Booked by 1 family in East Hampton, CT

I have 8+ years of experience in childcare and teaching ballet. I grew up in a large family and have had many childcare and teaching jobs over the past years. Working with children is something I enjoy doing on a weekly basis, as I'm a ballet instructor for a couple studios in the area! I like teaching children concepts and watching them grow in their understanding of them. I've done coursework in Early Childhood Development and would be happy to tutor and assist with online learning. I am also happy to help with Driving, Housekeeping, Laundry, etc. I'm looking for a job with hours mostly in the afternoons and evenings (after I get out of the studio) and weekends.

$18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Alyssa and I’m new to this site and a little unsure of how things work but I’m gonna tell you a little about myself. I’m currently in school to get my nursing degree and I have 3 more years to go! I’m originally from Ohio and moved here around 8 months ago and am expecting my first child in January. I don’t have over the table experience but I’ve grown up raising my siblings and little cousins. I absolutely love toddlers, even the terrible two’s because they’re brand new to the world and just need understanding and time to learn how to express how they feel. I prefer working with younger kids but older children are absolutely okay too! One of my passion’s definitely includes animals. I love them all! I’ve had experience with cats, dogs, hamsters, guinea pigs, and also baby animals like kittens and puppies. I was raised on a farm and so I’ve grown up taking care of animals. I don’t typically do housekeeping, but I can absolutely do a little cleanup while I babysit and of course clean up any mess that is made while I’m there! Having any stranger in your home while you’re away can definitely be nerve wracking, especially to watch your children or animals. You’re taking a risk. I promise anyone I work with, that I am safe and trustworthy and I would never put anyone in my care at risk. I expect the same courtesy of insuring my own safety as well! Thank you so much for reading, I hope to work with you soon!

Liziris East Hartford
$18 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Liziris, and I’m 19 years old. I have about 2–3 years of childcare experience, both personally and professionally. I currently work at a daycare, and I’m also a proud mom to a beautiful 4-month-old baby girl. Caring for children is something I truly love. I enjoy playing, teaching, and helping little ones learn and grow while making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’m comfortable with all aspects of childcare — from feeding, bathing, and diaper changes to planning fun and educational activities. I’m also comfortable around pets (dogs and cats, just no aggressive animals) and can help with feeding and light care. In addition, I don’t mind pitching in with simple household tasks like washing dishes, sweeping, or tidying up. I’m comfortable caring for up to 3–4 children at a time, or up to 3 children if pets are included. I take my job seriously and always treat every child as if they were my own — with kindness, patience, and full attention. Any child in my care will be safe, loved, and well looked after! 💕

$20 per hour for 1 child

I am a loving mother of two boys and a devoted wife, and I know firsthand how hard it can be to leave your children in someone else’s care. As a stay-at-home mom, I understand the trust parents place in a caregiver and take that responsibility to heart. I am patient, nurturing, and committed to creating a safe, happy, and supportive environment for children. I also love to cook and enjoy preparing warm, home-cooked meals that bring comfort and joy to the whole family.
