I’m a graduate of Haddam-Killingworth High School class of 2022. I am currently attending CSSU. In school I was involved in clubs (president of the drama club), swim team, and have been a Girl Scout since elementary school. I’ve worked as a camp counselor at HK Recreation and taught swim lessons to elementary and middle school kids as well as lifeguarded. I currently work in retail. In my free time I enjoy reading and creating art. I enjoy working with kids since they are so creative and excited about the world around them.

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.

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’m a reliable, patient, and attentive sitter with experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to elementary-aged kids. I genuinely enjoy creating a calm, fun, and structured environment where kids feel safe, engaged, and comfortable being themselves. I’m great at balancing playtime, learning, and routines—whether that’s helping with homework, preparing snacks, or planning creative, screen-free activities. I’m available Monday–Friday and have flexible daytime hours, making me a great fit for families who need consistent, dependable care. Families describe me as organized, trustworthy, and easy to communicate with. I always aim to keep your home running smoothly while making sure your child is happy, supported, and well cared for.

I am a graduating high school senior with almost three years of child care experience! I also have a younger brother that is five years younger than I whom I’ve babysat growing up. I enjoy engaging with his friends playing sports, watching movies, etc… I am going to college for elementary education and have assistant taught at the kindergarten through third grade levels. In the last two years I have babysat for a family with a 1 and 3 year old, as well as a family with a newborn, 3, 4 and 7 year olds. I have a passion for teaching and helping kids grow! I am a patient, creative, and kind person. I am also currently taking a first aid/cpr training class and will be certified in a month. I have experience with diaper changing, doing activities/homework with kids, preparing meals, and I also have a car! I am looking for a summer nannying/babysitting job, please feel free to reach out!
