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.

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.

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!

Anastasiia K., Child Care in Swannanoa, NC 28778 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!

Korie K., Child Care in Swannanoa, NC 28778 with 25 years of paid experience

Hi, I’m Korie! I started babysitting as soon as I was allowed to take the Red Cross babysitter’s course at age 11 (30 years ago!) Since then I’ve worked as a professional nanny for several families, spent ten years running my own martial arts, wellness, and leadership program for kids, led a small homeschool preschool pod, and developed a parent coaching program called Thrive Atlas. These days I run parenting workshops and raise my two amazing girls, ages 8 and 14. Children have been the center of my life’s work for a long time, and I find it deeply rewarding. My approach to caregiving is attachment-focused, which means I pay close attention to building trust and a sense of safety with each child. When kids feel secure and genuinely seen, they’re free to explore, learn and develop a layered understanding of the world around them. I draw on Montessori and Waldorf styles, following the child’s natural curiosity, offering hands-on and imaginative play, and creating calm, unhurried rhythms to the day. I also love weaving in basic Spanish and French vocabulary and plenty of time in nature. One of my priorities is listening to you as a family before I begin spending time with your little one. Every household has its own values, routines, and priorities, and honoring those is important to me. If you’d like to talk about what your family needs, I’d love to connect.
