Ashley T.

We absolutely love Ashley! She loves spending time with kids and truly connecting with them. My kids adore her. When she babysat for us regularly, she was very communicative about her schedule and never missed a shift without providing advance explanation. She is very responsible, and we always felt safe leaving our kids in her care.

Laura C., Child Care in Ballston Spa, NY 12020 with 15 years of paid experience

A Little About Me Hi there! I’m an experienced, fully vaccinated nanny who loves connecting with children and encouraging each one’s unique personality. I’m patient, kind, and attentive, with years of experience caring for children of all ages—including those with special needs. I’m organized, reliable, and able to manage a household smoothly, whether multitasking independently or anticipating what needs to be done. I’m a non-smoker, an excellent driver and swimmer, and a retired criminal justice professional with a college degree. I’m happy to submit to a full background check. I’ve also held household manager roles, so I understand how a home should run. I enjoy cooking, can help with light housekeeping, and provide pet care if needed. As a mom of two grown children, I know how important stability, consistency, and respect for your family’s privacy are. I believe communication is key and would love the chance to chat with you about your family’s needs. Please reach out if you’d like to connect—I’d be happy to talk!

Petra G., Child Care in Ballston Spa, NY 12020 with 5 years of paid experience

I love being a sitter because I get a chance to connect with young children/adults and influence them the way others have influenced me. I have been paid for childcare for about 5 years, gaining experience with all ages of children from as young as 5 months old to as old as 14. Additionally, I have experience in sports coaching both as an alpine ski racing coach at Gore Mountain's NYSEF program and through the youth OSAA Field Hockey Program, where I served as the head 5th-6th coach my junior and senior years of high school. I also have some experience with children with special needs. I grew up showing cows at my local county fair, so I am comfortable dealing with any pets; no animal is too big! I also have a driver's license and my own car. I am a first-year at St. Lawrence University, expected to graduate in 2029 with a double major in biology and English. I intend to acquire a master's in education and be a high school-level biology or English teacher. At St. Lawrence I am a member of several clubs and a part of the St. Lawrence Division 3 field hockey team, all while maintaining a 3.76 GPA.
