Hello, my name is Caroline. I’m offering child care, senior care and household services. I love taking care of children and seniors. I have been taking care of children since I was 16 years old. My responsibilities included bringing them home from/to school, crafts, tutoring, and all personal care of child. I have taken care of my grandma and my grandpa, so I feel comfortable with senior care. I can do any chores and enjoy cooking, as well.
About me: My name is Daniella, I'm 40yrs old and I've been babysitting since the age of 13. Although I have a full-time career as an accountant, I still babysit part-time. I think kids are amazing. I love babysitting because it's completely different from what I do on a daily basis. Kids always teach me something new about life or remind me of the great things that I forgot about. I enjoy playing games and reading to kids. I think kids really enjoy it when I read to them because I do all of the voices! In my free time I enjoy painting, and traveling, and I am studying French. Availability: Friday - Sunday evenings. Please see my calendar for up-to-date availability. POLICY: *4 HOUR MINIMUM FRIDAYS - SUNDAYS* *CANCELLATION NOTICE: 48 HOURS. FEE OF 50% TIME BOOKED IF LESS THAN 48 HOURS NOTICE GIVEN*
“She was wonderful with my son, communicate well, and very helpful.”
As an educated and experienced early childhood professional, I know how to make the most of teachable moments in everyday experiences. I spent my first career working with children and families in various educational settings, with children from birth through the teenage years, and understand the critical development happening during these different stages. Now I work as a family therapist, and I love to provide babysitting services as a way of staying connected to my roots! I enjoy getting to know each child as an individual, and creating the best environment for them. I have worked with children, teens, and young adults with varying needs, including children with autism, Down syndrome, epilepsy, asthma, and moderate to severe behavioral diagnoses. I am comfortable with and trained to administer medications, including epi-pens. I have experience with cloth diapering, baby led weaning, and various parenting styles- it’s important for me to connect with the way you prefer your child to be interacted with.
“Liza is incredible. Our kid, who is a little shy, took to her immediately. She has an amazing energy about her, and clearly loves children. Highly recommend!”
I have been working in the field of Occupational Therapy for 33 years, 17 of them in the schools with children with special needs. I have raised three children of my own and have 5 delightful Grandchildren. I like to plan fun age and developmentally appropriate activities to assist in developing self-esteem, creativity, self-expression, curiosity, character and compassion. I enjoy seeing and assisting children thrive in a safe and nurturing environment. My Grandchildren know that "Nana's" most important job is keeping them safe. I encourage children to problem solve and to communicate openly. Communication is key in all my relationships no matter the age. I was a life guard as a young adult, a Girl Scout leader and volunteered for outdoor adventure companies that work with the physically challenged population. I even taught adaptive PE for a term. I co-owned an organic farm CSA for 10 joyous years. We also made herbal products and sold them at the Farmer's Market. I am an animal lover as well so be assured that your pets will also receive attention. Some call me the dog or the cat-whisperer... (Side note: I am a petsitter as well). I don't watch much TV as there are too many other choices as my interests are numerous from backpacking, kayaking, traveling especially in the developing world, volunteering, spending time with animals, my family and friends and of course my Grandchildren, reading, music, the performing arts, skiing, crocheting, yoga, crafts, gardening and trying to make this world a little more kind, more fun, lighter... Life is to be celebrated as it is a gift to share and enjoy with others and possibly to make their life a bit easier along the way.
“Susan was on time, respectful of both of my kids’ separate needs and came with activities and ideas to engage them. She drove my kids to OT appts daily and kept me updated about the information that was shared.”
