Booked by 1 family in Smyrna, TN

Hi, my name is Karen. I live in Smyrna near Sam Ridley Pkwy. I am seeking to care for a child, senior or animal part time. I do not have children but have taken care of all 3 listed throughout everyday life. Mature, non smoker but I still laugh as much as possible! I am open to errands, pick up/drop off, vet visits. I love all animals (not too sure about snakes though, lol). My German Shepherd, Hope can vouch for me, LOL. She is my 'foster fail'. If any questions, just ask.

Booked by 1 family in Smyrna, TN

Hi! My name is Christina and I’m a MBA student at Middle Tennessee State University, studying data science. I also have experience working with children. I used to babysit through SittingMadeSimple and helped out a family with an autistic child and loved watching videos and playing outdoors with him. I also volunteered at the Discovery Center and would help them with arts and craft and teach them about important figures in history. Before that, I looked after my younger brothers by taking them to and from school activities and making sure they were eating healthy meals. I enjoy working with children and want to help families in any way I can. I hope to connect with you soon!

Christina was fantastic with our baby girl—engaged, cheerful, and genuinely helpful!

$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.
