Oriah M.
- 7 years paid experience
- 11 miles
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 30 hours a week this fall.

I became an early childhood educator because I want to leave the world better than I found it. More often than not, children are my best teachers because of how vulnerable, emotional and honest they are. I started working as a nanny in 2013 while I was taking classes at Middlesex Community College, and knew then that I wanted to work with primarily with young children. While earning my Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education and Care at Bridgewater State University I discovered and became passionate about mindfulness. Mindfulness is “focusing one's awareness on the present moment, while calmly acknowledging and accepting one's feelings, thoughts, and bodily sensations”. My goal is to use mindfulness to help raise more compassionate and empathetic people. I have developed and implemented mindfulness curriculum, teaching infants, toddlers and preschoolers at The Children's Center at Groton, Concord and Wellan Montessori Schools & as a private nanny for several families. I am currently looking for occasional & part-time babysitting/nannying gigs. Please reach out if you think I'd be a good fit to work with your family!

I love babysitting kids and pets because they're the best kind of company anyone can ask for. Kids are innocent, pure and can make you laugh with the things they do and the imagination they have. I currently work as a line Cook and a behavioral health professional. I work hard in the heat and stress of a kitchen while keeping a calm head. I also work with children and teenagers with neurodevelopmental disorders as a BHP, getting to know them and assisting them to achieve their life skills, and help manage behavior. I have many skills that I can bring to babysitting your kiddo! I like to get to learn about them first by observing or hearing about them from you parents or them, themselves! It gives me a chance to best understand how they tick, what they're limitations are and where I may notice some push back with chores, homework or such. I also can provide guidance to the older kids and teens with a path for independence, strong work ethic, cooking healthy foods and taking on leadership roles. And I know I didn't talk much about pets but I am very good with animals. I am stern but passionate about them. Big dogs do not scare me away so don't be afraid if you have a big dog! I'd love to chat more one on one to see what I can provide you and your family!

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!
