Denise C., Nanny in Lakeland, TN 38002 with 25 years of paid experience

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.

Denny cared for our 2 year-old daughter with a lot of attention and eased our minds about hiring a sitter. She didn't turn on the TV once, which I really appreciated! She arrived on time and as an added bonus, gave our cat some loving snuggles :) Highly recommend!

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.

Joyce was our nanny for five years, caring for our twin boys, and we truly couldn't have asked for a better person. She quickly became part of our family, and the love and care she showed our boys were exceptional. Our twins absolutely adored Joyce, and so did my wife and I. She was patient, dependable, trustworthy, and always went above and beyond to make sure our boys were safe, happy, and thriving. She kept them engaged with fun, educational activities, encouraged positive behavior, and treated them with the same love and attention she would her own family. As parents, there is no greater comfort than knowing your children are in caring and capable hands. Joyce gave us that peace of mind every single day. She was always punctual, professional, and communicated with us openly about our children's progress and daily activities. After five wonderful years, we can confidently say that Joyce is one of the best caregivers anyone could hope for. We are forever grateful for the love, dedication, and positive impact she had on our family. I recommend her without hesitation to any family looking for an outstanding nanny. She will be an incredible blessing to your family, just as she was to ours.

Hi! I’m originally from Nashville, TN, where I began my journey as a childcare provider at the YMCA before transitioning into professional nanny care. I have over 8 years of childcare experience working with children of different ages, including infants, as well as caring for multiple children at once. I am also a business owner, which has strengthened my communication, organization, and time-management skills. I especially enjoy working with babies and would love to continue expanding my experience in newborn and infant care. I am CPR certified and comfortable following each family's established routine, including feeding, soothing, diaper changes, bottle preparation, naps, playtime, and any additional care parents may need. I am patient, attentive, dependable, and understand the importance of communication and consistency when caring for children. I look forward to meeting you and your little one!

Rylie L., Nanny in Lakeland, TN 38002 with 3 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Rylie and i have 3+ years of professional nanny experience. I am Cpr/first aid certified and I have experience with Autism and Adhd so I can help with any extra support needs your child may have. To give you a little insight into the kind of nanny i am, I am a very energetic and creative person so I am great at coming up with activities and I love to go outside and run around with the kids I care for. I am also passionate about development so I enjoy helping kids reach their milestones. Some of my favorite things to do as a nanny is art projects, going to park, reading, dancing and any sort of special outing such as the library or the zoo. I just love getting to watch young minds grow and be someone who can help shape the kind of person they grow up to be. Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you!

Hi! I am Elise! I am currently a student at Loewenburg College of Nursing (LCON). I plan to work in the NICU/PICU when I graduate. I have quite a bit of experience with babysitting. I have mostly done volunteer babysitting for family and friends in there time of need, but I have paid experience as well. I would prefer to babysit children from the ages of 3 months to 2 years because I have the most experience with that age group, but I am open to all ages! I have a BLS Certification with the American Heart Association: this includes a certification in CPR and First Aid.

Madison M., Nanny in Lakeland, TN 38002 with 10 years of paid experience

After graduating from college, I immediately entered the workforce pursuing a career in my field of study. Although I enjoy my job, I have been reminded of how much I miss being a nanny! My heart is with kids! Some of my favorite times have been cooking meals and taking children on local adventures. I am happy to help with daily household needs. Additionally, I have spent the majority of my high school and college years tutoring and would be happy to help with homework if needed. I have been CPR/AED certified as well as First Aid trained. I would love to utilize my talents and skills along with my love for kids to create a fun, safe, and secure environment that supports your family.
