A little bit about me

Hello!
My name is Katie and I have cared for a few children over the years. I’m in the social work field so, I’m also experienced with individuals with disabilities. I’ve worked with people from infancy to the elderly. I have had internships at daycares and senior centers. I’m a very personable person and loyal. I am very truth worthy and empathetic. I have pets, so I am very okay with them!
Ideally, I would love to be able to bring my babies with me sometimes.
Furthermore, I am going to school online to become a Social Worker. My dream is to have my own practice someday helping people. I hope I can be the right fit for you.

A little bit about me

Hi, I am a mom of a 2 year old. I am trying to add some income to my household without putting our little in daycare. Looking to care for your little(s) between the hours of 8am and 6pm. I am not CPR certified currently but have been in the past and can renew it no problem. I am the oldest of 5 children and have been caring for infants since I was 12. I have been at home with my own son since he was 9 months. There are a lot of awesome moments with kids! They are just learning to be little humans and I love the opportunity to see things through their eyes. I have experience with febrile seizures, colic, and some autism. I am able to do light housework or food prep as well as childcare. Please let me know if I sound like the right fit for your family! Thank you!

A little bit about me

Hi there! My name is Shannon. I am 20 years old and currently attend UConn Waterbury, but all of my classes are online. I would love to care for your children and have a lot of fun with them! I consider myself to be very patient and and enthusiastic with kids. I have a 4-year-old cousin that I have been taking care of since she was a newborn and I have volunteered in coaching children in soccer and basketball for many years now. I love spending time with children and I don't see it as a job, more like something I look forward to doing everyday. I also love animals so if you have a couple furry friends then that's even better! I'm looking forward to hearing back from you and meeting your family. Thanks!
