About Kerigan

Experience: 10 yrs

Professional experience: I've been a private nanny for 6 years. I specialize in ages 0-4 and spent the first few years working exclusively with autistic toddlers. I transitioned to infants in 2022 and really found my niche. My care: I enjoy teaching signs for communication before the little ones can talk, and following baby led feeding. I think engaging in interactive play is important to build motor skills, imagination, and confidence. I'm very big on outdoor time and gentle redirection for all ages. As babies turn into toddlers I help manage big emotions. About me: I'm a Tennessee native who moved around the country and settled in Knoxville in 2022 with my husband and menagerie of pets. I have one degree and am working on another online. Dealbreakers: I value transparency. My rates start at 26/hr, I do not work without a W-2, a contract, and I do not work with families who spank.

We’ve had Kerigan babysit for us a few times for date nights, and she has been wonderful with our kids. She’s incredibly kind, patient, and genuinely fun, and our kids absolutely adore her. They ask all the time when she’s coming back to babysit, which says everything. My daughter had a tough experience with a previous sitter and I was really nervous about having someone new watch her. Somehow she warmed up to her almost immediately, which meant so much to us as parents. It was clear right away that she has a very natural, caring way with kids. It’s such a relief being able to go out knowing our kids feel comfortable, happy, and excited when she comes over. We’re so grateful to have Kerigan and would highly recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy and wonderful babysitter.
