Hello! My name is Katherine Clancy, and I'm 22, almost 23 years old living in North Yarmouth. I just finished my first year of graduate school for Communication Sciences and Disorders (Speech Pathology) and am looking for a summer job. I have many years of experience working with kids of all ages through coaching soccer, becoming a behavioral health professional, becoming a nanny for 2 families, nursing aid, and also a childcare associate. At my behavioral health professional job, I provided the students, ages 3-6, with support and direction, helping them get through their day, taught different types of learning, consisting of sight words, prepositions, peer play, following direction tasks, behavior management, coping skills, and appropriate communication. I also created a friendly, comfortable environment for them to feel welcomed and supported throughout their day. Similarly, working as a nanny for two families, I watched after and provided care for an infant and toddler, and provided care for a 3-month-old for the other family. I created age-appropriate activities for mental and physical stimulation. I also completed housekeeping duties of preparing milk/formula, cleaning dishes/bottles, laundry, and picking up around the house. As a soccer coach, I coached ages 3-15, around 8-15 kids, teaching soccer techniques, drills, foot skills, good sportsmanship, and teamwork. As a nursing aid, I worked in a health and rehabilitation center for older adults but I learned many valuable things that help my ability to be a great babysitter such as providing all residents with everyday care and support, making sure all their needs were met, creating a warm, safe environment for all residents to feel at home and comfortable by showing kindness, compassion, and individual service to each resident’s own needs, and providing all residents with bathing, grooming, dressing, and feeding as well as transferring and changing linens. During my first year of graduate school I worked with 6 clients of all different ages, providing supervised speech therapy. Specifically I provided therapy and support to individuals with communication disorders, evaluated clients' communication skills and identifying specific areas of need, developed individualized treatment goals and strategies, documented assessment findings and treatment progress and educated and supporting families about their child's communication needs. Overall I love working with kids and have lots of experience! Thanks!

Hi! I’m Matt — a dependable, positive, and patient sitter who loves helping kids learn, explore, and have fun in a safe and supportive environment. I’ve always enjoyed connecting with children and creating experiences that keep them engaged, whether that means reading stories, playing outside, or helping with creative projects. I have experience babysitting and raising over 15+ cousins and three nephews over the years. I love being a sitter because every day is different — kids have such a natural curiosity and sense of wonder. Being part of their growth, even in small ways, is incredibly rewarding. I take pride in being someone families can rely on and kids can truly look forward to spending time with. I have a reliable, safe car, I am great with housekeeping and organizing, love to cook and teach little one's kitchen safety, and am great at coming up with a variety of activities and entertainment beyond watching TV or playing with electronics.

I am a dedicated and compassionate caregiver with a strong background in education, childcare, and healthcare. I have one year of experience working as a substitute in an elementary school, where I supported students’ learning and assisted teachers in maintaining a positive classroom environment.

In addition to my work with children, I have valuable healthcare experience, including working in a hospital setting and providing care for elderly residents in a nursing home. I am a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) and currently advancing my skills and knowledge as a nursing student. I am passionate about helping others, committed to providing high-quality care, and driven to grow within the healthcare field.
