Mary alice  M., Child Care in Okatie, SC 29909 with 20 years of paid experience

Hello!! I have about 20 years of childcare experience. This includes babysitting, nannying, providing care in church nurseries, working as a preschool teacher, chaperoning, volunteering, and working with children on mission trips. I am CPR/First Aid trained and have a lot of course training hours, including Darkness to Light. I am a parent myself so I even use my experience at home on a daily basis. I also help with our youth trips, programs, and events at our church frequently. Any time and anywhere I get to work with children makes my heart happy. Thank you for your time, and I hope to hear from you!! **I also have experience with pet sitting and respite care.**

Alana B., Child Care in Okatie, SC 29909 with 4 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Alana Briggs, and I truly love being a sitter because I enjoy creating a safe, fun, and positive environment where kids can be themselves, learn, and grow. Being able to support families while building meaningful connections with children is something that genuinely fulfills me. I have several years of hands-on experience caring for children of different ages, including working as a CNA and in healthcare settings, which has strengthened my patience, attentiveness, and ability to respond calmly in any situation. I’m comfortable with everything from daily routines and homework help to meal prep, bedtime, and keeping kids engaged with creative and active activities. I’m known for being responsible, energetic, and nurturing. My skills include strong communication, problem-solving, and creating structured yet fun environments for kids. I also have training in caregiving, which helps me prioritize safety and well-being at all times. My goal as a sitter is to not only care for your child but to make sure they feel happy, supported, and excited for the time we spend together. I treat every child like they’re my own and every home with respect and professionalism.

Kathleen was flexible and showed up a little early when our shuttle plans changed. My kids enjoyed hanging out with her and we would use her again if we need a sitter when visiting HHI.
