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.

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.

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

I have been running apartment buildings for the last 30 years. Besides dealing with buildings, I have had to deal with the residents cleaning people, contractors health aides, etc.. Some of which can be less than desirable to have on property. Alice was one of those rare caretakers who I felt lucky to have caring for a 94 year old resident of the 26 unit apartment building I was working at. Other residents of the 7 story building, including our 101 and 102 year old residents, were always happy when Alice was on site. They trusted her and felt safe when she was around. They enjoyed her company and looked forward to seeing her. As I got to know Alice, I fully understood why she was so highly regarded. Integrity, honesty, and her ability to not just listen, but to hear what people where telling her. Then respond to their needs in a compassionate, caring manner. Food shopping, doctors appointments, just getting a senior out in the fresh air etc. It was obvious her presence was greatly valued by the lives she touched. I could go on and on about what a stand out caretaker she was. Sometimes though, less is actually more. Alice is quite simply exceptional. That says it all.

Natalia has been so amazing. She has been watching my son for almost a year. For my son and I, we have a schedule that some times calls for last minute arrangements, she has been amazing accommodating us. I love having Mya, her daughter, there too so that my son has someone to play with! She feels like a part of the family, a very responsible young woman. High Recommended!
