Hello, my name is Kendal Martin, and I am a 19-year-old rising junior in college studying business management. I have been working with children since I was 15 and have a natural ability to connect with them. My experience includes working as a summer camp counselor at both day and stay-away camps, as well as providing personal babysitting and tutoring services. I am also involved in ROTC, which has instilled in me the values of punctuality, communication, and responsibility. I pride myself on my ability to follow instructions and quickly establish a rapport with children. While my experience primarily revolves around childcare, I also have experience pet-sitting, including caring for a dog. I am confident that my skills and experience make me an excellent choice for your babysitting needs.

I love babysitting because taking care of children gives me a sense of purpose, and I genuinely enjoy being someone a child can feel safe, loved, and comfortable with. I have worked in childcare for three years and have also provided in-home babysitting services for the past two years, which I truly enjoyed. I especially love providing care in a child’s own home because it allows them to remain in a familiar and comfortable environment. Being surrounded by their own belongings, routines, and familiar surroundings can help children feel more secure and at ease. I also appreciate that in-home care allows me to follow each family’s established routines and provide care based on the child’s individual needs and comfort level. I am CPR certified and have completed a variety of professional childcare trainings through ProSolutions Training. These trainings have provided me with valuable knowledge and skills related to working in daycare and childcare settings, child safety, development, and providing quality care for children of different ages.

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!

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.

Hi there! I’m Josalyn, and I’ve been a nanny for two years, along with babysitting experience since I can remember. I currently care for a 6-year-old, who I pick up from school each day at 2:15 PM. I’m looking to provide care on Wednesday and Friday mornings or any day after 1 PM. During my care hours, I would bring your child with me to pick up my current nanny kid from school, and then we’d head back to my home. If it’s in the morning, it would also be at my house! I have no issue picking up and dropping off! At my house, your child will enjoy a fun and safe environment with a pool in the backyard and a playground nearby in Midtown Nexton, Summerville, SC. I can also provide references to give you peace of mind. I’m also available for date nights on weekdays after 5:30! I can’t wait to meet your family and create some joyful memories together!
