Loryn C., Child Care in Putnam, CT 06260 with 5 years of paid experience

My name is Loryn, and I absolutely love working with children! This is my 3rd year working as a social worker at an elementary school where I primarily work with preschool through 1st grade! In 2021, I graduated with my Master's degree in social work, specializing in school social work. I completed my graduate internship working with children (K-2 and 6-8) in a school setting. During that time, I gained experience working with students in both special education (i.e. autism, ADHD, social emotional needs) as well as in general education, both in person and remotely. I previously was employed as a lead teacher at an educational daycare. There I worked in multiple classes with students ranging from two to five years in age. Overall, I enjoy working with kids of various ages and am so thankful I get to do what I love. Feel free to message me with any questions you have, and I look forward to becoming a babysitter for you and your child!

Loryn has a great personality, reliable, and skilled in communicating with children at their developmental level. My son loved her and was ready to make her part of the family. He was comfortable, happy, and safe thru school pickups, home safety with pool, and getting him to extracurricular activities. She was super helpful when you are trying to balance 2 parents working, attentive to parent requests at any time, and good communicator always updating the parent. Thank you Loryn for your professionalism.

Evelyn was a great swim sitter! She helped us swimsit for two days and would show up early/on time which was great. I had a list of a general schedule (eating/reading/writing/playing/swimming) that she did a great job following. She works really well with younger children. She has experience working afterschool at the boys and girls club. She was also very patient with my two boys who can get very rowdy. She was a great help in the time we had with her. I highly recommend her without hesitation! I hope she might be available in the future.

We were incredibly happy with Morgan! She arrived on time, was patient and engaging with our two young children, and made sure they had a fun evening while following our routines perfectly. We felt completely comfortable leaving our kids in her care and would definitely book her again!

Mikayla P., Child Care in Putnam, CT 06260 with 10 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Mikayla, and I am a 29-year-old mother of two wonderful children, ages 12 and 9. I have over 10 years of professional childcare experience working with children ranging from newborns to 8 years old, including experience caring for multiple children at once. I love taking the children out to do activities and see places, doing arts and crafts and being creative, being outside in nature and reading! Currently, I work as a professional nanny. Prior to nannying, I worked as an infant and toddler teacher at a private childcare center and spent three years as an assistant teacher at a Head Start preschool program. My background in both classroom and in-home care has given me strong experience supporting children’s development through nurturing, engaging, and age-appropriate care. I am pursuing a degree in Early Childhood Education and actively continuing my coursework to further expand my knowledge and skills. I am certified in First Aid and CPR for infants through adults, fully vaccinated, and willing to complete a CORI/background check. I am passionate about creating a safe, supportive, and fun environment where children can learn, grow, and feel genuinely cared for. Additionally, I have worked all of my years in early childhood education in programs inspired by Reggio Emilia. The Reggio Emilia approach values the belief that children are strong, competent and capable citizens who are full of wonder and curiosity to learn. I have hundreds of hours of training (and certificates) on how to build emerging curriculum and implement child-led/play based learning. This means whatever your child is interested in, it’s my job to help them go the extra mile in being able to explore that interest(s). I am here to work collaboratively with your child(ren) to help them learn and explore the world around them.
