Hi there! My name is Hillary and I absolutely love working with families and caring for children! I started my career babysitting during high school. While attending college for my art degree, I worked with several families part time. These were so fun and rewarding, that I decided to pursue childcare full-time, with professional nanny positions. For over 15 years I have continued to provide families with individualized care for their children, including experience with newborns and infant twins! Providing help with transportation, overnights, nanny share and pet care are included in my detailed resume, with references available upon request. In between regular positions, I focus on occasional sitting and providing emergency/ back up care. I would be available to fill in, if your primary childcare is unavailable, even with very short notice. I look forward to hearing from you!

I will be fully available the first Monday in January 2023 from 9 am to 4pm…Monday through Friday! I have 15 years of professional experience in caring for children. The ages I have worked with are infant to school age so I am well verse in age developmental milestones and age appropriate learning. I have also worked as an at home teacher providing care to 3 children. When I'm with children I take care of them as if they were my own. My goal as a sitter, nanny and teacher is to take care of children, help them grow, and to just have fun with them! I am willing to do light housekeeping and meal preparation. If I had to describe myself in five adjectives I would say that I am dependable, honest, hard working, a good listener, and kind. My friends also say I am bubbly and funny!!☺️ I am looking forward to hearing from you soon! Thank you, Veronica

Hi! I’m Bailey, i'm a High School senior (18) and I’ve been babysitting for about three years. I truly enjoy spending time with kids of all ages, and I love being a sitter because every day is different — you get to learn their personalities, be part of their growth, and create a safe, fun environment for them to feel comfortable in. I have experience working with all kinds of kids, including toddlers, school-aged children, and siblings of different ages. I’m patient, dependable, and always make sure kids feel supported and understood. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, doing crafts, or getting everyone settled for bedtime, I try to make each moment positive and stress-free. I’m also CPR and First Aid certified and completed a babysitting course, so safety is always my first priority. Along with that, I bring strong communication skills and good problem-solving abilities, which help me handle unexpected situations calmly and confidently. As well as, good communication with parents and guardians. I’d love the chance to get to know your family and be someone you can rely on. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out!

I have had 11 prior nanny positions. All have been with newborns and have been wonderful opportunities! I specialize in caring for newborns during their first year of life and I am extremely nurturing and loving with children. Prior to my nanny positions, I was a stay at home mother for 22 years. I have three children of my own, ages 33, 30 and 20. Before having my own children, I was a school social worker and a caseworker working with children. I know how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your child. I have a lot of experience caring for children both personally and professionally. I especially love reading and playing with them. Watching them learn and grow is such a joy! I provide quality, loving, educational, fun, one to one child care in my home so your child will have my undivided attention. I also always keep a daily journal so you will always know about your child's day. :) Thank you for considering me to care for your child.

I am a junior at Elizabethtown College. I am majoring in Early Childhood Education. I have all my clearances along with CPR training and First Aid training. I plan to teach in a preschool to first grade classroom but work well with all kids. I absolutely love being around kids and seeing them smile. I am one out of 5 in my family and 1 out of 25 grandkids, so I have been surrounded by kids my whole life. I have been babysitting since I was 13 years old. I work at summer camps over the summer, mainly with kids from 3-5, but I work well with all kids. I currently have a job as well, which is a before-and-after-school program with kids that range from preschool to fifth grade. I love being able to help kids find new interests and allow them to have fun while being safe.
