I'm from a small town in Southeastern Ohio, but I've lived in Raleigh, North Carolina for over 10 years now. At age ten I acquired my Red Cross Babysitting certificate and started babysitting younger kids. As a youth, I was on the swim team, studied multiple different disciplines of dance, was always in plays and helping with the local theater, and I delivered newspapers 6 days a week in addition to occasional mowing, raking, and snow shoveling around town and also selling baked goods and homemade crafts at the local farmers market. I have been an American Red Cross certified lifeguard and also a swim instructor for the past thirteen years. I have saved hundreds of lives in my role as a lifeguard. In 2018 I was the Head Lifeguard of Sliding Rock in the Pisgah National Forest(Brevard, NC) and saved lives and was in charge of emergency situations, scheduling, and staffing from Memorial day to Labor day. I am very calm and cognizant in emergency situations and am the kind of nanny that is cautious in regards to safety. I have spent many years gaining the trust of my students that are learning how to swim. I'm very good with the younger children and beginners, especially 2-4 year olds. I was a nanny for a family for all of 2021. I took care of three girls, ages 4, 7, and 11 years old, three days a week from 7am to 6pm. They also had 3 dogs, a cat, a bunny, a leopard gecko, and 16 chickens. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to continue to work for them after they moved over an hour away from me. I am still good friends with the family and go visit them at least twice a year, and occasionally still house and pet sit for them. I love children(so much so that I still don't have my own yet) and I love animals. I am very detail oriented and have a gift for maintaining many small details, as I've also worked in the hospitality industry for over 20 years in addition to my 13+ years in aquatics with 9 of those years in aquatic management. Nannying is rewarding for me and provides me with skills I will use in my future. I'd love to get to know your family and hopefully get to be a small part of your journey of raising your kids, happy and healthy! 😊

Hi, my name is Linda and I have been a nanny for 29 years and have helped many families raise their children, from infants to ten years old. I have four cats and one dog which are treated like our children. I love caring for infants and toddlers. I don’t mind doing some housework and the child’s laundry when taking a nap. I love going for walks and playing at the child’s level, playing dolls or playing with trucks and cars. I even help looking for bugs with one of the little boy I was caring for. I also like going to the pool and parks. I have cared for over 30 children over the years and at all ages. I just finished my last job in March. I have my CPR certification and a clean driving license. If you’re interested in me, please feel free to contact me at your earliest convenience. Thank you, Linda

I’ve spent several years in education and childcare, and I’m especially drawn to the toddler and preschool years, where everything is new, exciting, and full of possibility. My background in teaching has given me a strong understanding of early childhood development, classroom structure, and how to turn everyday moments into meaningful learning experiences. I love planning hands-on activities, encouraging language development, and supporting social-emotional growth through play. I’m always intentional about creating a safe, nurturing environment where children feel confident and cared for. Families describe me as patient, engaging, and calm under pressure. I value open communication with parents and enjoy partnering with families to support their child’s unique personality and needs. I’d love the opportunity to connect and see if I’d be a great fit for your family!

Hi! I'm Nyah, and I'm a reliable, patient, and energetic nanny who believes childhood should be full of laughter, learning, and a little bit of harmless mess (the kind that's easy to clean up!). I love creating fun, engaging days with kids—whether we're building blanket forts, reading the same favorite book for the hundredth time, tackling homework, or heading outside for adventures. I'm happy to help with meals, routines, and keeping things running smoothly while making sure your little ones feel safe, supported, and cared for. I take my responsibilities seriously, but I also believe a good sense of humor makes every day a little brighter. I value open communication with parents and will always treat your children with the same care, kindness, and respect that I'd want for my own family.
