Booked by 1 family in Richland, MS

Hello! My name is Allie, and I am a dependable and nurturing childcare provider with over 10 years of babysitting experience! I have a degree in Psychology and Applied Dance from UNC Charlotte and minor in education. I have a strong passion for early childhood development, and I enjoy helping children learn, grow, and feel secure through each stage of development. I work at Ballet Magnificat! during the day and love to babysit on weekend or in the evenings. My husband is a special education teacher and we both love to tutor and work with kiddos! As a faith-based caregiver, I strive to model kindness, patience, and integrity in all that I do. I believe children thrive best in an environment where they feel loved, encouraged, and respected, with firm structure and boundaries to support them. I am experienced with all ages, I work with infants at my church’s nursery and have worked with high schoolers as well. I am comfortable supporting daily routines such as meals, naps, playtime, homework, and bedtime :) I look forward to meeting you and your family!

Allie is wonderful! So kind, attentive, and responsible! The kids love her!

Hi, my name is Sharick. I am 27 years old and I currently work as a nanny in the United States, caring for children during the week. I have several years of childcare experience, both in my home country and here. I adapt easily to different routines, ages, and family needs. I have experience with babies and young children, and I can care for up to three children at the same time while keeping a safe, calm, and organized environment. I provide loving and responsible care, helping with feeding, sleep routines, hygiene, and age-appropriate activities. I have training in first aid, swimming and water safety, and childcare, which helps me stay calm and act correctly in any situation. The safety and well-being of children are always my priority. I am reliable, patient, and very committed to my work. I enjoy creating a positive and safe environment for children and giving parents peace of mind, especially during trips or overnight schedules. I am happy to follow instructions and adapt to each family’s needs. I would love the opportunity to care for your little ones with dedication and responsibility. I will be attentive to your response and would be happy to answer any questions.
