Leanne took care of 7 kids while the parent went out for NYE for the first time in year. She did it all on 24 hours notice. I'd def. hire her again!

Amy D., Babysitter in Canaan, CT 06018 with 17 years of paid experience

A little bit about me… As a nanny, I have years of experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to preteens. In my previous role as daytime nanny to a busy family of three children, I learned how difficult it can be to manage the varying needs of children in diverse stages of development. I honed the ability to care for each child individually, while paying close attention to the needs of the group. I am also able to do light housework, grocery shopping. I am a fun loving person who is well organized and capable of keeping the house running smoothly as you were away

I’ve been caring for infants and toddlers since I was 13 years old, and now I’m 19 and I have a lot of experience with children of all ages especially because I come from a family filled with little ones! In addition to babysitting for family, I also have references from families I’ve worked with outside of my own. I’m currently working for a wonderful family with 6 children on Mondays, but I’m looking to take on more work during the rest of the week. Feel free to reach out if interested. I also have my own car
