Hi there! My name is Sara! I am 23 years old and I am working towards becoming a parent educator. I love working with children and learning more about how they develop. I love learning about gentle parenting and Montessori teaching methods. I’d love to help you or your family in caring for your little one(s). I’d be more than happy to share more about my past babysitting and nannying experience as well.

Sara is a caring and generous person. She is watching our elementary age girls and they hit it off immediately! She performs semi regular sitting for us and engages the girls with crafts and other fun.

Essie is very down to earth and was a great nanny to our 2 year old for a brief time, and our daughter still feels connected to her.

Current preschool and school-age teacher with four years of hands-on experience supporting children’s growth, behavior, and daily routines. I recently completed my Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Studies (December 2025) and bring a strong background in communication, patience, and creating a safe, engaging environment. My experience in childcare, along with past roles in food service, babysitting, and pet care, has helped me build reliability, adaptability, and strong teamwork skills. I’m looking to bring these strengths into a role where I can continue working with and supporting others in a hands-on setting.

I have a nanny profile so I also wanted to add a babysitting profile. I am looking for weekend work since I am already working full time during the week (could also be flexible and work after school during week day if needed) I have worked with children since I was 17 years old (now 26) and I am currently an ABA therapist for preschool working with nonverbal autistic children! I also have experience as a nanny for a family for 3 years in which the children were 5 and 7 when I started! (I did that job part time during the school year and full time in the summer) I also have experience with newborns/infants if a new mom needs a date night or girls night out! :)

Hello! My name is Monica and I am excited to serve you and your children! I am a mom to six adult children, three grandchildren, a dog and a cat (wish I had chickens and a goat!) and married for over 37 years. I have worked in education my entire life, currently serving as an elementary principal at a private school. I have a masters degree and license to teach and in administration. I have worked as a full time nanny, tutor, classroom teacher and ran my own preschool for 20 years. I am passionate about children living to their full potential and encouraging children to explore, learn, (fail sometimes) and grow. It is exciting to see their eyes light up at a new discovery! I love being active, being outside, discovering and learning new things alongside your children. I also love supporting parents by helping with tasks such as establishing routines/schedules, sleep schedules, making healthy homemade meals/snacks, tutoring, organizing closets/children's bedrooms, housecleaning, errands, etc. Summers are down time for me so I am here to serve you and your family! I can't wait to meet you!

I am an energetic sitter looking for work. I love nature and animals too. I have two golden retrievers, Belle and Brooklyn. I have many years of experience and also worked at a pre school as an assistant teacher. I enjoy the outdoors and I also think it’s important to stimulate children at young ages. I love arts and crafts and new experiences. I am responsible, trust worthy and reliable. I have my own vehicle and committed to stay busy on my free time.

Hi. My name is Jessica Dube and I’ve been a professional nanny since 1998. During these years I have worked with 5 wonderful families. The children were all of infant age when I started with them. Generally I stay with a family for 2-3 years. I love planning age appropriate outings such as trips to the library and playgroups. I’m a big believer in reading to your children starting at birth so that is one of my favorite activities. Infants are my specialty but I’ve worked with all age groups. If you’d like to hear more about me please reach out. My references are impeccable. Jessica Dube
