A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Ashley, and I'm a caring and experienced childcare provider with a strong background working with children of all ages-from newborns to 12 years old. I've worked in both elementary school and preschool settings, as well as specifically as an infant teacher, so I'm very comfortable supporting developmental needs at every stage. In addition to classroom experience, I've also nannied for a family with five children, which has strengthened my ability to stay organized, patient, and attentive in busy environments while still making sure each child feels seen and supported.
I truly enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing space where kids can learn, grow, and be themselves. Whether it's helping with routines, engaging in creative play, or supporting learning activities, I bring a positive and dependable energy to every family I work with.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name Sol (legal name: Hailey Gaebel) and I'm a a registered Behavioral Therapist who specializes in working with children and adults on the autism spectrum. I have over 5 years of experience in behavior therapy and over 15 years of experience in caretaking with infants, children and adults. My philosophy centers on creating a safe, nurturing and stimulating environment that fosters independence and curiosity. I believe a combination of routine and novel experiences are what children thrive on. I focus on positive reinforcement to promote learning and teach age appropriate co/self regulation skills to foster safety and emotional regulation. Every child is different and I pride myself on being flexible for both the child’s and parent’s needs.

A little bit about me

Hi there,

I am currently working as a live-in nanny and am looking to make a transition at the end of the summer.

My past work and personal history displays a dedication to childcare and children's advocacy. I have worked as a live-in nanny for 2. 5 years now, for families in Italy, London, and Connecticut.

I have worked as a counselor at a kids summer camp, led a kids study group, served at an orphanage in Guatemala and volunteered at a children's health clinic in Uganda. Through nannying, I have gained valuable skills in various aspects of childcare, such as preparing meals and snacks, organizing educational and outdoor activities, helping with homework, encouraging language learning and emotional regulation practice, mediating conflict, establishing consistent routine, helping with bed and bath time, taking the kids safely to and from school and extracurriculars, and generally providing care and support.

I am happy to provide references and a resume upon request!
