A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Taylor and I LOVE kids! I am 22 and I have lots of experience with all age groups and love to provide help whenever I can with things such as laundry, errands, cleaning up, cooking, baking, etc. I live a pretty active lifestyle and love spending time outside when it is nice doing various activities! I love pets as well! I previously worked as a PCA worker for a family who had three children, one of which has Down Syndrome and enjoy working with the special needs population. I have been with the family for 10 years In which my job consisted of pick ups/ drop offs, overnights, day trip help, vacation help, errands, laundry, holiday help (wrapping, baking, writing letters from Santa, being the Easter bunny, etc) meal prep (very familiar with gluten and lactose free diets and allergies) homework help, appointment scheduling, bedtime help. I am just in Maine until the end of August when I move back to VT. My availability is Sunday-Wednesday anytime of the day!

Hello, my name is Laci!
I am a full-time student at SMCC in South Portland Maine earning my degree in Radiology.
I'm looking to nanny part time, as of right now I have class until 11. But when summer comes, I would love a full-time position.
I love to go outside and be active. I am also a member of the women's college basketball team at SMCC, so I understand just how important it is to be active and have fun!
I am 19 years old, I'm also from Vermont. I have been babysitting and nannying for a while now as I use to nanny 4-year-old twin boys all summer, they are now 6! Also, before that I watched two families together. There were two sets of siblings, twin 9 years old boys and an 8-year-old girl with a 9-year-old brother! I watched all four of them every day in summer!
I love kids and enjoy watching them learn and experience new things as their mind grows. I would love to bring the kids to the beach and have lots of time outdoors. Also able to do house day to day chores.
