Find experienced nannies in Kennebunk, ME

Hello, My name is Alexandra, I’m 51 a semi retired masters level social worker. I have about 30+ years of experience. focused jobs and be able to work with kids in a more organic way. I am known to be silly, conscientious, reliable and very compassionate. I truly enjoy being with kids of all ages and find it meaningful to help them experience the world in thoughtful, creative, playful and secure ways. I try to make things seem like an adventure and address conflicts as opportunities for growth. I am also very good with infants and have experience with sleep training. I see my job as being both a coach and a mama bear. If anything does arise I am extremely well trained, calm and focused in an emergency. I’ve been CPR and First Aid trained for over 30 years. As a parent and family social worker I have learned many effective behavior management techniques for kids ages birth to 100. I believe it's extremely important to provide each family the specific care they want and to honor the norms, needs and values of the household.The most important thing to know about me as a childcare provider is that I will take care of your children, pets and household the way you want me to. I believe taking responsibility for the well-being of any child means you always put them first. Choosing the right person to care for your child and trust them in your home is the most important decisions a person can make. I welcome any and all kinds of questions or requests and can make myself available for online interviews at your convenience. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, Alexandra Sagov MSW

I have been babysitting since 2014 and nannying since 2018. I have also been subbing for the past three years and I recently graduated with a bachelors degree in elementary education. I am a travel nanny in the summer for a family based out of NYC and during the school year I am teaching currently. Summer of 2021, I was a part-time nanny for a 14 month old girl where I had many responsibilities including putting her down for her nap, feeding her, and entertaining her for the duration of our day. I have learned a lot about working with babies and toddlers on things like motor skills, developmental milestones, and emotional understanding. For older children, I have learned many strategies pertaining to supplemental learning inside and outside of the classroom. I love going on adventures and making the best out of any situations, so rain or shine I can guarantee we will have a lot of fun!

For the past 13 years I have been a babysitter for families as a mothers helper, babysitter and morning nanny. Currently, I am first aide and CPR certified. My goal when I babysit is to make your life easier. I have worked with children from newborn to school aged. Please feel free to contact me!

I enjoy teaching children and play with them. I enjoy taking time to do outside activities with them like walking, exploring nature or going to the beach. I enjoy reading, doing crafts and music with children.

Hi! Since graduating from Brandeis University in 2022. I've been a pre-k teacher in Honolulu, HI. My first babysitting gig was watching my younger sister for my mom growing up. I babysat for others throughout high school and worked as a nanny while in college. I am excited to transition back to working with a family (or families) on a more personalized level again as I look for a position here. I am currently pursuing my PhD in Occupational Therapy and am lucky enough to currently have a relatively flexible schedule upon moving to Maine in July!

Hi there! I am a nursing student at USM so I’m looking for some part time positions while I’m in my clinicals! I have been a nanny for the past two years for three boys, ages 5/6, 8/9, and 10/11! Before this I was a flag cheer coach (k-2) for three years and was an occasional babysitter around town as well! I’d love to chat more about your needs!

Hi,My name is Danah! Here is a little bit about me: I am currently in Graduate school at Springfield College to get a Masters in Occupational therapy. During my undergrad at Springfield I was also a member of the women’s gymnastics team. I have a strong passion for working with Kids with tons of experience! Since the age of 14, I have worked as a gymnastics coach for kids ages 2 and up! I have also worked as a summer camp counselor for kids of all ages. With that being said I am more than comfortable working with multiple kids at once and can provide any entertainment and I am extremely engaged with them. I also maintain a job working as a personal care attendant. During my free time I babysit for any members of the local community. I am CPR certified, have a reliable car, and can provide references as needed. I am comfortable with pets and have pet sit for families as well. I hope to find more families to connect with! Contact me for any of your date night needs! Thanks!

Hi, I’m Emma and seeking my next nanny opportunity with a wonderful family. I am the oldest of 5 children so I have grown up taking care of little ones. I have also babysat/ nannied for multiple family’s for the past 4 years wether it be for date nights or a more regular basis. As the oldest of my siblings, caregiving has always been a part of my day-to-day. So, naturally, I turned to childcare as a profession. I am choosing to further this through pursuing a career in pediatric nursing. In my last 2 years of high school I worked with Pre-K and Kindergarten as an assistant, as well as substitute when needed in elementary. In my free time I love being outdoors and will go skiing when I can, so I love to incorporate the outdoors when watching kids. I am so excited to meet your family and my hope in my time with you is to create a lasting impact through care, attention, and fun! Can’t wait to meet you!

Hello! My name is Savanna. I am a recent college graduate who is looking to give a helping hand to your family! I feel inspired by our coming generation and love working and playing with children in a compassionate, thoughtful way. I believe that children constantly teach us lessons as we teach them. My approach to childcare is based on giving mutual respect and compassion, both to each other, and to the world around them. My general guidelines, alongside instructions from the parents, are: "Are they safe? Are they happy?" My approach to childcare also includes the outdoors. In my experience, children flourish when outside! Constructive play, engagement with the outdoors, and encouraging curiosity are all incredibly important to not only myself, but to my childcare practices. I'm the oldest of 5, and I've spent much of my life caring for children. I have about a year and a half of experience in substitute teaching at both public and Waldorf inspired curriculums. Additionally, I have a year of paid nanny experience. I'm looking forward to hearing from you!
