Hi, my name is Aneila! I’m a student that just turned 21 years old and I love being around children! I grew up watching kids my whole life so it’s all I’ve ever known. I’ve babysat family & friends children’s but never as an actual job. I have also worked at boys and girls club with kids throughout many different ages, working with over 20+ children even alone. I say that me being able to enjoy a job working and being able to provide for children makes me a great caregiver because I’ll never not enjoy it. I hope you can trust me to be your caregiver! :)
Introduction: Hello! While I’m somewhat new to finding caregiving and housekeeping jobs online, I’ve had a fair amount of experience watching infants and children as well as most pets. Babysitting my little cousins (ages 3,5,8) is an absolute joy for me since I genuinely enjoy taking care of others and keeping things in order. I am also able to watch dogs, cats, chickens, all rodents, snakes, goats, and reptiles, (have either had one or pet-sat one) but would be happy to receive instruction on how to take care of something not included on that list! Personal Background: I graduated with the class of 2024 from Portsmouth High School in June with a GPA of 3.7 and would like my future to be full of traveling, ceramics, and cooking. With a French mom and Canadian father, I was raised bilingual in French and English but have also learned some basic Spanish, Italian, and Russian. Having another language in the house is a plus for me, and I do offer French tutoring! I also have a twin sister who I grew up traveling to and around Europe with whenever we would visit family with our mom. I am happy to do crafts, go on walks or play outside, help with homework, read, cook, clean, or whatever else you might need for your kids, pets, and homes!

Hi! My name is Sam, and I have over 10 years of experience caring for children of all ages — from infants to pre-teens. I’m passionate about creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment where kids can learn and grow. I’m dependable, patient, and love engaging kids through crafts, reading, and outdoor activities. My goal is always to make sure your children feel happy, supported, and secure while you’re away.
With over 30 years of hands-on childcare experience and two grown children of my own (ages 26 and 22), I bring both professional and personal insight into caring for children of all ages. I am CPR and First Aid Certified (including infant and child CPR), ServSafe Manager Certified, and hold a ServSafe Allergen certicate. I am a dependable and nurturing caregiver who values structure, creativity, and patience. I have a clean, safe driving record and am fully capable of handling transportation needs, meal prep, light housekeeping, and homework help. I’d love to bring my warmth and experience to support your family’s needs in a part-time nanny role.

"Caitlin was awesome and jumped right in to chaperone four girls (10, 9, 8 and 6) at a family wedding (they were bridesmaids) and she was very helpful with the event as well as taking them home and putting them to bed."
Lila P., parent

"McKenna was great with our 3 year old son! She came prepared with a box of fun activities and handled playing, dinner, and bedtime seamlessly... and it was all at our hotel while we were in town for a wedding. Thank you McKenna!"
