Find a last-minute babysitter in Clover, SC

Hi! I’m Nika. Pronounced “Knee-ka.” I’m 25 years old and originally from Tennessee, but I’ve been living in North Carolina since 2022 and absolutely love it here. I’m currently a college student pursuing a degree in Early Childhood Education, with over 50 credit hours completed so far. My goal is to become a teacher one day, but for now, while I’m in college, I’m focused on gaining experience and supporting families through childcare. I come from a very large and family-oriented background with over 20 siblings so I’ve literally been around children my whole life. I’ve always had a natural connection with kids and find so much joy in being part of their growth. Watching them learn, develop new skills, and grow into their personalities is truly rewarding. I have over five years of paid childcare experience across several roles. I started at a daycare as a floater in the infant classrooms, caring for babies aged 3 to 11 months. I handled tasks like bottle prep, feeding, transitioning to solids, tummy time, naps, and diaper changes. In the afternoons, I would help school-aged children (6–8 years old) with homework and tutoring. After moving to NC, I became an assistant teacher at a preparatory academy, working with toddlers (12–16 months) on walking, speech, and fine motor development. I then started as lead toddler teacher (ages 12–23 months) at a preschool before switching with a coworker to lead the pre-K classroom (ages 3–4). I created weekly lesson plans including hands-on activities like learning shapes and colors, storytelling, name writing, and puzzle-solving. I also have experience working with children who have disabilities such as autism and ADHD. I always treat every child equally, but I adjust my approach based on their needs, such as avoiding loud noises for children with sensory sensitivities or creating structured routines for children who need consistency. I was a nanny to a three-year-old boy for over two years. I supported him through major milestones like language development and social-emotional growth. I am now a nanny to a 2 year old, 6 year old, and 9 year old and have been with them for over a year! In my free time, I enjoy painting, reading, writing, dancing, and playing sports like volleyball, tennis, and soccer. I love arts and crafts and believe that learning often looks like messy fun. I’m also big on routines and keeping things tidy after play. While I love to have fun and be creative, safety and supervision always come first.

Hey I’m Annie! After graduating from East Carolina University in 2017, I began working as an EMT for 3 years and also obtained my BLS certification. I then began working in the dental field and am just trying to pick up extra work to do during my off time. I have a lot of community service experience where I served as a mentor to a child, volunteered as a camp counselor for children with special needs, as well as volunteered in an after school program as a tutor. I have babysat for a few families in Charlotte and nannied for 1 year. Working with kids is an absolute joy and I can’t wait to help out families in the area!

I’ve been a nanny for 8 years, during which I’ve had the privilege of caring for children of all ages and abilities, including those with special needs. My background in healthcare, having studied at Carolina College of Health Sciences, has given me a deeper understanding of children’s health and well-being. I’ve also worked in a pharmacy, which enhanced my attention to detail, responsibility, and ability to manage care routines effectively. Throughout my nanny career, I’ve been committed to providing exceptional care, ensuring that children feel safe, supported, and stimulated. I engage children in educational activities, including early language skills like teaching Spanish, reading, and sensory play. I also enjoy planning outdoor outings and ensuring they have a balanced daily routine with meals, naps, and interactive play. My experience working with diverse families and special needs children has allowed me to develop patience, empathy, and strong communication skills. These qualities, combined with my medical background, make me a compassionate and capable caregiver.
