Find experienced child care providers in Newington, CT

Hi there! My name is Anisa, and I have a deep passion for working with children. Growing up in Jamaica and currently being a college student, I've had the joy of interacting with children from diverse backgrounds, enriching my understanding and approach to childcare. I love working with children because of the joy and energy they bring into the world. There's nothing more fulfilling than witnessing a child's curiosity and creativity blossom. I believe in creating a nurturing and stimulating environment where children feel safe and encouraged to explore and learn. I have significant experience in childcare, including babysitting and volunteering. During high school, I volunteered at a nursing home in Jamaica, where I developed essential skills in patience and compassion. Additionally, my academic pursuits have given me valuable insights into child development and effective communication.

Hi! My name is Justin and I’m an experienced caregiver with a strong background in early childhood education and professional management. I’m currently looking for part-time childcare opportunities, but I’m also open to discussing full-time positions if it’s the right fit! I’ve worked as both a lead classroom teacher and assistant teacher, caring for children as young as 6 weeks old up to 12 years. My experience includes everything from lesson planning and developmental tracking to potty training, safety protocols, and engaging children in meaningful play. I’ve always prioritized creating a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment where children can thrive. In addition to my childcare experience, I’ve held leadership roles in management — most recently as a General Manager — which has made me highly dependable, organized, and excellent at multitasking. These roles have strengthened my communication skills and given me the ability to stay calm under pressure — all of which I bring into my work with families and children. Parents I’ve worked with appreciate my warm personality, professionalism, and genuine love for kids. I believe in open communication, positive discipline, and building a trusting relationship with both children and parents. I’d love to chat more to see how I can support your family’s needs!

Hello! My name is Dhespina, and I babysit three children (ages 6, 11, and 14) every weekday morning, Monday through Friday. I started babysitting the kids in January 2025. My responsibilities include waking the children up for school, helping the youngest get dressed and brush his teeth, making sure they’ve had breakfast, packing their lunches, and getting all three to school on time. In the afternoons, I pick them up from school, take them to appointments when needed, and occasionally stay after school to babysit. I love babysitting because I genuinely enjoy being around children. It doesn’t feel like work to me, but something that comes naturally because of how much I enjoy it. ***CERTIFIED IN ADULT, CHILD AND INFANT, PEDIATRIC CPR/AED & FIRST AID***

I have a masters’ degree in Early Childhood Education from Wheelock College in Boston. I have taken early retirement from a local community college where I was a Professor of ECE for many years. I have a passion for young children and I am amazed and enlightened by their curiosity, creativity, and their constant energy. I love reading to children, process oriented art, singing and dancing and spending as much time outside as possible.
