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!
I'm a smart young lady with pleasant personality, a mother of 3 kids. I hold a master's degrees in Biology and currently working in the health industry. I have a proven track record of child care over the years as seen in the character of my kids. I have served in daycare centers and kids department in church, where l have interacted with kids from as little as 3 months and older. I would be super excited to work with you and offer a phenomenal experience that your kids will enjoy.
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!
Hello there! My name is Rebecca but my little buddies know me best as Ms Becca :)! I am 36 years old and have worked professionally with children since I was 19 years old. I absolutely love kids especially the first 5 years of age! I graduated with a degree in Child Development from CSU Sacramento in 2010. I have been a preschool teacher for many years and am currently subbing when needed :)! I have been babysitting since I was 16 and have mostly worked in morning/after school programs, preschools and day cares. I also did an internship in Germany working with small children on an American military base. I am CPR/First aid certified. I take the safety of your child very seriously and will always have that as my main priority. I love clear communication so expect me to give you a heads up if I am running even a couple minutes late. I will also try to give you a heads up in great advance if I need to cancel- I rarely do! Usually only emergencies or sudden illness. I try to take pictures/videos to send to parents while I’m with your child so you know what we’re up to :)! A little about me: I love going to the beach and being outside! I am very family oriented, I love my friends, going to concerts, going on adventures like hiking waterfalls and traveling to all sorts of new places! I love being outside so when I babysit and it’s a nice day- if you are comfortable with it I will take your kiddos on adventures around town to different parks, splash pads, etc! On days when staying inside is a better choice, there are plenty of activities we can think of to do! I’m a huge music fan and love the Beatles the most! When I babysit, I typically like to bring along my instruments for all my little friends to play (ukulele, harmonica, etc). I love to sing songs and do interactive songs like “We are the Dinosaurs” or “slippery fish.” I’m not a huge fan of screens- I don’t even have internet at my house haha! I try to be as engaging as possible- I realize, however, there are those times kiddos just want to watch a movie on a Friday night haha I don’t mind either way! Just know I’m ready to play when I walk in the door :) I love animals so pets don’t bother me at all! I can FaceTime you no problem if you’d like to meet before meeting in person! Feel free to ask me details of rates. I babysit, overnight sit, pet sit, and house sit! Thank you and hope to meet sometime :)!
“Actually amazing. Hire her! She brought musical instruments and sang and danced with my kids. They loved her!”
My name is Roslyn, and I go by Roz for short. I have over 12 years of experience in childcare and hold a Child Development Associate (CDA) certification in Early Childhood Education. I currently provide nurturing childcare services that include age-appropriate learning activities, creative play, music and arts enrichment, storytelling, homework help, and tutoring support in a safe and encouraging environment. I also teach Spanish to toddlers and pre-K students with O’Neil Language Academy, where I introduce early language skills through songs, movement, and interactive lessons designed to keep young learners engaged. In addition, I offer tutoring services for children who need extra academic support, focusing on building confidence and foundational skills at their own pace. Outside of childcare and education, I am a freelance musician based in Nashville. I play saxophone and sing, and I enjoy incorporating music into learning whenever appropriate. My hobbies include baking, dancing, and learning new languages. I speak a little Spanish and am always eager to continue learning. I am creative, active, and truly enjoy teaching children while learning from them in return.
