Hi! I’m Arwen, a student at UTK studying Marketing. I’ve spent most of my life as a competitive dancer, which has given me lots of experience working with younger children, especially through helping with classes and caring for kids from my studio. I love creating a fun and comfortable environment for kids, whether we’re playing games, doing crafts, dancing, reading, or spending time outside. I’m responsible, patient, dependable, and happy to follow each family’s routines and preferences. I’m also bilingual in English and Spanish and am comfortable helping with light housekeeping, homework, meals, and other needs around the home. I’d love to find families I can build a trusting relationship with and help out whenever they need!

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.

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!
