I have had experience as a Lead Teacher at our church for Parents Day Out (PDO) as of January, 2026. I had 14, 1-2yr olds (12 mnths- 24 mnths+). The children filtered out as they aged/obtained the life skills they needed in order to move up in classes. By the time I completed this job in July, I had had anywhere from 14-30 students in total. I enjoy teaching children how to walk, talk, clean up toys, reading to them, and helping them grow. I have a 3 year old and a 5 year old myself. I am also a youth pastors wife and have helped in various churches in the children’s ministries of all age groups. I have lots of experience and really enjoy teaching. I have also been a substitute teacher, long term sub, and a teacher’s aid. I am CPR and AED certified as well.

I love caring for young children! Watching them grow, develop, and change is incredible! I have a Bachelor's degree in Child Development and I've worked for over 30 years combined in both center-based care and as a Nanny. I'm looking for full-time (at least 30 hours per week). I'm certified in First Aid and CPR ,have a reliable vehicle, am fully insured, and comfortable transporting children on outings. I have excellent references (available upon request).

Karla R., Nanny in Knoxville, TN 37919 with 20 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Karla and for the past 20 years, caring for children has been something I truly love and feel passionate about. I have had the opportunity to care for infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids, and every family I’ve worked with has been a special part of my journey. I genuinely adore being around children and I find so much joy and helping them feel safe, happy, loved and cared for. Taking care of children is something I truly love and take great pride in. I am a kind, loving, compassionate, patient, and nurturing person. I understand that every child is unique, and I believe they deserve to feel safe, respected, heard, and loved. When I care for a child, I treat them with the same gentleness, attention, and care that I would give to my own family. Over the years, I have had the privilege of watching children grow, learn, and develop, and those relationships have been incredibly meaningful to me. I enjoy creating a fun and positive environment where children can be themselves while also providing the structure, supervision, and guidance they need. I take my responsibility as a caregiver very seriously. Parents are trusting me with the most precious part of their lives, and I never take that trust for granted. I am dependable, attentive, and committed to making sure children are happy, comfortable, safe, and well cared for while they are in my care. I also believe communication with parents is extremely important. I am happy to provide updates throughout the day so parents can feel connected and reassured while they are away. Most importantly, I truly love what I do. Being able to care for children, make them smile, comfort them when they need it, and be a positive and loving presence in their lives is incredibly rewarding to me. I would be honored to have the opportunity to become a trusted caregiver for your family! ❤️

Stephanie H., Nanny in Knoxville, TN 37919 with 10 years of paid experience

I moved to Tennessee in 2017 to care for my mother and eldest sister. I lost both in 2020. I have raised two son one is 30 and 26. I don't have grandchildren yet and when I decided to go back to work I wanted to be around children instead of being at a desk and do accounting. I love to see children play free and grow. I just left the Kim family where I started with the infant was 2 weeks old and the toddler was 18 months. I am a nanny for the entire family and home. When things get done during my time there , that gives the family more quality time together. I do also travel and do play dates ride to the park. I would love to meet a new family to love on. I am certified in infant CPR and well as CPR and first aid

Heidi S., Nanny in Knoxville, TN 37919 with 10 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Heidi, and I’m a creative, nurturing, and experienced caregiver who loves helping children learn, explore, and grow! I’ve called the Knoxville area home for the past 20 years and am the proud mom of two children, ages 17 and 19. Being a mom has been one of my greatest joys as I created a supportive environment where safety, love, and independence were woven together. I received a college degree in Humanities with a focus on education and art, and have a diverse background in childcare. My experience includes babysitting, nannying, summer nanny positions, tutoring, and working as a day camp assistant director. I also had the privledge of both homeschooling my children and assisting in their classrooms when they attended public school, giving me a well-rounded understanding of children’s educational and developmental needs. I also have experience teaching and caring for children with special needs like food allergies and autism. Outside of childcare, I have worked as a florist and enjoy birding, hiking, and restoring older houses. I love thinking creativity and finding beauty in the details of nature. I look forward to bringing that same thoughtfulness and passion for learning into the time I spend with your children. I currently work with a family on Fridays, and am available for childcare during business hours Monday-Thursday and occasional date nights. I am also open to discussing a Mon-Wed nanny position in the Maryville/Alcoa area. I would love the opportunity to provide dependable, attentive care so parents can enjoy a stress free day knowing their little ones are actively being engaged with and expanding their horizons.

Virginia E., Nanny in Knoxville, TN 37919 with 8 years of paid experience

Hello, I’m Virginia, and I’m a Knoxville native. I’d like to say that caregiving is just in my blood. I grew up in a big family so the occasional chaos that comes with raising kids and having little feet running around everywhere is something I am very used to. I graduated from college with a B.S. in Psychology about 1.5 years ago, and after college I moved to Ft. Lauderdale where I spent the last year as a live in nanny and chef to a great family. It was a huge learning experience, and I loved seeing the kids grow so much in that little amount of time. Having a caring, patient, yet fun demeanor is something I always strive to have around the kids I take care of. I love baking, dancing to music, playing outside, and arts and crafts. Looking forward to the opportunity to meet you and your family!
