Hi everyone! I'm Anna, I've always loved caring for and educating children. I have my Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education. I grew up in a big family with 11 siblings and over 20 nieces and nephews!! So caring for children has been a natural part of my life. I've worked with kids of all ages, but most of my professional experience is with 12months to 5 years old. I student taught at Hill and Plain elementary for the preschool. I led activities ranging from story times, music, and movement, to various art and sensory projects. My focus was always pushing curiosity and of course giving them a safe space to do so! Some activities I really enjoy doing with children are getting outside and going to the playground and parks, the library, sensory play, teaching shapes/colors, arts and crafts, and how to navigate their big emotions. Outside of work I'm big into health/fitness, visiting friends and family, reading and trying new things like restaurants or hobbies!

We feel so fortunate to have met Anna. She's personable, responsible, and our kids adore her. She kept them busy every day, took them to get ice cream, the park, swimming, and even housesat for us while we were on vacation. I highly recommend Anna, and my kids do too!

I am a professional nanny with many years experience with infants, young children and teens. For many years I was a stay at home mom, but now my children are getting older and independent. I have a joyful home that I share which my husband almost 30 years and my son 21 in college, and my daughter 16. I loved being home which my children and aside from my affection for them, I have gained a wealth of knowledge in health and welfare. I am a very responsible loving and conscientious caregiver. The safety of children in my care is most important and essential. I have nurtured babies, feeding, diapering, bathing and all manner of care. I have safely driven children to and from school, activities and outings.I have kept complex household schedules, prepped and cooked delicious and nutritious meals, and cleaned up. I have helped out with pets, run errands, gone grocery shopping, laundry and light house keeping. Actives I enjoy doing with children are all about being physically active outdoors, hiking on trails, exploring nature, playing in creeks and going to the beach, pool, zoo, or just playing at the playground. It’s great fun making couch forts on rainy days and baking cookies. Being creative with crafts and painting works of art for quiet time activities. I try to encourage responsibility in children by having them help clean up their toys and seeing the value in being a good helper. I discourage screens and encourage books. I love reading to children and teaching them about the world. Mostly I strive for FUN! I have a special needs child and I have spent many years in specialized therapies. I have developed a very intuitive and sensitive nature in dealing whith my child’s disability. It has been the center of our lives 24/7. I understand the patience and nuance that is required when working and striving for important developmental milestones. I have completed two parent training courses at The Yale child Study Center, New Haven.

We feel incredibly fortunate to have had Chrysa as our nanny. From the very beginning, she brought so much warmth, patience, and genuine care into our home. Chrysa was not only loving and attentive with our daughter, but she also made every day fun and enriching. Whether it was reading together, outdoor walks around the neighborhood, or simply the way she always listened with such kindness, our daughter absolutely adored her. Chrysa has a natural ability to connect with children, and it was so reassuring as parents to know that our daughter was in such capable, nurturing hands. She was always punctual, communicative, and thoughtful — going above and beyond in ways we’ll always be grateful for. It’s clear she puts her heart into what she does, and it made a world of difference for our family. We can’t recommend Chrysa enough — she’s truly a gem, and any family would be lucky to have her!

I am from Shelton and a mom of two children. In addition to caring for and nurturing my own children, I have been a childcare provider for the last 13 years. I was responsible for the care of newborns, toddlers, preschoolers and school age children. I am currently looking for a full time nanny position. I have had the privilege of nurturing six infants from their earliest days. I was responsible for diaper changes, feeding schedules, sleep routines and soothing colic babies. I love engaging the infants in talking, singing, reading and tummy-time. I find such joy in seeing them through each milestone; first smiles, grasping fingers and coos. l am a very neat person, and I do not mind pitching in and doing light housekeeping along with laundry. I am willing to help out with meal preparation as well. I am CPR/ First Aid certified, and a non-smoker. I have a love for animals and do not mind helping out with them. I am a very qualified child care provider and your child will be cared for and loved in a safe and nurturing environment. I am willing to provide you with references upon your request.

Maria was like a part of our family for the 5 years she worked with our children, ages 5 and 7 now. The only reason we parted ways was because my daughter was going into Kindergarten and we didn’t need full time care any longer. Maria is caring, energetic and willing to go above and beyond for any family. She was always prompt, reliable and extremely flexible with our schedules. Anyone hiring Maria as their caretaker should feel like they hit the jackpot. Your children will love her!

When I was 12 years old I started helping my aunt with my little cousins and from there my experience with children grew. In high school I organized birthday parties for small children at a sports center. From there I worked at a day care teaching children ranging in age from infancy to school age, responsible for four to 10 children at a time. It was there that I fell in love with a family and became their nanny full time. At the time I started with them they had three children, ages 6 months, 2 and 4. With the family I was responsible for organizing their daily activities, driving them to preschool, activities, appointments, play dates, etc. Two years later I rose to the challenge as the family had another child. It was then that my organizational skills, my patience, and my passion for taking care of children expanded. I was not only a baby sitter for these children but became a member of their family. I describe myself as being energetic, compassionate, trustworthy, and dedicated.
