Sittercity helps Eliot families find the best babysitters

Hi! Since graduating from Brandeis University in 2022. I've been a pre-k teacher in Honolulu, HI. My first babysitting gig was watching my younger sister for my mom growing up. I babysat for others throughout high school and worked as a nanny while in college. I am excited to transition back to working with a family (or families) on a more personalized level again as I look for a position here. I am currently pursuing my PhD in Occupational Therapy and am lucky enough to currently have a relatively flexible schedule upon moving to Maine in July!

Hi my name is Oriah and I am very passionate about kids. I love kids of all ages but especially love babies. I have recently graduated from UNH with a degree in Human Development & Family Studies and a minor in Anthropology. I have an array of experiences working with children. I have newborn experience, and have had long term nanny positions with multiple families. I also have experience working at a preschool. I am patient, energetic and goofy. I love art and being creative as well as the outdoors. I think it is extremely important for children to develop a loving relationship with nature and the outdoors. I think the most important factor for a babysitter and a family is to have open communication. I hope you consider hiring me as your babysitter because I truly enjoy working with children. Please message me if you need help! I am currently looking for 30 hours a week this fall.

I'm a seasoned childcare professional with more than 10 plus years of experience working in various home and family management settings, looking to find a family to collaborate with. I always maintain a positive attitude, patience, and compassion through all the triumphs and challenges of childcare. Looking to help organize a home or assist a parent. Recently I have been focusing on home management and reorganization. Which include decluttering and rearranging spaces, rooms, homes or offices for clients. Working to create a coherent use of space, create systems and environments which are tidy, organized, clutter-free, and functional. After my years of nannying I have a full comprehension of how a families environment can help them thrive or aggravate the already hectic day to day. I come in to collaborate and ease the difficulty of balancing it all.

Hi, I am recently retired as a dog groomer. I have taken care of children (& pets) for the last 52 years. I have also raised two of my own children. I find that taking care of children is very satisfying for me and mainly I know I am truly helping you & your family. I enjoy doing many fun things with children, i.e., going on walks, with or without dog(s), going to the park, the library, exploring outside around the yard, or inside reading, playing games, puzzles, any kind of arts & crafts, cooking. Homework or projects from school. Basically you name it and I can help! I am a very warm and caring person, reliable, responsible, honest and trustworthy. I would love to have the opportunity to help with your child care needs. You can head out the door and know your child/children are safe with me. Please give me a try...thank you for taking the time to read this. Regards, Cindy

Hello, I have a bachelors degree in elementary education, a masters in child guidance counseling & 15 years operating nonprofit early childhood centers. I have been a swim instructor & provide dog sitting services as well. Check out Seacoast Paws. I have my own children 12, 10 & 3 years old. Looking forward in meeting you.

I live in South Berwick, Maine. I worked full time at a childcare in York for the past 11 years. I just recently switched jobs to become a nanny. I currently work part time for two different families. Starting in mid November I will have availability for nannying two days a week. I have no children myself, but I love kids and I love spending time with them. I have been working with children for about 15 years both as a babysitter and in a child care setting. I have worked with children between the ages of 6 weeks and 12 years. I am both CPR and First Aid certified. I also have my CDA.

I have a lot of experience with babysitting from ages <1 year to around 12 years old! I have also had experience with tutoring kids around the 9-13 years old which gives me good experience to help with homework, etc. I am a freshman in the College of General Studies at Boston University and am looking for some part time work on weekends or possibly one weekday (around 5-6 hrs a week). I recently had a gap semester where I spent most of it (32 hrs a week) nannying for two different families (one boy - 1 y/o and the other family 2 girls - 2 and 4 y/o) and I really grew to love the work and the kids so much so I’m hoping to find that here as well! I love working with kids and really enjoy the work I have been able to do with them in the past which makes me very hardworking on the job and fun for the kids!

Hello! My name is Sagia. I am in San Francisco right now. I am a senior in college at UNH. I have many years of babysitting experience, mostly between the ages of 1 and 12. I have also worked at the child development center (usually in the 3/4 year old classroom) and toddler classroom for the past 2 years. I am also CPR certified and fluent in Spanish. I am happy to have a phone conversation and answer any questions you may have. I have experience with pets as well :)

Hi, I'm a 55 year old single mother of 3 wonderful, healthy and thriving young men. 24, 21, and 18. The youngest 2 are Eagle Scouts. I'm as proud as can be of who they've become, and can't help but be grateful to God for the gift of my boys! I'm blessed to have been able to be a full time mother, so my hands on experience is extensive! Matthew Kelly says "the soul is healed by being with children." Even when they're naughty we have to laugh, because they don't have the wisdom to know we are one step ahead of them. Having taught Religious Ed. for 5 years, I was required to get certified in the "Protecting God's Children" training on how to avoid and spot abuse, through the Diocese of Manchester. I've taken the Cub/Boy Scouts, "Youth Protection" training through the Daniel Webster Council in Manchester, NH. I was a Den leader in Cub Scouts for 10 yrs, and also served as Committe Chair on several committees including the Pinewood Derby. I started babysitting when I was 12, and have always loved being with children. There's nothing like their candid honesty. My experience with children is from infants up through college aged. I was a classroom volunteer from preschool up through Exeter High School. Served as room mother and on several school committees, such as Grandparents Luncheon, and Winter Carnival, and 3rd Grade Immigration Day. Chaperoned on my Volunteered at Steubenville East, UMass Lowell 2 yrs as an Usher, and one on Prayer Team. I adore children and their perspective on things. They're uninhibited and teach you new things all the time. I'm a musician who loves all kinds of music. I play flute, piano and sing. I like giving children 2 good choices, so they feel in control when they choose one of the options. I was infant/child CPR certified long ago, and would like to renew the training. Pets are wonderful, they bring so much joy. My mom calls them "heartbeats in fur costs." I'm ready going, positive and always smiling. Smiles and laughter are contagious, it's all about love!
