Sara C., Babysitter in Ellington, CT 06029 with 2 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Sara Coughlin and I am a full time college student from western mass! I am 21 years old and I graduated class of 2021 from my local high school, and am in university but am home for the summers. I have always been good with and genuinely loved being with kids, and have babysat and helped with kids of all ages since I was younger helping out in Child Watch at the YMCA. I have been certified for babysitting by the American Red Cross for years. I love kids as I have always had little cousins and work with kids a lot, I love animals, and helping people, and am very outgoing, caring, and adventurous, which is why babysitting is such a perfect fit for me for a part time job whenever I can! I have been a kids camp unit director and counselor in the summers and it is the best part of my summer days, I couldn’t this summer due to minor scheduling conflicts but will miss it so much this summer! I have experience and love working with any ages. I have experience with casual sitting, date nights, bedtime routines, wedding sitter/help, and much more and I love it all! Please reach out I’m happy to discuss and see if I can help in any way!

Julia M., Babysitter in Ellington, CT 06029 with 3 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Julia and I'm a recent college grad with a degree in Biochemistry. I'm currently in my gap year before Dental School and looking to help out some families! I have lots of caretaking experience with children and individuals with special needs, particularly those with intellectual and developmental disabilities through my work with the Mental Health Association. I have babysat before for families while in college, and it was such a fun and rewarding experience for everyone involved. I have also worked at a summer camp before with children from 5-13 as an educator. Currently I work as a tutor, so I'd love to help your kids with their homework and challenge the way they think. I've spent almost three years working in group homes for those with intellectual and developmental disabilities, and have been through training to handle complex physical and emotional behaviors from the clients. A staple of this position was also meal prep with very strict guidelines, and my residents were always happy to see that I was the one cooking that day. Daily chores were an expectation, and you can expect the same! I am a very artistic individual, and can be found crocheting and painting in my free time, so craft time is a given with me. If you're looking for someone who can accommodate to your family, while also being a responsibly fun and engaging presence, that's me!
