I’m a warm, patient, and dependable caregiver who genuinely loves working with kids! I’ve been caring for children since high school, when I regularly babysat for local families, and I continued babysitting periodically throughout college and graduate school. More recently, my clinical training and professional work in Clinical Psychology have involved working with children and families consistently, giving me extensive experience understanding children’s developmental, emotional, behavioral, and mental health needs.I believe kids need a balance of structure and plenty of opportunities for play, creativity, curiosity, and fun. I love getting down on the floor to play, doing crafts, reading, exploring outside, or creating activities around a child’s interests. I’m also happy to help with homework and routines and enjoy helping kids build confidence and independence.I’m naturally organized and especially good at creating systems that keep things running smoothly. I’m happy to help with children’s laundry, tidying and organizing toys and play spaces, dishes, meal prep, and other household tasks that make family life easier. I’m proactive, detail-oriented, and notice what needs to be done without always needing to be asked.My clinical experience has also taught me to be exceptionally patient, calm, and flexible. I understand that children’s behavior is communication and approach challenging moments with empathy, consistency, and age-appropriate boundaries.

Hello parents!My name is Grace, and I’m a sophomore at Belmont University. I love cooking, baking, and anything artsy, and I’m also the oldest of three siblings.Along with babysitting my sisters, I spent summers in Brooklyn helping my aunt, who worked as a daycare nurse, caring for kids of all ages. Here in Nashville, I’ve enjoyed reading to elementary school classes and face painting for kids at community events through local nonprofits I work with.Through these experiences, I’ve become a snack expert, nap-time pro, storytime favorite, and pretty good at keeping little ones happily occupied (and away from drawing on the walls 😅).For parents who may need a hand beyond babysitting, I’m also happy to help with errands or driving — I have a clean record and my own 2021 Toyota RAV4 mini-SUV here in Nashville.I’d love the chance to get to know your family!

Hello! I am Erica, a sophomore in college studying English and Business Management, and I’ve spent years working with children through summer camps, youth nonprofits, and babysitting. I’ve cared for kiddos from 7 months to 14 years old, so I’m just as comfortable with bottles and bedtime routines as I am with homework help and keeping older kids entertained. I’m big on creating a fun, safe, and positive environment. Whether that means crafts, games, outdoor time, or just making sure your child feels heard and cared for. I’m also CPR/First Aid certified, trained in Mental Health First Aid, and a mandated reporter in both Illinois and Florida, so your child’s safety and wellbeing are always my top priority. Parents would describe me as reliable, patient, and easy to communicate with and kids usually just say I'm relatable. Thank you for taking the time to read this, I’d love to be a helping hand for your family!
