Booked by 2 families in Braden, TN

Hey ! I’m Sunshine and I am 19 years old. I currently work at an aftercare/preschool center, but I have been babysitting for years now. I love working with kids and typically work better with older age groups! I am also open to pet sitting, dogs or cats, and house sitting! I have done pet sitting and house sitting off and on for the past couple years as well :) I also did first aid and CPR training classes a couple years ago! I wanted to add to be more clear with my schedule; I am open any weekend, but I am only available past 6pm on weekdays.

“I booked with Sunshine for drop-in pet sitter services while I was out of town. She was very friendly, courteous and easy to work with! She was absolutely wonderful with my pets - a dog and cats - and took great care of them. I would highly recommend Sunshine and will book with her again!”

Emma $25 per hour for 1 child

I’m a compassionate, dependable, and patient caregiver who genuinely enjoys helping others. I have experience caring for children, pets, and assisting with household tasks, and I’m known for being responsible, organized, and calm under pressure. My background in political science and current graduate studies in psychology have strengthened my communication, problem-solving, and understanding of people’s needs. Whether it’s providing a safe, engaging environment for children, offering companionship to seniors, caring for pets, or helping with errands and light housekeeping, I strive to make life a little easier for the families I work with. I value honesty, kindness, and reliability, and I treat every person with the same respect and care I would want for my own loved ones.

I am the head coach for Lakeland Preparatory middle school boys lacrosse team. I have been the head coach of this program for 3 years, and both parents and players will attest that I am extremely effective at teaching young boys about self respect, discipline and independence. I also have 4 younger siblings that I, for a large portion of my life, have taken care of.

Lindsay $30 per hour for 1 child

I’m a mom, former early childhood educator, and experienced nanny who especially loves caring for babies. I have a Master’s in Early Childhood Education along with a background in Montessori education, functional nutrition, and many years of working with children and families. I’m calm, nurturing, dependable, and very comfortable with the rhythms of caring for little ones—feeding, bottles, diapering, soothing, naps, developmental play, and keeping their environment peaceful and predictable. Most recently, I cared for an 18-month-old 35 hours a week and managed his full daytime routine, including meals, naps, play, music, outdoor time, and early learning. I’m particularly interested in newborn and infant care, including overnight positions where I can support both baby and exhausted parents through those early months. I’m also an animal lover, comfortable with pets, and happy to help with the everyday tasks directly related to baby’s care. I’m currently looking for a consistent position with a family who wants a mature, experienced caregiver they can truly trust with their little one.
