Oriah M., Child Care in York, ME 03909 with 7 years of paid experience

Hi my name is Oriah and I am very passionate about kids. I love kids of all ages but especially love babies. I have recently graduated from UNH with a degree in Human Development & Family Studies and a minor in Anthropology. I have an array of experiences working with children. I have newborn experience, and have had long term nanny positions with multiple families. I also have experience working at a preschool. I am patient, energetic and goofy. I love art and being creative as well as the outdoors. I think it is extremely important for children to develop a loving relationship with nature and the outdoors. I think the most important factor for a babysitter and a family is to have open communication. I hope you consider hiring me as your babysitter because I truly enjoy working with children. Please message me if you need help! I am currently looking for 25-30 hours a week this Spring/Summer

Oriah was wonderful. Prompt and communicative, asked thoughtful and thorough questions about our daughter's care. Our daughter took to her immediately and we felt very confident with her care while we were out. We would not hesitate to use Oriah again.

Rita did a fabulous job caring for our 7 month old while we were visiting Ogunquit, Maine. Rita communicated well with us leading up to and during the babysitting gig, and she was very playful and caring with our baby. We look forward to hiring Rita again for the next time we are visiting the area!

Aimee B., Child Care in York, ME 03909 with 3 years of paid experience

Hi there! My name is Aimee and I am 27 years old. I began my childcare experience working at Miss Joanna’s Daycare in Gilford. During my time there, I learned valuable lessons in multitasking and conflict resolution, but most importantly I learned the joy of working with children and helping them grow! I’ve worked babysitting and part time nanny jobs over the years, and am looking to return to it as I’ve been missing the value and connection that caring for children offers!

Jessa is excellent with kids of all ages. She is thoughtful and responsible, and she is so much fun to be around. She’s always willing to take the kids on adventures, and is never flustered, even when things are busy. She manages multiple ages and needs easily, and brings so much joy and great energy. Highly recommend.

Kathleen was wonderful in providing care to our infant and our friends' infant, while we were in town for a wedding. Kathleen was warm, communicative, and gave us full confidence to go out and enjoy our evenings with the babies well taken care of. Would definitely work with Kathleen again!
