Hi my name is Oriah and I am very passionate about kids. I love kids of all ages but especially love babies. I have recently graduated from UNH with a degree in Human Development & Family Studies and a minor in Anthropology. I have an array of experiences working with children. I have newborn experience, and have had long term nanny positions with multiple families. I also have experience working at a preschool. I am patient, energetic and goofy. I love art and being creative as well as the outdoors. I think it is extremely important for children to develop a loving relationship with nature and the outdoors. I think the most important factor for a babysitter and a family is to have open communication. I hope you consider hiring me as your babysitter because I truly enjoy working with children. Please message me if you need help! I am currently looking for 25-30 hours a week this Spring/Summer

Oriah was wonderful. Prompt and communicative, asked thoughtful and thorough questions about our daughter's care. Our daughter took to her immediately and we felt very confident with her care while we were out. We would not hesitate to use Oriah again.

Rita did a fabulous job caring for our 7 month old while we were visiting Ogunquit, Maine. Rita communicated well with us leading up to and during the babysitting gig, and she was very playful and caring with our baby. We look forward to hiring Rita again for the next time we are visiting the area!

I have a lot of experience with babysitting from ages <1 year to around 12 years old! I have also had experience with tutoring kids around the 9-13 years old which gives me good experience to help with homework, etc. I am a freshman in the College of General Studies at Boston University and am looking for some part time work on weekends or possibly one weekday (around 5-6 hrs a week). I recently had a gap semester where I spent most of it (32 hrs a week) nannying for two different families (one boy - 1 y/o and the other family 2 girls - 2 and 4 y/o) and I really grew to love the work and the kids so much so I’m hoping to find that here as well! I love working with kids and really enjoy the work I have been able to do with them in the past which makes me very hardworking on the job and fun for the kids!

Shay spent two days sitting our 5 year old while we were in town for a wedding. She was incredible- thoughtful, anticipatory, engaging, and fun. Shay planned a full itinerary in downtown Portsmouth keeping our son entertained. Highly recommend Shay!

Hi everyone! My name is Kyra, (Keira) and I’m 23 years old (24 soon!). My partner and I recently purchased our first home in New Durham, and I’m so excited to become part of this community and connect with local families! I have several years of professional childcare experience, including working in a daycare/preschool setting with children ranging from just 6 weeks old through age 6. During my time in childcare centers, I helped with daily routines, developmental activities, lesson planning, circle time, arts & crafts, outdoor play, and creating a nurturing environment where children felt safe, supported, and encouraged to learn and grow. For the past 2+ years, I’ve also been a full-time nanny for two wonderful young boys, which has given me extensive hands-on experience with infant and toddler care, emotional development, behavior guidance, meal prep, outings, learning-through-play, and maintaining a structured but loving routine. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, dependable, patient, creative, and truly passionate about working with children. I love planning engaging activities, spending time outdoors, encouraging imagination and independence, and becoming a trusted, reliable support system for families. I’m also comfortable helping with light housekeeping, children’s laundry, meal prep, transportation, pet care, errands, and helping keep the household running smoothly. Some bonus things about me! I am a dual licensed hairdresser and barber. I make my own music and play multiple instruments, I am very hands-on and crafty, and love exploring, and finding new things to do!

Hello! My name is Jessica, and I’m excited to introduce myself. I hold an associate’s degree in Early Childhood Education and am currently pursuing my bachelor’s degree to further expand my knowledge and skills in the field. I’ve most recently worked as a center director, a role that has provided me with invaluable experience in managing programs, overseeing staff, and ensuring that children receive high-quality care. However, since the birth of my daughter in July, I’ve realized that I’m looking for a change. The demands of my current position have made it challenging to find the right work-life balance, and I would love to explore a new opportunity that allows me to be more present with her. Ideally, I’m seeking a position that would allow me to bring my daughter along with me while continuing to contribute to the field I’m so passionate about. I believe this would provide the best of both worlds for me—being able to support my career growth while also cherishing the precious time with my little one. Thank you for taking the time to learn a bit about me. I look forward to the possibility of finding a role that aligns with both my professional goals and personal values.

Hello! My name is Aubrey. I just moved back to the New Hampshire area from Key West in June. I have 8+ years of experience in childcare/caregiving. I am a fun-loving, compassionate and creative person. I work part-time as a nanny for a lovely family in Exeter, and would like to find a couple more hours in the morning and at night to fill in my schedule! I’m currently available weekday mornings 7-9am and weekday nights 6-11pm. I always ensure that everyone I care for feels important and heard. I am very attentive and patient, and I make every experience memorable! I enjoy the arts, so I am always having the kids involved in projects and crafts. We usually listen to music while we play. We are constantly dancing, singing and laughing. I have many positive references and they will be furnished upon request.

Over the past seven years, I've gained extensive babysitting experience, caring for children ranging from infants to preteens. I've developed a keen understanding of each child's unique needs and preferences, ensuring a safe and nurturing environment. My responsibilities have included meal preparation, bedtime routines, and engaging in age-appropriate activities to foster creativity and learning. I prioritize open communication with parents to provide updates on the child's well-being and address any concerns promptly. My commitment to creating a positive and enjoyable experience for both the children and their families has been a cornerstone of my babysitting approach.
