Find experienced child care providers in Ridgeville, SC

Hi, my name is Courtney Thomas, I am a 26 year-old experienced caregiver who loves working with infants and toddlers! I started working in Childcare at the age of 14. I volunteered at a daycare called The Little School at Duke in NC, with children ages 8 months to a year old. I later on became babysitter certified with first aid and began babysitting for various NC families for pay. After working for my first family, I became CPR AED certified for infants through adults, and later on got my BLS. My other experiences come from working in summer camps, my church nursery, previous nanny jobs, and as a preschool teacher assistant. I've also worked as a sensory motor coach for Brain Balance Achievement Centers with children ages 4-16 years old, along with newborn- elderly as a Neurodiagnostic Technologist for 3.5 years. I have always enjoyed working with young children and I have a special love for infants and toddlers. I am currently available for occasional/date night sitting, along with backup if your primary caregiver is sick or unavailable. I have references and reviews pending, and my availability has some flexibility. Feel free to contact me! -Thank you!

I’ve been babysitting for many years now, and I have a lot of experience with all ages. I get along great with kids and their parents, and my schedule is extremely flexible! I manage my time very well, and I respect the parents time as well so I would never be late. I am also a very clean person and was raised to clean up after myself, so I will make sure your house is in good condition as well!

Hello! My name is Hope and I am 22 years old. I am a reliable sitter who loves caring for children and animals. I have flexible availability and a reliable source of transportation.

Hello, I’m Destiny! I’m 26 years old, and caring for children has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember. I started working with young children around age 12, and by 13 I had already taken a CPR course for infants through adults. I wanted to make sure that in a worst-case scenario, I’d have the skills to help save a life. What truly sets me apart as a sitter is my natural, fun, and uplifting personality that kids gravitate toward. Children respect me and listen to me because of the way I communicate with them and never at them. I’m patient, understanding, and genuinely enjoy making their time with me both safe and enjoyable.

Hi there! My name is Brooke. I am a 24-year-old female and a first-year law student. I have been babysitting for teachers, friends, family, and working professionals for over 12 years. I enjoy all ages and finding creative ways to encourage growth and development with littles whether that is through structured homework, arts and crafts, or even sports. I especially enjoy working with infants as they have so much love and snuggles to give, and require such delicate care that is hard to find in babysitters. I treat each family as if they are my own because they are! When asked, my friends and family described me as "warm, caring, patient and mature". My positive attitude, critical thinking skills, as well as CPR and certified lifeguard qualifications are sure to be an asset to your home! I have my own transportation (SUV) with a clean driving record and 4 years of experience driving with infants/children/teens. (Seatbelts are a non-negotiable, even for the teens). I am looking for part-time work during the week and full-time work during the weekends. Light housework and animal-sitting is negotiable as well! Please let me know if my assets and services would be a good fit for your home and family!

Dear Families, I am a former preschool teacher and medical professional who is looking for a part/-full time job. I offer a safe, clean, healthy, fun and loving environment.

We have a wonderful neighborhood and a fenced in backyard. We have a chocolate lab who absolutely loves to be part of this family.

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.

I have 11 kiddos all grown. Nana of 15 little ones. I was a nursery teacher for our church. A young woman’s leader. Primary teacher. Ran my own in home daycare. Be came a CNA for 8 years.

My name is Phoebe, I'm 32 years old and I'm from Beaufort, SC. I've lived in the Charleston area since 2009 and I currently live in Summerville with my partner and our two dogs. I am looking for supplemental income as I am in real estate and the market isn't exactly ideal. My parents and sister are all teachers, my mother specifically worked with babies and I spent a good deal of my childhood babysitting for family and friends. I graduated from College of Charleston with a BS in Sociology and minor in Psych. I also went to schooling for half of my masters in Social Work and have worked with Intensive Foster Care as well as Teen & Adult mental health groups at MUSC. I am great with kids and have a lot of energy for outdoor activities, games, learning & exploring. I also love animals. I am not afraid to get dirty. I consider myself a cook and a natural organizer. If you need help with household chores I don't mind. If you're a nice family looking for a trustworthy, smart and fun babysitter+ ... I'm your girl!
