Leanne R., Babysitter in Canterbury, CT 06331 with 40 years of paid experience

I believe in the power of nature as a tool for education and love to spend time exploring outdoors, getting messy, and encouraging growth through play. My 40 years of experience include potty training, establishing sleep routines, and encouraging healthy relationships with food. I would describe my personality as silly & energetic and my caregiving style as responsive & respectful. I am kind, patient, and extremely reliable. I am seeking a long term position with 30 or more guaranteed hours that will begin in the fall of 2023. I am a Rhode Island native who now resides across the RI/CT border, and I am open to traveling approx. 20 miles . I am covid vaccinated, with a clean driving record and no criminal background. Prior to nannying, I ran a licensed home daycare in the State of Rhode Island. I have a lifetime of experience to share with you.

Loryn C., Babysitter in Canterbury, CT 06331 with 5 years of paid experience

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!

I'm currently a paraprofessional at a CT high school, so I'll be available this summer and eager to work part time. I have 6 years of experience caring for children, including working as a party hostess, watching family members' kids, serving as a kiddie camp director, and my current role in education. I also have extensive experience with animals. Having worked at an animal sanctuary and a veterinary clinic, I'm happy to care for your pets too.
