Hello! My name is Annie and one of my passions in life is being an educator, especially in an early educational setting with a focus on all things related to nature and our beautiful planet. Being an educator is important to me and fulfills my existence because I just love life so much, I love people, I love animals, I love this earth and the best way I know to show my gratitude is by nurturing and educating humans at the start of their beautiful journey in this life. I feel that part of what makes me a great child care provider and educator is that I have a ton of love to give, I have extreme patience, an open mind, and I love to have fun (I’ll always be a kid at heart). I have lots of experience with children and in many different aspects; I have been a full time nanny, ran an elementary age home school group for farm children, worked for years as a full time substitute teacher in a middle/high school for performing arts students, I have a college degree in early education, I worked for 5 years as a care provider at a daycare working with children from infants to pre-K as a lead teacher, and I have spent the past 2 years as a stay at home mom!! I graduated with high honors from Holyoke Community College where I obtained my associates degree in early education and am a member of Phi Theta Kappa Honors Society. I am EEC certified as a lead teacher in both infants/toddler as well as preschool/pre-k and I am CPR and first aid certified. Part of my skill set includes working in others homes, not only working with children of all ages but animals as well, and doing house cleaning and gardening/farm work too! I worked for a number of years on a small family owned farm where I spent my days doing hard manual farm labor, spending time with the children educating, playing, and going on fun outings, and doing any and all housework the family needed. I've also worked for a number of years as a full-time professional dog walker in Boston where I not only cared for 25 dogs but did a ton of housesitting and dog sitting as well! I am currently looking to fill my evenings with some work outside the home and want nothing more than to get back into childcare. I don't plan to go back into teaching full time until my daughter is of school age so I figured this avenue would be a great start! Thank you for taking the time and energy to read my bio, wishing you the best!

Hello I’m Victoria I’ve always loved children and worked well with them. I started helping family with sitting when I was as young as 12. I have experience watching children as young as newborn. I previously worked in a gym for their childcare section. I also have sitted for local families and surrounding towns. I’m a mother of 2. (Almost a 4 yr old boy and a 1.5 year old girl) I have a clean driving record and a safe reliable SUV. I’m CPR certified. I’m also fully vaccinated for Covid and stay safe and clean due to my health and my babies health. When babysitting for a child or children my belief is I’m coming into your home and your child’s space where they’re comfortable so I don’t believe in yelling or raising my voice. If a child acts up in my care if the parent is ok with my reasoning I prefer to tell the child what they’re doing isn’t ok and what can we do to be more positive. Since your home is your child’s comfort place I’ll do my best to not over step boundaries.

I am passionate about working with children because I find immense joy in supporting their growth and development. My journey began as a babysitter at just 12 years old, and I've since worked with both preschoolers and school-aged children in various settings. Currently, I am a preschool and school-age teacher, but I am looking to transition back to babysitting. As I near the completion of my bachelor’s degree in Early Education, I’m excited about returning to babysitting. I look forward to creating a fun and supportive environment where children can enjoy their time and feel cared for. I as well have had a background check done and can be provided!
