Kayla L., Child Care in Dorchester, SC 29437 with 9 years of paid experience

I am a CSU student. I graduated from Summerville HS in 2015, and during my free time I spent countless hours volunteering at Old Fort Baptist church in the children's outreach program. I worked at Christway Worship Center's children summer camp. I also babysit my 'kid' brother after school and on weekends and have been doing it for over 7 years. I am no stranger to sick babies/children. I'm not clueless on how to change a diaper or even teaching a child how to use the toilet, and properly wash their hands. I've done it all. I do cook, and will cook if wanted/needed. I also help with homework and any school activities that children have. I would just like to add that I am great with all children that I take care of, and the children that I have taken care of find me to be an enjoyment. Every child is beyond important, and should be treated as such, and that is what I live by.

I absolutely love taking care of children. I am very personable and love working with children. I enjoy providing an enriching experience with the children I care for. I go above and beyond to make sure every child's needs are met. I've had experience working with infants, toddlers, and children. I am punctual, reliable, and very good with children. I'm currently working towards my repertoire of certifications to better my experience as a babysitter/nanny. I am first aide and CPR certified. I would love to help take of your little ones. Please message me if you are interested!

I’ve loved kids for as long as I can remember! I regularly babysit my 1-year-old nephew and have also been paid to help out at my aunt’s daycare, caring for children from infants to age 6. I am BLS and First Aid certified. I’m very caring, patient, fun, and engaging, and I love creating a safe, happy environment where kids feel comfortable, cared for, and excited to play and learn!

Maria A., Child Care in Dorchester, SC 29437 with 4 years of paid experience

I love working with kids because I get to see how a little human has so much personality, intelligence and capability of doing great things. I was an au pair for two years and took care of a kid with autism, from the age of 4 until he was 6 years old, who is now my long distance brother. We created a very special bond and miss him every single day. Before that, I worked with a new born, and older kids I’m very patient, loving and comprehensive with kids, and pets. I’m moving back to Seattle on May 14th after living 2 years in South Carolina, and I’m looking for a new family to trust me with their little ones🥰

Lydia W., Child Care in Dorchester, SC 29437 with 5 years of paid experience

I was a foster parent for 7 years. I am CPR and first aid certified. Hands on play time and attention is how I work with kiddos. Age appropriate arts and crafts, reading books, and singing/dancing are my favorite activities with kiddos. Infants, toddlers and young children are my specialty. I believe in healthy meals, hands on playtime, being present with the kiddos and setting reasonable boundaries so they can build confidence. Routine is important for all children to succeed. I love to make play a learning experience. Learning outside through exploring, inside helping with food prep (kids will eat more if they are involved with helping), arts and crafts, reading books or games. I love watching their minds learn, grow and build confidence. I have worked with medical fragile infants who have excelled within my care. I also work from home during the week so I have flexibility to accommodate at my house if needed last minute. I am still set up for fostering children, I just do not have my home open for them. My house has been fire inspected and passed.
