Aarin was fantastic! She had a really calming presence with my daughter and seemed caring but professional. When I got home the house was tidier than I left it and my daughter was all smiles. Aarin was really prompt and clear in all our scheduling communications, which I appreciated. Definitely recommend!

Anna B., Nanny in Sandy Hook, CT 06482 with 10 years of paid experience

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've had the pleasure of having Tricia as our babysitter for several months now and could not be happier with the level of care and dedication she brings to her role. She is an exceptional babysitter who checks all the boxes for what parents would look for when entrusting their children to someone else's care. Punctuality One of Tricia's standout qualities is her punctuality. She's consistently on time, often arriving a few minutes early to get a sense of any special instructions or needs for the day. Her timely arrivals and departures assure us that we can maintain our own schedules without any added stress. Politeness and Communication Tricia is incredibly polite and easy to communicate with. Her kind demeanor makes her approachable, and it's evident that she listens attentively when we discuss our children's needs or any particular instructions for the day. Moreover, she engages in meaningful conversations with our kids, helping them feel comfortable and heard. Kindness and Care Tricia's kindness shines through in every interaction. She not only looks after our children but genuinely cares for their well-being. Whether it's helping with homework, facilitating creative play, or even dealing with the occasional scraped knee or tantrum, Tricia handles every situation with compassion and a calming presence. Safety Conscious We are particularly impressed with Tricia's commitment to safety. She always ensures that our kids are safe, whether they're in the home, at the park, or participating in any other activities. It's a significant relief knowing our children are in such responsible hands. Final Thoughts Tricia is not just a babysitter; she has become an integral part of our family routine. Her politeness, punctuality, kindness, and commitment to our children's safety make her a standout choice for anyone looking for top-notch childcare. We couldn't be more grateful for her services and highly recommend her to any parent in need of reliable and compassionate childcare. We look forward to many more months (or even years!) of Tricia being a part of our family's life.

Vera M., Nanny in Sandy Hook, CT 06482 with 14 years of paid experience

Hi, my name is Vera. I am a professional caregiver looking for a new family (due to relocation). We might be a good fit together if you are looking for: Someone with years of experience. I have been working as a full-time nanny for over ten years. That experience means I know how to find the right balance with families — providing structure, routine and boundaries for kids so they (and their parents) can thrive while also creating an environment that is fun, spontaneous and loving. Someone dedicated and loyal. I was with my last family for six years. They have three beautiful, active children (9, 6 and 2) that I feel honored to have helped raise. Conner, their mom, told me to write that she, “absolutely, positively, doesn’t know what we’ll do without her”. We have a wonderful relationship and it is only due to an out-of-state relocation that I am leaving them. They have also proactively offered to speak with any families that would be interested. Someone trustworthy and honest. I am a great communicator and take what I do very seriously. Trust takes time to build, but I believe it is vital that every time you leave your children in my care you can feel confident that are being well taken care. Someone loving. The above is what I have learned and honed over years of experience, but experience isn’t needed to always treat children with love and respect. I love children. I love what I do. And I think that comes through each and every day. What I am looking for: I am searching for a family that is looking for a full-time nanny. Ideally Mon-Fri 8-6PM (some flexibility). Ideally located in the Westport, Stamford, Greenwich Darien or Fairfield area. I am happy to care for multiple children and have specific experience with infants. I am also happy to cook meals for the children, arrange playdates and activities. Importantly, I am looking for a family that is interesting in building a relationship that is lasting. Please contact me if you think I might be a good fit for your family.

It is best to admit now that I am writing this with tears streaming down my face. I can not imagine these last six years of our lives without Vera in them. She has been more than a nanny, she is a co-mother to me. While I am devastated that she won’t be with us every day, I feel truly grateful that I met her all those years ago. Our family will be forever positively changed by her loving influence — I will be forever changed. She not only helped raise my babies into the respectful, kind fun kids that are today, she also helped me become a better mother to them. What a gift. Let me tell you some of the reasons she is so wonderful. First, she is like a modern-day, real world Mary Poppins. The kids have a routine and boundaries. She does it all so naturally, you don’t even know it is happening, but she provides structure and stability. And also fun! The kids love playing with her. Most of their time in our house is screen free. She takes them to playdates and the park. I never have to think twice about her going out with them. She is cool, calm and in charge. She just always has it figured out. I love that I never have to worry. Never have to second guess. Things just magically happen. Actually, that’s not true. I DID have to worry about other moms trying to steal our nanny (they tried!). But Vera is such a dedicated person, I actually didn’t even have to worry about that. I know with her my kids always come first. She loves them like I do. Which no amount of training or experience can account for — that’s just the kind of person she is. I recommend Vera without hesitation. I believe who you choose as a nanny is an incredibly important decision. If you are lucky enough to find the right person, it is magical. Some family in Connecticut is about to win the lottery.

Alaina L., Nanny in Sandy Hook, CT 06482 with 20 years of paid experience

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.
