Find local babysitters in Ashland, MA

I am available for occasional infant and childcare. I have recent infant care experience. My previous work includes teaching arts and cooking to elementary school children.

I have been babysitting, nannying, and pet-sitting for about 12 years now. I have experience caring for children ages 1 month - 15 years, with and without learning and behavioral disabilities such as speech delays, autism, and anxiety. Throughout middle school and high school, I would babysit a few days a week including weekends and regularly over the summer. While attending college, I babysat each month I returned home for breaks as well as regularly over the summer. After graduating from college I was working as a full-time teacher/residential aide at the New England Center for Children with adolescent boys who have severe Autism. In 2022, I moved to Charleston, SC and taught 4th-6th grade at a Montessori school. I currently live in Waltham, MA and I am in grad school to be a School Psychologist! I personally like to be as active as possible when babysitting, to not only keep the kids busy but to also maximize my time with them. I like to be outside and do outdoor activities the most, but when inside I like to play games or do arts and crafts. Art is a personal outlet for me so I like to spread my love for it to children as I know they typically enjoy it as well. I can babysit up to three kids but I believe I can work best when babysitting 1-2.

Hello! My name is Emily Gorman and I am 23 years old and live in Manchester NH. I have been a babysitter since I was 13 years old and have enjoyed getting to care for so many kids. I have experience with children ages 1 month-13 years old. Currently I am in my second year as a special education teacher in Nashua NH. I have grown up all my life around animals. I spent several summers as a life guard and have taken cpr, first aid, and life guard certification classes. When babysitting I enjoy doing crafts, playing outside, reading books, and finding new ways to be creative. Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you!

Here is a little bit about me. *Self-description* I am spunky, fun and dependable. I enjoy doing crafts and playing games. I also take joy in playgrounds, riding bikes, swimming, the library, and other fun things! I feel I would be a great companion for your child. *Additional information* I began an interest in caring for children when I was 13. I would babysit for families in the neighborhood. As I entered high school they had a day care in one of the wings. I began working there for credit.  From that point on I have always had a job working with children *Challenges of position* I have been with one of my families for 10 years, and I find that as they get older the respect level and listening skills decrease a little bit. It makes it difficult for me implement the rules of the house, so I have to be creative in my methods. *Rewards of position* It is a good feeling knowing that I am an important part in a child's life. Being able to watch them grow and help them with life decisions means a great deal to me.
