I am a retired school teacher and counselor. I have a BS in Education from Lander University. Have 2 Master’s degrees, one in clinical counseling from The Citadel and one in Instructional Technology from Grand Canyon University. I retired from the state in 2014, with 25 years teaching and counseling experience in Charleston, Berkeley, and Lexington County. I am looking for a family full time, part time, or occasionally when needed. I can work any hours to include over night if needed. I have nannied off and on when teaching. You’re probably too young to remember but I nannied Fran Tarkinton’s two children for many summers at Sea Island Ga. I also nannied summers with Hicks and Jane Lanier from Atlanta, Ga. I have experience with infants up to high school and special needs children. I love being around children and watch how quickly they learn. I do believe that one has to be secure emotionally before anything else. When I nanny, I make sure to follow whatever rules and routines that are in place. I am able to run errands, drop off and pick up children, laundry, light house keeping, food prep, or any need the family may have. I have no issues with times changing at the last minute at all. I receive great fulfillment when working with any age child. I have lived in Lexington/West Columbia since 2012. I have a son Nicholas that just retired from MLB 2 years ago and a daughter Suzanne that is a social worker in Augusta. They both attended LHS. Working with any family that needs helps fulfills me. I also have extensive experience in running baseball tournament so I have always been with children both in school and out of school. I will be glad to send you my resume and references. I look forward to hearing from a family who needs helps.

Kim is a professional and a retired elementary school educator——and that is a plus in my book. She has great background experience and will have now the time to be fully engaged with her sitting duties, if hired. She’s responsible and personable. I highly recommend her!

Hello, my name is Kendra. I have been working with children for 10+ years. My key for your child and/or children is to be consistent with development, and nurturing. Activities that I enjoy are music, reading, arts&crafts, and nature walks. It is essential that I guide a child to identify within themselves as well as the world. Every child has a right to be cared for by someone whom they feel secure with. I strive to make a difference in the development of your child's life. Pay rates are negotiable. Thank You.

Jen is wonderful, our 1.5 year old daughter has only ever been watched by us or our parents. She was able to build rapport almost immediately and our daughter felt safe and happy being left with her within one week of starting. We feel very fortunate to have found her.

My son went to Crayons & Lollipops day care as a child. I could not have asked for a more wonderful experience him! My family was met with open arms and love from the instant we spoke with Brandi. It has been 18 years since my son was preschool age, but we have maintained the same trust and "family" relationship as the first day we met. My son learned so much when entrusted in her care. Anyone looking for childcare would benefit from Brandi's experience, kindness, and passion for helping to raise and educate tomorrow's leaders!

Hello there! My name is Rosemary, and I have 7+ years of childcare experience. I absolutely adore working with children, and have had the opportunity to wear many childcare hats, as a nanny, tutor, children's dance fitness and yoga instructor, kid's party face painter, and summer camp counselor! Children are gifted with brilliant imaginations and LOTS of energy, so I think it's important to keep them engaged through social play, singing, dancing, storytelling, arts and crafts, and outdoors exploration. The emotional and social development of the children with whom I am working is at the top of my priority list, and I appreciate collaborating with parents who feel similarly. Additionally, while I am no expert, I have had quite a bit of experience working with autistic and otherwise neurodivergent individuals. I am CPR and first aid certified as well. I look forward to hopefully working with you and your little ones!

I am a 25 year old who loves working with children and helping families. My location may say Virginia Beach, but I am moving to S.C by March 31 due to my husbands job transfer. My full time job included assisting foster youth and their families. Prior to that position, I was a caregiver for three children at a time with disabilities in which I provided 12 hour care for them to include light housekeeping work. I am very good with cats and dogs as I currently have 3 cats and 1 dog (I know, it’s a bit much but I love them dearly). I am looking for a part time or full time position where I can assist a family and build great connections with the kiddos!
