Find experienced babysitters in Birch Island, ME

I just finished my 20th year as a second and third teacher. l graduated 8 years ago with my Master's in Education. I have had 20+ years of childcare experience. I have been a nanny or babysitter for over 20years. I was a babysitter starting in high school and continued on the side until college. While in college I was a nanny through Beacon Hill Nannies and lived in New York as a live in nanny. The following summers I have been a nanny in Falmouth, Yarmouth, Cumberland, Cape Elizabeth,Freeport, Kennebunkport ,Scarborough and Boothbay Harbor. I have also done multiple nanny jobs in New York and throughout New England. I have been a nanny for children ages new born twins to twelve years old. I have great references as well. I currently have open availability for after-school care, school vacations, and date nights. I also will travel for weddings, events or ski resorts. I am currently starting to book traveling families for the 2025 calendar. I worked over 20 weddings in Maine the last two summers and worked for many families on vacation in hotels or homes they rented. I do have my calendar ready to start booking for next year if you know your vacation dates! I look forward to hearing from you!

Hello Families! I am a conscious babysitter/nanny that loves to engage! My heart is full when I have a connection with both the parents and the children that I'm working with. My flexible schedule makes me available to do random babysits or to be your regular sitter. I bend to your needs. Need me to do some cooking, cleaning, shopping? You got it! Want your child to feel loved, supported and engaged? You've come to the right place!

Hello parents! I am a 26 year-old single mom with plenty of childcare experience prior to becoming a parent myself. As the oldest of 6, I grew up caring for my younger siblings, and then later went on to begin babysitting kids in the neighborhood, starting at 12 years-old. I continued to babysit and pick up nannying gigs (ages ranging from 8mo-12yrs), until I went into the food industry and housekeeping the last few years. I’m looking for a part-time gig to fill in a couple weekdays I’m currently not working, ideally something I could work around my child’s school schedule, and potentially could bring them along on occasion when school is out. I have reliable transportation and a clean driving record, and I’m willing to drive kids to and from school/extracurriculars. I can offer homework help when needed, though I admit I’m not great at math! Housekeeping for additional pay as well. Looking forward to hearing from you, and being back in the child care industry!

I am a very reliable, patient, energetic and creative person with approximately 4 years of experience taking care of children. I’ve taken care of infants to teenagers. I am willing to do additional tasks if requested. I am organized, a good multitasker and creative. I enjoy coming up with creative ways for kids to have fun. I have taken Child development classes in highschool as well as some college classes. I have worked in a daycare and a preschool for the past year. In the fall I plan to go into Early Childhood Education at CMCC. With my skills and experience, I am able to provide a safe, supervised and stable fun environment for all children.

Hi, my name is Alexandra. I am 23 years old and live in Brooklyn. I graduated in 2021 from Middlebury College in Vermont. I have been babysitting since I was 13 and have also worked at various summer camps. I love spending time with kids and working on creative projects with them or helping them with homework. I also speak Spanish and have served as a Spanish tutor/or babysit immersively by speaking Spanish with the kids I am babysitting and can do this with your kids if it is something you are interested in! I recently left a job at a podcast production company and have very flexible availability (days and evenings).

Being a sitter lets me support children as they grow, explore, and learn through play, which is something that genuinely makes me happy. I love building trusting relationships where kids feel safe, understood, and excited to be themselves.​ I have hands-on experience as a student teacher at Community Preschool, actively supervising children ages 2½–5, guiding conflict resolution, and planning engaging activities. I also volunteer with Big Brothers Big Sisters as a big sister, providing one-on-one mentoring, comfort, and care.​ My Early Childhood Education program at Region 10 prepared me to work professionally with children ages 0–8, and I hold CPR certification, MRTQ 6-hour Health and Safety Training, and DHHS Mandated Reporter training. Families can count on my strong communication, organization, problem-solving, and conflict-resolution skills to keep their children safe, supported, and having fun.

With over 10 years of experience working with kids of all ages, I’ve learned that patience, creativity, and a big dose of enthusiasm are key to making each day special. I spent time as a preschool teacher, where I really dug into early childhood education and discovered how important it is to create a fun, supportive, and nurturing environment. But honestly, I learned the most from nannying two amazing kiddos, ages 2 and 4, for a couple of years—those little ones taught me so much. I’m a free-spirited soul who loves to find new ways to keep things playful and exciting. Nature is my happy place, and I truly believe it plays a huge role in a child’s growth. Whether we’re crafting, reading (I’m a huge book lover!), going on outdoor adventures, or making up games on the spot, I’m all about turning every moment into a fun learning opportunity. My approach is rooted in love, patience, and making sure kids always feel safe and supported. I thrive in an environment where communication is open, and I can manage multiple tasks while keeping things lighthearted and fun. Building strong, trusting relationships is so important to me, and I believe clear communication is key to making sure everyone’s on the same page. During the warmer months, I’m the head gardener for a beautiful private estate in Yarmouth, which gives me a chance to dig into my love for nature and creativity. I’m excited about the possibility of bringing my positive energy, creativity, and experience to your family!

As a college graduate from Endicott College with a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science with minors in Nutrition and Wellness, and Psychology, I am currently looking for a part-time job post-graduation in the babysitting/nannying field as I have previous experience in this field. I am living in Topsham, ME and have my own car for transportation. I have been babysitting since I was 16-17 years old and have been certified through the Red Cross to do so since I was 12 years old. The ages of the children have ranged from infants to 11-12 years old. It has been a very meaningful and valuable experience for me as I want to have my own family someday. Through Endicott’s academic program, I completed Risk Assessment and Special Population classes where I learned about first aid and working with children. Last year I was a nanny for a 3-year-old boy and was responsible for transportation to and from school/activities, snack and meal prep, laundry and housekeeping, potty training, nap time, and playtime I am an animal lover as well, and have cats of my own. I love sports, movies, and music.

Hello My name is Izzy! I have spent my last three summers working as a counselor/assistant supervisor at my local rec camp! During the school year I volunteered with special needs kids for 4 years! I love working with kids and want to eventually become a teacher!

I love my profession because children have been my life, from raising my own two and 20 years as a teacher. I'm warm, friendly, organized, fun, and sensitive to various personalities and needs. Fingerprinted, background checked, certified Infant/Child CPR/1st aid, member of nanny organizations, and I have references from several families I have "nannied!" My specialty is birth to 12 mo. but have enjoyed all ages. My hourly rate is $24-25 for 1 child depending on what is needed, $27 for 2 children, $20-25 for single events. Included: simple meal prep for the baby, dishes, tidying toys at day's end, minimal pet care. Nannying is my sole income, so like a daycare, I am paid a weekly salary to hold that timeslot for the duration of the assignment. I am currently available some Fridays and weekends, and in May my schedule will open up more! I typically look for 4 8-hr days but can flex. Please reach out with any questions! I'd love to talk with you!
