Hola families! I’m Jenice, an experienced caregiver who has cared for children of all ages, cultures and backgrounds. I have worked in healthcare more than 20yrs. I am bilingual and I love teaching Spanish to young ones. I incorporate Spanish phrases and words in everyday activities with “my kids”. As a bilingual CPR & First Aid Instructor, I bring safety first. Kids love that I am attentive and engaging as I implement fun and learning through reading, games, outdoor play and creative activities.
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.
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!
Hello, my name is Saylor. I'm currently a sophomore located in the Memphis area. I am offering pet services as it is something I'm passionate about. I've grown up loving and taking care of animals my whole life. I've watched a variety of pets, from dogs to cats to birds. I enjoy giving them all my love and attention, ensuring they're taken care of the way you take care of them yourself. Some of my responsibilities have included not just taking care of the animals' necessities but also sticking to their already set schedule while making sure their living area is clean for their owners' return.
“10/10! Saylor is reliable, honest, trustworthy, and dependable. She gave me complete peace of mind while away, taking excellent care of both my home and dog. Everything you could ask for in a house and pet sitter. Highly recommend!”
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!”
