Hi families! My name is Claudia and I live in midcoast Maine. I have a degree in Early Childhood Ed and Visual arts, and have been an after school art teacher teaching k-5 and a substitute teacher for this past year. I have 10 years experience in childcare including nannying, babysitting, teaching, daycare work, with kids from newborns-11 years old. I love making art with kids, crafts are my speciality and I'm a big believer in the benefits art has to all other developmental areas. I love playing games, reading together, music and song, taking walks into the community for libraries, parks, or playgrounds, and I'm excited to do all of this and more with your family!

Being a sitter lets me support children as they grow, explore, and learn through play, which is something that genuinely makes me happy. I love building trusting relationships where kids feel safe, understood, and excited to be themselves. I have hands-on experience as a student teacher at Community Preschool, actively supervising children ages 2½–5, guiding conflict resolution, and planning engaging activities. I also volunteer with Big Brothers Big Sisters as a big sister, providing one-on-one mentoring, comfort, and care. My Early Childhood Education program at Region 10 prepared me to work professionally with children ages 0–8, and I hold CPR certification, MRTQ 6-hour Health and Safety Training, and DHHS Mandated Reporter training. Families can count on my strong communication, organization, problem-solving, and conflict-resolution skills to keep their children safe, supported, and having fun.

I love my profession because children have been my life, from raising my own two and 20 years as a teacher. I'm warm, friendly, organized, fun, and sensitive to various personalities and needs. Fingerprinted, background checked, certified Infant/Child CPR/1st aid, member of nanny organizations, and I have references from several families I have "nannied!" My specialty is birth to 12 mo. but have enjoyed all ages. My hourly rate is $24-25 for 1 child depending on what is needed, $27 for 2 children, $20-25 for single events. Included: simple meal prep for the baby, dishes, tidying toys at day's end, minimal pet care. Nannying is my sole income, so like a daycare, I am paid a weekly salary to hold that timeslot for the duration of the assignment. I am currently available some Fridays and weekends, and in May my schedule will open up more! I typically look for 4 8-hr days but can flex. Please reach out with any questions! I'd love to talk with you!
