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.

Hello I'm new here, excited to get started and receive reviews! I am a very active and fun-loving “Coastal Grandma” ;) looking to fill some of my time (retired) caring for your child(ren). I have experience with children of all ages, kids with special needs, was a licensed daycare provider for years, own and ran a children’s party business, and am now a “Gigi” to my first precious grandbaby. I’m also a recently certified Kinderschuss ski instructor! I’m dependable, reliable, cautious and kind. I love sharing my gifts of positive energy, creativity, compassion & understanding. I love to teach, read, rock, walk and engage in age-appropriate and developmental play. I have experience with infants and newborns (and postpartum parents) and am happy to provide care at ANY time, even overnight, so you can enjoy some sleep! A self-proclaimed foodie, so I’m always happy to help with healthy and age-appropriate or family meal prep! I look forward to giving you a helping hand for a date night out, an afternoon, a full day of fun or an overnight! You can trust that the only time I’ll be on my phone is if you ask for updates & photos. I believe in some of the “old standards” meaning that I’ll be completely engaged in providing loving care for your children (without use of electronic devices) while they’re awake…and will tidy up, prepare a meal and fold laundry while they sleep! I’ve had Babysitting Certification, Early Childhood Education classes, internship & plenty of years experience with my own children (who are now incredibly kind and caring adults :), and countless others who have been in my care. Nonsmoker. Animal Lover. Trustworthy. Respectful. Responsible. Nurturing. Experienced. Kind. American Red Cross certified in Adult, Child and Infant First Aid/CPR/AED 6/24 Full Background Check Pending // Background check run 10/23 for ski instructor training! :)
