Hello Families! I am a conscious babysitter/nanny that loves to engage! My heart is full when I have a connection with both the parents and the children that I'm working with.

I have been in childcare my entire life. I moved to NYC to be a nanny after high school and have has multiple nanny jobs. I also have taken care of children in my home while being a stay at home mom. I own a disc golf course. My children are all teenagers and in high school now and I miss being around and taking care of younger kids. I would say that infants and toddlers are my favorite but I also really enjoy all of the younger ages.

As a college graduate from Endicott College with a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science with minors in Nutrition and Wellness, and Psychology, I am currently looking for a part-time job post-graduation in the babysitting/nannying field as I have previous experience in this field. I am living in Topsham, ME and have my own car for transportation. I have been babysitting since I was 16-17 years old and have been certified through the Red Cross to do so since I was 12 years old. The ages of the children have ranged from infants to 11-12 years old. It has been a very meaningful and valuable experience for me as I want to have my own family someday. Through Endicott’s academic program, I completed Risk Assessment and Special Population classes where I learned about first aid and working with children. Last year I was a nanny for a 3-year-old boy and was responsible for transportation to and from school/activities, snack and meal prep, laundry and housekeeping, potty training, nap time, and playtime I am an animal lover as well, and have cats of my own. I love sports, movies, and music.

Hi! I’m a CPR-certified babysitter with experience with kids of all ages. I’m also a mom to a 3-month-old, so your child would be cared for alongside my baby in a safe, loving environment. I’m patient, attentive, and understand how important trust is when choosing childcare. I’d love to chat and see if we’re a good a good fit!

Hello!! My name is Izzy and I am currently in college for Psychology and Education! For the past three summers I have worked at the Brunswick Rec Department for their summer camp as a camp counselor and as an Assistant Supervisor. I have also spent the last four years going to Kate Furbish Elementary School and helping out with kids who have special needs. I have done babysitting before and I am looking for a summer nanny or babysitting job while i’m home in Maine! I love the outdoors and I am a big fan of hiking! I also love animals and I have volunteered at Midcoast Humane Society in the past! I love kids and want to do some kind of job in a school in the future!

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!

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!

Hello parents! I am a 26 year-old single mom with plenty of childcare experience prior to becoming a parent myself. As the oldest of 6, I grew up caring for my younger siblings, and then later went on to begin babysitting kids in the neighborhood, starting at 12 years-old. I continued to babysit and pick up nannying gigs (ages ranging from 8mo-12yrs), until I went into the food industry and housekeeping the last few years. I’m looking for a part-time gig to fill in a couple weekdays I’m currently not working, ideally something I could work around my child’s school schedule, and potentially could bring them along on occasion when school is out. I have reliable transportation and a clean driving record, and I’m willing to drive kids to and from school/extracurriculars. I can offer homework help when needed, though I admit I’m not great at math! Housekeeping for additional pay as well. Looking forward to hearing from you, and being back in the child care industry!

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.

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!
