Hi families! I bring a unique blend of experience as a school counselor, certified teacher, and dedicated nanny. With over 30 years working with children from early childhood through adolescence, I have a deep understanding of both their developmental needs and emotional well-being. As a school counselor, I specialize in creating safe, nurturing environments where children feel heard, supported, and confident. My teaching background means I'm great at planning engaging, educational activities tailored to each child’s age and interests—whether it’s reading, crafts, or outdoor play. I've also worked as a full-time and part-time nanny, so I'm very familiar with the day-to-day needs of busy families. I’m patient, energetic, and reliable—and I treat every child with the same level of care and respect I would want for my own. I’m CPR/First Aid certified and comfortable with routines, homework help, meal prep, and behavior guidance. I’d love to support your family in a way that works best for you—whether you need occasional care, after-school help, or a consistent, trustworthy sitter. Let’s connect!

I am a mom of two boys. Since I was 12 years old, I have been babysitting. I was a nanny for two families and simply put, I really love children. I have amazing references and would love the opportunity to help care for a young child between the ages of infancy and 5 years old. I was a working parent when my children were young so I can empathize with both working parents and children. I am joyful, patient, loving and kind. I will make your child a priority and engage him/her in fun activities such as reading, being outside, and experimenting in the kitchen. I am CPR/FIRST Aid certified.

Hello! I have enjoyed babysitting, nannying, caregiving, and mothering over the course of most of my life. I began as a teen in my neighborhood and continued caring for children part-time while in college and working other jobs, right up until I had children of my own. My husband and I have raised four children, now adults and have flown the coop. I sincerely miss children! They are such a joy, so funny, curious, authentic, and precious. Because it was always very important to me to remain available and involved, mothering/homemaking was my main job during my children's growing years (for which I have no regrets)! I also have experience with developmentally disabled children, as I formerly worked with Easter Seals and Nolan Services. Now that I'm a young "empty nester," I find myself wanting to be involved with children again. I value a healthy lifestyle, which includes cooking and eating nutritiously, exercising, gardening, spending time with friends, and learning new things. I recently ended a caregiving job with a lady with Parkinson's, but because of an injury respite from physically demanding work became necessary. Presently I care for children on a part-time basis and have room for more part-time childcare. I also have experience caring for animals, including dogs, cats, chickens, and smaller creatures. I'd be honored to come alongside you to help with the most important task of caring for your greatest asset, your children. I am also willing to include light housework, cooking, organizing, caring for plants and animals, assisting with schoolwork, and errands. Sincerely, Catherine

Hi! I'm Geraldy, a caring and dependable nanny with hands-on experience caring for babies and young children. I currently work Monday through Friday as an ASES staff member with the YMCA, where I support children in a safe, structured, and fun environment. I also have experience providing one-on-one infant care, including feeding, diaper changes, nap routines, playtime, and age-appropriate activities. I'm especially comfortable with babies and focus on gentle, attentive care. I'm bilingual and happy to support families in both languages. Right now, I'm looking for occasional or part-time childcare opportunities that fit around my weekday schedule. I love building trusting relationships with families and creating a calm, nurturing space where children feel safe and happy.

Hi everyone! I’m Michela and the second of 5 kids aged 31, 27, 25, 12 (twins). Our family has 3 pets members: two cats and a dog. I’m from Italy and I moved to Windsor in June 2024. I was a teacher in Italy for a year and I had a class of 17 students aged from 2,5yo to 6yo. I started babysitting when I was 16,5yo for two different families and, having a lot of experience with my youngest siblings, I had a lot of skills with newborns too. During the week I have a split schedule so I can be available a couple of hours in the morning and usually after 6:30pm, while during the weekend I don’t work so I’m more flexible! Feel free to text me 😊
