Rebeca  L., Child Care in Waxhaw, NC 28173 with 4 years of paid experience

Hello dear families! I've been an Au-pair for three wonderful families with kids in between 2 and 11 years old, pets always being a big and important part of the families as well. After my last au pair experience I worked as a FT Nanny for an amazing family and their 14 months old little lady, following a season working in a high school as a Distance Learning Assistant in the Charlotte Mecklenburg Schools district in NC. I have a diverse background and have used au-pairing and 'nannying' as a great tool to explore different places, and immerse myself deeper in the US culture. I'm a native Spanish speaker, originally from Venezuela and a Materials Engineer by profession. My whole path ended up taking me into working in different areas like tourism, winemaking, childcare, among others. I'm currently based in NOVA and do volunteer at a doggies and kitties shelter in the area. I'm more than happy to answer any questions you may have, listen to your needs, so we can work together towards fulfilling then and hopefully become part of your amazing journey! Thank you, Rebeca

Orelle was very professional and on time. She was great with my high needs baby. Her voice calmed him right away. I plan to hire Orelle again. Thank you so much Orelle!

Karolay R., Child Care in Waxhaw, NC 28173 with 1 year of paid experience

I have always enjoyed working with children because I love supporting their growth, watching them learn, and helping them have fun safely. Being a babysitter allows me to combine my patience and creativity to provide a safe, joyful, and stimulating environment. I have experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers, both at home and in extracurricular activities. My skills include effective communication, conflict resolution, routine organization, planning educational and creative activities, assisting with homework, preparing healthy meals, and supervising outdoor play. Additionally, I have completed courses in childcare and safety, allowing me to provide responsible, reliable, and adaptable care for each family. I'm new to this app. I'm a Spanish speaker with basic English skills. Give me a chance to show my love for children. Thanks Note: Right now I'm taking care of an infant on Monday to Friday 10am - 4pm

Janayia D., Child Care in Waxhaw, NC 28173 with 4 years of paid experience

Hello! I’m a 21-year-old nanny with a strong passion for childcare, and I've been nurturing and guiding children since I began my journey at 16, At 19 I started working with autistic kids becoming a RBT .My experience spans various age groups, allowing me to develop a versatile approach tailored to each child's unique needs and personality. I believe that childhood is a time for exploration, creativity, and fun. I love to keep kids active and engaged, whether it's through outdoor adventures, imaginative play, or hands-on arts and crafts. I encourage learning through play and make it a priority to incorporate educational activities that spark curiosity and foster growth. Safety and communication are key elements in my nannying philosophy. I strive to create a supportive, loving environment where kids feel comfortable expressing themselves. I'm also dedicated to maintaining open lines of communication with parents, ensuring that we're all on the same page regarding routines, activities, and any special needs. Outside of nannying, I enjoy staying active myself, pursuing outdoor activities, and keeping up with new trends in child development. I bring enthusiasm and creativity to every interaction, and my goal is to help your little ones thrive while having a blast! I’m excited to meet you and your family and be a part of your children.

Janayia completely saved the day for us after another sitter didnt show up. She replied quickly after being messaged and was able to arrive in less than an hour allowing me to go to work. She brought very positive energy and a great attitude. Would recommend!

Melaniya B., Child Care in Waxhaw, NC 28173 with 6 years of paid experience

Hey! I'm Melaniya. I've been working with kids for over six years now, starting with volunteering and growing into regular babysitting and nannying. I've cared for infants, toddlers, and elementary-aged kids, and I really enjoy building a calm, playful, and positive space for them to grow and have fun. I'm CPR/First Aid certified and have a Red Cross babysitting certification. Safety always comes first, but so does making sure kids feel comfortable and heard. I'm naturally very calm, sweet, and easygoing, and I always try to meet each child where they're at. I'm also happy to help with light errands, homework, or tidying up-whatever makes your day a little smoother. Feel free to message me if you have any questions. I'd love to connect with your family! Nothing makes me happier than running into someone who I used to babysit and remembering all the fun times we had together! I’m available on weekdays and Saturdays. I’d love the opportunity to meet your family and would be happy to provide references if requested.
