Find experienced child care providers in Springvale, ME

Hi! I’m Caroline 😊 I graduated from Keene State College in May 2022 with a degree in Early Childhood Education and Psychology. I bring a wide range of hands-on experience, including serving as a lead classroom teacher, working as a camp counselor and nanny, and completing extensive student teaching and field placements during college. Currently, I am a Lead Provider with TimberNook, where I support child-led, nature-based play and learning. I also work in wedding planning, which has strengthened my organization, communication, and attention to detail. I have a deep love for nature, creativity, and discovering new hobbies alongside children. I’m passionate about creating a nurturing, engaging environment where children feel supported, curious, and confident. I’m currently seeking occasional part-time work and would love the opportunity to support your family. I hope to connect with you soon!

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

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!

For the past 13 years I have been a babysitter for families as a mothers helper, babysitter and morning nanny. Currently, I am first aide and CPR certified. My goal when I babysit is to make your life easier. I have worked with children from newborn to school aged. Please feel free to contact me!

Hi parents! I'm a mother of 2 and grandmother of 2! I provide unlicensed weekday childcare in my home. I love what I do and have done it for 20+ years. The children I watch are treated as family. I'd love to talk with you and help your family with childcare!

Hi there! I am a nursing student at USM so I’m looking for some part time positions while I’m in my clinicals! I have been a nanny for the past two years for three boys, ages 5/6, 8/9, and 10/11! Before this I was a flag cheer coach (k-2) for three years and was an occasional babysitter around town as well! I’d love to chat more about your needs!

Hi! I’m currently 24 years old and I became babysitter certified at the age of 12 to be able to properly care for my younger cousins/siblings and I’ve been at it ever since. I also took an early childhood learning class in high school. I absolutely adore children and I care for every one as if they were my own. I have experience as a behavioral technician in a clinical setting working with children on the spectrum from ages 2-5. I have experience with infants, toddlers, elementary age & pre-teens. I also have experience with multiples. I love encouraging children to engage in activities that help them learn/grow but I also love bringing them places to relax and have fun or just simply coloring together and listening to music. I also like cooking and what not so meal prep is always on the table if you need it. I always respect parents boundaries/wishes and I adapt to whatever approach they prefer with anything. Most importantly; I will protect your child with my life, scouts honor!

Hi! My name is Denise, I am a 47 year old loving, hands-on mom of three (ages 26, 21, and 12) with many years of experience caring for children of all ages, especially infants and toddlers. I’m kind, patient, and compassionate. I genuinely enjoy getting down on the floor to play, read stories, and do arts and crafts. I also love to cook healthy, kid-friendly meals and spend time outside at parks, in the yard, or going for walks.

Hi! My name is Sarah and I teach 3rd grade in Lawrence, MA. Prior to teaching 3rd, I was a "Pod Teacher" for 12 students in Amesbury, MA from 2020-2021, and a graduate student while working as a 1st grade teacher from 2019-2020. Before my teaching career, I was a nanny and I absolutely loved it! The last family that I nannied for I met in February 2017 before graduating with a bachelors degree in Spanish from Saint Michael's College. The mother and father had a 15 month old daughter and a son on the way. I began nannying for them full time (Monday-Friday 7am-6pm, sometimes weekends, sometimes traveling on vacations with them). When I began my journey to become a teacher and pursue a graduate degree at Merrimack College in 2019, they fully supported me. This family has become a 2nd family to me, and I to them. I'm hoping to find a new family to work with this summer (June-August) while I'm not teaching. I hope to hear from you soon!
