Hi! I am a rising senior at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, studying Spanish and International Affairs. I have several years of experience working with children of different ages and truly enjoy helping them learn and have fun. I began by assisting at a daycare for children ages 3-5, where I developed a strong appreciation for their curiosity and energy. I've also cared for neighborhood children ages 5-8 and spent last summer volunteering at a summer camp at the Children's Cancer Center in Tampa, working with kids ages 5-12. I'm an active and outgoing person who grew up playing soccer and competing in gymnastics, so I love planning engaging, energetic activities. I'm also organized, responsible, and have strong time management skills. Overall, I love meeting new kids and creating a safe, fun, and positive environment for them.
Hi! My name is Christina and I’m a MBA student at Middle Tennessee State University, studying data science. I also have experience working with children. I used to babysit through SittingMadeSimple and helped out a family with an autistic child and loved watching videos and playing outdoors with him. I also volunteered at the Discovery Center and would help them with arts and craft and teach them about important figures in history. Before that, I looked after my younger brothers by taking them to and from school activities and making sure they were eating healthy meals. I enjoy working with children and want to help families in any way I can. I hope to connect with you soon!
“Christina was fantastic with our baby girl—engaged, cheerful, and genuinely helpful!”
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.”
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.
i love animals and kids, both are so fun to be around and i do wanna learn more on taking care of kids too, im only 18 and live with my parents, i do have a car so there's no worry on transportation, im working another job and my scheduling is random in it but im looking for some extra money on the side for my future too, i have alot of free time majority of the time and wanna take some of it up by helping others out!
