Caroline L., Child Care in Powell, TN 37849 with 4 years of paid experience

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.

Emary has been working with our family as a nanny for the past few months and we couldn't be more thrilled with her performance. Our sons verbal and non-verbal skills developed more under her care in one month than he did with our previous nanny in four months! Emary is dependable, reliable, trust-worthy, warm and friendly towards our son (as well as our four-legged son) and always has a great attitude. I can tell she genuinely cares about children and has a talent to bond with a child and make them smile. Emary is mature beyond her years. I'm very happy she's apart of our family.

I am in college to be a physicians assistant with 2 years left! I love being a sitter because it is very rewarding to help, watch, and attend to your children growing! I have been babysitting for around 10-11 years now, ranging from ages 2 months old-13 years old. Past roles/ responsibilities I have had are assisting with homework, preparing meals/snacks, running errands, laundry, and basic cleaning. I am CPR certified, First aid certified, and worked as a PCA for 2 years; I also have a clean driving record!

Kayla L., Child Care in Powell, TN 37849 with 3 years of paid experience

I have had experience as a Lead Teacher at our church for Parents Day Out (PDO) as of January, 2026. I had 14, 1-2yr olds (12 mnths- 24 mnths+). The children filtered out as they aged/obtained the life skills they needed in order to move up in classes. By the time I completed this job in July, I had had anywhere from 14-30 students in total. I enjoy teaching children how to walk, talk, clean up toys, reading to them, and helping them grow. I have a 3 year old and a 5 year old myself. I am also a youth pastors wife and have helped in various churches in the children’s ministries of all age groups. I have lots of experience and really enjoy teaching. I have also been a substitute teacher, long term sub, and a teacher’s aid. I am CPR and AED certified as well.

Christina B., Child Care in Powell, TN 37849 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.

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!

Elise irene C., Child Care in Powell, TN 37849 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!

Karla R., Child Care in Powell, TN 37849 with 20 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Karla and for the past 20 years, caring for children has been something I truly love and feel passionate about. I have had the opportunity to care for infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids, and every family I’ve worked with has been a special part of my journey. I genuinely adore being around children and I find so much joy and helping them feel safe, happy, loved and cared for. Taking care of children is something I truly love and take great pride in. I am a kind, loving, compassionate, patient, and nurturing person. I understand that every child is unique, and I believe they deserve to feel safe, respected, heard, and loved. When I care for a child, I treat them with the same gentleness, attention, and care that I would give to my own family. Over the years, I have had the privilege of watching children grow, learn, and develop, and those relationships have been incredibly meaningful to me. I enjoy creating a fun and positive environment where children can be themselves while also providing the structure, supervision, and guidance they need. I take my responsibility as a caregiver very seriously. Parents are trusting me with the most precious part of their lives, and I never take that trust for granted. I am dependable, attentive, and committed to making sure children are happy, comfortable, safe, and well cared for while they are in my care. I also believe communication with parents is extremely important. I am happy to provide updates throughout the day so parents can feel connected and reassured while they are away. Most importantly, I truly love what I do. Being able to care for children, make them smile, comfort them when they need it, and be a positive and loving presence in their lives is incredibly rewarding to me. I would be honored to have the opportunity to become a trusted caregiver for your family! ❤️

Ava R., Child Care in Powell, TN 37849 with 3 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Ava, and I am currently a junior at the University of Tennessee studying Finance and Economics. I love children and come from a big family where I’m the oldest of 6 (current ages are 16-3 years old) and have babysitted countless of times for my parents. I additionally frequently volunteer at Muse, Knoxville, which has been so much fun teaching children about STEAM and the power of curiosity. I was a lifeguard in high school for about 3 years, so I have training in CPR, First Aid, and water safety. Furthermore, all throughout high school and into college, I was a tutor for other students mainly in math and science. I am fully available for weekends and can be made available for week nights as well. I have my own car and have plenty of experience with changing diapers, bedtime routine, meal preparation, and finding ways to be creative away from screens. I would be perfect for any family looking for a sitter who loves playing outside, animals, reading, playing board games, and creating!

Stephanie H., Child Care in Powell, TN 37849 with 10 years of paid experience

I moved to Tennessee in 2017 to care for my mother and eldest sister. I lost both in 2020. I have raised two son one is 30 and 26. I don't have grandchildren yet and when I decided to go back to work I wanted to be around children instead of being at a desk and do accounting. I love to see children play free and grow. I just left the Kim family where I started with the infant was 2 weeks old and the toddler was 18 months. I am a nanny for the entire family and home. When things get done during my time there , that gives the family more quality time together. I do also travel and do play dates ride to the park. I would love to meet a new family to love on. I am certified in infant CPR and well as CPR and first aid
