A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Gennesis and I’m a college student at the University of Rhode Island with over 8 years of hands-on childcare experience. I’ve helped my mom run her in-home daycare, which cares for around 14 children ranging from 3 months to 8 years old. I also nannied a now 5-year-old for 3 years and have become the go-to babysitter for friends and family.

I’m also a Sunday school teacher at Awakening Church in Smithfield, where I work closely with 3–4-year-olds and 6–8-year-olds. My faith plays a big role in how I care for children—with patience, kindness, and love always at the center.

I recently graduated at the top of my class from a charter high school and am now pursuing my dream of becoming a lawyer. I’m bilingual (English & Spanish), responsible, and great at tutoring and homework help. I also have my driver’s license and a flexible schedule. I genuinely love working with kids and always aim to create a safe, uplifting, and engaging environment for them to grow.

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Austin Castillo and I am currently a senior at Providence College with a major in finance. I live in Franklin, Massachusetts, where I attended Bishop Feehan High School. I come from a great, loving family. My father is a veterinarian and my mother is a respiratory nurse (so we are very serious about the virus and are very responsible by keeping clean and being cautious). I have one brother who plays lacrosse at Umass Amherst. We also have two dogs, so I am great with any kind of pets!

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Katarina, I am a Junior at the University of Rhode Island. I commute and I am located in Providence RI. I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy working with children and creating a fun, safe, and comfortable environment for them. I have over four years of babysitting experience caring for children of different ages and helping with everything from playtime and activities to meals, bedtime routines, and homework. I am responsible, patient, dependable, and attentive, and I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident that their children are in good hands. I also have strong communication and time management skills and am comfortable following household routines and parents’ specific instructions.

A little bit about me

Hi All,
I recently moved to Providence for work, and I am hoping to work with a family on a consistent basis as a nanny. I am done with work every day at 3:30, and would be able to help any time after. I am a long time babysitter. I grew up babysitting my cousins after school everyday with all age ranges. Most recently I became an aunt, which has been incredible, and my niece just began to crawl which is super exciting. I have a lot of experience with babies, and toddlers. I will happily meal prep or tidy the area if need be.
