Veronica was the most amazing caregiver! She was the ultimate professional and my daughter loved spending time with her each day. We needed a daytime companion for our special needs teen who could keep her occupied from 8-6 daily. Veronica filled the day with wonderful activities that engaged her both cognitively and creatively. She always provided daily updates complete with photos of their experiences and it was true peace of mind to see my daughter so happily cared for. Do not miss a chance to utilize her stellar services!

Brenda P., Nanny in Durham, NC 27713 with 10 years of paid experience

Thanks for reviewing my profile! There's nothing I would rather do than be with infants, toddlers & children. I provide whatever each child needs - comfort and cuddling, down-on-the-floor game playing, or, athletic, artistic and intellectual activities. With experience as both a pre-school teacher and mother of three remarkable daughters, I respect & adore children of all ages, using patience, kindness, redirection and humor to bring out the best in them (and in myself!). I have a proven ability to swiftly form trusting bonds with children & I consider caring for their well-being to be one of humankind's most important responsibilities. I am a founding board member of the Golisano Children's Museum in Naples, FL, where I just relocated from after 35 years! I hold a BA degree in Literature & my interests include history, jazz, nutrition, biking, art, & photography. Seeking short term, occasional, newborn support, one-time, special event, sick care & emergency. $25/hr.

Brenda watched my 8 month old baby girl for us last minute and she was fantastic. She engaged with age appropriate play during her wake time, kept her on her schedule, and even help straighten up the house while she was napping. She was punctual, professional, gave a great end of day report to us, and best of all our daughter loved her. We would love to have her back anytime our schedules align again.

We had a wonderful experience with Erica! She is warm, friendly, and put our four kids at ease right away. We especially appreciated how communicative she was throughout the evening, sending updates that gave us total peace of mind. She even went above and beyond by tidying up before we got home. Highly recommend!

Chinwendu A., Nanny in Durham, NC 27713 with 3 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Chinwendu! I am a recent graduate of The UNC at Chapel Hill. I have a current NC-EMT license, so I am both CPR and First Aid certified. I have multiple years of experience babysitting children of all ages. In my teens, I worked in a small home daycare service which cared for around 7+ children at a time (ages 3-12). I also volunteered in various children's sunday school classes at my church for 5 years (newborns-5/6-year-olds) as well as for a kids basketball team at the Salvation Army! I love teaching and learning with kids, reading, and staying active. I would love to hear from you if you think I'd be a good fit! :) I'm re-entering school on the 14th with a schedule of 9-3:30pm M-Th; no school on Fridays 🙌🏾 At the moment, I'm prioritizing looking for one family who needs before and after school care & then supplementing with date nights if needed!

Chinwendu is absolutely fantastic with our 7 month old. She has helped him develop and reach his milestones, is patient and caring, and Noah is often laughing and smiling with her when I return. Chinwendu is always punctual, is flexible, and reliably follows any directions or schedules we have. I highly recommend her as a caregiver.

Hadley R., Nanny in Durham, NC 27713 with 8 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Hadley and I’m looking for summer (possibly into fall) nanny positions. I’m 28 and starting my master’s program at the end of May, so I’m looking for daytime roles to help you out while your kids are out of school. I’ve been babysitting since I was a young teen, but have worked professionally in childcare and education since graduating college in 2020. I’ve worked several positions, including a first grade teaching assistant, middle school substitute, and a daycare teacher. I have extensive experience with children of all ages, from infancy through middle school. Please feel free to ask me any in-depth questions about my experience! I love babysitting because it gives me a chance to focus on getting to know one or a few children, giving me plenty of time to get close to them and their families. I love the freedom to do a variety of activities, letting us have maximum play time together. I am also first aid and CPR certified, and feel confident in my ability to keep your children safe, which is ultimately my most important duty as a caregiver. Please let me know if any additional info you’d like to have. I’m happy to provide documents and references as needed!
