Hello Families, I am updated on all Vaccinations. *I'm sorry I will not provide any families transportation.* I have had experience with CPR and first aid as well and can use those skills if it was needed. 💖 I can accommodate children with special needs. As I have years experience caring for four individual families who have an autistic child ages from 2yrs-12yrs old. Also have experience with children with ADD and separation anxiety. No matter the age I enjoy being apart of your child's day. 🌞Mini Bio: My name is Ashley. Started babysitting at age of 16 for family and friends of the family. Then when those children outgrew me , I found sittercity and got alot my jobs here . I've done PET sitting, house sitting, and babysitting. Most families I been lucky watch the kids until they outgrown needing me, or sometimes I get one day jobs Read more with families that are just visiting Rhode Island needing a sitter. Thank You & Hope to hear from you soon!

If I could give her 100 stars, I would! Ashley has made my life so much easier. We hired her for a regular daytime sitting job while I worked from home. She does an amazing job taking care of our 6-month old: she reads to him, plays with him, talks to him about all sorts of things, and helps him with tummy time. He definitely loves being around her! She's also been a sitter for my older kids when school is out, and they absolutely adore her. When my baby is napping, she helps me out even further by straightening up the kids' toys. She definitely goes above and beyond!

Ashley has been watching my three children for a month now and she is wonderful. She is sweet, kind, and always available when I need her. My daughter Sloane (2 yo) has separation anxiety at baseline but had no problem when left alone with Ashley. I cannot tell you how relieved I was. I could finally enjoy a night out. So blessed to have found such a patient, kid friendly sitter. Highly recommend!

Ashley is fantastic. She has regularly cared for our son for around a month, starting when he was around 3 months old. She has been phenomenal with him, and clearly has a natural affinity for infant care. She is detailed and dedicated in following the schedule we have our son on, has been very reliable, and deeply compassionate. We recommend her very highly, especially for very young children.

Just perfect! Ashley watched my two kids - age 1 girl and age 3 boy - and we all (kids included) could not have been happier. We were in RI for a family wedding so it was a long evening out - started in the afternoon, Ashley played with, fed, and did the whole bed time routine (ever harder with hotel bed time routine - hotel bed and porta crib). I was most nervous about my 1 year old, who is typically quite clingy to her parents. Ashley came in and immediately started playing with her, she took to her right away. My 3 year had taken a late nap in his stroller (he doesn’t typically nap) and was all out of sorts with the hotel and was in a bad mood. We were trying to calm him and Ashley encouraged us to not be late for our wedding. I could hear him yelling when we left. By the time we reached the lobby of the hotel, she sent a photo of him happily playing. Ashley asked about my preference for updates and she sent me little text and photo updates throughout the evening, which really helped me relax and enjoy the wedding! Seriously - we don’t do babysitters a lot, I had really been anxious about the wedding and I had a blast! Oh and my kids were both asleep at normal bedtime and the 3 year talked all about how much fun he had with Ashley! I only wish we lived in RI!

Ashley has worked with us a few times and every experience has been great. She worked very well with our 6 year old, who can be very difficult. She brought materials to do crafts with him, she was excellent with imaginative play, and she was very patient with our son. She is also prompt, responsible, and excellent at communicating with us ahead of time. I highly recommend Ashley as a sitter.

Ashley was such a God-send! My family flew into Providence from out of town for a wedding. We needed a sitter for my 10 month old, and obviously I was very worried about hiring someone I didn’t know out of state. But all her references highly recommended her, and I understand why! She was so sweet and attentive. Our son never got upset with her. I think he could sense she was a sweet caregiver. As a mom herself she understood all my concerns and sent regular updates throughout the night. Very much recommend her!!

Ashley has been an asset to our family. My children are always very excited when they know Ashley will be caring for them. She is very loving toward the children but also firm when she has to be. Ashely is also very reliable and prompt, she has never once been late or cancelled last minute. She is my #1 sitter!!
