Hello! I am Amelia went to Pace University in NYC to obtain my bachelors in Psychology. I'm originally from Nashville, Tennessee where I began nannying, supervising an 18-mo. old for the summer & now I’m back again! I have babysat for about 7 years now & I have the sweetest nieces & nephews (3 under 3) that I love spending time with. I have experience working with kids of all ages, from newborn to 13, and over the last few years, I've mostly worked with infants & toddlers. I love kids of all ages & have a hard time picking a favorite! I also have experience travel nannying with multiple children and am comfortable adapting to new environments. I look forward to meeting you & your family!
“Amelia was wonderful and professional. Highly recommend her and will use her again!”
I’m a trained educator. However, I no longer teach in a traditional setting after the pandemic. I love children. I don’t have any. I’m usually available most weekends and after work. Please don’t hesitate to ask me any questions.
“Raven was wonderful with our kids. She arrived on time and we immediately felt comfortable leaving her with our toddler and infant. We were in town for a wedding and she came two nights. Would definitely use again! ”
I grew up in the south, specifically Northeast Georgia in a small town called Clayton, Ga. I have babysat since I was 13. Furthermore, I am very outdoor driven and I love sports. Additionally, I love watching movies and cooking. In February 2023, I got CPR AED certified for babies, infants, pregnant women, and the elderly. Summer 2023, I babysat in NYC for a couple families. This May, I'm graduated from Sewanee, University of the South with a BS in Psychology! This summer I worked with two families. In August, I was a travel nanny in Martha's Vineyard for a family from Brooklyn.
“Ashley was prompt, communicative and very warm with the children. Will hire again. ”
Hi! My name is Cassidy. I'm 22 and graduated from Vanderbilt in May. I currently work as a research assistant from around 9-5 at Vanderbilt Hospital. In college, I majored in Child Development on the pre-med track. I've babysat since I was 14 years old, and have worked with children ranging from age 1 to 14. I also worked as a camp counselor at a camp for children with cancer and their siblings for 3 summers. I'm outgoing, energetic, caring, and punctual. I'm super excited to begin babysitting again!
Hi! I’m Erin! I have about 8 years of childcare experience and currently work as a Certified Child Life Specialist at Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital. Caring for children has always been my passion, and I love helping kids feel safe, confident, and have fun. I’m patient, dependable, and creative, and I enjoy everything from crafts and imaginative play to outdoor adventures and helping with homework. I’m experienced with children of all ages, including those with medical or developmental needs, and I’m comfortable with meal prep, bedtime routines, transportation, light housekeeping, and pet care. My goal is to create a positive, caring environment where children can thrive and parents can feel completely at ease knowing their family is in good hands.
