Sittercity helps Oak Ridge families find the best nannies

It is my pleasure to present you with my credentials as a child care provider and family assistant. I recently retired from teaching 34+ years in bilingual elementary classrooms and move to NC to be near my grown son. I hold a master’s degree in Education and various teaching licenses and endorsements. I love kids and families and I am here to help in whichever way I can. I have extensive experience and knowledge in newborn care as I ran a child care center for 10 years when my second son was little. I am a schooled chef. I primarily love preparing healthy meals and snacks and teaching others about growing food and eating optimally. I'm happy to help with errands, purchasing, managing and housekeeping with non toxic products. I believe I used to be a dog and just love, love them as much as they love me. I'm organized, punctual, resourceful, creative, outdoorsy, hard working and very loving. I am looking forward to see how I can be of help to your family. Hugs, Mrs. Maria

I am very adventurous and open minded to all things in life. I love nature, hanging out, and meeting new people. I've also always loved kids and pets, babysitting was one of my first jobs and i loved it. It taught me patience at a young age and im forever grateful for it. For anymore questions or concerns, please message me!

Hi, my name is Valerie and I am interested in part-time childcare work. I am a mom of 5 Vikings ( as my husband and I call them). My two oldest have moved out, and I have 2 in High School and 1 in Community College. I have been a stay-at-home mom for (most of) 23 yrs. When I realized that my kids would rather be with their friends I decided it was time to get out of the house. My neighbor agreed and offered me up as a nanny for friends of hers. I obtained my CPR certification and accepted a temporary Nanny position, part-time, for an infant. I so enjoyed my time with a little again! My position ended when circumstances changed and the family moved from the area. Since that first job, I’ve had a family in town for two days for work and hired me to care for their infant for a few days. Then two very lovely families who each only needed me part of the week became my primary jobs. One family had a toddler girl and the other a toddler boy. Both of those children will begin a school/daycare program this August, so I currently have days to fill. Pre-Husband and Vikings, I earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Earth Science at Central Michigan University. Being a bit of a wanderer, I found myself in Chicago working at an Ad Agency! My family and I moved to Greensboro about 8yrs ago, and we enjoy having both mountains and Ocean available for our adventures. I enjoy getting outdoors daily, and perhaps it’s the Earth Science background, but I love taking the little ones outside and introducing them to the trees, flowers, birds, whatever we come across. Kids are such natural sponges, they soak it all in. Having the opportunity to smell or touch or hold something greatly improves their understanding, and I like to introduce words such as rough or smooth to help them be able to learn the difference and to describe what they feel.

Hello, hello! My name is Ashley Bailey, I’m 23 and I’m an experienced childcare provider located in Greensboro. I am a recent graduate of NCAT’s Biology program with a minor in Creative Writing. As you can see, my interests range from scientific to artistic, but childcare has been a powerful constant in my life. Starting my professional childcare journey in the summer of 2020, I have gained a multitude of experience with children of all ages. My specialty is newborn and infant care. I work closely with first time parents to not only ease their mind as they navigate the early life of their new addition, but welcome a caregiver into their home for the first time as well. I have extensive knowledge of infant milestones and experience with sleep training, bottle feeding, the transition to solid foods, and the development of motor skills. I have a structured, developmental, and empathetic approach to childcare that I work to improve every day. I am well versed with essential tasks such as maintaining routines, meal preparation, and light housekeeping. I have experience with tutoring and online learning assistance. I love to teach as much as I love to learn, but I also enjoy fun activities such as in/outdoor games and crafts. I constantly encourage creativity and imagination! I’m always up for a trip out and about. I have experience transporting children in my own reliable vehicle as well as family cars, so I am quite comfortable with car seat installation. I am CPR/First Aid certified, with extensive knowledge of pediatric medical emergencies. Working in childcare has been such a privilege in my life and I look forward to building more bonds! All the best, Ashley Bailey
