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!

I have been babysitting for about 10 years now, and have tons of experience with kids from age 6 months all the way up to age 17. I have gained this experience from caring for younger family members, babysitting for multiple families, being a camp counselor at various types of camps, and being and Early Childhood Education major at Salem State University. I love working with kids and enjoy teaching them new things every day with enriching experiences! I am outgoing, caring, responsible, and tons of fun!

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!

I am a dedicated and compassionate caregiver with a strong background in education, childcare, and healthcare. I have one year of experience working as a substitute in an elementary school, where I supported students’ learning and assisted teachers in maintaining a positive classroom environment. Before that, I spent two years working in a daycare, gaining hands-on experience in early childhood development and providing safe, nurturing care for young children. In addition to my work with children, I have valuable healthcare experience, including working in a hospital setting and providing care for elderly residents in a nursing home. I am a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) and currently advancing my skills and knowledge as a nursing student. I am passionate about helping others, committed to providing high-quality care, and driven to grow within the healthcare field.

Hi there. I am a recent grad of the University of Maine and am looking for part-time opportunities as a nanny or babysitter. I have a long history working with children which started in 2019 while I was finishing high school. In college I worked part-time at the Children's Dyslexia Center of Bangor, and more recently I worked as a Prevention Educator for one of Maine's Domestic Violence's Resource Centers. I prioritize the physical and emotional safety of every child I work with and always remain engaged and patient. I'm also an animal lover and am willing to help out around the house. Please reach out to me if you have any questions.

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!

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.
