've enjoyed working with children as long as i can remember. I started caring for children while in middle school and continued to do so through high-school by volunteering in my church nursery and babysitting sporadically for children in my neighborhood. I have since graduated from Temple University with a bachelors degree in psychology. during my time in college I volunteered with child outreach programs in north Philadelphia. I've recently obtained experience working with children who have special needs- behavioral/learning etc. I also spend time caring for both of my nieces-ages 1 year and 8 years old and my nephew who is 10. I've always enjoyed my time spent with children and I look forward to learning about their personalities as this helps me better cater my caring method to fit them! I work to create an educational and fun environment for all ages and understand that in order to be successful with children you must learn to be flexible!

I’m dependable, patient, warm, and comfortable caring for children with a wide range of personalities, needs, and routines.

Alexandra R., Child Care in Swannanoa, NC 28778 with 7 years of paid experience

Hi My name is Lexie and I have been working with kids for what feels like forever. i’ve always liked it. I went to school for a little while for elementary education with a minor in psychology. I went through a little bit of a cancer scare recently and ended up, losing my ability to have my own children, so I really cherish the time that I get with all kids now even more and have always enjoyed working with them. I did get my CPR certification in high school and have followed it up after high school so it is up-to-date and I do know what to do. I’m great with animals also and I’m super comfortable with them in the house or out of the house or anything like that. I do have a little bit of background knowledge in training, certain dogs, and things like that. I mostly work with like known aggressive breeds, an and kind of helping them calm down, walk on leashes not be aggressive things like that so if you have like any little things that like you would like me to try to work on your dogs with, I can do that also. And no, I’m not gonna charge you for that. That would be insane, but I cannot express enough of how excited I am for this opportunity and after all my health problems, I’m really excited to get back into the workforce and things like that and can’t wait to start taking care of kids again. :)))))
