Reliable Babysitter with Teaching Experience

Hi, my name is Emily! I’m an Early Childhood Education major at UTC, and I’ve always loved working with kids. I grew up helping with my two younger brothers and started volunteering in my church’s childcare program at 13. From there, I continued gaining experience as a teacher’s assistant in elementary and middle school classrooms through my Teaching as a Profession program in high school.

Families describe me as patient, fun, and dependable. I enjoy creating a safe and positive environment for kids, whether that’s helping with homework, playing games, or just being a kind and responsible role model. I look forward to meeting your family and caring for your little ones!

Hi, my name is Emily, and I am currently an Early Childhood Education major at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.

From ages 15–18, I gained additional experience as a teacher’s assistant in elementary and middle school classrooms through my Teaching as a Profession class, assisting students daily from 8–10 AM, Monday through Friday. These opportunities have helped me develop patience, responsibility, and a love for working with children of all ages.

Hello, my name is Laura, and I am a dedicated childcare professional with a strong background in early childhood education. I have completed three years of Elementary Education studies at Lynn University in Florida and am currently taking a semester off after relocating to Lawton for family reasons.

Fluent in English, Spanish, and Portuguese, I also have experience tutoring children in both English and Spanish. My goal as a nanny is to be a positive influence creating a safe, fun, and educational environment where children thrive. I am CPR and First Aid certified.
