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!

Jada W., Child Care in Saco, ME 04072 with 20 years of paid experience

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!

Alexandra  S., Child Care in Saco, ME 04072 with 30 years of paid experience

Hello, My name is Alexandra, I’m 51 a semi retired masters level social worker. I have about 30+ years of experience. focused jobs and be able to work with kids in a more organic way. I am known to be silly, conscientious, reliable and very compassionate. I truly enjoy being with kids of all ages and find it meaningful to help them experience the world in thoughtful, creative, playful and secure ways. I try to make things seem like an adventure and address conflicts as opportunities for growth. I am also very good with infants and have experience with sleep training. I see my job as being both a coach and a mama bear. If anything does arise I am extremely well trained, calm and focused in an emergency. I’ve been CPR and First Aid trained for over 30 years. As a parent and family social worker I have learned many effective behavior management techniques for kids ages birth to 100. I believe it's extremely important to provide each family the specific care they want and to honor the norms, needs and values of the household.The most important thing to know about me as a childcare provider is that I will take care of your children, pets and household the way you want me to. I believe taking responsibility for the well-being of any child means you always put them first. Choosing the right person to care for your child and trust them in your home is the most important decisions a person can make. I welcome any and all kinds of questions or requests and can make myself available for online interviews at your convenience. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, Alexandra Sagov MSW

Lorelei H., Child Care in Saco, ME 04072 with 15 years of paid experience

Hi! I’m Lorelei. I just moved back to Maine after spending the past three years living in Japan. Right now, I’m teaching art at the Middle School of the Kennebunks and working toward my master’s degree in Art Education. I’ve worked with kids of all ages, from four months to teenagers. I’ve been a nanny for several families and have also done lots of date night and event babysitting. Over the years, I’ve worked in several daycare settings, special education classrooms, and directed summer camps. I love working with kids and bringing creativity into everything I do. I’m currently available for occasional babysitting opportunities and am open to some more regular hours during the summer before the school year begins. I’m reliable, patient, and always happy to jump into crafts, games, or anything your kids are into. Feel free to reach out if you’d like to chat or see if it’s a good fit!

Lorelei is fantastic. She watched our kiddos during a family vacation to Maine. She was responsive, professional, and great with our two high-energy five-year-old boys.

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 do nanny most days so check in with me! 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.
