A little bit about me

I’m Isabella and I graduated from ECSU in 2022 with a major in Psychology and a concentration in development and the lifespan. I have been babysitting since I was 13 and have worked with infants through middle schoolers. Since graduating college I have worked with two different families for 2 years each. I love being able to care for kids and to teach them through their favorite activities as well as mine, such as reading and being outside. In the future, I hope to continue working with children and be able to help them as a Child Psychologist.

A little bit about me

I am a compassionate, loving, go with the flow woman who adores children, yet can be firm at times if required. I enjoy bringing my love of art projects, outdoors, healthy foods, Steiner style learning and exploration to children. Interactive choices and empowering others to be confident in their own freewill while still being respectful and honoring of those around them is key. I love the opportunity to get messy, loud and energetic with children... and we clean up afterward, knowing that we had a good, full day.

A little bit about me

Hi families! I’m Alyssa, I live in Westbrook, I’m 23 and have been a nanny for twins for the past 3 and a half years since they were 6 months old. In August my nanny family will be moving out of state and I am looking to find my next long term, full time family.
In addition to my last three years nannying, I have experience as a paraprofessional in an elementary school, and previous to that I have a a few years of experience as a camp counselor and lifeguard. Additionally my family has been doing foster care for the past 12 years so I have gained a lot of experience with children of all ages throughout my time helping raise all the babies who have been through my home.
As a nanny I offer a similar experience to a home daycare, but from the comfort of your own home. I love creating structured days for children, coming up with creative activities to help children reach milestones and overcome obstacles.
Please reach out if you’re looking for long term childcare in the shoreline area.

A little bit about me

I am 29 years old and I have a genuine passion for contributing to the growth and development of young children. I have been in the field of early childhood education for the last 10 years and have really found my niche. Throughout my experience I have become well versed in the educational approaches to development and have also learned to teach to the whole child. I am very experienced in social emotional development and really enjoy to help children develop the skills they need to be able to regulate their own emotions and interact with peers. Since parents are their child's first teachers, I believe it is important to partner with them to best create a positive and nurturing environment.
