Booked by 4 families in Jonesboro, GA

Hello! My name is Marlee, and I've been a caregiver for over 3 years, working as a babysitter, daycare teacher, mentor, and nanny. I am CPR-certified with experience caring for children of all ages- most of my experience being with preschoolers. I have a strong understanding of early childhood milestones and lesson planning creating a fun, safe, educational, and nurturing environment for every child in my care. l've had the opportunity to babysit for a few tamilies, including my experience as a daycare teacher, but I'm currently looking for a recurring family to work with long term ! I'd love to assist you in caring for your little one while you're busy! Let me know if you have any questions-l'd be happy to chat more!

Marlee was professional, arrived on time and was able to calm a very fussy infant. She also helped with cleaning the baby bottles after putting her to sleep. I highly recommend her.

Booked by 8 families in Jonesboro, GA

Hello! Thank you for viewing my profile. I'm Kayla Spain, 25 years old. I have recently graduated from Alabama State University, majoring in Biology Pre-health. I have been caring for children since I became an older sister to my younger brother. I became a babysitter on a regular basis and also was there for my younger cousins as well. I have a lot of experience working with infants and toddlers. I've worked for a daycare at the age of 14- 18 where I prepared meals, developed lesson plans, and also maintained a safe and clean environment. I honestly love working with young kids and I make sure it's my mission to make sure they are keeping a smile on their face.

I've worked with Kayla a few times now, and she has been wonderful each time. She is very reliable and so patient with my little guy. Always punctual and quick to respond, which I really appreciate. I'd gladly work with her again!
