Hi, I'm Wubalem! but the kids just call me Wuby :) like Ruby with a W. I'd describe myself as empathetic, especially when it comes to understanding children. Kids, to me, are like puzzles - each one unique with their own quirks and interests. I love delving into their world, understanding what makes them tick, and guiding them through their journey of growth and discovery. Currently, I'm a college student at Penn State with hopes of becoming a pediatric occupational therapist. My experience with kids started at 16 when I worked as a lifeguard, and since then, I've been babysitting, doing a mix of full-time on and off for about three years. I believe it's crucial for parents, guardians, and caregivers to foster an environment where children feel comfortable asking questions and sharing their thoughts and feelings. This openness lays the foundation for strong, trusting relationships with the little ones in our lives. For fun I love to draw! Mostly capturing the essence of my family.

Hello! My name is amanda flanagan, I am a stay at home mom with a 1.5 year old and a 6 year old! I worked in daycare for about 3 years with all ages! I loved taking care of children and my job so much, my son just is super attached to me so he wouldn't thrive in daycare! I have tons of training in childcare and am cpr and first aid certified!

Hi Everyone! I have been working with children of all ages since 2002. Most of my experience has been working as a nanny and as a lead teacher in the childcare setting. In my free time I enjoy hiking, snowmobiling and spending time with my family. I am interested in a nanny share position.

I have been on and off babysitting for years of children of various ages, including being a live-in nanny for a few years. I engaged in various age-appropriate activities; I assisted in homeschooling, drove around multiple kids, and am very comfortable taking kids out of the house for various activities (with parental permission/request, of course). Throughout high school and the beginning of undergrad, I watched older kids (ages 8-12). Throughout undergrad, I was a nanny to twin girls (aged 2-5), and then was a live-in nanny to a little girl (age 1-3, who is now my godchild!). I just graduated law school, and have periodically babysat a 1 year old. I am currently studying for the bar exam, so although I have less free time nowadays, I perpetually miss interacting with and impacting young minds! Therefore, I can be flexible with scheduling for the time being, but also need to leave sufficient time for studying. Regarding pets - I grew up with a (relatively large) dog, and currently live on a property with numerous animals, so I’m happy to have pets around too! Any other questions feel free to contact me and ask! Reference(s) available upon request.

Hello, My name is Jessica I'm a young adult from the northern New England area! Ive grown up in a small town but with a big family, and have learned to become a caretaker along the way. I started babysitting and nannying early high school, doing date nights for my aunts and uncles, and becoming more regular. I then got a position as a daycare assistant working during summers, after school hours, vacations etc. I started in an infant age room, teaching, feeding, changing diapers, and scheduled nap times. I loved the infant age! Then I moved onto toddler/pre-school age, where I had a small classroom and would oversee the care of 3-5 children. After a couple months of working with that age group I moved into the school-age classroom with other teachers and assistants. Once I had gotten connected with families and siblings of the daycare, I had moved onto sticking with families and becoming a nanny. I had worked with two separate families from the daycare and cared for them for a little over two years. I had also become a member on Care.com to reach more families while finishing high school. Throughout nannying I had worked at a restaurant as a hostesses, busser, and food runner which gave me many skills I still use. I tried out Community College but it wasn't for me. I nannied another family with two children consistently for two and a half years before they went into preschool. I have assistant coached my local high school's cheerleading team as that is a passion of mine. And I currently and working at an Assisted Living home in New Hampshire, Its opened my eyes to a whole new level of caretaking and I'm learning so much through this experience its just not what I'd personally like to keep doing. Hope this gets you to know me a little, and please reach out for anything! Im looking forward to jump back into caretaking for children!

I recently got my G.E.D and I'd love to find some full-time work, while also doing something that I love. I have babysat in years past for friends/family, I am very responsible, and patient, and I am not yet, but will be getting CPR and First Aid certified. My main goal is to have fun while strictly maintaining the child's safety. I am new to professional child care, but I have babysat for multiple families, age range from <1 year- 11 years old. I've helped cook, do homework, and clean up/motivate them to clean up. I would love to create a fun, safe, and supportive enviornment where I too can learn new skills, and help your family in whatever ways I can. With 7 years of on and off babysitting behind me, I believe I can make a fun enviornment while still helping kids learn and grow. I am also a very artistic person, and love being outside, so finding activities to do shouldn't be an issue. I also have no issue helping with homework or helping to make sure chores get done. I'm available as a babysitter or nanny, and I have no issue with any pets! I'm a very caring, empathetic person and I am very excited to incorporate that into my profession.

I am a stay at home mom who only has grown kids at home now that only ask for food every once in a. While. My husband is a Senior Director of Sales for a petroleum company and has an office here but travels. All the time. My biggest baby is my 7 month old baby Great Dane. We have a 2 year old bulldog and tiny tiny 10 pound mix. I watch my three year old baby cousin during the school year but soon it will be her turn for preschool. I’ve watched her since she was 7 weeks old. My house is set up with toy room and bedrooms so ideally I would want to watch out of my home. Anyone is more than welcome to come see. Thank you for ready my Bio.
