Hello! I am a college graduate and preschool teacher. I am currently looking for occasional or one-time childcare jobs. I have about 5 years experience working with kids of all ages. I also have professional and educational experience working with kids with autism and other developmental disorders. I have a passion for working with children and can assure that my care would be exceptional and professional, but most importantly fun and enjoyable for your children! Please reach out with any questions.

We were visiting friends in Saco over the weekend and Amanda sat with our kids a couple of times. She was flexible (our times changed a few times), arrived on time, was a quick communicator, and most importantly, was totally unfazed by our rambunctious 5-year old. I'd strongly recommend her and hope to have her sit for us again when we are back in Maine!

Hello! I am an experienced caregiver who has participated in childcare for over 22 years as a nanny, babysitter, and in center based environments. I have experience with infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school aged kiddos; I have cared for children up to age 16. I have done numerous overnights for families, so I have experience with that! I put emphasis on learning through play, and, being a nature lover, try to find ways to incorporate nature in our activities. When with your child, we can sing, read, dance, do art projects, listen to music, go for walks, and take field trips to farms, the museum, playgrounds, and other fun places. I have taken child development classes, so I am pretty aware of where kids are developmentally. Respecting others is important to me, so I try to find teachable moments to convey this. I am first aid/CPR certified. I have reliable transportation, and consider myself to be very reliable as well. I am looking to work in Portland, or within 25 miles of it. I am also fully vaccinated and boosted.

We hired Jada to babysit our two-year-old daughter while we were in Portland for a family vacation. This was our first time using SitterCity to find a sitter away from home, and we were a bit nervous. Jada was fantastic and made us feel totally comfortable going out for a date. She was clearly very experienced and established a good rapport with our daughter very quickly. We will definitely reach out to Jada again next time we’re visiting Portland!

Hi! I recently graduated from Saint Joseph's College of Maine with a Bachelor's degree in Accounting and Finance. During my time in college, I was able to connect with and meet a bunch of families in need of helping take care of their kids! The ages ranged from as young as 1 year old to as old as 11 years old! With 3 years of experience, I was able to help kids out by helping them with meals, bus pick-ups, sports event drop-offs, etc. As a babysitter, I was super easygoing with the tasks the parents asked of me!

I love spending time with children because they bring so much innocence, wonder and curiosity to the world. I enjoy slowing down, being present, and encouraging creativity through art, music, crafts, pretend play and time outdoors. I believe childhood is a time to explore, learn, and feel safe, and I strive to create an environment where kids can do just that. I have over 13 years of experience caring for children of all ages through babysitting and professional caregiving. I also worked as a pediatric CNA, where I cared for children with special needs. That experience strengthened my patience, adaptability, and ability to provide attentive, compassionate care tailored to each child's unique needs. I am CPR certified and take safety seriously while making sure children have fun, stay engaged, and feel supported. I believe that one of my greatest strengths is how deeply I care for others- I bring that same compassion to every family I work with. Outside of childcare I consider myself an artist who loves music, community, learning new things, and spending time outdoors no matter the season. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy building lasting, trusting relationships with the families I work for. My goal is to be a dependable caring presence that both children and parents can feel comfortable with.

With going on 4 + years of experience, I think it’s safe to say that I love spending time with kids. I’m here to provide them with a safe and fun caregiver so you guys can go out and get things done! Kids are so silly and I love learning all about their individual personalities. I’ve done childcare in almost all aspects, I coached gymnastics for 3 years, was a camp counselor, preschool substitute teacher, and as of more recently I am a nanny for a lovely family. I love keeping busy and having my schedule filled which is why I’ve come on here to find some more families to connect with! I am CPR certified and have taken a multitude of childhood education coursework and certification classes which I would be happy to provide you with! Again, I’m here to make you feel comfortable and to provide your kids with a safe and happy environment. Let me know if you think that I would fit the job and I would be more than happy to connect with you about this position! Thank you.
