Hi there! If you’re looking for a reliable, experienced sitter with an open schedule for infant care, I’d love to connect. I focus on caring for babies and am available anytime—daytime, evenings, or weekends. I pride myself on being incredibly punctual, highly communicative, and strict about following your specific routine (feedings, naps, bedtime, etc.). I’m perfect for parents who work from home and need a few hours of focused care, families needing backup help during the week, or date nights. Let me know how I can help!

Cameron $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Cameron and I am an incoming freshman at UNC Charlotte! I am offering child care services. I have worked as a babysitter for two separate families throughout my high school years where I watched an infant, toddler, and kids. My responsibilities were to change diapers, play games, put them to bed, and I also gave lessons on how to ride a bike. I am also equipped with first aid, CPR, and AED certifications for safety in the event of an emergency. I mostly have experience in child care but i’m happy to work with families with pets!

Hi! I’m Vanessa, a mom and experienced healthcare professional who genuinely enjoys spending time with children and helping families feel confident that their little ones are in caring, capable hands. As a mom myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your child. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and safety-conscious, while still making sure kids have fun and feel comfortable with me. Professionally, I’m a registered nurse with extensive healthcare experience. My background has taught me to stay calm under pressure, communicate clearly, pay close attention to a child’s needs, and take safety seriously. I’m especially comfortable caring for babies and young children and understand the routines that come with them—from bottles, meals, diapers, naps, and bedtime to playtime and keeping little ones engaged. A Little More About Me • Mom with firsthand infant and child-care experience • Registered nurse and board-certified nurse practitioner • Patient, nurturing, responsible, and dependable • Comfortable with infants and young children • Attentive to parents’ routines and preferences • Comfortable with feeding, diapering, naps, bedtime, and age-appropriate play • Calm and confident in unexpected situations • Non-smoker I know that inviting someone into your home to care for your child is a big decision. My goal is to make things easier for parents while providing the same kind of attentive, thoughtful care I would want for my own family. I’d love to learn more about your family and what you’re looking for in a caregiver!

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.

Booked by 4 families in Rock Hill, SC

Hello and welcome to my profile! I am a responsible, caring and dependable professional who enjoys helping families make life a little easier. With 20 years experience caring for children, pets, and aging family members I've learned; Children keep me young and grounded, pets keep me active and seniors keep me appreciative of life's journey. Communication and transparency are important to me and I take pride in creating a safe, comfortable environment where everyone feels well cared for and at ease. I am currently open to occasional roles 1-2 days per week and for new/first time families, I am open to interviews ahead of booking, prefer to at least have a phone call ahead of first visit and only accept payments via car and then after time, happy to transition to other forms. Looking forward to meeting you and your family!

“Alexis was prompt in reaching out we connected before the booking. She was a good communicator came on time and did the duties as assigned. Very pleasant and punctual”
