Are you looking for an occasional sitter? A summertime sitter? I’m a full time art teacher during the school year. I’m seeking occasional sitting positions and summer time sitting positions. Perhaps you need a date night or just need an occasional night out. I have CPR, first aid and epi pen training. I have raised my son who is 20 and a very mature young man. I also raised 2 step daughters who are now adults with children of their own. I had been a lifeguard when I was 16, of course all that training is expired, but I feel that those life experiences stay with you. I look forward to hearing from you. I am vaccinated for Covid-19

Emily D., Child Care in Sterling, MA 01564 with 18 years of paid experience

I’m Emily and I live in Southborough/Marlborough line, I have been an Infant/Toddler teacher at Bright Horizons and Nanny, on and off for the last 20 years. I love children. After becoming a caregiver to my mom who had AML & transplant, I was inspired to go back to school to purse my nursing degree. I graduated with my BSN RN in 2019 ( my previous undergrad is in psychology) . Through my clinicals and preceptorship I have worked in a multitude of areas along with working as a labor & delivery nurse. Pediatrics & geriatrics are my favorite populations. I had to take a break from inpatient nursing to help care for family and started some private duty nursing along with child care. I just began taking on care again in addition to some private duty nursing I do. I am a BLS provider ( Basic Life Support, a step up from CPR for medical providers). I currently take care of a 19 month old & a 7 year old, the prior family I worked for was with a set of twin boys. I started with them when they were 8weeks old, until 16 months old. I had to resign in 2018, when nursing school became extremely intense, requiring my full attention. Prior to nursing, my previous experience I was an Infant & toddler teacher at Bright Horizons for 6years, taking care of infants ages 6 weeks -15 months old. Bright horizons was a great center for infants. I was in charge of classroom of 7 infants that included creating a weekly curriculum for our babies while in our care, parent meetings every 3 months to review their portfolios, milestones, and new activities and exercises to incorporate day to day if needed. I love working with children of all ages, especially infants.There is nothing like a baby to bring you back to everything that is so precious in life. My friends' who have had babies have all named me the official 'Baby whisperer' as I have a way with babies in particular. I am very close with my Family & fur babies. I love spending time with them more than anything. I love being active outside as well. I look forward to connecting with you and your family.

I am the person your family will love. I love kids, I know everyone says that they do, but kids also love me meaning when you see them again they will be uplifted and revitalized with positive activities and self fullfillment and learning, Most honed skills I have are many years of marketing and sales, customer care and tutoring of young kids as old as high schoolers for SATs. I consider it a privilege to be part of your little one's life, and I take it seriously, Thank you in advance Naffy
