Kiara P., Babysitter in Somers, CT 06071 with 5 years of paid experience

Hi! I’m a caring and reliable nanny with over 5 years of paid experience working with children from infants to preschool age. I’ve spent years in childcare center, and I’m currently in school pursuing my degree in Early Childhood Development, so I love bringing both hands-on experience and what I’m learning into my work. I’m all about creating a warm, safe, and fun environment where kids can learn, play, and just be themselves. Whether it’s helping with routines, planning little activities, or just being a supportive, positive presence, I truly enjoy what I do and love building strong connections with the families I work with.❤️

We adore Kiara! She is kind, thoughtful and fun. My 10-year-old always has the best time with her and requests that I go out just so they can play :) I trust Kiara completely. She has taken time to get to know my son and his interests -- they play chess, battle with Anime figures and make up stories to act out. I would recommend Kiara 100 percent!

Sara C., Babysitter in Somers, CT 06071 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!

I really appreciate Kristin's flexibility with my schedule. This was my son's first time at a sitter that wasn't a family member. We are new to the state so it was important to find someone we both felt comfortable with. My son really enjoyed her kids and I would think to thank them for entertaining him. I would definitely use her again and recommend if you need a reliable sitter.

Lindsey nannied for our two boys, then 6 months and 2.5 years. She started with us following my return from maternity leave and in a very difficult post-pandemic era, during which my 2.5 year old struggled with transitions. She handled many a tantrum with grace and patience, with a smile on her face, and helped us navigate potty-training. She is flexible and accommodating, and leaves the house sparkling clean. She goes above and beyond - including by spending her free time researching behavioral development guidance for toddlers and ways to get picky eaters to ingest more calories. We are really going to miss her and her sweet baby boy. She is a true professional and any family would be lucky to have her!

Olivia  R., Babysitter in Somers, CT 06071 with 9 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Olivia. I am 22 years old. I nannied a little girl full-time for a year, starting when she was 4 months. I have also been formally babysitting since I was 13, although I have always loved playing with kids and helping out in things like my church nursery. With my past babysitting jobs I have done things like taking the kids outside, playing hide-and-seek and tag, drawing with chalk, building legos, reading books, and playing imaginary games with them. I have briefly been a nanny for a 7 year old girl and an informal nanny for many different families over the years. I also most recently worked as the after-school coordinator for a classical Christian school. My dream is to someday be a stay-at-home mom, so doing housework is a passion of mine. In the midst of babysitting, I always try to keep the environment clean and leave it neater than I found it. I am a Christian and as a result I try to always be honest and caring as I seek to glorify and honor my Savior. I'm excited to work with you!

Maria fernanda  C., Babysitter in Somers, CT 06071 with 2 years of paid experience

I am an experienced nanny and a mother of three—now grown and established professionals with strong values, who are my greatest pride. To me, children are the joy of the world and our future; they deserve an environment filled with love. My approach is grounded in patience and the conviction that every child deserves to be guided by sound principles, values, and emotional well-being. I am constantly vigilant regarding potential safety risks and strive to create a secure environment for the children while they play, designing activities that foster their learning. I am seeking a family to whom I can offer not merely supervision as a nanny, but also a positive influence on their daily routines—one that helps them grow into healthy, kind-hearted adults. Regarding my professional background, I offer a blend of life experience and specialized training in childcare: I have two years of experience as a professional nanny, having cared for a lovely baby girl until she turned two, at which point I relocated to another state. I speak Spanish and am a skilled cook specializing in nutritious meals (on occasion, I even involve the children in food preparation in the kitchen as a fun and safe activity!). I also enjoy organizing outdoor activities to ensure the children have opportunities to connect with nature. Furthermore, I am a safe and prudent driver. I look forward to the opportunity to become a valuable source of support in your home.

Maria has been caring for our two-year-old daughter since June 2026, and she has been absolutely wonderful. She is reliable, punctual, kind, and genuinely caring. She creates fun, age-appropriate activities that support our daughter's learning and development while always keeping her safe and engaged. Maria also prepares snacks, keeps the play areas tidy, and has been very respectful of our family's routines and parenting preferences. As a native Spanish speaker, she naturally incorporates Spanish into her interactions with our daughter, which has been an added bonus. Most importantly, our daughter adores Maria and is always excited to see her. We have complete confidence in her and highly recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy, nurturing, and dedicated nanny.

Geri T., Babysitter in Somers, CT 06071 with 9 years of paid experience

Greetings, Parents! After graduating from high school, I began my career as a professional nanny, caring for children in two families. My first nanny position involved caring for a five year old girl named Shana, who had cerebral palsy and used a wheelchair. Because of her individual needs, I received specialized training and developed a strong understanding of patience, attentiveness, safety, and personalized care. For Shana’s sixth birthday, I even dressed as a clown to help make her celebration special. She was not always comfortable around unfamiliar people, so I wanted to create a fun experience that would bring a smile to her face. My second nanny position began when T.J. was five months old. Later, the family welcomed a baby girl named Alissa, and I had the privilege of caring for her beginning when she was only two days old. During my employment, I also relocated with the family to St. Louis, Missouri. This position gave me professional and extensive hands on experience with infant care, feeding, comforting, developmental stages, daily routines, and maintaining a safe, organized home environment. After working as a nanny for several years, I moved into a management position in the banquet industry. I later became a mother myself. Throughout my professional career, I have also worked in customer service for the State of Connecticut and for a private utility company. These positions strengthened my communication, organization, problem solving, and customer service skills. My years as a professional nanny taught me so much about childcare, household routines, responsibility, and creating a safe and nurturing environment. When I became a parent, I felt confident and well prepared because of the experience I had gained caring for children through many stages of development. I am certified in CPR and First Aid through the American Red Cross. For additional peace of mind, I have also completed an extensive background check and can provide verification to prospective families upon request. Today, I bring patience, care, organization, professionalism, and a genuine love for children into every family’s home. I especially enjoy creating fun and meaningful experiences through cooking, scavenger hunts, arts and crafts, and other hands on activities that encourage learning through play and help children create lasting memories.
