Cara is amazing! She interviewed me as much as I interviewed her. Cara really wanted to make certain, as did I, that she would be the best fit for my son and my family. What is so special about Cara is that she truly cares - last week she brought over pictures she developed from her time with my son over Spring Break. I mean, who goes to that trouble anymore? Cara does. She is a gem and your family would be very fortunate to have Cara as your next babysitter.

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.

Nisha S., Babysitter in Stratford, CT 06614 with 6 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Nisha, and I absolutely love working with children! I have several years of experience caring for and working with kids of all ages, and I genuinely enjoy creating a fun, safe, and positive environment where children can feel comfortable being themselves. For 6 years, I taught karate and self-defense to children of all ages, which gave me extensive experience working with kids individually as well as managing groups. Teaching has taught me how to communicate with children at different developmental stages, keep them engaged and interested, establish appropriate boundaries, and handle different personalities and energy levels with patience and understanding. I especially love watching kids gain confidence as they learn something new! In addition to teaching, I have 2 years of babysitting experience, including caring for children individually and supervising groups of children. I’m comfortable keeping kids entertained through age-appropriate activities, helping with routines and homework, preparing simple meals and snacks, and making sure children are safe, happy, and well cared for. I also understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can trust and communicate openly with. I have a Master’s degree in Industrial-Organizational Psychology from Sacred Heart University, where I graduated with my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology in 2023 and my Master’s degree in 2024. My education has given me a strong understanding of child development, behavior, communication, and individual differences, which I find incredibly valuable when working with children. I was previously CPR certified and am currently in the process of renewing my certification. Most importantly, I truly enjoy spending time with kids. Whether we’re playing, doing crafts, going outside, working on homework, learning something new, or simply having fun together, I want children to feel safe, supported, and excited to spend time with me. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and become someone you feel completely comfortable trusting with your children! ❤️

Nancy H., Babysitter in Stratford, CT 06614 with 6 years of paid experience

I have worked in the medical field for 18 years . I’ve changed my career recently to caring for and nurturing babies and children. I have been a Nanny for three years to infants, toddlers and pre-teens. I have cared for my now 3 year old grandson since birth part time as well. I have two grown children. There is nothing more rewarding than giving babies and children love and teaching them through play and creative activities. I’m also a portrait artist, I love being creative and giving children of every age the opportunity to discover and learn and to help instill confidence at a young age. I worked at Newtown High School for five years as a secretary before entering the medical field as a CMA. I also was the CMA at the Birth Center in Danbury for eight years. I am extremely responsible and organized and have a high energy level. I hope to hear from you! Thank you,, Nancy
