Sarah-Jane $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I’m a lifelong nurturer originally from England, though I’ve called this country home since I was 21. My journey with children began at Manchester University where I earned my teaching degree, and it continued through the greatest joy of my life: raising my own two sons, who are now grown. For the last 20 years, I’ve dedicated my heart to caring for other families' little ones. I truly believe that every child needs a patient, creative, and friendly soul in their corner. Whether we are exploring the outdoors, getting lost in a board game, or working through a tricky homework assignment, my goal is always to make your child feel seen and supported. I value the trust you place in me, which is why I prioritize clear, gentle communication and a respectful approach to your family’s unique rhythm and rules. I am also fully certified in CPR and First Aid for your peace of mind. I simply love what I do, and I would be honored to bring a bit of extra joy and stability to your child’s world. I look forward to meeting you and your family!"

Winifred $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Winnie! I’m 26 years old and recently moved to Rhode Island from Boston, MA. I offer childcare, pet care, house sitting, and household services. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a Master’s in Social Work with a certification in trauma. I currently work as a clinical social worker at Boston Medical Center, and caring for others has always been at the center of my life. I began working with children at 16 in a small daycare in East Boston, where I am originally from. Over the years, I’ve gained experience with infants, toddlers, and children of different ages. My responsibilities have included: • Creating engaging curriculum for toddlers in both English and Spanish • Managing daily schedules, including naps and mealtimes • Leading crafts, circle time, sensory play, and outdoor activities at the park • Completing medication reports and ensuring a safe, nurturing environment My passion for working with children has grown through these experiences, and I continue to bring patience, creativity, and reliability to every family I work with. Along with childcare, I can also assist with household tasks such as cleaning, organizing, and running errands to help make your day-to-day life a little easier. I am allergic to cats, but I’m more than happy to care for dogs. I am hoping that we can connect soon!
