Hello! My names Madelyn, Maddy for short. I’ve worked with children throughout my entire life and have always loved babysitting. I worked prior as a pediatric CNA in NH and just moved to the area.

Hello! My name is Allison, and I’m a recent college graduate looking for part-time child care work. Through my undergraduate experience studying education and anthropology, I developed a deep appreciation for connection and communication with all people- especially kids! As a part of my degree program, I have completed significant coursework in human development, with a focus on effective learning environments and holistic education. Outside of the classroom, I have worked as a substitute teacher in both New Hampshire and Connecticut, delivering lesson plans and filling in for absent teachers/educational professionals across the school day. For the past 5 years, I have worked at a summer camp in Amherst, NH, moving into a supervisory position in 2024. In addition to running daily camp activities through the summer, my role includes managing a staff of 6 full-time counselors, providing behavioral management support/redirection, and coordinating field trips to many exciting places across the state. As an environmental-education facility, I have also assisted in teaching lessons to school groups, as well as hosting site events and workshops. Through my work, I have maintained an active CPR, AED, and FirstAid certification. In my spare time, I love being outside and interacting with the natural world and all that it has to offer. I have worked in sustainability for the past several years, focusing on implementing educational programming for PK-aged students about the environment. I love running, hiking, climbing, and a plethora of additional activities that allow me to experience the incredible natural world. I have found joy in introducing these activities and encouraging a sustained interest in being outside with kids of all ages. In addition to outdoor activity, I am a craft/art enthusiast and am always exploring new creative hobbies to pursue and integrate into my teaching. I also enjoy reading, cooking, drawing, and crocheting! My child-care philosophy centers around getting to know the family that I’m working with in a meaningful way, and catering my interests to those of the children that I’m working with. I believe in consistent communication. I will always keep you updated on how your child (-ren) is doing, and the fun things that we are up to! It’s such a privilege to connect with a child and provide care during formative years, and I hope that you will reach out if I seem like a good fit! All the best! -Allison

I continued to volunteer working with children ages 3-6 until I was 16. When I was 15, I worked at a grocery store for a few months and during that time I came to the conclusion that working with children is what I want to do for the rest of my life. After I left that job, I promised myself that I would never work a job I wasn't passionate about ever again. When I turned 16, I began working at a before and after school program as well as a summer camp (ages 5-14) until I was 20. I also worked one summer at an outdoor summer camp as well. I graduated college with a degree in elementary education in 2023 and have been working as a first grade teacher. Through these experiences, I have gained extensive knowledge and developed essential skills that help me create positive interactions with the children I care for.

I also have about 6 years experience of babysitting children ages 3 months to 10 years old. I find it incredibly rewarding to watch children grow and learn. I believe it's truly important to create a warm and trusting bond with a child, so they always feel safe, loved, and cared for. My approach is patient and calm, and I love engaging kids with creative activities. I absolutely love spending time outside! I prioritize clear communication with you, whether through updates at pickup, texts, or your preferred method.

I have been in childcare for a few years now, but I love babysitting on the side! I’d ideally love to become a nanny, but haven’t been able to fully leave the childcare world yet. I have always been around kids and love to be around them. I have a few years of schooling where I just got my Lead certification within Early Ed and am going for my degree!!
