"I’d describe my babysitting style as a balance of fun and structure. My first priority is always safety and keeping a calm, level head, even during tantrums. But I also want the kids to look forward to my visits, so I always come ready with age-appropriate activities, books, and games. I also know how important routines are to parents, so I make sure homework, chores, and bedtimes are strictly followed

I currently work as a nanny. I have several years experience as a professional nanny, five years experience as a licensed family daycare provider, and I have been babysitting since I was twelve. I am CPR and First Aid certified.

Hi! I’m Stephanie 🙂 I know the day-to-day rush can be stressful and difficult to the parents that’s why I can help you and your family. I have experience to clean house, make meals, take of kids, by the way I have a lot of patience with kids.

Hi! I’m a mom to a 5-year-old boy and have been running my own home daycare for the past three years. I’ve always enjoyed being around kids, and caring for children is something that comes naturally to me. Through my daycare, I’ve gained experience caring for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers with all kinds of personalities and needs. I’m comfortable with everything from bottles and diaper changes to meals, activities, and bedtime routines. I enjoy getting to know each child and finding what works best for them. I’m currently looking for part-time evening childcare opportunities, preferably with a family who needs consistent help during the week. I’m also available for occasional weekend evenings. I know how important it is to find someone you feel comfortable leaving your children with, and I’d love to be that person for another family!

Hi! I’m Melissa, a middle school teacher offering after-school childcare. I’m responsible, caring, and experienced with children of all ages, including children with special needs. I’m happy to help with homework, activities, dinner, and evening routines!

Hi! I’m Emme. I recently left my role in early intervention after many years to have more flexibility to return to school. During this time I’ve been continuing to support families along the way with all sorts of needs from respite care to NICU-home transition, even some babysitting — and I’m loving it all! Families have described me as nurturing, resourceful, and playful. I am not one to sit around, you’ll see me jump right in to play with the kiddos, and love getting outside. My background in development and many years in EI has given me not only strategies to work with every kind of kiddo, but ideas for activities, games, as well as an excitement for it. Hope to hear from you soon!

I've worked in child care for at least 10 years, both as a sitter/nanny and in a child care setting. Right now I am a stay at home mom of 2. Ages 8 and 1.5. My goal is to earn my family some additional income to help us manage during this difficult time as well as help out families who need to work while their child does remote learning. Or to take on another small child during the day. I'm open to a family with two children or less. I'm a caring, compassionate and trustworthy care giver. I prefer to watch children in my own home as my eldest will be remote learning and we plan to have a nice learning environment set up for her to succeed. Remote learning can be tough, and with the lack of socialization it's even harder. I have hopes that having someone else around might encourage both to do their best! If this is something that could work for you please do not hesitate to reach out! Keep in mind I am also open to children from infant-4 as well as school age! I look forward to hearing from you!
