Hi my name is Gillian Lewis and I am very experienced with child care. I have worked in a daycare caring for infants, toddlers, and preschool ages. In addition, during the summer I am a head camp counselor working with children ranging from ages 4-12 years old. I am currently a college student majoring in Elementary Education at Roger Williams University in Bristol, Rhode Island. Therefore, I am looking for nannying/babysitting opportunities in that area during the school year. I am CPR, First Aid, and Medication certified and have been through lots of child care training from previous jobs.

Hello and thank you for reading my profile. I've been nannying for families for a total of 6 years now and it's something that I truly enjoy. I've had the opportunity to work and become apart of some great families throughout the years. Generally, the families that I've cared for have anywhere from 1-4 children but working at a preschool has prepared me to be responsible for up to 10 children under 6, at a time, in a classroom setting. I'm comfortable with caring for children of all ages. English is my first language but I do have an elementary understanding of Spanish. Hello and thank you for reading my profile. I've been nannying for families for a total of 10 years now and it's something that I truly enjoy. I've had the opportunity to work and become apart of some great families throughout the years. Working for so many families has helped me create and fine tune my own teaching and parenting philosophy. I recently had my own little one and I am hoping to find a family with a yearling/toddler around the same age, who follows a similar approach to child development and teaching method as I do to care for from my home.

I am a twin mom located in Riverside, RI. I work full time as a behavior analyst at a school for students with autism and behavioral challenges. Currently I am in the process of completing my second masters program in educational leadership, so I am hoping to babysit for primarily for date nights/evenings or overnights, since my husband is always available to stay home with our girls during that time. In addition to being a mom and working professionally with children, I have several years (15+) of experience babysitting children of all ages with a variety of needs. I have always loved engaging with children of all ages to help them learn and grow. In my free time, my interests include anything outdoors, hiking, gardening, and yoga. I love fury friends as well. My certifications include both CPR and First Aid, and I hold a spotless driving record. I would love to meet you and your family if you think I could be a good fit! References available upon request.

I have been a child care provider for over years. I started out at a childcare center and it was there that I was offered a Nanny position. And I never looked back. It has been so rewarding to be part of a family and care for children of all ages. And include them in mine with my son. Over the years I have taken child care certification courses, CPR courses and kept them updated. I believe my years of experience and love of children and what I do speaks for itself once you get to know me. Safety is my first rule of thumb. thank you
