Christina B., Child Care in Karns, TN 37921 with 20 years of paid experience

I am a mother of 3. I am energetic, creative, compassionate and patient. I homeschooled my children as we traveled around the states and world with my husband and his job. My youngest is 15 and currently doing an online high school program. This has led me to have more free time. I recently worked in daycare. I worked in the infant room for months and then became the lead teacher for 2 year olds. I love teaching children and seeing them light us as they discover something new. The biggest key with children though is making them feel loved and secure. I currently sit for several families with various ages/needs and can provide references. I have had the opportunity to be a part of many children’s lives over the years. All with different personalities and backgrounds. Because of making them feel loved, secure, and special I have had the joy of a special bond with each and every one. I would love the opportunity to a part of your lives as well.

Christina is such a fun person who really understands and loves kids. Kids and babies love her personality and how involved and interactive she is. She is also pleasant to be around for adults hahaha. Great with communication! Reliable! I feel like I can trust her, and she is very understanding and go-with-the-flow, definitely not judgemental or self-serving. Honestly what more could you ask for!?! 10/10 recommend!

Hi, I’m Caroline! I am currently an after-school teacher at Primrose School of Farragut and have several years of experience working with children through both professional roles and babysitting. I hold a CPR certification, a valid driver’s license, and reliable transportation, allowing me to help with pickups, drop-offs, and outings. In addition to teaching, I have worked at Main Event and Defy Parks, where I coordinated children’s birthday parties and group activities, building strong skills in keeping kids engaged, safe, and entertained. I’m passionate about connecting with children, creating fun and meaningful experiences, and continuing to grow in my journey toward becoming a teacher.

Erika C., Child Care in Karns, TN 37921 with 4 years of paid experience

Hi! I am a part-time college student and currently work full-time at a high school in the special education department on the inclusion side of things. I support students in general education classrooms by adapting my approach to different learning styles and needs, helping them stay engaged, and supporting focus, behavior, and academic success. This has helped me build strong patience, flexibility, and a natural ability to connect with kids where they are. I’ve also been a lead teacher in a 1–2-year-old classroom, a nanny for two families, and have years of babysitting experience. I’m very comfortable working with children from infancy through high school and familiar with developmental milestones, routines, and transitions at every stage. I really enjoy creating a warm, fun, and safe environment where kids feel comfortable being themselves. I love hands-on activities like outdoor play, crafts, reading, and imaginative games over screen time. I’m caring, reliable, and attentive, and I focus on supporting not just children’s physical needs but also their emotional well-being, helping them feel understood, secure, and supported while giving parents peace of mind. I have full-time availability during the summer and weekend availability during the school year.

Elise irene C., Child Care in Karns, TN 37921 with 2 years of paid experience

Hi! Although I’m new to professional babysitting, I have a strong background in childcare and education. I have 2 years of experience as a summer camp counselor, where I worked closely with children ages 6–12, planning activities, supporting learning, and maintaining a fun but structured environment! In addition to my professional experience, I’ve helped care for my younger sister, who is nine years younger than me, which has given me firsthand experience with responsibility, patience, and adaptability in a family setting. I would describe my caregiving style as playful yet structured. I love creating engaging activities, helping with homework, and keeping kids active and motivated while also making sure routines and expectations are followed. I’m first aid certified and was also paid to tutor during high school, so I’m especially comfortable supporting children academically. I’m comfortable with pets and available for evenings, weekends, and flexible daytime hours. I pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and someone parents can trust to provide both fun and stability. I’d love the opportunity to support your family!

Madison E., Child Care in Karns, TN 37921 with 5 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Madison and I'm a recent graduate of the University of Tennessee. I married my long-term partner in May and am excited to spend the next several years working in childcare as I decide, prepare, and save for grad school. I have nannied for several families in the past, caring for children ranging from infancy to pre-teens. I also used to work as an overnight summer camp counselor. That being said, I am very comfortable caring for multiple children at a time. I am currently hoping to find a full-time nanny position with a kind, loving local family. I love children of all ages and the vibrant energy they bring. I'm an active individual and love to go on new adventures. I have recent CPR/AED/first-aid training, though it does need to be formally updated. I'm a native of Blount County, though I currently live in South Knoxville. I enjoy and am comfortable with driving, so a reasonable commute does not bother me. I am very familiar with the surrounding areas and love to provide new experiences for children in my care. I drive a Toyota RAV-4 SUV and carry a clean driving record. Safety is my utmost priority. I can provide recent academic, professional, and personal references. I also have a childcare resume with more details about my past experience. I am always open to furthering education, whether that be taking recommended classes or reading articles and books about your childrens' specific needs. I am comfortable and experienced working with children with varying disabilities as well. I'd love for you to consider me for any and all childcare tasks.
