A little bit about me

Hi. My name is CJ and I am looking for a full time and live in nanny job for the next year. Something like July 2022 to August 2023. I am in my first year of post grad from the University of Vermont. I am finishing my BA in Sociology, Gender Studies, and History.

I have been babysitting and working with kids in numerous capacities since I was ten. I started as a mother's helper, and since then I have worked as a private babysitter, a gym childcare worker, and for the last year and a half, as an after school care worker. I love making direct connections with kids and becoming consistent supports in their lives. At the center of my childcare philosophy is love, trust, and respect! I love to cook and teach kiddos to cook; I also thrive in having tough but age appropriate conversations with kids, when granted permission by parents.

I would love to speak with you more, thanks for your time!

A little bit about me

Hi! I'm a college student who is moving to Rhode Island after living in Connecticut my whole life. I have always loved helping out with children and have been working with children since I was 12, I have watched children as young as 2 months and as old as 13. This past year I spent most of my time working as a shared nanny for two families each with young children. I mostly watched after a 8-month-old and a 4-month-old, while occasionally doing date nights with each individual family. Before that I was working at a Montessori school where I was able to learn a lot about that method of teaching as well working with a range of students with different backgrounds and abilities. I'm currently studying to be a Speech Language Pathologist, but before that I was studying Sign Language Interpreting which I still have a strong interest in and love to incorporate with the children I work with. I'm hoping to find a family to start working for in September since that's when I will be moved in.

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Caitlin and I am a 23 years old living in Providence. I graduated from URI last year and have been working as a preschool teacher since August! In my current role I work with primarily three years olds where I’ve gained classroom management skills as well as lesson planning to make sure the kids are having fun while learning! I have also spent four summers working as a camp counselor (primarily ages 5-9), where I developed skills in supervising groups, planning engaging outdoor activities, and always ensuring children’s safety. I also have experience nannying/babysitting for families. I am looking for a position where I will be able to work full time (35+) hours a week M-F through the summer (and potentially longer if applicable). I am open to working with 1-2 kids ages 2+ and would also take on any extra duties such as cleaning, cooking, etc! I would love to be able to provide a fun and educational summer for your child!
