Booked by 24 families in Ridgetop, TN

Hello there! My name is Rebecca but my little buddies know me best as Ms Becca :)! I am 36 years old and have worked professionally with children since I was 19 years old. I absolutely love kids especially the first 5 years of age! I graduated with a degree in Child Development from CSU Sacramento in 2010. I have been a preschool teacher for many years and am currently subbing when needed :)! I have been babysitting since I was 16 and have mostly worked in morning/after school programs, preschools and day cares. I also did an internship in Germany working with small children on an American military base. I am CPR/First aid certified. I take the safety of your child very seriously and will always have that as my main priority. I love clear communication so expect me to give you a heads up if I am running even a couple minutes late. I will also try to give you a heads up in great advance if I need to cancel- I rarely do! Usually only emergencies or sudden illness. I try to take pictures/videos to send to parents while I’m with your child so you know what we’re up to :)! A little about me: I love going to the beach and being outside! I am very family oriented, I love my friends, going to concerts, going on adventures like hiking waterfalls and traveling to all sorts of new places! I love being outside so when I babysit and it’s a nice day- if you are comfortable with it I will take your kiddos on adventures around town to different parks, splash pads, etc! On days when staying inside is a better choice, there are plenty of activities we can think of to do! I’m a huge music fan and love the Beatles the most! When I babysit, I typically like to bring along my instruments for all my little friends to play (ukulele, harmonica, etc). I love to sing songs and do interactive songs like “We are the Dinosaurs” or “slippery fish.” I’m not a huge fan of screens- I don’t even have internet at my house haha! I try to be as engaging as possible- I realize, however, there are those times kiddos just want to watch a movie on a Friday night haha I don’t mind either way! Just know I’m ready to play when I walk in the door :) I love animals so pets don’t bother me at all! I can FaceTime you no problem if you’d like to meet before meeting in person! Feel free to ask me details of rates. I babysit, overnight sit, pet sit, and house sit! Thank you and hope to meet sometime :)!

Actually amazing. Hire her! She brought musical instruments and sang and danced with my kids. They loved her!

Hi families! My name is Yessidaly, but I go by Yessy. I’m a devoted Christian from Nashville and I currently nanny a precious 9 month old baby boy! I’ve taught at a daycare to the sweetest class of 2-year-olds! I also serve in the kids’ ministry at my church and have been babysitting for friends and family for a little over 2.5 years. Kids will always have a special place in my heart. I would describe myself as nurturing, patient, and reliable, with experience caring for children of all ages. I love doing crafts, singing songs, and using music to create fun and engaging moments. I’m also comfortable with pets and happy to help with light housework like tidying or dishes. As well as adjusting to an ongoing routine if needed. My goal is always to create a safe, joyful environment where children feel loved, cared for, and encouraged to grow. Additional details about me: • Bilingual in English & Spanish 🇺🇸🇲🇽 • CPR trained 🩺 • Experience in both classroom and home settings I’d love the opportunity to connect with families who are looking for someone trustworthy, energetic, and passionate about caring for kids! 💕

Sophia $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I am a rising senior at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, studying Spanish and International Affairs. I have several years of experience working with children of different ages and truly enjoy helping them learn and have fun. I began by assisting at a daycare for children ages 3-5, where I developed a strong appreciation for their curiosity and energy. I've also cared for neighborhood children ages 5-8 and spent last summer volunteering at a summer camp at the Children's Cancer Center in Tampa, working with kids ages 5-12. I'm an active and outgoing person who grew up playing soccer and competing in gymnastics, so I love planning engaging, energetic activities. I'm also organized, responsible, and have strong time management skills. Overall, I love meeting new kids and creating a safe, fun, and positive environment for them.

Arielle 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Ari and would love to be of assistance to your family! I have 9+ years of experience in Early Childhood Education as an EHS Director/Teacher. I am also a Certified Nursing Assistant. I am a Teacher for VUMC and currently have evening availability during the week with open availability on the weekends. We are the architects of our little one’s brains and children really do learn through play. I enjoy watching the growth and development that happens through positive interactions/experiences when I am implementing age appropriate activities for children. Please, feel free to reach out with any other questions.

Ari has been an incredible influence on our son’s early development. She was instrumental in helping him potty train at age 2, showing so much patience, encouragement, and care throughout the process. She is warm, attentive, and genuinely loves the children she cares for—you can see it in the special relationship she’s built with him. We trust her wholeheartedly and are so grateful for her. I can’t recommend her enough.
