Hi everyone! My name is Emma, and I am a 26-year-old pediatric speech therapist in Portland. I have about 13 years of experience babysitting. I also have experience caring for children with a variety of developmental disabilities and am always excited to learn more to support the kids I work with! My favorite thing to do with children I babysit is read with them. I also have a reliable SUV and a clean driving record. I am CPR and first aid certified. I look forward to talking with you :)

Emma is the absolute best childcare option in the Portland region— we came up for a weekend wedding and everything about Emma, from her incredible credentials and perfect communication, had us at ease for the 6 hours we were gone. When we came back from the wedding, our 3 year old was happy, calm, had eaten better for Emma than he ever does for us, and had asked Emma to come to the parade next week back in his home town! Emma is exceptional and we only wish she lived in our state so that she could be a regular part of our lives. Thank you, Emma! Do yourself a favor and work with Emma if she has availability.

Hello! I am a college graduate and preschool teacher. I am currently looking for occasional or one-time childcare jobs. I have about 5 years experience working with kids of all ages. I also have professional and educational experience working with kids with autism and other developmental disorders. I have a passion for working with children and can assure that my care would be exceptional and professional, but most importantly fun and enjoyable for your children! Please reach out with any questions.

We were visiting friends in Saco over the weekend and Amanda sat with our kids a couple of times. She was flexible (our times changed a few times), arrived on time, was a quick communicator, and most importantly, was totally unfazed by our rambunctious 5-year old. I'd strongly recommend her and hope to have her sit for us again when we are back in Maine!

Hello! I am an experienced caregiver who has participated in childcare for over 22 years as a nanny, babysitter, and in center based environments. I have experience with infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school aged kiddos; I have cared for children up to age 16. I have done numerous overnights for families, so I have experience with that! I put emphasis on learning through play, and, being a nature lover, try to find ways to incorporate nature in our activities. When with your child, we can sing, read, dance, do art projects, listen to music, go for walks, and take field trips to farms, the museum, playgrounds, and other fun places. I have taken child development classes, so I am pretty aware of where kids are developmentally. Respecting others is important to me, so I try to find teachable moments to convey this. I am first aid/CPR certified. I have reliable transportation, and consider myself to be very reliable as well. I am looking to work in Portland, or within 25 miles of it. I am also fully vaccinated and boosted.

We hired Jada to babysit our two-year-old daughter while we were in Portland for a family vacation. This was our first time using SitterCity to find a sitter away from home, and we were a bit nervous. Jada was fantastic and made us feel totally comfortable going out for a date. She was clearly very experienced and established a good rapport with our daughter very quickly. We will definitely reach out to Jada again next time we’re visiting Portland!
Noelle M.
- 9 years paid experience

I have been babysitting since 2014 and nannying since 2018. I have also been subbing for the past three years and I recently graduated with a bachelors degree in elementary education. I am a travel nanny in the summer for a family based out of NYC and during the school year I am teaching currently. Summer of 2021, I was a part-time nanny for a 14 month old girl where I had many responsibilities including putting her down for her nap, feeding her, and entertaining her for the duration of our day. I have learned a lot about working with babies and toddlers on things like motor skills, developmental milestones, and emotional understanding. For older children, I have learned many strategies pertaining to supplemental learning inside and outside of the classroom. I love going on adventures and making the best out of any situations, so rain or shine I can guarantee we will have a lot of fun!

With going on 4 + years of experience, I think it’s safe to say that I love spending time with kids. I’m here to provide them with a safe and fun caregiver so you guys can go out and get things done! Kids are so silly and I love learning all about their individual personalities. I’ve done childcare in almost all aspects, I coached gymnastics for 3 years, was a camp counselor, preschool substitute teacher, and as of more recently I am a nanny for a lovely family. I love keeping busy and having my schedule filled which is why I’ve come on here to find some more families to connect with! I am CPR certified and have taken a multitude of childhood education coursework and certification classes which I would be happy to provide you with! Again, I’m here to make you feel comfortable and to provide your kids with a safe and happy environment. Let me know if you think that I would fit the job and I would be more than happy to connect with you about this position! Thank you.
