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!

Lindsey R., Child Care in Strafford, NH 03884 with 11 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Lindsey, and I am a mom of two—a 9-year-old son and a 7-year-old daughter. I currently work as a paraprofessional, which gives me availability during school vacations. If you are looking for childcare during these times, I would love to connect. I earned my degree in Early Childhood Education from Plymouth State University. With over eight years of experience as an educator and fifteen years of experience as a nanny, I am well prepared to provide safe, engaging, and nurturing care for your children. We enjoy spending time outdoors and going on fun, age-appropriate day adventures. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss in person how I can support your family’s childcare needs. Thank you for taking the time to review my profile! Warmly, Lindsey

Lindsey is absolutely amazing ! She recently started to babysit my 18 month daughter at her house during the week. Everyday I get a paper letting me know exactly what my daughter did for activities, what she ate , what time she ate her meals, her nap times and when she had wet diapers. Lindsey sends me multiple pictures everyday of my daughter and her two kiddos and they are always having tons of fun ! My daughter is always so happy there and today she didn't want to leave ! She is happy and always ready for bed and tired at bedtime so I know she is getting her energy out during the day ! Lindsey is also so laid back and understanding if I ever run late ! My husband and I are so lucky we found such an amazing family to care for our girl during our work days ! I highly recommended Lindsey !

Oriah M., Child Care in Strafford, NH 03884 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.

Robyn B., Child Care in Strafford, NH 03884 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.

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!

Eve H., Child Care in Strafford, NH 03884 with 5 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Eve, and I’m currently a sophomore at UNH. I am looking for a babysitting position. I’ve been working with kids since I was 15 at a summer camp and babysitting here and there in between, so I have lots of experience with kids of all ages. When I’m home during school breaks I work at a daycare so I would love to continue working with kids while at college! I also have plenty of experience house-sitting and pet-sitting, and I’m comfortable with all animals (no allergies!). I’m responsible, reliable, and I’d love to find a great family to work with while I’m at school!

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! 😀

Brianna F., Child Care in Strafford, NH 03884 with 3 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Brianna, and I am currently a 4th grade teacher at Chichester Central School. I am looking to continue working with children over the summer. I have experience babysitting and previously worked at a daycare, giving me experience with a wide range of ages. I also hold a Master’s degree in Elementary Education and Special Education. In addition to summer care, I am available during the school year for date nights and evening babysitting. I love engaging children in hands-on activities, such as crafts, games, and science experiments. I would also be happy to incorporate academic activities into our time together, if that is something your family is interested in. My goal is to create a fun, safe, and enriching environment for every child in my care! I look forward to connecting with you and your family!

Rhonda H., Child Care in Strafford, NH 03884 with 36 years of paid experience

Nurturing young minds is more than a job for me; it's my true passion. I've dedicated much of my career to providing care for children from infancy to age 5. I prefer to work with individual families at this stage of my career because it allows me to provide more individualized experiences. I have a literal trunkload of art:/science/math projects geared for any age. I have a self-designed BS in incorporating the arts into Early Childhood Education, a CDA, and am current in CPR and First Aid. I have a comprehensive portfolio to share with you. I create learning experiences that are engaging and fun. I'm reliable, patient, calm and imaginative. I love to get children outdoors to explore the natural world and assist in physical development. I look forward to speaking with you about the needs of your little one(s)!
