Hi I’m Sophia! I’m a grad student currently attending SBU to get my MBA! I just graduated in 2025 with a Bachelors of Science in Business and Psychology. I am American Red Cross CPR/AED/First Aid certified for Infants, Children, and Adults. I’ve had 5 years paid experience in childcare starting as a mother’s helper, to babysitter, to nanny. Over the past 5 years I’ve worked with several different families. I started working at my university’s child care Infant-Toddler Room in January 2022 in which I assist with taking care of 15 children ranging from 3 months to 3 years old! Through the daycare, I have acquired several different types of skills through mandated trainings, like allergy awareness and safe sleep. I have travel nanny experience with two different families caring for their infants (6mo and 8mo). I also have a handful of families that I occasionally babysit for! I'm very creative and passionate about art, I love to think out of the box and come up with new crafts and developmentally appropriate activities! I love letting the kids express their creativity through play, music, and art!

Hi, I'm Jéssica. I'm an honest, caring, and responsible caregiver with over 10 years of experience. For the past five years, I've focused on infant care - supporting little ones from 5 weeks to 15 months - and I also have extensive experience caring for toddlers and children up to 10 years old. I truly love being part of a child's growth. Learning with them, adapting to their unique rhythm, and supporting each stage of development is something that brings me joy. With toddlers and older kids, I enjoy encouraging independence, helping with learning, guiding routines, and creating fun activities like arts and crafts, outdoor play, and age appropriate teaching. I'm also happy to help with potty training and can introduce your child to Portuguese if you'd like. I'd be happy to talk more, understand your child's needs, and share references.

This was my first time using a babysitter, so I was naturally a little nervous. Cathy made me feel comfortable and reassured me throughout the experience. I really appreciated her kindness and how she helped ease my worries. I had a great experience and would definitely recommend her to other families. I would happily book with Cathy again!

Iivanilde was super great, with my grandparents! They were both so grateful to have someone to care for them just how a family member would do, treat them like they were family and that is exactly what iivanilde did with my Nonna and papa. So thank you, iivanilde! From the bottom of my heart. I truly recommend her for others to hire. If you want someone that you think would feel like a family member she is the right candidate for the position to care for others in your house or department or hospital. She is super great, flexible, reliable and responsible. Super funny and joy to be around at all times!

Hi! I am a 28 year old living in Stamford, CT. I work part time remote from my apartment with a very flexible schedule. I have been babysitting for the past 10 years.. have babysat up to 5 children at a time, and have babysat for all ages. I was also a nanny for a family for two years where I helped raise their newborn until she was two years old. Certified in CPR, AED and First Aid. I'd like nothing more than to make sure your kids are well taken care of while you're either away or at home. Please let me know if you have any questions, I'm more than happy to answer. I have my own car with a clean record, good insurance, and am willing to provide references.

We only worked with Kelli once before we moved, but the one time she met our son and babysat for us, she was great. He was around 10 months old with a little separation anxiety still and he played well with her with no challenges. We loved how he took to her and we felt like we could trust her with our kiddo. Thanks, Kelli!

Hi! I’m Caitlin, and I absolutely love working with children and helping them learn, grow, and feel confident. I’ve been babysitting for over 5 years and have been working as a teacher for the past 3 years. I’ve had experience as a lead teacher with toddlers ages 2–3 and children ages 3–4, and I currently work with preschoolers. I’m patient, caring, responsible, and always try to create a fun, safe, and positive environment where children can be themselves. I’d love the opportunity to care for your little ones and give them the same attention and kindness I would want for my own family. I currently have an active heart saver cpr/aed certification for adults and pediatric and training in asthma care along with various certifications taken for my work.

Caitlin is such a doll and she is fantastic with my kids. I have a boy and a girl 2 & 3 years old. My boy was having trouble potty training and Caitlin did such a good job with him, only took him about a month to get it down. Overall my kids love her and they can’t wait to see her whenever she comes around.

Experienced, reliable babysitter and nanny available to help your family part-time Hello, dear families! My name is Maria, and I am a dedicated nanny with a decade and a half of professional experience in child care, alongside the personal experience of raising a wonderful daughter of my own. My journey with children has not only been a job but a passion that has grown with every year I’ve spent nurturing young minds. I am currently seeking a part-time position and am available to bring my caring nature and expertise to your home on Monday to Friday 6 to 8:30 a.m. and evenings Monday to Thursday 4:30 to 7 p.m. Weekends also available .My schedule is crafted to align with the academic calendar, as I’ve been with a wonderful family for a decade and continue to work with them. However, now that the children are in school, I have additional hours and an abundance of care to extend to another fantastic family. My approach is always thoughtful and centered around the unique needs of each child I look after. I pride myself on being reliable—a trait that has been paramount in maintaining a decade-long relationship with a single family—and hardworking, always willing to go that extra mile to ensure a stable, positive environment for the children in my care. My experience spans caring for children of all ages, from the delightful curiosity of toddlers to the fascinating thoughts of teenagers. I deeply understand the varying needs at different developmental stages, and I’m adept at engaging children in a mix of educational and recreational activities. I can cook, drive, do laundry, run errands – anything you need, no task too big or small. I am looking forward to the opportunity to care for your children, providing them not just with supervision, but with a nurturing, fun environment where they can thrive, learn, and feel at ease. Please feel free to contact me for any more information or to discuss how I can be a part of your family’s journey.

Maria is one of the most wonderful people I have ever met. She has been with my family for about a year and a half now. She gets my kids off the bus at around 3 and watches them until I get home (4-5 days/week), generally around 7. She is more than willing to help you out, with whatever you need. When asked to do something in particular, her pat answer is "no problem". She is a a great driver and VERY responsible. She has not once left me shorthanded and has helped me out on NUMEROUS occasions when I was in a jam. For example, she even slept over when night when my husband and I went away! Her help around the house, wonderful can do attitude, responsibility, and understanding of children is a home run. My kids are getting older so I do not need help with the kids as much as I did. Maria is a treasure and I have come to think of her as a good friend. I am going to miss all of her help! If you are unsure, give her a chance - you will not be sorry.
