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.

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!

I graduated from Salem State University in 2019 and I have a Bachelor’s in history and educational studies. I have worked with kids since I was 16, babysitting, camp counseling, teaching after school programs, teaching special ed and my own history classroom and mentoring;I love kids. I have been taught well by my parents who are teachers as well. I am CPR and first aid certified. I am free all week during the day and some Saturdays and Sundays. I will be returning to teaching in the fall.

I’m 25! I have worked as an instructional assistant in kindergarten and nannied for multiple families! I have my bachelors in early childhood education. I have my own transportation. I love animals and children and hope to make a difference in every child’s life! I love coming up with developmentally appropriate activities for the children as well as engaging activities!

Hi, My name is Miranda. I am a social worker (LCSW) who has a passion for working with kids! I am CPR certified, I have a clean record, and I am a non-smoker. I have extensive experience working with kiddos who are on the spectrum, kiddos who have more intensive needs, and kiddos aged 5 weeks to 18 years. I enjoy being outside and helping kids engage in creative play.

Hi! My name is Bri, I work at MaineHealth Family medicine, I have great experience with infants-middle school age. I am CPR/BLS Certified. I am interactive and positive when it comes to children. I am very attentive and love having fun!

I love spending time with children because they bring so much innocence, wonder and curiosity to the world. I enjoy slowing down, being present, and encouraging creativity through art, music, crafts, pretend play and time outdoors. I believe childhood is a time to explore, learn, and feel safe, and I strive to create an environment where kids can do just that. I have over 13 years of experience caring for children of all ages through babysitting and professional caregiving. I also worked as a pediatric CNA, where I cared for children with special needs. That experience strengthened my patience, adaptability, and ability to provide attentive, compassionate care tailored to each child's unique needs. I am CPR certified and take safety seriously while making sure children have fun, stay engaged, and feel supported. I believe that one of my greatest strengths is how deeply I care for others- I bring that same compassion to every family I work with. Outside of childcare I consider myself an artist who loves music, community, learning new things, and spending time outdoors no matter the season. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy building lasting, trusting relationships with the families I work for. My goal is to be a dependable caring presence that both children and parents can feel comfortable with.

I've been a professional nanny for the past 32 years. I enjoyed traveling to Paris and Bermuda in my earlier years as a nanny. My longest position was 10 years with one family. I enjoy working with children and being a part of their growth and development. My current families needs are changing, so I am looking forward to finding a new family to care for. I will miss my current family, though we will stay in touch! They are like family to us. I have worked for many professional families over the years, as well as a local nanny agency. I have a preliminary background check available upon request. I have excellent references!
