Stephanie J., Child Care in Portland, TN 37148 with 20 years of paid experience

I enjoy working with, caring for and being around children! I have 15 years of professional child care experience: Five years in a daycare setting working with infants to 5-year-olds. Four years as a full time nanny/housekeeper/household manager for two small children. Part time nanny for 3.5 years caring for a young girl. I've also done overnight babysitting for a family throughout the last 15 yrs. I currently nanny part time for 3-year-old twins and assist a first grader through remote learning part time as well. I find it rewarding to make a positive contribution in a family setting and be a part of the upbringing of a child. I enjoy aiding in child growth and development and helping children reach their milestones. I'm reliable, responsible, caring, warm, fun and patient. I'm seeking a reliable and consistent, full time position. Please reach out, ask questions, I'm available for phone interviews and would love to visit to meet in person. Let's talk!

Taylor B., Child Care in Portland, TN 37148 with 4 years of paid experience

Caring for children isn’t just something I do but it’s something I genuinely love. As an education major, I’ve spent years studying child development, but more importantly, I’ve spent real time with kids: substitute teaching during school, working at The Goddard School, and always being surrounded by little ones in both personal and professional spaces. I feel at home in their world. I also understand what parents need. Especially coming from parents who love a good date night. I’ve worked with many families who just need that trusted, dependable person to step in so they can enjoy a night out without a single worry. That’s a role I take seriously. Babysitting gives me a chance to show up for both kids and their parents and that’s exactly why I’m so excited about this opportunity.

For two years I was a nanny, and I believe in a very gentle approach that quietly stimulares the baby. I also babysat in church nurseries but I far prefer being able to give one on one time.

Mallory  W., Child Care in Portland, TN 37148 with 3 years of paid experience

I’m a 19-year-old sophomore at Vol State pursuing a degree in Psychology, and I have over 3 years of experience working with children. I’ve helped as a Sunday school teacher assistant, volunteered at a daycare, and previously worked at a job where I helped run kids’ events. I also babysit for family and friends and truly enjoy spending time with kids, keeping them safe, and helping them have fun. I currently work part time at Ulta on weekends, so I’m mainly available during the week.

Rebecca G., Child Care in Portland, TN 37148 with 12 years of paid experience

Caring for children has been the heart of my life for over 22 years. I truly love what I do, and I believe every child deserves to feel safe, valued, and encouraged to grow at their own pace. As a longtime childcare provider and a homeschool mom, I bring both professional experience and real-life understanding of how children learn, develop, and thrive in a nurturing environment. I have extensive experience working with children of all ages, including children on the autism spectrum, and I am trained to support different learning styles and individual needs with patience and compassion. Creating a structured yet loving atmosphere is important to me—one where children can explore, create, and build confidence while having fun. I am CPR certified and committed to maintaining a safe, positive, and enriching space for every child in my care. For me, childcare is more than a job—it is a calling. I feel honored to partner with families and be a part of each child’s growth, learning, and everyday moments.

I have over 20 years experience watching children of all ages.  I was a foster parent several years ago.  I do know first aid and safety, where I learned CPR for infants and children as well as anti-choking techniques. My major in college was Elementary Education, but I have since changed it to Child Psychology. I love kids of all ages.  I enjoy a hands on approach and love to get down on a child's level.
