Find experienced nannies in Oakland, TN

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.

I was born and raised in Tennessee , and find myself always returning. I enjoy the many outdoor activities including zip-lining, running and hiking. I consider myself very outdoorsy, and think it's important to take advantage of this beautiful area. I am also a creative person, so art (more specifically painting) have been a great outlet and passion. I enjoy sharing my love of the outdoors and creativity/art with kids. I have over ten years of experience including babysitting, pre-school teaching and most recently an au pair for a 6 month old baby boy who is now 7. I think it's important to provide children with a fun, fulfilling and enriched environment. I am an enthusiastic and responsible person and look forward to meeting you and your kids!

I enjoy babysitting so much! It allows me to stay in touch with my inner child and joy while going through life as a Freshman in College. Along with influencing my passion to want to become a pediatric nurse.

I love being a sitter because I truly enjoy helping children feel safe, supported, and happy while giving parents peace of mind. I have a little more than 3 years of childcare experience caring for children between the ages of 11 months and 5 years in multiple home settings, where I assisted with daily routines, playtime, meals, and transportation to activities. I am patient, dependable, and attentive, and I always make safety and positive engagement a priority. My background in psychology has strengthened my ability to understand children’s behavior, emotions, and developmental needs, and I value creating a calm, nurturing environment where children feel comfortable and encouraged. I am organized, responsible, and communicate clearly with parents to ensure consistent and trustworthy care.

I am a college graduate who loves kids and is looking to help out some parents this semester . I am a dancer, love to play games and have fun with kids. I am currently a health science major in school intending to peruse a concentration in pediatrics .. so the youth definitely holds a warm place in my heart :)! I love to have fun with the kiddos and truly have a good time! Let’s connect!
