Sittercity helps Woods Hole families find the best nannies

Hi, I’m Michele. I live in Mattapoisett, MA. I have two grandchildren and am lucky enough to be a very “hands on” kind of grandmother as I live in an in-law space next to daughter and her family. I have been a nanny for children as young as birth and as old as middle school. My goal as a Nanny is to care for, guide, instruct, protect, and teach children. I am willing to do light housekeeping including helping children maintain their rooms, clean play area, and laundry. If I had to describe myself in five adjectives I would say that I am caring, loving, committed, responsible and diligent. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, and even dance lessons. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, do laundry and run errands such as food shopping, dry cleaning and pharmacy runs etc. as I love to be busy! I also love pets and am willing to take care of them as well with vet appointments, grooming, etc. I am a fun-loving and creative person that loves to make life-long memories with children. I simply love children and enjoy helping them learn and grow at every stage of their young lives. I strive to create an atmosphere at home where your child is safe, happy and engaged in meaningful activities. I’m passionate about developing strong relationships with both parents and children. My strengths as a nanny are that I am very responsible, reliable and caring person. I am passionate about furthering my time in the Nanny field so that I can continue doing what I love and broadening my experiences. I am kind, patient and nurturing and I am excited about the opportunity to join your family!

My name is Charlotte Hauser, and I am working at Morning Glory's flower farm in West Tisbury this summer and am looking for extra work this summer! I am from North Carolina and will be a junior this year at the University of North Carolina! As for my childcare experience, I have been babysitting since I was 15 (I am 20 now), ranging from as young as a 12-month-old to middle schoolers. Last summer, I nannied a 12-month-old for two months. I have been a camp counselor for two summers, and I have also given tennis lessons to young children as well. I am a current girl scout leader in Chapel Hill for a group of first through third graders, and I work at the Morehead Planetarium on campus, so I interact with lots of children on a daily basis!

Hello, my name is Morgan, I have been caring for children for many years, as well as household management. I recently moved here from NJ with my husband and looking for something part time on top of a full time job I'm starting in May from 8:30-4:30. So my availability is afternoons 4:30pm till 9pm Monday the Friday and anytime Saturdays and Sundays. I have plenty of references and I'm extremely organized and clean. I can help with any household tasks, any of the children's needs and meal preparation for home and school lunches. Let me know if you would like to talk further, thank you for your time.

My name is Dillon (listed as my legal name due to site requirements), and I’m a transgender caregiver with over 5 years of professional nannying experience. I’ve worked long-term with three families, primarily caring for children between 4 months and 4 years old. I’ve been with my current family since their daughter was 4 months—she’s now almost 3 and starting preschool this fall, which opens up my availability on Tuesdays and Thursdays starting in September. I bring a calm, creative, and developmentally supportive presence to the families I work with. I love teaching sign language and reading with little ones, and I favor structure and routine—consistent nap and mealtimes, regular library classes, and daily outings to parks or play spaces. I’m not currently CPR certified but am happy to retake the course before starting with a new family. I’m also comfortable with pets! I’d love to connect and see if we’re a good fit.

I have been caring for babies and young children for about 8 years, and I couldn't imagine loving anything more. I have 4 younger brothers, and have absolutely loved watching them grow up. I will ensure the safety and security of your child while also adding a fun and energetic presence into your family's life! I also love animals and venturing out to see new places and do new things (as long as the parents are comfortable) I have an excellent work ethic and will give your child the best care.

Hi! My name is Avery Simmons. I’m originally from Martha’s Vineyard and have been working with kids for years through babysitting, nannying, and as a camp counselor at Chappaquiddick Beach Club. I’ve been caring for children since I was 16 and truly enjoy creating a fun, supportive, and safe environment for every child I work with. I recently graduated from Elon University with a degree in Strategic Communications, and while I’m pursuing a career in marketing, I love continuing to babysit because working with kids brings me so much joy. I’m energetic, creative, and patient, and I’m always happy to help with crafts, outdoor play, homework, and bedtime routines. I’m also comfortable with meal prep, transportation, and light tidying up. Whether you’re looking for a regular sitter or just someone to step in when you need a night out, I’d love to be someone you and your family can count on.

Thank you for letting me introduce myself! First and Foremost... I LOVE kids! Let's play and have fun! I am retired Preschool Director, Teacher, and am currently a Nanny. I am lucky to have, from my previous work, many happy kiddos and parents still in my circle of friends. For me, I find working with children is most rewarding and fulfilling. Children are a delightful gift, they bring so much joy, and make every day one of wonder and curiosity. I enjoy facilitating and being part of the growth of child's mind, healthy body, and spirit; My special interest, in all my work, has always been encouraging a child's social-emotional growth, and helping them develop strong self-esteem. I treat each child as an individual, with respect, with kindness, and with caring. As a trusted caregiver, each child’s personal health and safety is of utmost importance to me. I am a Newborn/Infant/Toddler Specialist, having guided many parents through all aspects of their first years as a family. Over my years as an Education professional, I have worked with children of many different backgrounds, abilities and challenges. I have 40 years worth of teaching, adventures, arts & crafts, singing, dancing, reading, storytelling, and creative imaginings in my toolbox (all of which keeps me young at heart!) My promise is to bring these skills to share with the children I am privileged to work with. I, in turn, continue to learn from children and the wisdom they have to share with us grown-ups. I am trained, and current, in Pediatric First Aid and Pediatric CPR. I am fully vaccinated against COVID-19, and happy to share proof of such. Thank you for your consideration! Best, Loren lorenbeebuzz@gmail.com
