Hi everyone! I'm Anna, I've always loved caring for and educating children. I have my Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education. I grew up in a big family with 11 siblings and over 20 nieces and nephews!! So caring for children has been a natural part of my life. I've worked with kids of all ages, but most of my professional experience is with 12months to 5 years old. I student taught at Hill and Plain elementary for the preschool. I led activities ranging from story times, music, and movement, to various art and sensory projects. My focus was always pushing curiosity and of course giving them a safe space to do so! Some activities I really enjoy doing with children are getting outside and going to the playground and parks, the library, sensory play, teaching shapes/colors, arts and crafts, and how to navigate their big emotions. Outside of work I'm big into health/fitness, visiting friends and family, reading and trying new things like restaurants or hobbies!

We feel so fortunate to have met Anna. She's personable, responsible, and our kids adore her. She kept them busy every day, took them to get ice cream, the park, swimming, and even housesat for us while we were on vacation. I highly recommend Anna, and my kids do too!

Leanne took care of 7 kids while the parent went out for NYE for the first time in year. She did it all on 24 hours notice. I'd def. hire her again!

Sheri was absolutely amazing. We recently traveled to CT for a family wedding weekend and needed someone to watch our two small children during and after the rehearsal dinner and then on and off during the wedding day. After messaging a bit on the SitterCity app, she took the initiative to call me a week and a half before the wedding to discuss my needs for the weekend and learn more about the kids. Her kind and responsible manner was immediately evident on the phone. She was prompt (even early) both days and came prepared with loads of toys and activities for the kids. The kids immediately warmed up to her and seemed to enjoy the time they spent with her. Sheri even helped out during the wedding ceremony - when my son started to fuss, she just scooped him up and took him for a walk. Sheri just seemed to know how to help. My husband and I didn’t worry for a minute while our kids were in her care. I wish I could find someone just like her in my hometown of ATL! Definitely hire her, you won’t regret it.

Happy Summer Mamas! My name is Jacqueline, I’m a stay at home mom to a funny & feral toddler. Prior to being a stay at home mom, I nannied for a local family for almost 5 years. My duties included transportation to and from school, meal prep for children and occasionally parents, light house work and a bit of household schedule balancing. I am a fun, loving and creative nanny who loves to just let kids be kids. This summer I am hoping to find a few set of parents looking for a date night, emergency, last minute sitter along with a part time nanny position. I would love to find a family looking for help a few days a week that would be open to my son tagging along! I am located in New Milford & willing to travel to surrounding towns

Hi! My name is Lexi, and I'm 24 years old. I am currently in school at Naugatuck Valley community college. I have around 4 years experience working with children and genuinely love helping them learn, play, and grow. I started babysitting for families at my church and have continued caring for children of different ages over the years. I also worked at an after-school care program and a summer camp, where I supervised and engaged with children across a wide range of age groups. These experiences have helped me become patient, adaptable, and confident in caring for children with different personalities and needs. I'm responsible, dependable, and always strive to create a fun, safe, and positive environment for every child!
