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.

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.

Dana is currently working with my dad. She has been absolutely wonderful. She is very professional, dedicated and trustworthy. When she is with my dad, I never have to worry. She is also very willing to help in any way and has stayed extra hours whenever needed. My father likes her very much with is so important to me. I am not sure what we would do without her.

I would recommend Delia to any family. She was great was both of my girls (20 months & 5 yo). She arrived on time and asked the right questions about care of the children. I would definitely hire her again.

Kellie babysat for us while we were on vacation in Narragansett, RI. She was a great communicator with me before and during our time there. She watched our 2.5 year old two nights in a row and managed to get him to sleep without me on the second night. She handled his screaming as I left the room like a pro! I really appreciated everything she did for us that weekend and would highly recommend her.

Hello! My name is Kate. I am an experienced and enthusiastic babysitter, nanny, and pet sitter. I started off being paid to watch my 8 younger cousins (I am the eldest) at the age of 11 and from there I developed a love of childcare. Since then, I have held two long term nanny positions, volunteered at numerous children's programs, day camps and I have worked in two preschools. I have taken childhood education and certification classes. I think of the children and families I babysit for as family. I am creative and enjoy sharing my artistic passions with children. I am not one of those teenagers who will just sit on their phone.

Katherine was fantastic! We were a bit nervous getting a new sitter online for the first time but she showed up early, was very attentive when we texted and very good experience with children, including infants. Would highly recommend!

Hi! My name is Madison, and I have been caring for children since I was 14, primarily babysitting for family friends and relatives. Over the years, I've gained experience caring for children of different ages and personalities and have always genuinely enjoyed working with kids. I also have professional experience in education. I worked as a preschool teacher's aide and later worked as a middle and high school teacher, where I planned and taught lessons, managed classrooms, supported students academically, and created a safe and positive learning environment. I have a Bachelor's degree in Psychology, which has also given me a strong foundation in understanding children's development and individual needs. I'm comfortable helping with homework, preparing simple meals, maintaining routines, and handling the everyday responsibilities that come with caring for children. I'm responsible, patient, dependable, and easygoing. I'm happy to help with occasional babysitting, date nights, after-school care, and/or short term/temporary childcare needs.
