Oriah M., Child Care in Dover, NH 03820 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.

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!

Caroline is fantastic! Extremely warm, kind and calm. I instantly felt at ease with leaving my four month old with her on our beach vacation for several nights out.

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.

Robyn B., Child Care in Dover, NH 03820 with 9 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Robyn, and I recently graduated with my master’s degree in social work! I’m passionate about working with children and eager to bring that passion into a professional setting to make a meaningful difference. Currently, I am looking for occasional or part-time childcare opportunities, and I’m highly flexible to accommodate the needs of families. With over ten years of diverse childcare experience, I’ve worked in a range of settings, from caring for multiple children, including infants and children with special needs, to handling overnight care and managing sick days. In my previous role at a childcare facility, I thrived in caring for groups of 30+ children, but I’m now seeking smaller-scale opportunities where I can foster more personal connections with the families and children I support. I am fully COVID-19 vaccinated and First-Aid certified, prioritizing a safe, nurturing, and fun environment in every setting. In addition to my love for working with children, I am also focused on earning money to support my student loans. I’m determined to be adaptable and find solutions that work for each family, so if you’re in need of some extra help, I would love to work together to make things easier for you!

Robyn were helping us for 2 weeks with very strict schedule. She was always on time and went above and beyond caring for our kids and keeping them entertained. They both loved her. We will definitely look for her help again once we're in Lake Wales next time.

I live in South Berwick, Maine. I worked full time at a childcare in York for the past 11 years. I just recently switched jobs to become a nanny. I currently work part time for two different families. Starting in mid November I will have availability for nannying two days a week. I have no children myself, but I love kids and I love spending time with them. I have been working with children for about 15 years both as a babysitter and in a child care setting. I have worked with children between the ages of 6 weeks and 12 years. I am both CPR and First Aid certified. I also have my CDA.

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!

Sagia was nothing short of amazing! Highly recommend. She was able jump right in when my childcare fell through and keep my two year old entertained while I worked from home. My daughter had separation anxiety at first knowing I was in the next room but Sagia was able to calm her. By the end she was happy as a clam and giving Sagia hugs!

Although I enjoy tending to children the most, I can also do some light housekeeping, nanny, pet watch, meal plan, and travel wherever I'm needed. If you need your kids watched for a few hours for a date night or something more regular like after school pick ups when school starts again, I can be that person! 😀
