Hello Families, I am updated on all Vaccinations. *I'm sorry I will not provide any families transportation.* 💖 I can accommodate children with special needs. As I have years experience caring for four individual families who have an autistic child ages from 2yrs-12yrs old. Also have experience with children with ADD and separation anxiety. No matter the age I enjoy being apart of your child's day. 🌞Mini Bio: My name is Ashley. Started babysitting at age of 16 for family and friends of the family. Then when those children outgrew me , I found sittercity and got alot my jobs here . I've done PET sitting, house sitting, and babysitting. Most families I been lucky watch the kids until they outgrown needing me, or sometimes I get one day jobs with families that are just visiting Rhode Island needing a sitter. Thank You & Hope to hear from you soon!

Hello, and thanks for stopping by. My name is Samantha. I possess a unique set of skills and experience, that I am hoping will help your family thrive! I spent 18yrs as an RN in charge of a very busy medical/surgical unit. I left that career in 2021 ,and worked as a full time Nanny for infant Triplets. That was the best decision I have ever made. “the opportunity of a lifetime” I provided care for identical triplet boys age 6mos until they were pre-school ready this year. I spent a total of 5yrs with this family, 2 full-time working parents. I I view my role as an extension or team mate to parents. Learning their parenting style and expectations, allow consistency for the child. , Whether gentle parenting, or any style I firmly believe honoring each families parenting style is essential. Prior to my Nursing career I Nannied for a few families, and started sitting at age 12. I have 3 of my own children, now young adults. My love for children has always been my calling. I am passionate about learning each child’s interests, evolving as they grow, and fostering an environment that encourages and acknowledges them as unique people, regardless of age. I formulated a flexible curriculum using play, outdoor time, and exploring as learning opportunities. Speech development and milestones can be achieved in any setting. I found, daily walks brought opportunities to learn about wild life, the changing seasons, to learning their home address. With my last family, we began letter recognition by writing letters in the sand. I enjoy creating a fun learning atmosphere. Safety is of course ALWAYS paramount. I found, once appropriate, explaining why it’s important to be aware of cars when crossing street, or any other important safety issue, that honesty works. Just a brief description of my approach and what I believe leads to a successful partnership between Nanny & Family. I have 2 years of college education in Early Childhood Education. An Associate’s in Nursing Science. CPR certified, including pediatric specific cpr & choking training. Infant-teen caregiver experience. Sleep training, toilet training, and experience with children on the spectrum. If you are seeking a caregiver that is passionate and will honor your expectations, and provide loving, safe, nurturing care for your child/children, please consider reaching out. Thank you!

My name is Heather Wall and I'm a proud mom of two great college students. I am RI Early Learning Standards and CPR/1st Aid certified and have been employed as a preschool teacher, a full-time nanny/family manager, overnight care provider and have owned a family entertainment/party venue for young children. For the past few years I have been involved in a nanny-share arrangement working from a large dedicated space in my home for a few families with children who are now aged 18 months to 3 years old. At this time I am able to take an additional child on Monday and Thursday after 11:30 a.m. and anytime on Tuesdays or Fridays. I am also happy to provide childcare in your home on evenings or weekends anywhere in NK, Saunderstown, North Narragansett, SK or Exeter. I have or course taken a plethora of classes in childcare, behavior management, etc. and have plenty of of tricks up my sleeve to keep kids entertained and redirect negative behaviors when needed. Several of the families that have attended my preschool program have used me to care for their children for weekends while they were away or as overnight sitter when needed. I'm comfortable with food allergies, infant led weaning , ASD and ADHD management/protocols and happy to be in a home with pets. In my free time I enjoy hiking, skiing, kayaking and paddle boarding. I look forward to hearing from you and encourage you to ask to speak to any of my former employers for more information about me.

I am a caring young adult. In the past, I've worked as a substitute teacher in Warwick School District, K-12, where I gained valuable experience working with children of various ages. This background has helped me develop patience, creativity, and effective communication skills, all of which I bring to babysitting. Currently, I work in the medical field, which has further strengthened my ability to stay calm, think quickly, and ensure the safety and well-being of others. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, or making sure your child is well cared for, I’m confident I can provide a fun and safe environment.
