Located in wrentham I have been a dedicated nanny for over a year, caring for three children ages 3 to 15. My responsibilities include school drop-offs and pick-ups, helping with homework, and transporting them to various activities. During the summer, I spent full days with them, organizing tutoring sessions and fun outings. In addition to this role, I have experience babysitting toddlers during college and helping care for my younger cousins, ranging in age from 1 to 12, in my large family. I am CPR certified and passionate about working with children, finding joy in supporting families and creating a positive environment for the kids I care for.

Caroline was great! Our little guy loved when she would come over and play! She was always punctual and would even bring toys and gifts to help entertain him.

Hello, my name is Samantha Berard! I'm 30 years old and I currently live in Pawtucket Rhode Island. I studied Early Childhood and Elementary Education at Rhode Island College and also took a few classes at Fisher College. While I was in college, I nannied for a family of four children that were all under the age of 10- which was a blast! For the past 8 years I've worked at an Early Learning Center in North Attleboro. I am a preschool and infant/toddler certified teacher. I am also CPR and first aid certified. I am very passionate about working with children and the impression that I leave on them. I try my best to make every day a positive and fun experience for the children. I would use the words patient, engaging, and compassionate to describe how I interact with children. I'm very familiar with age appropriate activities for all age groups and I enjoy thinking of creative ways they can learn and grow. I do own my own reliable car. I also am willing to help with any household services that would be needed. I'm also a pet lover and very comfortable with being around animals! Thank you so much for your time and please feel free to contact me!

Hi! I’m a young mom who truly understands the importance of finding someone you trust with your child. I have daily, hands-on experience caring for a toddler and creating a safe, loving, and engaging environment. I love doing activities like storytime, crafts, and outdoor adventures, and I’m big on keeping kids active and learning through play. By spending lots of time outdoors and in libraries! I’m patient, reliable, and treat every child with the same care and attention I give my own.

Hi there! I'm 22 and a senior at Rhode Island College. I have been babysitting since the age of 16 and I am also a dance teacher and an older sibling (ten years apart) so I certainly work with kids on a daily basis! I have covered just about every age group, I currently have a family with a six year old girl and a ten year old boy and another family with a two year old girl, but I've been with just about every age. I'm comfortable with infants and great at keeping toddlers entertained. If you're looking for someone experienced, look no further!

I’m currently looking for childcare-related jobs such as babysitting, tutoring, or after-school care where I can support families and create a safe, positive environment for kids. I have experience caring for children from newborns to age 16 through family care, church programs, and my AmeriCorps service in Atlanta, where I tutored and mentored middle school students. I’m currently a graduate student at Boston University School of Medicine and previously worked in biopharma as a quality control analyst. I’m also BLS certified and have a strong passion for working with kids. Outside of academics, I’ve raised two dogs and a parrot, and I love to read in my free time. My goal is to become a physician serving underrepresented communities, and I bring a nurturing, dependable, and community-focused mindset to everything I do

Oluwatoyin (Toyin) has been wonderful with our 14-month-old and 5-year-old. She’s attentive, always on time, and very responsive in her communication. The kids love her—she engages them in fun, age-appropriate activities. She’s reliable, caring, and we look forward to working with her again.

Hi, I’m a nanny. I have 25+ years experience in childcare. I’ve been working primarily with infants up until the age of three when they go to primary school lately.. I believe in helping you to raise your children in the style in which you prefer to create some consistency for the children. I am open to learning new things and open to making suggestions with my years of experience if you so desire. I am CPR and first aid trained. I have taken some classes on child and infant development. I love working with children and helping them to discover the world around them. It’s so exciting to see children discover new things and just start to use those new things they learn. I absolutely love doing arts and crafts with any aged children, singing, reading playing outdoor outdoors when weather permitted. I believe there needs to be good communication between all caregivers to create the consistency for the child and it makes it easier for transition from one caregiver to the other. I am looking for a part-time work, preferably a full days a few days a week, but I am open to other options. I have a four hour minimum unless it’s right here in my hometown. I would love to hear more about your wants and desires and a childcare provider. I look forward to hearing from you and hope that we can discuss further the possibility of working together.
