Find an after school nanny in Ansonia, CT

I’m a patient person. I enjoy being surrounded by kids. I have 6 years experience in the field. I believe children are the most beautiful gift someone can ever receive. I like to educate my littles pumpkins, what’s better than taking good care and educate them at the same time. I’m bilingual Spanish-English and I’m always open to teaching them my native language which is Spanish if the parents are comfortable with it. Feel free to contact me at any time.

Hello my name is Maria. I am a mother to 3 children and have had experience with taking care of children for more than 10 years. I have a bit of trouble speaking English however I have the experience to take care of children from a variety of ages.

I've always been someone who enjoys helping others, so becoming a caregiver felt like a natural fit for me. Over the past five years, I've loved getting to know the children and families I've worked with and being someone they can count on. Watching children learn, grow, and develop their own personalities is one of the most rewarding parts of caregiving, and I love being a positive and dependable person in their lives. As I work toward becoming a social worker, I hope to build a career centered around supporting others. Caregiving has allowed me to gain meaningful experience while doing something I truly enjoy. I'm CPR, First Aid, and AED certified through my experience as a lifeguard, and I strive to create a safe, caring, and encouraging environment for every child. I have also been a swim coach for 5+ years and have fostered a fun yet encouraging environment for kids to enjoy the sport as well as grow and feel proud of themselves. I have done a bunch of dog sitting and babysitting. I enjoy cleaning and cooking as well as getting to know the family I am looking after and making them the priority. I'd describe myself as organized, compassionate, and hardworking. In my free time, I enjoy staying active at the gym, reading, and coloring as a way to relax, recharge, and stay creative. I think it’s important to help kids be creative as well as encouraging their curiosity, confidence, and individuality, along with being a support system for the family.

I have been working with families since 2009 as well as raising my own 3 children. I am a college graduate, and my CPR/First Aid certificates are up to date. I am punctual, reliable, responsible, friendly, and caring, as all my references will attest. I can also help with laundry, meal prep, and dishes. Pets are great if you have any.

I have extensive paid babysitting experience for children from a matter of days old to being old enough to where they don't really need someone to watch them but just in case of emergencies. This experience includes both one-time and long-term babysitting which also includes overnight babysitting. I have over 10 years of experience. I appreciate the trust that parents and guardians put in babysitters to care for their child(ren). I don't know as I am not yet a mother, but I can only imagine how nerve-racking it can be to leave your whole world in the hands of someone else. I love getting to hang out with kids of all different ages and getting to know their personalities. My goal is not to seem like a scary mean adult but as someone who is fun and cool but still ensuring that safety is the #1 goal.
