Booked by 39 families in Brighton, TN

Hi! My name is Toshiana or Tasha for short as most people call me. I am 33 years old and a mother to a 13 year old little boy. I have been caring for children for 10+ years and currently care for children. I was a nanny for a family Monday-Friday in 2017 and I worked for them over a year. I also have experience working at a daycare(8months) and at a church nursery so multiples are not a problem. I am a frequent sitter for families in Memphis and surrounding areas. I love my job as a sitter because I've always had a love for children and always knew I wanted to be in some type of field where I got to work with children whether it be a pediatrician or psychologist etc. My ultimate goal is to open my own childcare center or just be a caregiver full time.

I am a retired school administrative assistant. Over many years, I have worked with children of all ages in the school system and caring for them in my home childcare business. I keep the children busy with hands-on learning, singing, dancing, age-appropriate books, DVD's and videos along with arts and crafts. I have also worked many years as a care-giver/CNA in private homes and in nursing home facilities. I am First Aid/CPR certified for infants, children and adults. Also, being a former residential cleaning business owner, I have many years of experience in cleaning vacant and occupied properties and doing trash-outs.

Booked by 1 family in Brighton, TN

Hi! My name is Lara, and I’m a caring, patient, and dependable caregiver with over 8 years of experience working with children. As a mom of a 14-year-old daughter and a 9-year-old son, I truly understand how important it is to provide a safe, loving, and supportive environment where kids feel comfortable and happy. I have a background in education with a Bachelor’s degree in English Literature, and I’ve spent the past several years working in an elementary school in Germantown, TN, supporting students as a substitute teacher and attendance secretary. This experience has given me strong skills in understanding children’s needs both academically and emotionally. I love engaging kids in fun and creative activities like painting, crafts, and storytelling, and I’m always happy to help with homework and learning when needed. I’m CPR certified, highly organized, and fluent in both English and Arabic. I treat every child with kindness, patience, and respect, and I always aim to build a strong, trusting connection with both children and their families. I would love the opportunity to support your family and be a positive part of your child’s day!

Booked by 2 families in Brighton, TN

Hey ! I’m Sunshine and I am 19 years old. I currently work at an aftercare/preschool center, but I have been babysitting for years now. I love working with kids and typically work better with older age groups! I am also open to pet sitting, dogs or cats, and house sitting! I have done pet sitting and house sitting off and on for the past couple years as well :) I also did first aid and CPR training classes a couple years ago! I wanted to add to be more clear with my schedule; I am open any weekend, but I am only available past 6pm on weekdays.

“I booked with Sunshine for drop-in pet sitter services while I was out of town. She was very friendly, courteous and easy to work with! She was absolutely wonderful with my pets - a dog and cats - and took great care of them. I would highly recommend Sunshine and will book with her again!”
