I am a recent graduate from the University, studied to be an art teacher. I am extremely creative and love to do art projects. Besides providing childcare, I have tutoring experience. I was one of the oldest in a family of 12 children, provided years of childcare for my siblings, neighbors and through online services. I have over 20 years of experience working with babies to adults. I also have extensive years of training working with children and young adults with disabilities. I currently do not have an update CPR certification, but I do have my own transportation, reliability, experience with pets, willing to do light household chores, I do not smoke or drink. I have not provided childcare since before COVID but I am fully vaccinated. I have an extremely flexible schedule during the summer but I am looking for either a couple of long shifts a week, a few short shifts a week, occasional days, vacations, or date nights. I also provide pet boarding and care at my location.

My name is Joni and I am a former Elementary Education student at the University of Maine. I have experience working directly with children in childcare settings as well as an educational background involving extensive research in children’s emotional and development goals. After three years of pursuing my B.S. in Elementary Education I have decided to step away from my academics for the time being. During this time I’d like to put my experience and knowledge to use in a babysitting and/or nannying position. I am comfortable working with children of all ages. I have experience in changing diapers, bottle feeding, preparing meals, cleaning, bathroom visits and play time. I look forward to hearing from you about your childcare needs :)

Hi there! My name is Olivia and I have 10+ years of experience caring for children of all ages. I grew up helping with my younger siblings, including my now 9-year-old sister, and I’ve always had a passion for working with kids. I also recently welcomed my own baby boy, so I fully understand the needs, routines, and patience that little ones require. I spent one year working in a family-owned in-home daycare, caring for children ranging from just a few months old to preschool-age. During that time, I assisted with daily routines, educational play, diaper changes, meal prep, naps, and creating a safe, nurturing environment for every child. I consider myself warm, responsible, and attentive. I love engaging children in age-appropriate activities, encouraging creativity, and supporting healthy development. Whether you need an extra pair of hands, occasional care, or a regular sitter, I’d love to support your family and provide a caring, reliable experience for your little ones. Looking forward to connecting!
