Hi, I’m Kimberly. As a caring and dependable caregiver in South Charleston, I bring years of experience in nurturing children and supporting their development. I genuinely love helping others and find joy in being part of a child's growth. I’m eager to offer childcare that includes meal prep, feeding, cleanup, engaging activities, and assistance with morning or evening routines, or any daily needs.

I am a junior at University of Charleston pursuing my Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) with plans to continue on to become a Nurse Practitioner. I am CPR and Basic Life Support (BLS) certified, giving me the knowledge and training to handle emergencies calmly and responsibly. I am dependable, patient, and caring, and I enjoy working with children of all ages. My nursing education has strengthened my communication, safety awareness, and ability to stay organized and attentive in fast-paced situations. I strive to create a fun, safe, and positive environment for every child while giving parents peace of mind knowing their children are in good hands. Fun fact: I am a cheerleader at the University of Charleston!

I’ve always loved working with children and have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for my 10 nieces and nephews, who range from ages 1 to 10. I’ve been babysitting them since they were born, so I’m very comfortable with infants, toddlers, and older children. I also know how to perform CPR, though I’m not currently certified. I’m patient, observant, and dependable, and I enjoy helping children learn and grow. Whether it’s assisting with schoolwork, keeping them engaged in fun activities, or simply making sure they feel safe and cared for, I put my full attention into the kids I’m watching. I recently graduated high school and plan to attend college to study respiratory therapy. I bring a caring personality, strong sense of responsibility, and a calm attitude to every babysitting job. Parents can count on me to provide a safe, positive, and supportive environment for their children.

What I love most about working with kids is creating a fun and safe space where they can be happy. I've worked with kids from toddlers to school-aged, so I know how to change my approach to fit their age. I'm good at setting up daily routines, like making meals, planning activities, and getting them ready for bed, so everything runs smoothly. I'm a good communicator, and I'm patient, empathetic, and can handle conflicts well. I'm also good at coming up with fun games, crafts, and outdoor activities that are right for their age. I can think on my feet and stay calm in unexpected situations. Plus, I'm organized, and dependable, so parents know they can count on me. Oh, and being a mom to my 2year old definitely adds to my experience!

I have been a caregiver since 16 years old. I have raised and homeschooled both of my adult children. My degree studies were in child psychology and special education. I have experience with twins, potty training and early education. I love all my nanny kids as if they are my own and still have close relationships with each of them. I practice attachment parenting so I believe in cuddles, kindness and definitely following all the parents rules.

Hi, my name is Nikayla! I currently work nights in EKG at Charleston Area Medical Center and am looking for daytime babysitting opportunities. I am BLS (Basic Life Support) certified and have years of hands-on childcare experience from helping care for my younger brother and many of my younger family members as the oldest sibling in a large family. I am dependable, patient, and attentive, and I understand the importance of creating a safe, positive, and nurturing environment for children. Whether it's helping with daily routines, keeping kids engaged with fun activities, assisting with homework, or simply providing reliable care while parents are away, I take pride in being someone families can trust. While I am just beginning my professional babysitting journey, caring for children has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I would love the opportunity to earn your trust and show the positive impact I can make in your home. I look forward to meeting your family and helping make your day a little easier!

Hi! My name is Llenaj, and I have a genuine passion for caring for children and helping them grow in a safe, fun, and loving environment. I have hands-on experience babysitting my younger cousins, as well as working in a daycare setting, where I learned the importance of patience, responsibility, and creating positive experiences for kids of all ages. As the oldest of three children in a single-parent household, I naturally took on a big role in helping raise my younger siblings. This taught me valuable life skills like leadership, reliability, and understanding the daily needs of children. I am also certified in First Aid and CPR, which gives families extra peace of mind knowing their children are in safe and capable hands. I strive to be dependable, nurturing, and someone both parents and children can trust and feel comfortable with.
