My most recent long-term babysitting job was for a family with three kids and a dog. I worked at a summer camp every summer for 4 years, watching girls anywhere from age 5 to 18. I am first aid and CPR certified, and have completed classes and training courses on child development. I taught summer school for elementary special education for 2 months. Although I do not have a background check directly with this site, I work as a substitute teacher and have a background check with the school system.

Hello! I’m Chloe, a senior at Strafford High and reliable and passionate childcare provider. Although I have two years of paid babysitting experience I have four years of volunteer experience for my churches youth program. I have worked with infants all the way to 7th graders. I believe in creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment where kids feel supported. Whether it’s organizing arts and crafts, playing in the backyard, or helping with homework, my goal is to keep children active and smiling. I pride myself on being proactive and maintaining open communication with parents. I am grateful for the opportunity to meet your family and hopefully make your evenings a little less stressful. Since I have school evenings is my main open free time on weekdays, but I am open every weekend. And once I graduate I’ll be able to work any hours! (Graduation this May 7th).

Hey! My name is Kaitlyn, I'm 25 years old and I have a passion for helping children learn and grow. I have 10 years of experience with all ages and in many settings ranging from being a nanny/babysitter, teaching in a daycare, and helping with therapy in a clinic. I've assisted families with potty training, behavioral management, and some tutoring. I am also up for helping out with chores like laundry, cleaning, and cooking as desired. I have experience working with special needs children as well, specifically autism, and I must say those were my favorite kiddos to work with! With my own reliable transportation, I'm open to running kids to/from activities or going on outings and adventures. I love cats and dogs, so furry friends are welcome too! I currently work part time at a float spa in Springfield, my schedule there is flexible. I look forward to meeting some new families to work with and having the opportunity to be a part of your children's lives!

Why I Would Be a Greatl Chikdcare provider. I would be an excellent babysitter because I bring both real-life parenting experience and long-term childcare background. I am a mother of two children, which has given me hands-on experience with daily routines, safety, patience, and nurturing care at every stage of childhood. In addition, I have worked as a nanny for twins, as well as a nanny for children ages two and three, which strengthened my ability to manage multiple children, understand developmental milestones, and create calm, structured, and engaging environments. I have also provided babysitting care (both paid and unpaid) since I was a young girl, making childcare a natural and lifelong part of who I am. I truly love working with babies and toddlers. These primary years are such a special and formative time, and I find joy in helping children feel safe, loved, and supported as they learn, grow, and explore the world. Families can feel confident knowing their children are in attentive, compassionate, and experienced hands.
