Find experienced nannies in Harwinton, CT

Hello! My name is Dhespina, and I babysit three children (ages 6, 11, and 14) every weekday morning, Monday through Friday. I started babysitting the kids in January 2025. My responsibilities include waking the children up for school, helping the youngest get dressed and brush his teeth, making sure they’ve had breakfast, packing their lunches, and getting all three to school on time. In the afternoons, I pick them up from school, take them to appointments when needed, and occasionally stay after school to babysit. I love babysitting because I genuinely enjoy being around children. It doesn’t feel like work to me, but something that comes naturally because of how much I enjoy it. ***CERTIFIED IN ADULT, CHILD AND INFANT, PEDIATRIC CPR/AED & FIRST AID***

Hello, my name is Sarah. I’m 25 years old and currently seeking an after school part-time position where I can bring my energy, creativity, and experience to a warm family environment. I have extensive hands on experience caring for children of different ages and developmental stages, and I take pride in being a reliable, honest, and nurturing caregiver. My approach to childcare blends responsibility with fun. I love spending time outdoors, encouraging imaginative play, and engaging children in creative projects. Cooking and artistic activities are among my favorite hobbies, and I enjoy sharing them with the children I care for. I’m also glad to help with light household tasks such as tidying, laundry, and errands. In addition to general childcare, I have experience supporting children in special education, including those on the spectrum. I strive to be patient and supportive through each stage of a child’s growth. It’s also very important to me to work with an inclusive, LGBTQ+ friendly family that values kindness, respect, and acceptance for all.

Hello...My name is Phyllis and I am an experienced childcare provider who is looking to help out families as a 'mother's helper' or to babysit part time or to babysit on an as-needed occasion such as a date night. I have been licensed through the State of CT as a substitute in home daycares since 2006. As part of the licensing processing, I have consistently passed a background check. I recently renewed my Heartsaver Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED certification in April 2021. As a substitute in the home daycares, I am use to being with multiple children, following nutrition guidelines, naptime routines, etc. I also care for 2 children age 3 and 6 years on an as-needed basis. When I am with children, I love to see how their minds work and how their interests develop. I enjoy kids music, shows, creative and imaginative play, reading children's books, etc. During activities, I incorporate educational aspects based on age such as identifying colors, right/left, critical thinking, etc. I can also provide homework assistance. The children that I care for always come first but if there is an opportunity to wash the dishes, sweep, or fold the laundry, etc, I will do so. I can also assist you in household activities such as switching over the seasonal clothes, pet care, and other chores. I am comfortable being with pets. I look forward to meeting your family!
