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! Since graduating from Brandeis University in 2022. I've been a pre-k teacher in Honolulu, HI. My first babysitting gig was watching my younger sister for my mom growing up. I babysat for others throughout high school and worked as a nanny while in college. I am excited to transition back to working with a family (or families) on a more personalized level again as I look for a position here. I am currently pursuing my PhD in Occupational Therapy and am lucky enough to currently have a relatively flexible schedule upon moving to Maine in July!

I have several years of hands-on experience working with children across educational, healthcare, and caregiving settings. As a former assistant teacher at a preschool, I guided young learners through creative play, structured lessons, and daily routines, ensuring they felt safe, encouraged, and understood. I also work daily with children as a trained dental assistant, helping them feel comfortable during appointments and explaining procedures in a gentle, age-appropriate way. My experience as a dance teacher has also strengthened my patience, communication, and ability to connect with children of all personalities. I am a college student majoring in dental hygiene with a minor in public health, and I am seeking flexible part-time work that fits my academic schedule. I truly miss being around children and enjoy creating fun, safe, and engaging environments. Caring for kids has always brought me joy, and I would love to continue building meaningful experiences while supporting families in the community. I am responsible, warm, and reliable, and I genuinely love helping children learn, grow, and feel supported.

I am a Senior High School student. Having more than 3 nephews and helping my sisters with their babies, something I had to learn is how to take care of babies, toddlers and more. It was always an experience not just because I love little humans but because I got to comprehend one of the most beautiful experiences. Having more than 5 years of experience paired with CPR / AED / First-Aid Certificate understanding and comprehending that each kid is different, working with special kids and also learning from them is something that I have as a gift. I am open to prepare nutritious meals and snacks for children according to dietary needs and restrictions, offer creativity, joy and more if needed. I am also enthusiastic about long contract and ready to contribute. Ready to embrace new families.
