Find experienced babysitters in Phippsburg, ME

Hello adults, children, and everyone in between! My name is Maddy Rowe, and I hope to be your next caregiver. My experience with children is wide-ranging. During the summers in high school, I lived with a family in Oregon and worked as a full-time nanny for two young girls, and during the summers in college, I worked as a lifeguard and taught youth and infant swimming lessons. While attending college, I volunteered with an afterschool program that built community gardens for students in underserved communities, and I worked with an organization called Sally House that brought arts education to children in the foster care system. After graduating from college, I moved to New York, where I worked as a middle school art teacher and a part-time tutor for a family with two high school-aged children. During the summer, I also nannied for a family with two young boys. In all of these roles, I have learned that what children crave is companionship and encouragement. I strive to be more than just an educator and caregiver, but a person with whom kids feel supported and safe. I believe that through intentional care and compassion, we can foster environments where children feel comfortable being their most authentic selves and exploring the world around them without fear. I will preface here that I am a heavily tattooed queer person, and I think it is vital that children encounter all kinds of people and explore all kinds of self-expression. If our values sound aligned, I would love to be considered as a potential friend in helping care for your family.

I love babysitting! I always helped my mom when she babysat and then started on my own in high school around 16. I have had my driver’s license for 5 years. I love sitting because I can form connections with the kids and make them smile. I am CPR and First Aid certified — I’m a Lifeguard and Nursing Assistant — also certified in infant CPR. In college, I babysit 2 twins and a toddler. I have experience with pre teens, infants, toddlers, and young children. I love going on walks, playing outside, and playing games with the kids. It’s a great side job to have, especially getting to know the kids!

Hello! I currently work full time at a local child care center and am looking to find a few families to babysit for to earn some xtra cash. I have an undergraduate degree in Early Childhood Education, a Masters degree in Curriculum and Instruction, and a year of Waldorf teacher training. I am currently researching and working with RIE and Neufeld practices. I am 26, pet friendly, non-smoking, and have my own transportation. I am CRP and first aid certified.

I've spent a lot of time around kids since I grew up in a huge family of 5 kids and 6 stepsiblings. The first thing I did to make money was babysit, I started when I was eleven and have babysat for so many different families since. I'm a trained babysitter with American Red Cross and have been certified in CPR for children, toddlers, and infants. I did this training to ensure that I could handle emergency situations. I play the guitar and love singing along to nursery rhymes with kids I'm babysitting. I love doing art and making sure that kids are having fun and being creative. I've also tutored many different age groups and grew up with a teacher as a mother. This makes helping kids learn a lot easier. Trust in me to take care of your children and keep them happy and healthy under my watch.
