I started babysitting when I was 12 years old for neighborhood kids. Starting with newborn twins, and a family of five chlidren that ranged in age from newborn to ten years old. I stopped when I started my junior year in college and obtained a full time job. I also was very active in raising my niece from newborn up until this past year (I moved an hour away), and she just turned 8 years old. I am a trained baker/food prep worker so I am very willing to cook, clean, and of course bake with the kids! I love making cookies, cupcakes, reading, doing arts and crafts, and playing outside. I currently sit part time for a baby (6 months), but am still looking for more babysitting jobs.

I have worked with children most of my life. I used to babysit for neighborhood children when I was growing up. I then went to college for Business Administration but also completed the requirements for teacher certification in Pre-K to Grade 2. I worked for several years with Head Start and then at a child development center (for more than 12 years) in several roles from teaching to administration. I am a mom of a college student and now have more time on my hands so I would like to get back to working with young children again.

.Hi! My name is Cathy. I am a young-looking and young-acting retired special education teacher . I really miss the kids. I had been an honorary grandmother to a little girl and watched her one day a week from birth to kindergarten. I played with her both inside - playing board games/Legos/card games/Play-Doh, baked, did arts and crafts, watched Disney /educational videos and outside - going to the park,library, playground, children's museums, aquarium, beach. I have experience with infants and have taught grade ranges Kindergarten through high school. I am very friendly, responsible, caring, kind, cheerful, and hard-working. I have watched a 7 year old girl and 9 year old boy for almost a year until they moved , helping them with homework, playing outdoors, and going to parks, the zoo, movies, and kid's fun places. I have taken care of and nurtured a toddler from the time she was 3 months old until 2 years of age. We went on daily outings to the park, library, and children's museum. I have kept a daily journal for parents to enhance communication. I have had several dogs ( golden retrievers) and am pet-friendly. I am very hard-working, reliable, friendly, kind, supportive, and loyal.

I believe in the power of nature as a tool for education and love to spend time exploring outdoors, getting messy, and encouraging growth through play. My 40 years of experience include potty training, establishing sleep routines, and encouraging healthy relationships with food. I would describe my personality as silly & energetic and my caregiving style as responsive & respectful. I am kind, patient, and extremely reliable. I am seeking a long term position with 30 or more guaranteed hours that will begin in the fall of 2023. I am a Rhode Island native who now resides across the RI/CT border, and I am open to traveling approx. 20 miles . I am covid vaccinated, with a clean driving record and no criminal background. Prior to nannying, I ran a licensed home daycare in the State of Rhode Island. I have a lifetime of experience to share with you.

A little bit about me! I am a college student who is off for the semester (Wakefield, Rhode Island). As a CPR and First Aid-certified beach lifeguard, I am passionate about ensuring the well-being and safety of your children. I have my own transportation, a Toyota Forerunner.

Hello! I’m Tessa. I have worked with kids in various settings for about 15 years. I have nannied and babysat, I’ve worked in classrooms, in outdoor education, and was the director of a nature-based afterschool program. In these various settings I have worked with infants through elementary-school-age kids, occasionally with middle schoolers as well. My formal education in child development started in high school through the Child Development Program that led to preschool teacher certification in RI. I earned a dual bachelor’s in psychology and child studies, which involved work in an infant classroom in a daycare setting and led to a teacher certification for infants and toddlers in MA & CT. I also have a master’s degree in Ecopsychology. My favorite part of working with kids is learning their personalities and engaging in and supporting their interests. Through all of my roles, nannying has been my favorite setting to work with kids. I love the variety of activities we can explore together and the relationship I can build with kids and their families over time. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your family!

I love being a sitter because I truly enjoy supporting children as they grow, learn, and discover who they are. I have several years of experience babysitting, nannying, tutoring, and working in behavioral health with kids of all ages, including those with ADHD, autism, and sensory needs. Through K’s Koala Kare, I’ve helped families with routines, emotional regulation, homework, and safe, structured play. I’m CPR/First Aid trained and skilled in trauma-informed care, behavior management, crisis de-escalation, and creating calm, supportive environments. I combine my childcare experience with my background in psychology to provide intentional, patient, and high-quality care for every child.
