Meet Molly

  • Comfortable with pets

My name is Molly, and I'm currently residing in Middletown, CT. I'm 30 years old, a college graduate, and an experienced childcare provider (on-and-off positions for 12+ years). I've been a babysitter and/or FT nanny for children of different age groups both in Connecticut and in New York, and have had great experiences with a range of kids. My most recent, most committed child care experience was a family with a boy, whom I watched almost full-time from age 4-6, and his baby sister, whom I nannied either full-time, or at least 30 hrs/wk (it varied) --- from the age of 5 months to 1. 5 years old. I have the skills and stamina of a fun, quality caregiver, and avoid just propping children in front of the television. I'm artsy and have always loved making things, and I find that this translates well into babysitting because I enjoy doing Read more little projects with kids and helping them create stories and narratives. I am also an avid reader and writer; I love to read to kids and help with homework. On a practical note, I have a car, so transportation is no problem and have experience driving kids to activities and/or to/from school. Basically--- I am naturally a good babysitter-- it's just true. I find kids to be great fun and, accordingly, I treat them like the people they are-- and I respect their sensitivities. As I indicated above, I insist on reading over TV (depending on house rules of course), love to play make believe (I'm a writer, so it comes naturally)... I'm a creative, and so are most children by nature. If this childcare philosophy sounds appropriate for your childcare needs, I'd love to hear from you, and am available to start immediately. Summer positions are fine, as are jobs that would expand beyond the summer. NOTE: I begin graduate school in the fall, but it is an online program and would not interfere with my schedule (I've succeeded in the past doing both childcare and university.)
