Booked by 1 family in Murfreesboro, TN

I am a 53 year old woman who loves to work with children, seniors and pets. When my children were young, I owned a daycare in my home, for infants, up to school age children. I have raised 2 children of my own, who are both wonderful adults now. For the last 7 months I have been a live in caregiver for an 83 year old, disabled woman. I truly enjoyed caring for this lady, but have moved and looking to watch children again. I have a heart for helping others. In my spare time, I house sit for animals when the pet owners go away, as well as provide dog walking services. I love animals too and would be happy to help in whatever way needed.

Kelley was great with our 3 boys! Would love to hire her again.

Sophia $18 per hour for 1 child

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.

$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.

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.

Desiree $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Desiree, everyone calls me Desi! I’m currently a Stay at home mom to a 1 year old girl. I am offering Childcare, Pet care and Household services. I started my nannying and babysitter career because i was always told i wasn’t able to have kids. So working with kids became a big part of me. I worked as a Montessori teacher and still currently sub there when needed. I have tons of references from families who i have worked for and still currently do. Most my families i have been with for years but im currently branching out because most my kids are in school and afterschool programs but i still help where i can if needed. I have tons of experience pet sitting and house sitting. I grew up with a bunch of animals and i adore them big or small I’m comfortable with them all. Im here for you and your family even if that includes taking the child / animal to the park, activities, meeting with friends or on a walk . The kids and animals i keep are safe and always become my own. I do have a 1 year old that my grandmother keeps. So she will be with her most of the time but my ideal family is if my daughter need to come with me because my grandmother has something to do..your okay with her coming. Thank you so much for taking the time in reading my bio. If you have anymore questions please reach out!
