I am forty years old and currently live in Smithfield, NC. I have a BA in Public Policy Analysis from UNC Chapel Hill and have completed twenty-four hours toward a Masters degree in Public Administration at UNC Wilmington. I am just returning to the workforce as a Volunteer Coordinator for the SECU Hospice House in Smithfield following handling my mother’s estate and being her caretaker following a fourteen year career as the Executive Director at Downtown Smithfield Development Corporation. I have been babysitting for more than twenty-five years, since the age of twelve. I was a YMCA Afterschool Counselor, Summer Camp Counselor, and Swimming Lessons Instructor during high school and in the summers when I was in college. In Chapel Hill, I often babysat for members of the Chapel Hill Mother's Club. I joined Stellar Sitters in Wilmington after I moved there in July of 2007, and have worked with them in the Raleigh area since the fall of 2008. I also volunteered in Grow Zone (the nursery) at Port City Community Church in Wilmington. I have significant experience with school-aged children through the YMCA, and significant experience with babies, toddlers, and school-aged children through babysitting. I regularly care for my niece, who was born April 4, 2011 and has brought so much joy into my life! I really love interacting with children -- there's not a lot in this world that is more special or rewarding than seeing the excitement on a child's face when they accomplish something for the first time or learn something new! Some of my favorite things to do while babysitting are playing pretend and getting to see wild imaginations at work, arts and crafts and playing outside. I can have fun getting dirty and making a mess, but I will make sure that everything is cleaned up as it was when we started. It is my hope to encourage a child to be honest, responsible, respectful and caring, and to do this in a way that your child is entertained, learning and safe. I am glad to help with homework, do crafts, prepare food, and provide transportation. In my free time, I am often at a softball field or in the stands at volleyball games cheering on my niece. I am also an active member of the Junior Women’s League of Smithfield and volunteer for many community organizations. I enjoy cheering on my Tar Heels, photography, outside activities, scuba diving, and traveling! If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me!

Kristine $18 per hour for 1 child

I have provided child care before, during and after graduating from Meredith College, I stayed home and homeschooled my own 2 children who are now 16.5, daughter, and 22, son. My daughter would love to come with me and play and snuggle too. When my children were young, I cared for several single Moms' kids and a couple of other families. As they grew older, I found a data entry job and real estate from home. I miss having time with little ones and would love to provide occasional care for others. I am a former lifeguard and have had my CPR recertified a few times over the years that included infants as well. My daughter and I also provided senior care to my 2 parents for the last 3+ years. I can provide transportation to shops, take out to lunch, provide activities, and accompany them to Dr appointments. I know how hard it is to find people one can trust and would love to help others after being blessed with having found amazing help. References are available!

"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!"
