Caron $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello families! My journey in childcare began in high school when I helped at my aunt’s daycare, and I’ve been dedicated to working with children ever since. For 7 years, I worked with the YMCA as both a counselor and Assistant Director, supporting children ages 5–12 in after school and summer camp programs. I also gained hands-on experience caring for infants and toddlers in the YMCA daycare. I now serve as a substitute teacher with Boston Public Schools while completing my BA in Early Education & Care in Inclusive Settings. This role has strengthened my ability to adapt to different classrooms, support diverse learners, and build meaningful connections with children of all ages. As a mom myself, I understand the importance of finding someone you can truly trust with your little ones. Families describe me as fun, empathetic, and creative. I love making learning and play engaging, and I take pride in ensuring every child feels safe, supported, and valued. My schedule is flexible, and I’m happy to work with you to meet your family’s needs.

Hello! My name is Lily. I am 23 years old and I recently graduated in 2025 from Boston University Wheelock College with an undergraduate degree in Education and Human Development with a concentration in Child and Adolescent Mental Health. I have been working since September 2025 as a 1st grade general classroom Paraprofessional in a Brookline Public School. I love my job and work with lots of different kids with many different needs! I have lots of experience working with students with mild to moderate Autism and hope to obtain my masters in Special Education this coming fall. I have been babysitting and nannying since I was 13 years old and have experience ranging from toddlers to preteens. I am happy to incorporate learning into my time with your child and can plan fun activities, or take them to the park to play, whatever your goal is! I am happy to do light household chores and cook for your child. I am open to anything from occasional babysitting to a full-time nanny position from now until school begins in September. Looking forward to speaking to you:)

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
