I have lived in Glastonbury, CT for the last 22 years.  I have raised both my two sons, (one is 22 and the other is 25) here in Glastonbury.   I have been a mother, teacher, and tutor for over 25 years and love nurturing children.  I always knew that loving children would culminate in making a career with helping them in one form or another.  I feel comfortable with any age children, from small infants through elementary age.  I have been through wonderful, fulfilling experiences with all children of all those age ranges.  I would take great pleasure in taking care of your child(ren) and would and take my responsibility very seriously.  I would ensure that your children felt comfortable, safe, happy and secure under my care.  I would treat your child(ren) as if they were my own.  Words to descibe how I would relate to your child(ren) would be warm, loving, nurturing, responsible, upbeat, positive, organized, compassionate, sensitive to their needs, energetic, and fun-loving.  My goal would be to make their time with me consistent, fair, loving and enjoyable.  Additionally, I would enjoy teaching your children, helping them with homework, playing games/sports with them, and any other activites that you might like me to do with them.  I look forward to hearing from you soon!

Tamara D., Nanny in Columbia, CT 06237 with 10 years of paid experience

I'm a energetic, fun, trustworthy, responsible and mature adult willing to create a friendship with the children and family.  I enjoy reading, teaching, and doing projects with children. I take pride in teaching children new things, making them laugh and creating a peaceful, caring environment.  I would be able to drive if needed since I have my own reliable vehicle. I enjoy animals and would be able to take them for walks or play with them. I'm also willing to assist the family with household tasks as needed. I will supply my reference information upon request.  I am flexible with the rates and sure we could work out an arrangement based on the families needs.

Maren S., Nanny in Columbia, CT 06237 with 25 years of paid experience

With 25 years experience in education and care if infants and youth, I have always enjoyed watching them grow and learn. Kids share the best stories, make the sweetest and funniest comments about the most random things, and have unique perspectives that are so valuable. My experiences are not limited to but include the following: feeding schedules, transportation to school/activities, nap routines, soothing to sleep, homework routines, enjoying those teachable moments, and just plain following their lead from taking a walk looking for leaves to building the tallest tower of blocks. I have flexible hours and can work with your schedule. I am certified in first aid and CPR with reliable transportation. I have worked with a family with two young children, one from 4 months old until she was until 2 1/2. I also helped with the baby since he was born, taking over completely when he was about 4 months old. I look forward to hearing more about your children and family and working together.

Molly D., Nanny in Columbia, CT 06237 with 10 years of paid experience

I am a loving, reliable, creative caregiver with a wealth of experience. For the past 19 years, I have been a babysitter and nanny. I have also been entrusted with both of my sisters kids, when they were infants/toddlers. I know how hard it is to make the decision to leave your child with someone else, so I do everything I can to provide care that is what I would want for my family and I will listen carefully to what kind of care you want for your child. My specialty is infants and I believe in the importance of attentive care and meeting their needs. I love to watch little ones learn, so I follow a routine and plan activities that tap into their curiosity. I provide a day of learning, fun and play that will help prepare them for pre-K/kindergarten, including reading, arts and crafts, trips to the library, outdoor play and time to pretend. I am CPR certified and have a clean driving record
