Hi! I’m Lauryn. I’m someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with kids and getting to know their individual personalities. I spent 5 years in child care as a preschool teacher at Action Day Schools, a babysitter for multiple families, and a substitute teacher with Child Care Careers. I can keep kids engaged with games, crafts, creative activities, trips to the park, reading, or simply letting them lead the fun. I’m also happy to help with homework, meals and snacks, bedtime routines, tidying up after activities, and whatever else helps make your evening easier. I am comfortable taking care of children with special needs and have been active in the autism community my whole life as my older brother is autistic. Also, I used to volunteer for 4 years in high school at the local SPCA and am comfortable with any pets you may have :) As a sitter, my priority is making sure your children feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to respect the varying routines and parenting styles of any family. I’ll always keep you updated and make sure you feel confident that your little ones are in good hands :) I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and be a helping hand when you need it! 💕
Hi - my name is Sinead and I’m originally from Ireland. I am currently nannying for a sweet 14 month old boy and a 6 month old girl Monday to Thursday! Looking for a job every Friday if possible and occasional weekend jobs. I love being a babysitter and have been watching toddlers and kids since I was 15 years of age. I have worked with children from many different ages - infants up to teenagers. I am an auntie for five wonderful nieces and nephews so I understand how busy family life can get. Ive worked in many different industries over the years so I am no stranger to work as a household assistant and can cook, clean and run errands. I also happy to work with families that have animals.
Hello families! I am active, energetic and compassionate when it comes to working with your kids. I like to focus on human development with the help of nature and staying away from screens. Feel free to learn more about the way I operate
“Natasa was wonderful with my kids, two dogs, and 2 cats! She was with our family for 3 years- until the kids started school. We loved having her high energy and great attitude sing through the halls of our home. She's caring, understanding and creative- your kids will be lucky to have her.”
My name is Caitlin and I am a fully qualified early childhood educator with eight years of professional experience. I love working with young children and guiding them through their development, and enjoy engaging in fun activities with them such as art projects, pretend play and reading books. Building trusting relationships with children is something I take pride in, and I am known for my calm and nurturing personality. I am currently a lead preschool teacher, working with children ages 3-5, and have also been lead teacher for a two year-old class. I have earned a bachelor's degree in Child-Adolescent Development, along with a minor degree in Special Education. Other certifications I have include child and adult CPR and first aid.
“A wonderful teacher we have worked with at our school. She is beloved by all the kids for her easygoing manners and especially our own kid as well. We are always delighted to have her over!”
