I hold a degree in Child Development and Early Childhood Education and have extensive experience working with children. From 2009 to 2019, I taught preschool-aged children, fostering their growth and development through engaging activities and personalized care. In 2019 and 2021, I worked as a Head Camp Counselor at a Girl Scout Camp, where I planned and led programs to create a fun and enriching environment. In 2022, I was promoted to Program Manager at the camp, further expanding my leadership and organizational skills. Additionally, I have hands-on experience as a nanny for two children, ages 2 and 4, and babysat for a family with a toddler from 2022 until the end of January. My responsibilities include preparing simple meals, assisting with potty training, and keeping the child engaged through indoor and outdoor activities. During the spring I babysat a one year old a few times. This summer I have been babysitting a six and ten year old. I also babysat 20 month year old twins a few times recently. Working with children has always been my passion, and I am currently seeking a babysitting position a few days during the week with preschool or elementary-aged children. My goal is to provide a nurturing, safe, and stimulating environment for the children in my care.

Stephanie has come over a few times to help me with my 13mo old daughter while I work from home. Stephanie is incredibly sweet and polite and plays so well with her. I was truly impressed with how well my daughter took to her as she hasn't had many sitters at all, they played so well together while I worked and I appreciate her help so much. I would consider Stephanie very reliable.

Hi, I love caring for infants and toddlers. I also have experience working with preschool and school age children. I have worked in family daycare, daycare centers, Head Start and in private homes. I have an Infant Toddler Certificate, a Special Needs Certificate, an A.S. degree in Early Childhood Education a B.A. in Sociology and Anthropology and some graduate school course work in Social Work. I have been trained in CPR and first aid. I have years of experience working in Human Services and caring for adults also. I have experience working with both adults and children with special needs.I love animals, am a nonsmoker and have a clean driving record with a reliable car. I'm seeking a part-time position and can provide excellent references upon request. See my 5 star reviews. Although I clean up the kitchen after meals and toys after play, my focus is childcare and I do not provide housekeeping, laundry or errands. I am also equipped to provide childcare in my home and live in a safe, quiet neighborhood. I have toys, books, a comfortable play space, a quiet nap space, music, movies, etc. I can also provide snacks, diaper changes and potty training. See my 5 star reviews. Thank you. I hope to hear from you soon!

Hi, my name is Vanessa, and I absolutely love being a nanny! Working with children brings me so much joy and fulfillment. I've had the privilege of caring for children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids, over the course of 5 years. My experience includes everything from basic childcare duties like feeding, diapering, and bedtime routines to helping with homework, planning creative activities, and ensuring a safe and positive environment for children to grow and thrive. What I enjoy most about being a nanny is building a strong, trusting relationship with each child and watching them develop their unique personalities and skills. I find it incredibly rewarding to support children in their growth, whether it's teaching them new things, encouraging them to explore their interests, or simply being there to comfort them when they need it. With 5 years of experience, I’ve learned the importance of being adaptable, patient, and organized. I’m skilled in creating engaging activities that are both fun and educational, from arts and crafts to outdoor play and science experiments. I’m also experienced in meal planning, light housekeeping, and providing a structured daily routine that helps kids feel secure and confident. I have been trained in first aid and CPR, and I understand the importance of clear communication with both parents and children. I aim to be a dependable, reliable, and caring presence in your child’s life, ensuring their safety, happiness, and well-being.

Vanessa is really wonderful. Not only does she speak English, German, Swiss German and Portuguese fluently, but she is also reliable, warmhearted and flexible. She makes great snacks and my 4year old kids eat so well with her. They have fun with her, but she also knows to offer cuddles and downtime at the right moment. She follows instructions and make the experience stress free for us parents. Our kids love her and we’re really happy that we found her. We hope that she stays with us for a long time!

I have a strong history of dependability and reliability. As a warm, patient, and creative nanny, I am able to form strong and trusting bonds with children.

We had a great experience with Julia with our 10 month old daughter. We used Julia while we were visiting from out of town. We spoke on the phone and I spoke with a reference that had good experience as well. Julia was on time, very friendly and personable and a good communicator. I’d use Julia again if I were from the area.

I live in Amesbury on High St. I am looking for babysitting jobs. I am great with kids, love to get down and play, go outside, bake, do crafts, read, etc., etc. I am experienced and was a nanny/babysitter in NY so I could live near my son, an actor. Now I am back to my hometown area and live between my sister’s in Newburyport and my sister’s in Nottingham, NH. I took care of my niece from 4 months until she turned 5 for 3 days a week and 2 overnights in a row. I was a live-In Nanny/Household Manager to a 6 year old girl from August 2012 to April 2013. Also for a 3 and 4 year old for the summer. I was a live-in Nanny/House Manager for a family of 2 children and a dog. While raising my son, Keith, I always had my sister's 3 children, to give my son playmates. I was the 4th child of 8 children in a loving, happy family and helped my Mom raise 4 of my younger siblings, as well as managing a household, cooking and homework help. You will never find a more loving, caring and patient babysitter for your children. I'm retired from the Air Force after 20 years.

Sheila has been great for us as a last minute sitter! Sometimes, when our daily childcare falls through, we end up scrambling to find someone to fill in. Sheila has been very responsive and able to come help out. She is great with our infant daughter - able to keep her happy, put her down for naps etc. We feel very lucky to have found Sheila! :)
