Hi! My name is Patience, and I’m currently studying Social Work with a minor in Psychology at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. I have over 7 years of childcare experience through nannying, babysitting, church volunteering, and working as a camp counselor. I’m also CPR, AED, and First Aid certified for Infants, children, and adults. I started babysitting when I was 12 and have worked with families throughout the Raleigh area caring for infants through middle school-aged children. I’ve also volunteered every Sunday in my church nursery caring for babies and young kids, and I’ve worked as a camp counselor with larger groups of children. Through these experiences, I’ve become very comfortable caring for multiple children at once and helping families keep daily routines running smoothly. I have experience helping with meals and snacks, homework, bedtime routines, transportation to activities, crafts, outdoor play, and keeping kids entertained in fun Read more and age-appropriate ways. I’m also happy to help with light housekeeping related to the children and making sure they are in a safe, positive, and caring environment. Working with children is something I genuinely love and care a lot about. Over the years, I’ve learned how important patience, kindness, communication, and reliability are when caring for kids. I always want both children and parents to feel comfortable with me, and I do my best to create a calm, supportive, and fun environment for every family I work with. I can also provide official background check documentation through First Advantage upon request.
