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!

Lorelei H., Nanny in Sanford, ME 04073 with 15 years of paid experience

Hi! I’m Lorelei. I just moved back to Maine after spending the past three years living in Japan. Right now, I’m teaching art at the Middle School of the Kennebunks and working toward my master’s degree in Art Education. I’ve worked with kids of all ages, from four months to teenagers. I’ve been a nanny for several families and have also done lots of date night and event babysitting. Over the years, I’ve worked in several daycare settings, special education classrooms, and directed summer camps. I love working with kids and bringing creativity into everything I do. I’m currently available for occasional babysitting opportunities and am open to some more regular hours during the summer before the school year begins. I’m reliable, patient, and always happy to jump into crafts, games, or anything your kids are into. Feel free to reach out if you’d like to chat or see if it’s a good fit!

Lorelei is fantastic. She watched our kiddos during a family vacation to Maine. She was responsive, professional, and great with our two high-energy five-year-old boys.

Robyn B., Nanny in Sanford, ME 04073 with 9 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Robyn, and I recently graduated with my master’s degree in social work! I’m passionate about working with children and eager to bring that passion into a professional setting to make a meaningful difference. Currently, I am looking for occasional or part-time childcare opportunities, and I’m highly flexible to accommodate the needs of families. With over ten years of diverse childcare experience, I’ve worked in a range of settings, from caring for multiple children, including infants and children with special needs, to handling overnight care and managing sick days. In my previous role at a childcare facility, I thrived in caring for groups of 30+ children, but I’m now seeking smaller-scale opportunities where I can foster more personal connections with the families and children I support. I am fully COVID-19 vaccinated and First-Aid certified, prioritizing a safe, nurturing, and fun environment in every setting. In addition to my love for working with children, I am also focused on earning money to support my student loans. I’m determined to be adaptable and find solutions that work for each family, so if you’re in need of some extra help, I would love to work together to make things easier for you!

Robyn were helping us for 2 weeks with very strict schedule. She was always on time and went above and beyond caring for our kids and keeping them entertained. They both loved her. We will definitely look for her help again once we're in Lake Wales next time.

Taylor was our full-time nanny for our infant son when I went back to work after my maternity leave ended. She is the BEST! She is patient, warm-hearted, responsible, reliable, calming, and fun to be around. It felt totally natural having her in our home as part of our family. Our son was born almost six weeks early and Taylor worked with him daily on his motor skills, and met with his physical therapist as needed. She also followed a strict feeding and sleeping schedule perfectly, which helped immensely with sleep training. She sent my husband and I daily photo and video updates that were the highlight of our day. It made the transition of going back to work so much easier. The best part was seeing our son's face light up every morning when it was time for Taylor take over! I would highly recommend her as a babysitter.

Laura S., Nanny in Sanford, ME 04073 with 5 years of paid experience

Hi! I'm Laura, a 25-year-old nanny. I am blessed with my younger sister, who was born with down syndrome. She taught me patience, filled my heart with love & impacted my life in such a beautiful way, inspiring my passion for childcare. Most recently, I have cared full time for a 7-month-old and 2-year-old for over two years, as well as infant care for their new baby boy. I encourage learning through music, interactive reading, dancing, outdoor adventures, and educational activities. I ensure the environment stays spotless and organized, giving the parents such relief around the house as well. This family has moved away, but my time with them has inspired me. Seeing the children light up when they saw me, seeing how excited they would get when I'd plan personalized arts & crafts, seeing them flourish in their creativity, seeing them so happy made me truly so happy. I would love to bring my passion for child care to another family looking for a nurturing, kind, loving nanny.
