Hello! I am an experienced caregiver who has participated in childcare for over 22 years as a nanny, babysitter, and in center based environments. I have experience with infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school aged kiddos; I have cared for children up to age 16. I have done numerous overnights for families, so I have experience with that! I put emphasis on learning through play, and, being a nature lover, try to find ways to incorporate nature in our activities. When with your child, we can sing, read, dance, do art projects, listen to music, go for walks, and take field trips to farms, the museum, playgrounds, and other fun places. I have taken child development classes, so I am pretty aware of where kids are developmentally. Respecting others is important to me, so I try to find teachable moments to convey this. I am first aid/CPR certified. I have reliable transportation, and consider myself to be very reliable as well. I am looking to work in Portland, or within 25 miles of it. I am also fully vaccinated and boosted.

Hi, My name is Bella, and I would love to get to know you and your children! I grew up with 5 siblings, so I love running around with the kids. As an older sister, I quickly learned how to be responsible and tough while still being fun and interactive. I also have experience being a camp counselor, so I know of lots of fun activities, both indoors and outdoors! I currently own 2 cats, and I grew up with dogs, so I am familiar with animals as well. I think it's very important for children to be comfortable with their babysitter, so please feel free to reach out and ask me any questions you have about me.

Hi everyone! I’m looking for a summer job starting early to mid June and would love to work with your children! I graduated from the University of Maine in May 2020 and got my degree in Social Work. I wanted to continue my education and am currently pursuing a Masters Degree at The University of Southern Maine! My passion lies around children and adolescence and I have years of experience with that population. For the past 3 summers I’ve been a camp counselor at Scarborough Summer Rec, and I’ve had multiple nannying positions. For my undergraduate Internship I was a Social Worker at an elementary school and absolutely adored it. My goal is to end up in a school setting one day where I can live out my career goals!

Hello! I am 30 years old, from Portland, Maine, but have lived all around the country. While I was away I completed a year of service with AmeriCorps NCCC, lived and worked on an organic farm in Hawaii, fought wildfires with the US Forest Service, worked as an environmental engineer doing river restoration in Colorado, and backpacked through Europe for four months. I love helping people, traveling, dancing, fitness, music, making new friends, reading, yoga, anything outdoors, and anything artsy. I am also a 5 time egg donor! I have been a nanny for children between 3 months and 10 years, on and off since I was 18 years old. I was also a daycare/preschool teacher at Toddle Inn and Above and Beyond Daycare, both of which I left on good terms. I worked mainly with infants, 2 year olds, 3 year olds, and the after school program. I am CPR/first aid certified, water safety certified, a non-smoker, comfortable with all pets, and have a resume and additional references/reference letters to send.
