Jillian M.
- 1 year paid experience
- 14 miles
Hi! My name is Jillian, and I’m originally from Orange County, California. I’m 24 years old and have spent the past year working in retail, where I’ve developed strong communication and multitasking skills. I’m currently very flexible and available, making it easy to fit your family’s scheduling needs. I have prior babysitting experience, both for families in my community and for my own siblings, which helped me develop a natural sense of patience, responsibility, and creativity when working with kids. I truly enjoy spending time with children — whether it’s helping with homework, playing outside, or keeping them engaged with fun activities. In addition to childcare, I’ve also done dog walking and pet care, so I’m more than happy to help with family pets as well. I’m excited to bring my positive energy, reliability, and nurturing personality to a family that could use an extra helping hand.

Hi! My name is Alyssa. I’m 24 years old. I grew up with a younger sister, who I always enjoyed helping care for. I have always enjoyed being around children, as they bring back that little childhood spark. I hope to not only care for the child, but also help engage their minds. I have had multiple jobs in which I cared for children of all ages. I worked at an after school daycare, which the children were 5-12 years of age. I also worked at a preschool, which the children were 6 wks-4 years of age. I am also CPR certified, as well as Covid vaccinated. Unfortunately, I cannot drive as I have not learned how, but I am dedicated and have no problem walking to and from your house (if close enough). I look forward to talking with you and hopefully working with you!

Isabella P.
- 8 years paid experience
- 14 miles
My name is Isabella. I have been babysitting/nannying for 8 years now. I have been with kids of all ages! From the newborn stage to teens! My duties have included pick up and drop off. Taking to and from outside school activities. Watching the house when needed. I love to cook so meal prep or providing food is something that comes easy! I help with homework when necessary and I love being outside with kids to be active! Here is a little bit more about me! I’m the youngest of four sisters. Since very young my sisters and I have played sports, particularly soccer. My sisters and I played for elite soccer clubs in Southern California. I also played two years of college soccer where I received an associate arts degree in administration of justice. I’m very close with my sisters. I’m very involved in their lives and I have two nieces (newborn and 5 years old) and one nephew (7 years old). I love being active and I continue to stay fit working out everyday. My parents retired and recently moved to Tennessee. My sisters and I followed our parents so that we could stay together as a family. My parents raised us to be of good character. Our priority has always been our Christian faith and family. I don't drink and I don’t go out “partying” because it’s not my character and I love to stay fit and enjoy the outdoors. I’m responsible and trustworthy. I’m easy going and committed to the people I love, which would be my family and friends.

Mary S.
- 7 years paid experience
- 14 miles
Hi! My name is Mary, and I would love the opportunity to bring my extensive experience to your family's world. I am a recent grad from a small liberal arts college in Pennsylvania, moving back home to the Nashville area. Most recently, I have worked with children with ages from 6 weeks to Pre-K through full time employment at a family-owned daycare. In this role, I primarily worked as a Nursery Lead, caring for 8 infants alongside creating developmental curriculum, scheduling nap and feeding times, and updating parents through daily notes and photos. While wrapping up my college experience, I worked part time for my college's writing center, helping my peers perfect their Spanish conversational and writing skills. In high school, I volunteered with United Way to tutor elementary students who struggled with reading abilities, often due to dyslexia or ADHD, to improve standardized testing scores. I also worked part time tutoring high school and middle school students in math and grammar. Throughout middle and high school, I volunteered for my church's childcare and Sunday school programs. Caring for children has always brought me a deep sense of purpose and joy. I love watching kids discover the world, and I take pride in creating safe, nurturing, and engaging environments that support their growth and confidence. Whether it’s soothing an infant, building early literacy skills, or helping with homework, I’m motivated by the chance to make a positive, lasting impact on each child’s day. Being a nanny allows me to combine my love of education, creativity, and caregiving into meaningful, personalized work. I’m excited to bring that energy and dedication to a family who values connection, consistency, and care.
