Hey Parents! I’m currently a student at the University of Connecticut and I am looking for a consistent weekly schedule! I’m available all day on Monday, Wednesday and Friday starting in January - May. I would love to discuss my previous experience as a Nanny as well as my extensive experience in childcare. From children ranging 2 months to 12 years old at daycares such as the Brightpath and school settings at the YMCA, I have seen it all! I also have experience with meal prepping/housework. I would love to make your jobs easier while keeping the kids safe and entertained. Please feel free to reach out for an interview to see if we would be a good fit. I look forward to meeting you and your family :)

My name is Loryn, and I absolutely love working with children! This is my 3rd year working as a social worker at an elementary school where I primarily work with preschool through 1st grade! In 2021, I graduated with my Master's degree in social work, specializing in school social work. I completed my graduate internship working with children (K-2 and 6-8) in a school setting. During that time, I gained experience working with students in both special education (i.e. autism, ADHD, social emotional needs) as well as in general education, both in person and remotely. I previously was employed as a lead teacher at an educational daycare. There I worked in multiple classes with students ranging from two to five years in age. Overall, I enjoy working with kids of various ages and am so thankful I get to do what I love. Feel free to message me with any questions you have, and I look forward to becoming a babysitter for you and your child!

Hi Families! My name is Celia and I am a student at UConn perusing a bachelors degree in Speech Language Hearing Sciences and a minor in Psychological Sciences. I am looking to babysit during the week after classes and can start ASAP! I am an experienced babysitter of 4 years and am CPR, AED, First-aid, and Choking certified through Red Cross ( re-certified for the second time May 2025), as I am a lifeguard in the summers. I have experience with infants-middle school ages, and would also be willing to do housework and /or care for pets! I adore children and love getting more experience with them to strengthen my skills for my future career. I am also an auntie at home of 3 year old twins, so I'm definitely missing my kid time when i'm away at school! I can provide references if desired, and I look forward to hearing from you all:)

Hi! My name is Adrianna, I am 32 years old and very interested in your job posting. I am excited to apply for the babysitting position. With a decade of experience in the school system and four years dedicated to working in an autism program, I bring a deep understanding of child development, patience, and a commitment to creating a safe, supportive, and engaging environment for children. Additionally, my CPR certification ensures that I am fully prepared to handle emergencies. Throughout my ten years in education, I have had the privilege of working with children of various ages and developmental stages. My four years in an autism program have given me specialized skills in supporting children with unique needs, fostering communication, and implementing individualized strategies to help them thrive. These experiences have reinforced my ability to provide attentive, compassionate care while maintaining a structured and nurturing atmosphere. I currently live in Norwich, Connecticut and seeking a baby-sitting opportunity for this summer. I speak English fluently and am a non-smoker as well as have a clean driving record. I’d be happy to provide references as well as meet or chat on the phone. Looking forward to hearing from you and I wish you the best of luck with your search!
