Hey! I’m Mariana. I’m currently a junior in college and I’d love to have the chance to help your family out. I am 19 years old and I’ve been babysitting for about 5 years (I started freshman year in high school). I have experience working with infants from 3 months to children 11 years old. I am always a helping hand when it comes to homework help or if parents need help tidying up around the house. I also have experience dog-sitting and have worked with up to five dogs in one household at a time. I have endless love and offer endless cuddles to your furry companions and of course your children.

Anna B., Child Care in Sherman, CT 06784 with 10 years of paid experience

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!

Chrysa K., Child Care in Sherman, CT 06784 with 4 years of paid experience

I am a professional nanny with many years experience with infants, young children and teens. For many years I was a stay at home mom, but now my children are getting older and independent. I have a joyful home that I share which my husband almost 30 years and my son 21 in college, and my daughter 16. I loved being home which my children and aside from my affection for them, I have gained a wealth of knowledge in health and welfare. I am a very responsible loving and conscientious caregiver. The safety of children in my care is most important and essential. I have nurtured babies, feeding, diapering, bathing and all manner of care. I have safely driven children to and from school, activities and outings.I have kept complex household schedules, prepped and cooked delicious and nutritious meals, and cleaned up. I have helped out with pets, run errands, gone grocery shopping, laundry and light house keeping. Actives I enjoy doing with children are all about being physically active outdoors, hiking on trails, exploring nature, playing in creeks and going to the beach, pool, zoo, or just playing at the playground. It’s great fun making couch forts on rainy days and baking cookies. Being creative with crafts and painting works of art for quiet time activities. I try to encourage responsibility in children by having them help clean up their toys and seeing the value in being a good helper. I discourage screens and encourage books. I love reading to children and teaching them about the world. Mostly I strive for FUN! I have a special needs child and I have spent many years in specialized therapies. I have developed a very intuitive and sensitive nature in dealing whith my child’s disability. It has been the center of our lives 24/7. I understand the patience and nuance that is required when working and striving for important developmental milestones. I have completed two parent training courses at The Yale child Study Center, New Haven.

Leah S., Child Care in Sherman, CT 06784 with 9 years of paid experience

Hi! Over the years, I have developed a strong passion for working with children. For 7 years, I was a volunteer baton twirling coach; teaching girls ages 6-18 how to twirl and eventually bringing them to local and state competitions to compete. For three years I was employed as a Teaching Assistant in an Early Childhood Center, working with children nine months to five years of age. I have also worked in a therapeutic school, where I received ABA therapy training. Along with this, I have been babysitting since 2016 with children ages five months to thirteen years old. All of these experiences, along with tutoring, camp counseling and working in a research lab studying child language disorders, have helped to show me my love of working with children; leading me to pursuing a career as a Speech Language Pathologist. I just received my masters and am currently completing my clinical fellowship.

Azia C., Child Care in Sherman, CT 06784 with 10 years of paid experience

Hello parents! My name is Azia and I'm 28 years old. I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist and have over 10 years of experience working with and caring for children. The age ranges I've cared for is 2 months to 14 years old. When caring for younger children, I engage them in imaginative play, teach the the basics such as sight words, colors, numbers, etc., help them with emotion regulation, take them to the park, library, etc, read to them and anything else that made them happy/ the parents would like me to do with them. When caring for older children, I take them to their extracurricular activities, assist them with homework, offer them a listening ear (if they're interested), and anything else they may need help with. I have my own vehicle so transportation will never be an issue. I'm currently running my own private practice part time so looking for something part time or full time Friday and Saturday. I look forward to connecting with you :)

Alaina L., Child Care in Sherman, CT 06784 with 20 years of paid experience

When I was 12 years old I started helping my aunt with my little cousins and from there my experience with children grew. In high school I organized birthday parties for small children at a sports center. From there I worked at a day care teaching children ranging in age from infancy to school age, responsible for four to 10 children at a time. It was there that I fell in love with a family and became their nanny full time. At the time I started with them they had three children, ages 6 months, 2 and 4. With the family I was responsible for organizing their daily activities, driving them to preschool, activities, appointments, play dates, etc. Two years later I rose to the challenge as the family had another child. It was then that my organizational skills, my patience, and my passion for taking care of children expanded. I was not only a baby sitter for these children but became a member of their family. I describe myself as being energetic, compassionate, trustworthy, and dedicated.
