Hello! My name is Chante and I am currently a school teacher. Over the summer, I moved to Georgia from New Jersey where I taught Kindergarten for two years and fifth grade for three years. I am currently teaching my fifth year of fifth grade. I teach all elementary school grade level subjects (English/Language Arts, Math, Science and Social Studies). I received my Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education and later went back to further my education by pursuing my Master's degree. I currently hold a Master's in Education: Educational Psychology. My passion for teaching continues to grow as I further my career in education. My goal is to direct my students towards accomplishing all of their goals. I would love to further my passion outside of the classroom and become a tutor or babysitter so that I can continue to help children in any way possible. I am looking forward to connecting with you soon!

Hi! Iβm Julia, an upcoming senior at The College of New Jersey. I have several years of babysitting experience with kids of all ages. I babysat my neighborsβ three young boys for all of my teen years. I often babysit my 5 young cousins ranging from 1 to 10 years old. I worked at Tiny TuTus Dance Center where I interacted with parents and children daily. I volunteered with Saint Charles Borromeo to assist cheerleading coaching where I worked with young girls of all ages. I am responsible and patient, and care very much about creating a safe and fun environment for kids. I love creating the memories that I have with my old babysitters and would love to help out local families!

I have worked in childcare for over 20 years in school and home settings that include nature based care, Montessori, camps, and Waldorf inspired schools. In my most recent experience working at a Childrenβs Center, we practiced a form of care centered around respect and the Magda Gerber approach to children known as RIE (resources for infant educators). I am happy to talk more about this if you are interested in learning more. I have a bachelorβs degree in Studio Art and have studied Yoga and the Healing Arts as well as Permaculture. I recently stepped away from working at a childrenβs center in Brunswick because I need a part time job in order to pursue my Farm business. I am CPR certified. I am looking for an opportunity local to Brunswick Maine and have worked with all ages from infants to teens. I also love to cook and specialize in plant based and gluten free cooking. I am happy to do home chores, prepare meals, care for pets, etc. Your childβs time with me would be lead by their interests and dependent on your values. I personally value time spent in nature, setting an example in land stewardship and respect for all living things, creative expression, and providing loving care. If you think I would be a good fit for your family, please reach out to my email jenknoeller@gmail.com or text/call me 631-809-9200.

Hello! My name is Hayley and I have been a paid babysitter/nanny since I was 10! My parents thought getting experience early was key, so they threw me in a room with kids only a few years younger than me and said, "good luck!" Little did I know in that moment, that I would absolutely fall in love when it comes to caring for children. Since then I have set myself up to gain as much experience with kids as I possibly could. I volunteered at my local library's children's section andI volunteered in my town's Safety Town. Through those outlets I met parents and became a 'Mother's Helper' throughout middle school. Once I got to highschool I enrolled in a laboratory preschool class where I was taught child development and given the opportunity to demonstrate my lessons by working in the school's preschool classroom.When I entered college I continued babysitting and working in daycare settings while obtaining my Associate's of Science degree in Early Childhood Education. I transferred to a 4 year university and earned my Bachelor's of Art degree in Family and Child Studies.After graduating, I got a full time nanny job and kept that job for 2 years until I moved to across the country in 2020.Since then I have been working with children with disabilities as a Behavioral Interventionist at a Developmental Disabilities Agency (DDA).My husband and I will be relocating to Auburn, KY at the end of April where I can pick up my passion for nannying once again.
