Hello! My name is Madlen, I am cape verdean and I have eight years of experience caring for my younger brother, an infant to his current age of eight and my younger cousins. I enjoy helping children learn through play and planning activities that are fun, engaging, and educational. My goal is always to make sure your child feels safe, happy, and cared for! I also have experience caring my pets as well since I was 13. I have a 1 year old dog so I’m used to feeding, walking, playing, and giving lots of attention! I like making sure they are safe and comfy. Im a college student in Florida who is patient, calm and friendly, which helps children feel comfortable. Im available weekends all day and some weekday evenings and I'm happy to work with your schedule as much as possible! I follow household rules and routines very carefully and can provide updates of your child's day through messages, calls or in person conversations-any methods that works for you! split my time between Rhode Island and Florida - I'm in Florida during the school year for college and back home in Rhode Island for breaks and summers. I always keep my availability up to date, so you'll know exactly where I am and when. Im comfortable caring for up to three children at once, from infant to preteen! I can also help with homework, meal preparation, light housekeeping, and pet care if need. If you're looking for someone reliable , flexible snd caring, I'd be happy to support your family!

Hi, my name is Winnie! I’m 26 years old and recently moved to Rhode Island from Boston, MA. I offer childcare, pet care, house sitting, and household services. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a Master’s in Social Work with a certification in trauma. I currently work as a clinical social worker at Boston Medical Center, and caring for others has always been at the center of my life. I began working with children at 16 in a small daycare in East Boston, where I am originally from. Over the years, I’ve gained experience with infants, toddlers, and children of different ages. My responsibilities have included: • Creating engaging curriculum for toddlers in both English and Spanish • Managing daily schedules, including naps and mealtimes • Leading crafts, circle time, sensory play, and outdoor activities at the park • Completing medication reports and ensuring a safe, nurturing environment My passion for working with children has grown through these experiences, and I continue to bring patience, creativity, and reliability to every family I work with. Along with childcare, I can also assist with household tasks such as cleaning, organizing, and running errands to help make your day-to-day life a little easier. I am allergic to cats, but I’m more than happy to care for dogs. I am hoping that we can connect soon!

Hi I’m Hannah! I’m a massage therapist and looking for a second job! I am into working out and golfing and painting, hiking too! Love to go to the beach and listen to music. Currently picking up the cooking books and started to cook more too!

Hello! My name is Kennedy, or Ken for short! I am 26 years old and am an elder sister to four younger siblings, who now range from age 12 to 18. I have helped in caring for each of them since I was 12 years old. This has included picking and dropping them off at school, preparing meals, bathing, preparing for bedtime, playing board games, and other fun activities! Outside of my personal experience, I have volunteered for childcare at different organizations in my community as well. I am a recent college graduate with a degree in Psychology and Behavioral Health Studies, and I have experience in studying adolescence and childhood development alongside my hands-on experience. In addition to growing up with many siblings, I also have experience in caring for a broad range of animals, including dogs, cats, chickens, and bearded dragons! I can also provide aid with basic household chores as well. I love working with kids and getting to play again as an adult! Some of my interests include reading, yoga, exploring the outdoors, crocheting, and making jewelry. I currently work as a barista in the mornings and volunteer at a mental health clinic in the afternoons, so my availability is mostly in the evenings, though I am willing to find flexibility on days when I can! I would love to speak more to see if I would be a good fit for you :)

I work in education and grew up with dogs in my family. Since high school and college, I have been dog/pet sitting for different families. I have experience with all different sizes and breeds of dogs all the way from a yorkie to a mastiff. I am adaptable to meet the needs of the pet and care for the pet like they are my own. I am comfortable staying with the pet or doing drop ins. My schedule fluctuates but can be adaptable.
