Hello! My name is Joyce, and I have over 20 years of experience providing dependable, loving, and attentive care for children of all ages, from newborns to school-aged kids. Caring for children isn't just my job—it's something I truly enjoy and take pride in. I create a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can learn, grow, and have fun. I enjoy planning educational activities, reading, arts and crafts, outdoor play, and helping with homework. I believe in building strong, trusting relationships with both children and parents through open communication, patience, and reliability. Families describe me as caring, trustworthy, organized, and dependable. I understand how important it is for parents to have peace of mind, and I strive to provide the highest level of care every day. Whether you're looking for full-time, part-time, or occasional childcare, I would love the opportunity to support your family and become a positive part of your children's lives. I look forward to meeting you!

I graduated from UNC in 2005 with a degree in philosophy and psychology, and I have taken many child development classes. I'm interested in the environment and working with kids. I have been baby-sitting regularly for 25 years. I am willing to provide references upon request but would prefer not to post any online.  I was a preschool teacher and have worked with children of all ages, but primarily with ages 1-5.  I like cooking and craft activities and enjoy being outside.  I have done overnight baby-sitting and traveled with families.  I am willing to baby-sit for large families or two families together - I am used to working with a group of six at school and enjoy working with larger groups of children.  I currently work full time as a nanny but am available in the evenings, weekends, and for overnights for baby-sitting.  I am also available to transport your child from your home to your child's school.  I enjoy seeing children learn and show passion in whatever is interesting to them.  I love watching children grow and figure things out - it's so exciting to me to see a child who was struggling with something conquer it!  I love to hear a child tell me all about something that is interesting to them.  I believe that adults learn from children as much as children learn from adults, and I look forward to opportunities to learn from your kids. I am comfortable with all kinds of pets and don't mind doing pet care while I'm baby-sitting. I am also an experienced pet-sitter.

Hiii, I’m Kynnedi, a 20 year-old nursing major college student. I have been a sitter for 8 years, watching children from an infant to preteens. I’ve watched kids at church to babysitting at individual homes. I love kids and been raised in a large family being the oldest of 5.

I have a passion for working with children. I have a degree specializing in child development - specifically child psychology and expressive arts therapy. I’ve spent the last 8 years nannying and teaching music. My goal is to foster a tailored environment for each child in my care, as all children learn and grow differently. I believe a well balanced combination of unstructured child-led exploration(ie make believe, pretend play, dancing etc) and structured activities (ie educational content, crafts, reading etc) creates an atmosphere where children thrive. I follow “gentle parenting” practices and encourage age-appropriate communication and redirection when necessary.

Through child care, I’ve learned how important patience, communication, responsibility, and attentiveness are when caring for children. I’m comfortable multitasking, staying organized, and adapting to the different needs of each child and family. I have strong skills in communication, patience, organization, and problem-solving. I am dependable, responsible, caring, and able to remain calm in different situations.

I understand the importance of safety, routines, and positive interactions. I’m always willing to continue learning and growing so I can provide the best care possible for families and their children. I’m a caring and hardworking person who enjoys helping others and making a positive impact. I value kindness, responsibility, and building strong relationships with the families I work with. I enjoy bringing positive energy into every environment and being someone children can feel safe and comfortable around.
