I am very energetic, love playing outdoors, reading, doing crafts, etc. In addition to being a mom myself..my experience includes being a nanny, working in daycare, a nursery school teacher, and working in a nursery at a health club.

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.

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!

Finding someone you trust to care for your children is one of the most important decisions a parent can make. My goal is to provide a safe, dependable, and nurturing environment where children feel supported, engaged, and excited to learn and have fun. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Childhood and Special Education and am currently pursuing my Master’s degree in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages). I currently work as a Teaching Assistant in a self-contained special education classroom in the White Plains City School District, where I support students with a wide range of learning, communication, and behavioral needs. Before working in the school setting, I spent several summers at my local day camp, where I worked my way up from counselor to Behavior Director. In that role, I supported campers with behavioral needs, collaborated with staff and families, helped implement behavior strategies, and worked to ensure every child had a safe, positive, and successful camp experience. In addition to my work in education, I have babysat for numerous families with children of all ages. Whether we’re playing outside, doing crafts, reading stories, helping with homework, or following bedtime routines, I strive to create a fun, engaging, and structured environment where children feel safe, supported, and cared for. I understand that every child is unique, and I take the time to learn each child’s personality, interests, and routines. My goal is to build trusting relationships with both children and parents by being patient, dependable, and attentive while creating meaningful experiences for the children in my care. As both an educator and caregiver, I understand the trust parents place in someone caring for their children. I take that responsibility seriously and would be honored to provide your family with reliable, compassionate, and high-quality care.

I have experience with infants/toddlers and a little bit of preschoolers. My favorite age is infant/toddlers because I love to watch them grow. I have 4 years experience with both age groups. I enjoy this job because of its positive, bright, and happy environment. Times may be harder than others but in the end i love working/taking care of children.

Hi my name is Marissa Mapes. I started child care when I was about 15 years old, I'll be 20 this year. I started off babysitting for family when my cousin had her two boys. I helped out as much as she needed me. Then I started babysitting neighbors animals and then moved and started child babysitting. She has special needs and soon started school. When I graduated highschool. That next school year I started college and also babysitting in the mornings for 5 kids ages 5-13. Putting them on the bus, making sure they ate and had lunch. Also making sure the one boy got his ADHD medication. I love those kids to death. I also would pick them up if they needed me. I have my own care and I am there whenever you need me, day or night.

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.

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!
