Hello. My name is Jordan and I’m 22. I have two siblings aged 18 and 11. I have experience babysitting children from the age of 4 months to 12 years old.I also have experience babysitting children with special needs. I’m also very experienced with having more than one little one running around. I have had groups of up to 6 in my private sitting experience. As well as my private experience I also formerly worked as an After School Counselor for the YMCA and as an After School Teacher at Thales Academy (Private school). I’m also a very experienced pet sitter so if you have furry friends I’m all about it too. These are the basics and I’d love to chat with anyone who may have questions!

Jordan was so kind and friendly with our baby girl. We booked with her twice and both times she arrived early and was respectful of our home. We especially appreciated her responsiveness during the booking process and her ability to communicate with us when we had questions or wanted to check on our little girl!

Hi! My name is Sydney and I’m looking for a nanny job. I love to spend time outdoors and plan activities with for the kids I nanny. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I’m currently taking time off from UNC as a psychology major but plan on going back.

Sydney did a great job watching after my fur babies while I was on vacation!

40/M/Apex - I grew up with a Golden Retriever named Fenway, a Vizsla named Punkin, and now I have a 4 year old, 6lb Yorkie named Mosby. I have successfully watched a French Bulldog on a few occasions and have been referred to as the BryMCA...so there's that.
