A little bit about me… I've been babysitting since i was a child. I use to be a daycare teacher and helped my mom in her home daycare. I have worked in 3 different daycares as a preschool teacher. One was an at home daycare. I now have a 6-year old. She comes with me all the time and is a great help and loves meeting new children. It makes it easier, as I homeschool her. I have plenty of references that I can furnish. Different from the ones, already in here. I also study Health and Nutrition and we are Vegan. Thank you. Look forward to connecting with great families!

Hello, my name is Alyssa and I am 28 years old. I have a bachelors in psychology and I just graduated with my teaching degree in Early Childhood. I have been working with school-aged children for 7 years. I worked at the YMCA for 5 years in the school-age childcare department. While working with the kids, I supervised them while they ate their snack, helped with homework, and did crafts with them. I am currently working in the New Bedford Public School System as a special education preschool teacher. I previously taught in Fall River Public Schools as a Special Education Teacher in a Kindergarten classroom! Not only do I have experience working with children in a formal setting, I also have experience working with younger children due to having the chance to babysit family members and family friends' children. Besides having my teaching license, I am also certified in OSHA, First Aid and CPR, along with having my babysitting certification assigned by American Red Cross.

Hi! My name is Morgan Correia, and I’m a 24-year old full time nanny and coach with a passion for working with kids of all ages. With four years of experience in babysitting and childcare, I understand the importance of creating a safe, fun, and engaging environment for children. As a nanny and coach, I bring patience, organization, and a positive attitude to everything I do.

I’m comfortable caring for children of different ages, assisting with homework, preparing meals (I LOVE to cook and bake), I love animals so your furry family is no problem, and I keep up with active little ones.

Hi! I'm Annabelle, a college student who is currently working toward my bachelor's degree in Nursing, with hopes of becoming a pediatric nurse in the future. Because I am a full time college student my availability would be after school hours, weekends, and school breaks! I've always loved working with children, and my experience reflects that. I've worked in a daycare caring for toddlers through school-age children, where I assisted with daily routines, learning activities, playtime, snacks, and maintaining a safe, positive environment. I also have experience working at my dance studio, helping younger dancers stay focused, learn new skills, and build confidence. I truly enjoy being a sitter because I love creating a fun atmosphere for children and being someone they feel comfortable with. I'm patient, responsible, and great with communication. I am certified in CPR/First Aid! My childcare background has taught me how to balance safety with fun, manage multiple tasks at once, and support kids at different stages. I'd love the opportunity to support your family and provide dependable, caring, and organized childcare!
