I have been a sitter for over 20 years, and am currently pursuing a master’s degree in developmental psychology. I have experience caring for kids of all ages, and am comfortable working with larger families and children with special needs. Working with children is something about which I am passionate and which I feel a calling to pursue. As a sitter I strive to strike a balance between energetic play and calm structure. I see my job as having 3 primary duties. Most importantly, keeping the children that I am watching safe. Next, maintaining the house rules and routine, so that children have a sense of stability when their parents are gone. Finally, I want to engage with the kids I am watching and help them have fun- I want "having a sitter" to be a positive experience, something to which they look forward! Beyond sitting I've participated in Big Brothers/Big Sisters and I have taught both martial arts and Sunday school classes for the last 20+ years (typically PK-3rd). I'm CPR and first aid certified, a non-smoker, and fully vaccinated. I’ve been blessed to work with many great families, and I am happy to provide references. Please reach out if you have questions- I am happy to chat. All the best!
“Incredibly kind and professional. Truly helped us new parents have a few hours for a date night. Very grateful for taking care of our little one!!”
I have decades of experience with all age children in settings ranging from daycare to church groups to individual care. I also have two grown children of my own.
Hi! My name is Kaylee, I’m 22 years old and I’m a native to the Charlotte area. I’m currently working as a supervisor at Starbucks and attending their ASU college program. I’ve been babysitting as a side gig since I was 17 years old. My specialty ages are 4-9 years old. I typically help with after school activities such as homework, reading and writing as well as other fun stuff like coloring, crafts and outdoor activities. On top of that, I can cook lunch or dinner and clean up the dishes when they’re finished. My objectives while babysitting include making sure your child is having good, safe fun while simultaneously wearing them out so once I leave, they’re ready for bedtime, a nap or quiet time. I’m said to be friendly, helpful, punctual and energetic so I’ll have no problems keeping up with the energy levels a child has. While my profile is geared towards babysitting I have no issue with running errands, cooking or cleaning up if that is what your family needs! I’ve grown up with German Shepards and occasionally dog-sit Pomeranians so I’m experienced with both large and small dogs. I also have a cat of my own so I’m comfortable with them as well. I look forward to meeting you and your little ones!

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
