Sarah W., Nanny in Knoxville, TN 37919 with 0 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Sarah, and I am so excited to introduce myself. I am a wife and a mama to the sweetest little boy, and being a mother has truly been the greatest joy of my life. Caring for children isn’t just something I’m good at — it’s something I deeply love. There is no greater privilege than being trusted with someone’s child, and I don’t take that lightly. I’m 21 years old and have been a stay-at-home mom since May of 2024. This season of life has taught me patience, creativity, flexibility, and just how important it is for children to feel safe, heard, and loved. Now that my son has started daycare and is building special friendships of his own, I feel ready and excited to pour that same love and care into another family. I come from a big family — one of four siblings — and I have enough nieces and nephews to make up a full football team! Being surrounded by children of all ages has given me natural experience with different personalities, routines, and stages of development. I’ve also worked at a daycare where I learned how to balance structure and fun while maintaining a safe, nurturing environment. In addition, I volunteered at my church, which further strengthened my heart for guiding and encouraging children. I am CPR and First Aid certified and have a reliable vehicle for safe transportation if needed. I’m comfortable multitasking household responsibilities while making sure the children in my care always feel like the priority. I value open communication, consistency, and creating a calm, loving atmosphere. More than anything, I’m not just looking to be “a nanny.” I would truly love to become an extension of your family — someone your children feel safe with, someone you trust fully, and someone who celebrates the little milestones right alongside you. Thank you so much for considering me. I would be honored to be part of your family’s journey.

Carly L., Nanny in Knoxville, TN 37919 with 5 years of paid experience

Hi there, my name is Carly. I am 25 years old. I am very good with infants and young children due to my mother being a labor and delivery nurse so I have been well adjusted to this age range. What made me want to be sitter was that I volunteered at a daycare once a week when I was in high school. My friends and I helped tutor young kids there then we would spend extra time in the baby room to give them attention as well. I have 9 years of experience as a nanny for different families working with kids anywhere from 2 months to 10 years old. I also worked in the infant room at a daycare during the Covid pandemic. I am CPR certified and have taken a course on early childhood development. I have worked with special needs, multiples, and infants. I am married to my high school sweetheart. I am currently working as a catering warehouse manager in the Knoxville area so my schedule is 9-5 on weekdays. It is a full time job so I’m just looking for extra income outside of my regular job.

Jameela D., Nanny in Knoxville, TN 37919 with 2 years of paid experience

I grew up in a big family with 7 sisters. Being one of the oldest, taking care of kids has always been in my life. From babysitting for friends and my community, to managing a kid's cooking studio, I have gathered a lot of experience. I have babysat for children as young as 6 months and as old as 16. The cooking studio gave me opportunities to teach kids life skills while giving parents free time to take a break and relax. I currently am a licensed RBT working with kids with autism and have been enjoying aspects of the field but I would love to have a more personal experience and help make an impact on a family. The training I went through to gain this certification has given me the ability to identify functions of behavior and the tools to deal with them in the best individualized way for each child. I will be renewing my CPR and First Aid certification as of 4/16/26 in order to get a refresher on those skills in my repertoire. On a more personal note, I am a very organized mind that operates off of lists and schedules while maintaining a fun and enjoyable environment. I would love to help teach children life skills and emotional regulation while also taking things off of parents' plates so they can connect more with their families. I'm really excited for this next part of this journey and thank you all for this opportunity! I hope to hear from you soon!

Kristin G., Nanny in Knoxville, TN 37919 with 0 years of paid experience

Hi there! My name is Kristin and I am 27 years old. I have 10 years of childcare experience including my wonderful 7-year-old daughter! I believe the actions and words we use today will mold our children for who they will be in the future! That is why I'm passionate about advocating for children and supporting them in developing a positive outlook on life. My expertise includes behavioral disorders, allergies/dietary restrictions, and the ability to empathize as well as set boundaries. I am also in the process of becoming CPR/First aid certified. My preferred age to care for would be 0-4 years of age. However, I am open to, and enjoy working with, kids of all ages! My goal as a caregiver is to make your day-to-day life a little easier. I'm happy to help with light housekeeping, cooking/meal prep, schoolwork, and other responsibilities related to your children. I'm fully vaccinated and looking for the same in my future employers. Thank you so much for reading, and I look forward to hearing from you.

Shannon T., Nanny in Knoxville, TN 37919 with 5 years of paid experience

I really enjoy being around kids and getting to be a positive part of their day. I like creating a fun, safe environment where they can feel comfortable, whether that’s playing games, helping with homework, or just keeping them engaged. It’s rewarding to build trust with both the kids and parents. I have about 5 years of experience working at a children’s day camp with kids ages 3–12. I’ve also done a lot of babysitting for families, so I’m comfortable handling different ages, routines, and personalities. Through my camp and babysitting experience, I’ve developed strong skills in supervising groups of kids, staying patient, and handling different situations calmly. I’m good at keeping kids engaged with activities, making sure they stay safe, and following routines set by parents. I’ve worked with a wide range of ages, so I’m adaptable and know how to adjust based on what each child needs.
