Claudia B., Child Care in Durham, ME 04222 with 10 years of paid experience

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!

Hi I am Jada, I’m an 18-year-old CNA and I’m about to start nursing school this fall! I’ve grown up in a big family with four siblings, so I’m used to a fast-paced house and helping out with whatever is needed. I’m CPR and First Aid certified and have experience working with people of all ages—from little kids to seniors. I’m super passionate about healthcare and I love being able to help people feel comfortable and cared for. I’m hardworking, reliable, and ready to jump in!"

Joann M., Child Care in Durham, ME 04222 with 35 years of paid experience

I am a childcare professional with a passion for caring for children. I have a degree in early childhood education and have dedicated the last 30+ years to working with children. I have experience with children in many settings, including childcare centers, preschools, and home care, as well as having raised two children of my own. I have many years of nanny experience, working with children from infancy through school age. I especially love spending time with and caring for infants and toddlers. There is nothing I find more rewarding than getting to know a child at the beginning of their young life and being a part of helping them grow and develop. I have a quiet, calm, caring and confident way with children that I believe puts both children and parents at ease. I would love to make the time your child must spend away from you fun, loving, engaging and educational. I have recently moved back to Maine and am looking for a part time nanny job in the Gray/Raymond area.

Evelyn L., Child Care in Durham, ME 04222 with 2 years of paid experience

Hi! Im Evelyn, a fun, sweet, and caring sitter. I have worked with children since I could remember helping out with my siblings and it has stuck since! I went to a tech school in highschool for two years of an Early Childhood Education course, working with all kinds of kiddos. I love to see the different personalities in every child! I can work with any age needed from infant to pre-teen! I have been employed at two different childcare facilities, currently still working at one for two years. I am CPR and First aid certified, also having a car and license for about 3 years. I am not shy of pets and I will help take care of them and any household chores you need help with. I do lots of pet-sitting and babysitting in my free time. I always love to do fun crafts and activities with kiddos at work and while sitting. I love working with children and always make it fun for them and me, while leaving a clean house to come back to. Feel free to reach out for references or to set up a call/meeting!

Alexus M., Child Care in Durham, ME 04222 with 3 years of paid experience

Hello families! I'm thrilled to have the opportunity to introduce myself. With a background in healthcare, I've had the privilege of caring for individuals across different age groups, from seniors to younger clients with intellectual disabilities. Prior to this, I spent my formative years watching over infants, a role I still cherish today, albeit without the state paycheck. What sets me apart is my unwavering dedication to my role as a sitter. I don't just see this as a job; I see it as a responsibility that can profoundly impact someone's life. I take great pride in providing compassionate care and ensuring the safety and well-being of those under my watch. It's not just about earning income for me; it's about making a positive difference in someone's life journey. I'm excited about the opportunity to bring my experience, passion, and commitment to your family. Let's create a nurturing and supportive environment together!

Sarah M., Child Care in Durham, ME 04222 with 2 years of paid experience

Hi there! My name is Sarah, and I am a 21 year old full-time daycare teacher with a passion for taking care of and helping educate kids of all ages! I have been working at my current daycare for a little over a year, but I also have quite a bit experience babysitting for close friends/family. I’m also currently looking forward to working towards an associates in General Education in the Fall, and in the meantime would like to widen my experiences through helping care for children in my off time, as well. My availability is mostly in the evenings during the week (6:30 PM or later), and all day and into the evening during the weekends! Additionally, I do also have a First Aid and CPR certification for all ages (infants and toddlers included) and have experience in working under stressful situations, as well as taking care of ten or more children at once with assistance (or five children at once by myself). My primary classroom consists mostly of toddlers aged 1.5-2.5 years old, but my position often requires covering other classrooms which span from infants all the way to school-age kids! I look forward to working with you, and hopefully making the time spent with your child as fun as possible while keeping them safe in the process! Thank you so much for reading! :)
