Palisades Babysitters

Hi I’m Syd! I recently graduated from UNCC with a B.S in Psychology :) Right now I work as a Bible Club coordinator, and afterschool nanny, but in the past I have worked as a kids art instructor, toddler/preschool assistant teacher, a nanny, and a camp counselor at the Whitewater center! I love cooking, playing board games, enjoying the outdoors, and watching Disney movies! I consider myself very adaptable to whatever your home life may be, and take my responsibility over children and their safety seriously. Can’t wait to have fun with your little ones!

Hello, I’m Naomi! I’m a 27-year-old professional caregiver, proud auntie, and recent Master of Public Administration (MPA) graduate with a Bachelor’s degree in Health Administration and a certification in Project Management. With a background as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), my education and experience have strengthened my understanding of health, safety, organization, and compassionate care. Throughout my life, I’ve always had a natural connection with children. From helping care for little ones in my family and community to being a loving auntie, I’ve found so much joy in creating safe, supportive, and encouraging spaces where children can learn, grow, and be themselves. During this exciting transition after graduation, I’m grateful to continue supporting families and helping provide care where I can. I have years of experience caring for children of all ages, including children with special needs. I enjoy creating meaningful moments through creative play, reading, educational activities, arts and crafts, outdoor adventures, dance parties, and supporting daily routines. My goal is always to make children feel valued, comfortable, and supported while giving parents peace of mind. Outside of caregiving, I enjoy reading, exploring local coffee shops, learning new languages, traveling, volunteering in my community, and spending quality time with family and friends. I’m passionate about lifelong learning, community service, and making a positive impact wherever I go. I understand the trust families place in their caregivers, and I take that responsibility seriously. My priority is to provide a safe, nurturing, and enriching environment where your child feels cared for, encouraged, and inspired. I’d love the opportunity to connect with your family and learn how I can support your childcare needs! Availability: Available all day during holiday periods, with flexible scheduling available.

Hi! My name is Tamia! and I have two years of experience working with children ranging from toddlers to middle schoolers. Whether it’s helping with homework, planning fun and educational activities, or simply being a reliable and warm presence, I love creating a safe and engaging environment for kids to thrive. I also have a strong background in meal prep and cooking, including baking fun treats and making nutritious meals kids love. I’m comfortable with a variety of dietary needs and enjoy involving children in the kitchen when appropriate. In addition, I have experience caring for family pets, so I'm happy to help out with animal care as part of my responsibilities. Organization is another strength of mine—whether it’s keeping play areas tidy or managing after-school schedules. I also have a great driving record and am fully comfortable with school pick-ups, drop-offs, and transportation to extracurricular activities, ensuring your children get to and from their destinations safely. I’m professional, dependable, and truly enjoy supporting families in their day-to-day lives. Looking forward to the opportunity to connect with yours!

Hi! I’m Neveyah, a 22-year-old recent college graduate. I currently spend most of my week working as a medical assistant at a local medspa. I’ve always had a natural love for caring for others. Growing up in a big Southern family, I’ve been surrounded by little cousins my whole life and have been the go-to babysitter for years. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and love creating an environment where they feel safe, comfortable, and free to have fun. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I’m BLS certified and prepared to handle emergencies if they arise. I also have my driver’s license and am happy to assist with transportation when needed. I understand how important it is to have someone you can truly trust with your child. I take that responsibility seriously while still bringing a fun, positive, and caring energy. My goal is for both you and your child to feel comfortable, confident, and well taken care of while you’re away!

Hi! My name is Tamiya Gibbs, and I’m passionate about working with children. As the third oldest of seven siblings, I naturally stepped into a caregiving role early on and discovered how much I enjoy helping kids learn, grow, and feel safe. I’ve been babysitting for over five years and have spent the last two years as a nanny. I also work at a children’s academy, where I care for children of various ages in a structured and nurturing environment. I’m CPR and first aid certified and always prioritize safety, patience, and clear communication. I specialize in caring for infants to 3-year-olds as well as children ages 4 to 7. These are such important stages of development, and I love supporting little ones as they reach milestones, explore their independence, and express their creativity. Whether it’s tummy time, story time, or play-based learning, I bring age-appropriate care and attention to every moment. I love being a sitter because it allows me to build strong, meaningful relationships with both kids and parents. I’m calm, dependable, and genuinely enjoy being a positive part of a child’s day. I look forward to getting to know your family!
