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.

Hello! I am a 33-year-old marine scientist who is pursuing a Master's degree at URI. My classes and research take place during regular school hours, allowing me to be free most evenings and weekends to babysit. I have over 10 years of nannying, babysitting, and teaching experience. My previous jobs include substitute teaching (K-8), leading students (K-12) in outdoor activities (including snorkeling, hiking, and kayaking), and working in the ocean conservation field. Additionally, I was a certified lifeguard for 12 years (includes CPR/First Aid). As a babysitter, I aim to be positive, compassionate, safety-oriented, and provide opportunities for the kids I am watching to have fun. I enjoy baking, reading, surfing, neighborhood walks (especially with my dog), and arts/crafts. As an aunt to five nieces and nephews under the age of 10, I feel confident taking care of babies and toddlers. If you think I would be a good fit for your family, let's connect! For an initial meet-up, I am happy to hop on a video or phone call to discuss your needs and preferences for a sitter. Thank you!

Hello, I am Jacarra and I love what I do. I currently work at an elementary school and have also worked in daycare settings so I have experience with all ages. Some duties I’ve had over the years included ensuring a safe environment, prepare/serve meals, helped dress children (if needed) I really enjoy arts and crafts, playing outside and going to parks and beaches in the summer time! If they needed medicine, checked on allergies with parents, helped with homework and anything else needed. I currently clean houses so wouldn’t mind tidying up some. If you have any questions feel free to message me!

I am a mother of one daughter and grandmother of two; I have worked as a professional nanny for many years after working as a legal assistant. I am originally from Washington State and lived in Hawaii as well. I moved to Rhode Island and Connecticut, respectively, in '98. I enjoy children much more than administrative work, hence, I turned to childcare. I have had many long-term commitments, newborns on-up, twin infants in the mix, and special-needs (autistic;) I am blessed to still see the local, former families. (Although I am "seasoned," in age, I encourage prospective families to view me as bringing a grandmotherly-presence to children - able-bodied, yet mature and nurturing, with no personal commitments to conflict with a family's needs.) I am CPR/First Aid/AED certified (a given,) have a squeaky-clean DMV/BCI check and a non-smoker. Infant care: bottle-feedings, solid foods - all down pat... I have a passion for the arts - Broadway show tunes, children love them! I focus on age-appropriate activities, have collected a wealth of craft project archives and I am well-versed in children's literature; I am a Play-Doh goddess, good for the little ones. I am an avid animal-lover and am more than happy to attend to pet care needs. I am open to any questions you may have and references are readily available.

Hi! I'm Elizabeth, a recent Yale graduate. I'm back in Rhode Island for part of the summer before I start my post-grad job in DC in July, and I'd love to help out your family. I've been babysitting since high school, and absolutely love working with kids. I'm CPR and Wilderness First Aid Certified, as I lead outdoor orientation programs at Yale throughout college. I love to cook, clean, and am also good with pets. I also have my drivers license. Please reach out - I have a flexible schedule and would love to chat.

Hello! My name is Alyssa, I am 30 years old and have been working in the childcare field for the past 8 years. I have a four year old daughter. I have grown up taking care of younger siblings, cousins, and family friends and I love spending time with my nieces and nephew! I am very outgoing, and take pride in my work. I believe being on time and punctual is always important when working with families and children. I ended my job as a teachers assistant 4 years ago, since then I have been nannying for the same family. I am CPR certified. I am looking to assist local families in completing daily tasks and caring for their children. I am available for after school Care starting in September as the family I am nannying for is moving and we will no longer need me. Thank you! 😊

Hi my name is Lexi. I have been babysitting/nannying/camp counseling on and off since I was 14. I love kids and animals. I like doing outside activities, arts and crafts and i’m a great storyteller.

Hello! Thank you for coming to my profile. My name is Alyssa and I am a certified elementary school teacher. I first started nannying 8 years ago while I was completing graduate school. Through this I have been able to gain experience with a range of children up to 13 years old. I'm currently working as a Teacher Assistant at a local charter school during the school year and work as a private tutor during the summer months. Currently, I have some availability on Mondays and Fridays and am also available for evenings and weekends. I'm very upbeat and understanding so being a nanny is a good fit for me.
