Ayehiry  P., Babysitter in Oxford, CT 06478 with 2 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Gigi and I am a nursing student at Southern Connecticut State University. My deep love for children initially sparked my desire to pursue a career as a pediatric nurse. The thought of being able to make a positive impact on their lives during their formative years is incredibly rewarding to me. I currently work as a CNA with elders I love my job and I love having the ability to take care of those who are in need. I also speak Spanish & English.

We've had the pleasure of having Tricia as our babysitter for several months now and could not be happier with the level of care and dedication she brings to her role. She is an exceptional babysitter who checks all the boxes for what parents would look for when entrusting their children to someone else's care. Punctuality One of Tricia's standout qualities is her punctuality. She's consistently on time, often arriving a few minutes early to get a sense of any special instructions or needs for the day. Her timely arrivals and departures assure us that we can maintain our own schedules without any added stress. Politeness and Communication Tricia is incredibly polite and easy to communicate with. Her kind demeanor makes her approachable, and it's evident that she listens attentively when we discuss our children's needs or any particular instructions for the day. Moreover, she engages in meaningful conversations with our kids, helping them feel comfortable and heard. Kindness and Care Tricia's kindness shines through in every interaction. She not only looks after our children but genuinely cares for their well-being. Whether it's helping with homework, facilitating creative play, or even dealing with the occasional scraped knee or tantrum, Tricia handles every situation with compassion and a calming presence. Safety Conscious We are particularly impressed with Tricia's commitment to safety. She always ensures that our kids are safe, whether they're in the home, at the park, or participating in any other activities. It's a significant relief knowing our children are in such responsible hands. Final Thoughts Tricia is not just a babysitter; she has become an integral part of our family routine. Her politeness, punctuality, kindness, and commitment to our children's safety make her a standout choice for anyone looking for top-notch childcare. We couldn't be more grateful for her services and highly recommend her to any parent in need of reliable and compassionate childcare. We look forward to many more months (or even years!) of Tricia being a part of our family's life.

Tanny M., Babysitter in Oxford, CT 06478 with 5 years of paid experience

As one of the older siblings in a family of four, my experience caring for others started early, and it’s been at the heart of my life ever since. I’ve always been drawn to working with children. I spent two years as an elementary school teacher, where I gained real-world training in child development and classroom management. Since then, I’ve worked as a private tutor, supporting kids in both academic growth and emotional confidence. I’ve cared for children of various ages, including managing multiple kids at once, and I always strive to create a loving, compassionate, and positive environment where they feel safe, supported, and free to be themselves. My CPR and First Aid certification is up to date, and I’m also a lifelong animal lover, so I’m always happy to care for pets too! I’m fluent in Spanish, which is my first language, and I enjoy bringing fun and good energy to every family I work with. I truly believe in the power of positive thinking and giving my best in everything I do. I look forward to the opportunity to meet your family and provide care you can feel confident about!

Chrysa K., Babysitter in Oxford, CT 06478 with 10 years of paid experience

I am a professional nanny with many years experience with infants, young children and teens. For many years I was a stay at home mom, but now my children are getting older and independent. I have a joyful home that I share which my husband almost 30 years and my son 21 in college, and my daughter 16. I loved being home which my children and aside from my affection for them, I have gained a wealth of knowledge in health and welfare. I am a very responsible loving and conscientious caregiver. The safety of children in my care is most important and essential. I have nurtured babies, feeding, diapering, bathing and all manner of care. I have safely driven children to and from school, activities and outings.I have kept complex household schedules, prepped and cooked delicious and nutritious meals, and cleaned up. I have helped out with pets, run errands, gone grocery shopping, laundry and light house keeping. Actives I enjoy doing with children are all about being physically active outdoors, hiking on trails, exploring nature, playing in creeks and going to the beach, pool, zoo, or just playing at the playground. It’s great fun making couch forts on rainy days and baking cookies. Being creative with crafts and painting works of art for quiet time activities. I try to encourage responsibility in children by having them help clean up their toys and seeing the value in being a good helper. I discourage screens and encourage books. I love reading to children and teaching them about the world. Mostly I strive for FUN! I have a special needs child and I have spent many years in specialized therapies. I have developed a very intuitive and sensitive nature in dealing whith my child’s disability. It has been the center of our lives 24/7. I understand the patience and nuance that is required when working and striving for important developmental milestones. I have completed two parent training courses at The Yale child Study Center, New Haven.

We feel incredibly fortunate to have had such a wonderful nanny caring for our two-year-old and four-year-old. CHRYSA truly went above and beyond every day and always took exceptional care of our children. She was loving, dependable, attentive, and genuinely invested in their happiness and well-being, as well she has a vibrant and delightful sense of fun and humor ! Our children were always safe, well cared for, and happy in her care, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. She became such an important part of our lives, and we would have loved to keep her with our family did not move away for work. We will miss her and highly recommend her .

My name is Leila. I am married and I am 45 years old. I have experience in caring for newborn babies and other stages of the child. My main tasks are giving baths, preparing bottles and food, organizing clothes and the room and playing with the child. 3 years ago I took care of a beautiful 15 year old boy with autism. I currently care for a 19 year old boy with down syndrome part time. Taking care of people is such a generous act for me that I love it.
