Hi! My name is Brenda and I graduated from UMaine in 2022 with a degree in Child Development and Family Development with a concentration in Early Childhood Education. I’ve been working in childcare for almost two years. I work with 2-3 year olds mostly. I love what I do and I love children.

Hi there! I’m Alyssa — a lifelong animal lover, coffee enthusiast, and proud pet parent. My heart has always belonged to animals. I grew up snuggling with our family Rottweilers (Greta, Mugs, and Ossa) and now share my home with two lovable giant breed Swiss Mountain Dogs, Kimber & Fiona. I have years of experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes. From my furry best friends Kimber & Fiona, to cats, parrots, chickens, horses, sheep, and even fish. Whether it’s a playful pup, a shy kitty, or a feathered friend, I understand that each animal has their own unique personality and needs. As a fellow pet owner, I know how important it is to feel confident that your animals are safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. You can count on me to be responsible, reliable, and fully dedicated to keeping tails wagging and whiskers twitching in your absence.

I have two adult children. I currently work as an RN/paraprofessional for individuals with disabilities ages 5-22. When my children were younger I coached several sports teams. I also watched children in my home for several years.

Hello! I am experienced in various forms of childcare; I’ve been babysitting since I was a preteen, I have about a year and a half of infant and toddler daycare experience, and have over four years of experience working with autistic children of nearly all ages. Most recently I’ve been working as a preschool and kindergarten classroom aide, and with the summer break approaching I’m looking for a summer job that could hopefully transition to a part-time gig during the school year.

I have experience in childcare as an employee at a summer camp. I have also worked with adolescents with special needs and taken care of my 8 month old niece. I also have plenty of experience caring for animals. I have taken animal science courses and even been employed at an animal hospital. Lastly, I have experience keeping houses tidy and caring for plants.
