A little bit about me

Hello my name is Ashley. I have over 10 years of experience with children all ages. I have a certificate in early education which allowed me to watch 6 kids on my own in a daycare setting. I had 5 years working as a child assistant in a daycare and have been babysitting and nannying for over 10 years. I enjoy nature and spending time outside with children as much as possible. I would love to be able to connect with you

A little bit about me

Hello! I've been babysitting since I was 12 years old. Working with kids is where my heart is set. I love to provide a safe, fun, comfortable, and positive environment. I can help with cooking/meal prep, laundry, light housekeeping, errands, grocery shopping, carpool, crafts, remote learning, travel, swimming supervision.

I've helped raised my bonus children, nieces and nephews as they lived with me. They are all grown now. I'm looking to secure a part time or full time position and really become apart of a family and make life a little easier for the parents!

A little bit about me

Hi, I'm Ingrid!! I am a full time student at Worcester State University majoring in Elementary Education with 2 minors: urban studies and business. I'm a dancer on the Worcester State University Dance Team, as well as a regular gym-attendee. I love all things beauty, self-care, and health related. I've danced since I was 3 years old and began teaching at my dance studio at 15 years old. I've always had a passion for working with the youth via teaching, and continued that in the summers as a camp couselor and teaching at dance summer camps. I've always had an affitity for taking care of others; I think it's reflected well in my teaching journey and how I've always been there for the children I've worked with in the past despite how I was doing personally. I'm a hard worker who prioritizes success and growth, and of course staying positive and having a good attitude in bad situations. I love spending time with my loved ones, taking my dog on walks, and making new memories. Thank you! :)
