My name is Cecilia and I am looking to find a part time nanny job! I have a little over 9 years of experience babysitting and nannying children of all ages. Having five little siblings of my own under the age of 12, I prioritize health and safety as well as engaging children in a variety of activities that meet educational and physical needs. I am a highly organized, motivated, patient, and positive person determined to create a fun-loving environment for children. I have had experiences with babies and toddlers such as my siblings and families I have nannied for!
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.
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!
Hi! My name is Tiffany and I'm currently a sophomore at Belmont University. I am offering childcare and household services! My love for being a caretaker has been prevalent since I was a little girl. As my extended family grew. I found myself always playing with the younger kids and letting my aunt or uncle rest for a bit because to me, it was never an obligation, it was something I enjoyed doing and it gave them time to relax. Once I got to a responsible age, I started babysitting and absolutely loved it. To me there is no better job. I especially love working with toddlers 2-5. My responsibilities have included driving the children to and from school, distributing meals for them while keeping their dietary needs in mind, leading and planning indoor and outdoor activities that include art projects, holiday crafts, storytelling, and nature walks. My hobbies include playing guitar and I've been competing in dance competitions for most of my life so Id have no problem giving children dance lessons or guitar lessons. As a house assistant I can cook thanks to my mother who is a chef and taught me most of what I know. I can run errands, clean, and provide you with any sort of advice, feedback, or other assistance needs if wanted. Also note: I am totally comfortable with taking care of any pets as well!
Hi I'm Tess! I am a 24-year-old writer and an artist looking for a part time or flexible job. I grew up in a huge family and have been babysitting and taking care of kids for most of my life. I love kids and have experience with all ages. During Covid when schools were closed, I looked after my 2-year-old nephew while my sister and brother-in-law worked remotely. I helped supplement his learning with crafts, cooking, baking, and outdoor activities. I also helped guide and oversee homeschooling and remote learning for several families I worked for. I love being creative with the kids I care for and having fun with them. I have my own car and am very comfortable cooking, cleaning, and running errands if you need. I am also very comfortable with pets. I grew up with dogs, cats, and horses. I currently have a blind rescue cat named Squid. My parents are both doctors and growing up my siblings and I had the best full-time nanny who became part of our family. My mom told her at the beginning, "Your job is to love my kids when I'm not here." I always thought this was a great way of looking at it. The way I view nannying/babysitting is very simple, I think. I want to help make your life easier. Your kids will be my priority and I will follow whatever rules or structure you want. I'm happy to chat more and answer any questions you may have. Thank you!
