Hello! I am a 33-year-old marine scientist who is pursuing a Master's degree at URI. My classes and research take place during regular school hours, allowing me to be free most evenings and weekends to babysit. I have over 10 years of nannying, babysitting, and teaching experience. My previous jobs include substitute teaching (K-8), leading students (K-12) in outdoor activities (including snorkeling, hiking, and kayaking), and working in the ocean conservation field. Additionally, I was a certified lifeguard for 12 years (includes CPR/First Aid). As a babysitter, I aim to be positive, compassionate, safety-oriented, and provide opportunities for the kids I am watching to have fun. I enjoy baking, reading, surfing, neighborhood walks (especially with my dog), and arts/crafts. As an aunt to five nieces and nephews under the age of 10, I feel confident taking care of babies and toddlers. If you think I would be a good fit for your family, let's connect! For an initial meet-up, I am happy to hop on a video or phone call to discuss your needs and preferences for a sitter. Thank you!

I’m a reliable, patient, and attentive sitter with experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to elementary-aged kids. I genuinely enjoy creating a calm, fun, and structured environment where kids feel safe, engaged, and comfortable being themselves. I’m great at balancing playtime, learning, and routines—whether that’s helping with homework, preparing snacks, or planning creative, screen-free activities. I’m available Monday–Friday and have flexible daytime hours, making me a great fit for families who need consistent, dependable care. Families describe me as organized, trustworthy, and easy to communicate with. I always aim to keep your home running smoothly while making sure your child is happy, supported, and well cared for.

I am a mother of one daughter and grandmother of two; I have worked as a professional nanny for many years after working as a legal assistant. I am originally from Washington State and lived in Hawaii as well. I moved to Rhode Island and Connecticut, respectively, in '98. I enjoy children much more than administrative work, hence, I turned to childcare. I have had many long-term commitments, newborns on-up, twin infants in the mix, and special-needs (autistic;) I am blessed to still see the local, former families. (Although I am "seasoned," in age, I encourage prospective families to view me as bringing a grandmotherly-presence to children - able-bodied, yet mature and nurturing, with no personal commitments to conflict with a family's needs.) I am CPR/First Aid/AED certified (a given,) have a squeaky-clean DMV/BCI check and a non-smoker. Infant care: bottle-feedings, solid foods - all down pat... I have a passion for the arts - Broadway show tunes, children love them! I focus on age-appropriate activities, have collected a wealth of craft project archives and I am well-versed in children's literature; I am a Play-Doh goddess, good for the little ones. I am an avid animal-lover and am more than happy to attend to pet care needs. I am open to any questions you may have and references are readily available.

Hello, I am Jacarra and I love what I do. I currently work at an elementary school and have also worked in daycare settings so I have experience with all ages. Some duties I’ve had over the years included ensuring a safe environment, prepare/serve meals, helped dress children (if needed) I really enjoy arts and crafts, playing outside and going to parks and beaches in the summer time! If they needed medicine, checked on allergies with parents, helped with homework and anything else needed. I currently clean houses so wouldn’t mind tidying up some. If you have any questions feel free to message me!

I have worked with children most of my life. I used to babysit for neighborhood children when I was growing up. I then went to college for Business Administration but also completed the requirements for teacher certification in Pre-K to Grade 2. I worked for several years with Head Start and then at a child development center (for more than 12 years) in several roles from teaching to administration. I am a mom of a college student and now have more time on my hands so I would like to get back to working with young children again.

I am currently a junior at UConn and I am majoring in Human Development and Family Sciences. I have 4 years of experience babysitting my younger cousins, and worked at a daycare last summer primarily as an infant and toddler teacher, but have experience with children up to 12 years old. I am comfortable caring for children of all ages. I am CPR + First Aid certified + Epi-Pen trained. I love creating a fun, engaging environment for children and watching them grow and develop is so rewarding to me! I pride myself on being patient, responsible, and dependable. I am looking for a part-time or full-time summer position (beginning of May-end of August) preferably in the Mystic area or the surrounding towns but am willing to travel farther for the right family. I have lots of flexibility to meet your needs. I would love the opportunity to support yours!

I have grown up taking care of younger siblings, cousins, and family friends and I love spending time with my nieces and nephew! I am very outgoing, and take pride in my work. I believe being on time and punctual is always important when working with families and children. I ended my job as a teachers assistant 4 years ago, since then I have been nannying for the same family. I am CPR certified. I am looking to assist local families in completing daily tasks and caring for their children.
