Arielle 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Ari and would love to be of assistance to your family! I have 9+ years of experience in Early Childhood Education as an EHS Director/Teacher. I am also a Certified Nursing Assistant. I am a Teacher for VUMC and currently have evening availability during the week with open availability on the weekends. We are the architects of our little one’s brains and children really do learn through play. I enjoy watching the growth and development that happens through positive interactions/experiences when I am implementing age appropriate activities for children. Please, feel free to reach out with any other questions.

Ari has been an incredible influence on our son’s early development. She was instrumental in helping him potty train at age 2, showing so much patience, encouragement, and care throughout the process. She is warm, attentive, and genuinely loves the children she cares for—you can see it in the special relationship she’s built with him. We trust her wholeheartedly and are so grateful for her. I can’t recommend her enough.

Brooke $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi- My name is Brooke and I am an HR Specialist at a global company. I am offering childcare service for extra income. I have experience sitting for kids since I was 14 years old, who were mainly in the elementary to middle school age range, however I am fine with watching toddlers as well. I used to assist my aunt with toddlers at her in-home daycare. My responsibilities have been summer camp drop off and pick up, crafts, zoo outings, and etc. I have a corgi and a cat, so I am familiar with pets.

Rachel $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Rachel, I’m a Commercial Music graduate from Belmont University. I’m a singer and performer, but I also teach voice to children from a range of 4-22 years old at a studio in Franklin. I love working with children and am looking for a little more variety to my schedule while still doing what I do best! I’ve babysat all throughout high school and college for church peers and my own adorable niece and nephew. I can cook, I am very passionate about keeping a clean space, and I drive a Honda CR-V if needed!

Keren $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi- My name is Keren but I go by Keke and I’m a student at Lipscomb University. I’m originally from DR Congo in Africa but I have been here in Nashville for 5 years now. I speak 4 languages and French being my first language. I always mentioned that because some family may want me to teach their kids French and I would love to do so. Coming from a large family, I will always babysit since I was a young girl, maybe 9 if I can recall. I have had experience since that age and I still continue to show my love for kids until today. I have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids. I also serve in the kids department at my church. My responsibility has included tutoring French since it’s my first language, helping with homework, cooking, painting, crafts and I can accommodate to any needs you want. Besides that I can also cook, clean, run errands, organize your house, meal prep, laundry, Iron, and much more. I grew up with animals and I love animals, but would always ask about your animal behavior so I know what I’m dealing with. Besides that I’m happy to put a smile on your face.
