Lynndara $23 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I’m a recent graduate student at Merrimack College and I also work full time at RTX. I’m located in Westford, MA Outside of my education and work, I love to be in nature and spend a lot of my time at the beach with friends and family. I love kids and believe I have a great, sociable personality that allows me to understand kids with ease. I have babysat for multiple age groups since the age of 16, and I started in 2015! I have worked in both a summer program and day care, and I have been a personal babysitter for a lovely family in Massachusetts with two 4 year old twins and a 7 year old at the time. I can reference this family for anyone who would like to connect with them! More recently, my best friend had a beautiful baby boy who just turned 4 months and I’ve had the pleasure of being trusted to take care of him. He is truly such a sweet baby, and I believe kids always have the ability to teach me something new. Recently, I have began to help watch my boyfriend’s niece (16 months) and nephew (5yo). I am also an animal lover. I really love dogs and cats and I plan to get one soon. Please feel free to reach out to me about anything at all, and I look forward to servicing you! :)

Estrellita $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Estrellita and I'm a responsible, calm, and caring person who enjoys helping others and creating safe, comfortable environments. I have some previous experience caring for children in my home country, where I worked as a nanny for a family. Through this, I learned the importance of patience, attentiveness, and following routines to ensure children feel secure and well cared for. I am reliable, detail-oriented, and very respectful of each family’s guidelines and parenting style. I take safety seriously and always aim to create a positive and supportive environment. I’m also interested in pet sitting and dog walking, as I feel very comfortable around animals and enjoy giving them attention, patience, and care. I believe clear communication and trust are essential, and I always show up on time and prepared. I’m excited to continue gaining experience and supporting families in a thoughtful and responsible way.

Booked by 2 families in Chelmsford, MA

My name is Kathleen and I have 10+ years of experience with children. I’m a college grad/SAHM to a 4 year old living in Tewksbury. He would not need to come with me. He has autism and does ABA and speech therapy, so I have experience in these areas. I started working as babysitter when I was a teenager and continued to work as a nanny in college. I worked an office job for a few years but started to have some problems with my health (I’m a type 1 diabetic) that led me back into childcare. From 2[removed] I worked as a nanny for a baby girl from age 4 months until she turned 1.5. From 2016-2018 I worked as a nanny for a family members newborn baby who is now 7 years old. From 2019 until 2021 I worked as a sitter and driver for a 4 year old boy in the mornings, got him up and drove him to school and the job evolved into regular babysitting and school pickups. From May 2019 until Christmas 2019 I sat for a one year old baby girl until they put her in full time daycare. I watch a 4 year old boy occasionally starting June 2023. I have a clean background check and great references. I am fully COVID vaccinated. Hope to hear from you! Kathleen

"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."
