Jordan Holden
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I’m Jordan and I have been working in childcare since 2015. I went to a tech high school and got my preschool certification there and then went on to a community college and got certified with working with infants and toddlers. Working with children is my passion and it fills my heart with so much joy! I’m patient, loving, a big kid at heart, and give my all with everything that I do. I am mainly looking for night care and occasional date nights. I look forward to meeting you!

Nicole Worcester
$18 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Nicole and I am a 20 year old student-athlete who is back in town for winter break. I have grown up surrounded by so much family, which I am extremely grateful for. I have years of experience watching three of my younger cousins, ages from an infant, a three year old, and a five year old. Additionally, I watched over my high school volleyball coach’s three kids with similar ages, and several different families who associated with her! My mom raised three children herself, so I understand how difficult it can be to balance work and finding care for your child. While I’m home, I’d love to help as much as possible with the additional time I have!

Sabrina Clinton
$19 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Sabrina — a college student and part-time Behavior Therapist with a passion for working with children. I’ve been a BT for the past year, supporting kids with autism and a wide range of behavioral needs, from ages 2 to 11. I’ve received professional training in managing tantrums, emotional regulation, and challenging behaviors—and I genuinely love what I do. I can clean, provide transportation, play, and do other necessary tasks! I’m also CPR certified (as of March) and always prioritize creating a safe, supportive, and fun environment for every child in my care. Whether you’re looking for someone patient, energetic, or experienced with special needs, I’m here to help. I’m excited to meet your family and provide the best care possible!

Javea Brattleboro
$20 per hour for 1 child

I’ve been a CNA since the beginning of the year and have always had a heart for caregiving. As the oldest of four, I naturally took on the role of caretaker for my younger siblings, which helped shape my nurturing and patient personality. I love caring for others and making sure they feel safe, seen, and supported. Whether it’s helping with kids, assisting seniors, or providing household support, I move with compassion, responsibility, and love. Babysitting comes naturally to me—this is more than a job, it’s something I genuinely enjoy.
