Hello, My name is Alexandra, I’m 51 a semi retired masters level social worker. I have about 30+ years of experience. focused jobs and be able to work with kids in a more organic way. I am known to be silly, conscientious, reliable and very compassionate. I truly enjoy being with kids of all ages and find it meaningful to help them experience the world in thoughtful, creative, playful and secure ways. I try to make things seem like an adventure and address conflicts as opportunities for growth. I am also very good with infants and have experience with sleep training. I see my job as being both a coach and a mama bear. If anything does arise I am extremely well trained, calm and focused in an emergency. I’ve been CPR and First Aid trained for over 30 years. As a parent and family social worker I have learned many effective behavior management techniques for kids ages birth to 100. I believe it's extremely important to provide each family the specific care they want and to honor the norms, needs and values of the household.The most important thing to know about me as a childcare provider is that I will take care of your children, pets and household the way you want me to. I believe taking responsibility for the well-being of any child means you always put them first. Choosing the right person to care for your child and trust them in your home is the most important decisions a person can make. I welcome any and all kinds of questions or requests and can make myself available for online interviews at your convenience. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, Alexandra Sagov MSW

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.

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!

Hello! My name is Savanna. I am a recent college graduate who is looking to give a helping hand to your family! I feel inspired by our coming generation and love working and playing with children in a compassionate, thoughtful way. I believe that children constantly teach us lessons as we teach them. My approach to childcare is based on giving mutual respect and compassion, both to each other, and to the world around them. My general guidelines, alongside instructions from the parents, are: "Are they safe? Are they happy?" My approach to childcare also includes the outdoors. In my experience, children flourish when outside! Constructive play, engagement with the outdoors, and encouraging curiosity are all incredibly important to not only myself, but to my childcare practices. I'm the oldest of 5, and I've spent much of my life caring for children. I have about a year and a half of experience in substitute teaching at both public and Waldorf inspired curriculums. Additionally, I have a year of paid nanny experience. I'm looking forward to hearing from you!

Hi,My name is Danah! Here is a little bit about me: I am currently in Graduate school at Springfield College to get a Masters in Occupational therapy. During my undergrad at Springfield I was also a member of the women’s gymnastics team. I have a strong passion for working with Kids with tons of experience! Since the age of 14, I have worked as a gymnastics coach for kids ages 2 and up! I have also worked as a summer camp counselor for kids of all ages. With that being said I am more than comfortable working with multiple kids at once and can provide any entertainment and I am extremely engaged with them. I also maintain a job working as a personal care attendant. During my free time I babysit for any members of the local community. I am CPR certified, have a reliable car, and can provide references as needed. I am comfortable with pets and have pet sit for families as well. I hope to find more families to connect with! Contact me for any of your date night needs! Thanks!

I love babysitting kids and pets because they're the best kind of company anyone can ask for. Kids are innocent, pure and can make you laugh with the things they do and the imagination they have. I currently work as a line Cook and a behavioral health professional. I work hard in the heat and stress of a kitchen while keeping a calm head. I also work with children and teenagers with neurodevelopmental disorders as a BHP, getting to know them and assisting them to achieve their life skills, and help manage behavior. I have many skills that I can bring to babysitting your kiddo! I like to get to learn about them first by observing or hearing about them from you parents or them, themselves! It gives me a chance to best understand how they tick, what they're limitations are and where I may notice some push back with chores, homework or such. I also can provide guidance to the older kids and teens with a path for independence, strong work ethic, cooking healthy foods and taking on leadership roles. And I know I didn't talk much about pets but I am very good with animals. I am stern but passionate about them. Big dogs do not scare me away so don't be afraid if you have a big dog! I'd love to chat more one on one to see what I can provide you and your family!
