Hi! My name is Preyonna, but most people call me Pre. I’ve been working with children for over 6 years, and caring for kids isn’t just something I do, it’s something I genuinely enjoy and take pride in. I started out babysitting family members and neighbors in Chicago, then went on to become a lead teacher in a licensed daycare here in Nashville. As a lead 2’s teacher, I managed classrooms of up to 7 children, created daily routines and curriculum, supported potty training, and built strong relationships with parents through consistent, thoughtful communication. Many of those families trusted me beyond the classroom and continued working with me for babysitting even after I moved on. I’m also a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), certified since 2022. Through that work, I’ve supported children of all ages, including nonverbal children and preteens, using tools like speech devices, sign language, and behavior strategies that Read more promote real, lasting progress. I naturally bring patience, structure, and creativity into everything I do, whether that’s helping a child communicate, navigate big emotions, or just feel confident and understood. Outside of my professional experience, I’m also a mom to a toddler, which has added a whole new layer of understanding, patience, and care to the way I show up for families. I’ve built long-term relationships with many families through daycare connections, Sittercity, and referrals. I’ve been trusted in all kinds of environments, from caring for children in their homes to assisting families while they travel, including staying with children in hotels and taking them out for activities like swimming or skating. I love engaging kids through imaginative play, arts and crafts, outdoor time, and learning-based activities. I bring a balance of structure and fun. Your child will feel safe, supported, and encouraged, but they’ll also genuinely enjoy their time with me.

Pre exceeded all of our expectations, and her communication and reliability were truly top-notch. From the initial booking process to the moment she left, she kept us informed and reassured every step of the way. During her time with the kids, she provided updates that gave us complete peace of mind—whether it was a quick text to let us know bedtime went smoothly or a picture of the kids happily playing. She was punctual, prepared, and completely dependable. We never had to worry about whether she’d show up on time or if she’d follow through with our requests—she handled everything flawlessly.

I cannot recommend Pre highly enough! She recently babysat for my family, and we were beyond impressed with her professionalism, kindness, and natural connection with kids. From the moment she arrived, she put both us and the kids at ease with her warm demeanor and genuine enthusiasm. She engaged the children with fun, age-appropriate activities that kept them entertained and happy the entire time. She was attentive to their needs, incredibly patient, and ensured they followed their routines without any fuss. We were especially impressed by how she managed bedtime routine so smoothly. Not only is she great with the kids, but she’s also super reliable, punctual, and communicative. Knowing our kids were in such capable hands allowed us to fully relax and enjoy our time away. She’s an absolute gem, and we can’t wait to book her again!

Pre was AMAZING with our two year old. She was very responsive leading up to and during care which kept us at ease. We are from out of town and she watched him for a couple of evenings while we spent time in Nashville on vacation. She did great with playtime, fed him dinner, and got him to go to bed on time each night (which is no easy feat). I would definitely use her again. Highly recommend! Thanks, Pre!

Preyonna was great with our toddler and infant . Our toddler is a force to reckon with, and she came prepared like a pro with stickers and activities. We had to work from home while she took care of the kids, (we live in a small ranch styles house.) yet she made it work. She was comfortable and it felt like she knew what she was doing. Would definitely recommend her .

Pre was AMAZING! She arrived on time and took great care of our boy. She got him to sleep when he was fussy and kept us updated while we were out. Can’t say enough great things about her!
