Find experienced nannies in Sylva, NC

Hi there! My name is Kara and I’m 30 years old. Currently, I work as a full time professional nanny for a 1 year old girl! I have cared for children ranging from newborn (few days old) all the way up to middle school age with several years experience. The best qualities to describe me would be honest, outgoing, trustworthy, creative, and fun. I'm also CPR certified and first aid certified. In my spare time I like to spend time at the beach, spend time with friends, stay active, reading books, doing anything outdoors, or doing really anything to stay busy. Patience is key and children are my passion. I have also taken multiple classes regarding newborns, infants, and toddlers based upon safety, general care, and sleep conditioning!! Last but not least, I’m a certified advanced newborn care specialist, in a self paced program without a deadline studying to become a certified postpartum doula, as well as another self paced program without a deadline studying to become a certified pediatric sleep consultant! Hope to hear from you!

I am fun loving college sitter with over six years of experience! I have been a nanny for a young boy from when he was 6 months to 4 years old. I have also been an overnight camp counselor for young girls ages 6-10. From this camp experience, I have gained an additional 600 hours working with children. I am child and infant CPR and first aid certified as well. I also am a licensed driver with a clean record (no tickets and have never been in an accident).

I'm a Recent Graduate at WCU with a BS in Psychology, and I have a deep passion for working with children. I've been babysitting for over five years and have experience with children 2 weeks to 10 years old. In addition to babysitting, I've volunteered in Sunday school and youth church programs, worked at the Boys & Girls Club, and spent a year as an Exceptional Children's Teaching Assistant (ECTA). In that role, I worked directly with children with autism, ADHD, and other support needs. These experiences have strengthened my ability to nurture children's learning, creativity, and emotional growth. I'm comfortable caring for kids of all ages and Im happy to help even when little ones are feeling under the weather. I'm also a big dog lover! However, due to a severe cat allergy, I wouldn't be the right fit for homes with cats. I'd love to connect with families in need of a dependable, caring nanny. Please feel free to reach out with any questions-I'd be happy to chat!

Hi! My name is Gretchen May, and I'm currently starting my junior year as an Elementary Education major at Western Carolina University. Back in high school in my hometown of Raleigh, NC, I interned at Bright Horizons daycare during my senior year, and I was lucky enough to be offered a job there afterward. I've worked there every summer since, and it’s truly where my love for working with children — especially babies — grew even more. I love being a working with children because I can help them grow, see them reach milestones, and help them learn through every activity. Thank you so much!
