Having an older sister who nannied, as a kid I would beg to go along, knowing it was what I wanted to do when I grew up. She saw my love for it, and took to teaching me the ropes. As a preteen, I began taking on small jobs for family and friends, quickly earning my own reputation for enthusiastic and trustworthy care. In my later teens, I began taking on professional nannying jobs. I have experience with babies as young as 6 weeks up to children age 6+. I'm CPR + First Aid certified, and can offer glowing references. I'm here to do what has always brought me joy - helping bring it to your family.

Hi there! I have a lifetime experience working with children! My own 3 and now my 4 grandchildren , with 1 on the way! I am committed to caring for children in a positive, healthy manner. I’m very trauma informed and I know how to train, teach and treat your child. Watching children is my passion. I have been watching children on and off for a few years now. I’m also on care.com where I have the most recent 5 star review. I’m looking for 3-12 year olds to care for. I have a car and I can drive them or pick them up or drop them off at school. Looking forward to meeting you! -Laurie Just a side note the reason someone gave me a 1 star is because I didn’t sign a background check that she wanted to do but I had already taken another job that I was doing so I didn’t need to sign with her. I’m completely willing to sign for a background check I just didn’t need to in this instance and that upset her I guess. I never even babysat for her at all. We had one conversation and I was interviewing multiple families at the time. -Thank you

Hello! My name is Kalie. I’ve worked in childcare for 10 years professionally. I’ve worked in daycare, as a preschool teacher, and also been a private babysitter/nanny for many families. Ages have ranged from 2 weeks to 15 years. Responsibilities have ranged from the care of an infant to building lesson plans based on curriculum and much more of the daily responsibilities in caring for a child/children. My experience and training have taught me to encourage and aid development for all the ages I’ve worked with. I’ve taken my pre service training as well as multiple yearly courses in topics such as SIDS, car seat safety, food introduction and safety, curriculum basics, proper redirection, emotional modeling and much more. I have my own transportation. Most importantly, I aim to be a present and supportive role in any child’s life I enter and my ultimate goal is to see them grow and do well in life. I feel a child’s days and life should be filled with structure but lots of fun and love. I’d love to have a conversation about what I can do specifically for your family! Message me for any additional questions!

Hi! I am 21 years old, in my final semester at the University of Rochester. I teach 5th grade Sunday school at a local Synagogue, worked as a au pair this past summer for a family with children ages 10 & 14, spent two summers working as a day camp counselor for ages 5-11, and have babysat previously. I have my own car and am comfortable carpooling. I am experienced with dogs and comfortable caring for most other pets. I truly enjoy spending time with children and find forming real connections with them to be extremely fulfilling.

I truly enjoy working with children and being a steady, supportive presence for families. With many years of experience and having raised two children of my own, I understand how important it is to create a home environment that feels calm, organized, and safe. I’ve cared for children of all ages and am intentional about creating an environment that is both structured and flexible, where kids feel safe, supported, and free to grow. I love helping children learn and grow through everyday moments, whether that’s play, routines, or simply being present and attentive to their needs. I’m naturally organized and proactive, and I am skilled at staying on top of busy schedules, household tasks, and daily routines. I value clear and open communication while building trusting relationships with the families I work with.

Hi! I’m Chloe, I have experience working with kids in a summer camp setting, babysitting, and respite care. I’ve worked with children with intellectual disabilities as well as autism. I like being a fun presence, while also someone who children feel they can rely on. The feeling of safety is my priority for everyone. I am great at crafts, play pretend, and English homework help. My references include: Andy (age 5): “When is Chloe coming over to play dinosaurs again?” Peter (age 8): “My friend Chloe is coming after school today!” *names changed for anonymity, but should you be interested I’m happy to give you the reference of their parents!* If you have any other questions please feel free to ask!
