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! :)

Cindy $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Cindy, I’m located in Nashua, NH, and I’m happy to travel up to 45 minutes for the right nanny position. My current nanny position is in Salem, NH, which is about 45 minutes from my home. I am looking for a full time Nanny position. I start at $25/hr depending on the amount of children and the circumstances. I’d love to tell you a little bit about myself, my experience as a nanny, and the ways I can also support your family as a helpful household manager. I hope this gives you a better sense of who I am and the kind of care I provide. 💙 As a Nanny I am a very patient, nurturing, and compassionate person who truly believes that children thrive when they feel safe, loved, understood, and supported. When a child is struggling or acting out, I believe in taking the time to understand what they are communicating rather than simply reacting to the behavior. I use a variety of positive behavioral techniques that help me connect with children and respond to them in ways that are appropriate for their age and individual needs. Understanding how a child’s developing brain processes emotions, communication, and experiences allows me to approach challenging moments with patience and compassion. Every child is different, and I believe in learning who each child is and finding the approach that works best for them. I have experience caring for children from infancy through age 14. 👩‍⚕️ Education, Training & Experience Some of my relevant qualifications and experience include: Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) First Aid certified Adult and Infant/Child CPR certified SIDS trained Daycare certified through a previous daycare position, which required approximately 400 hours of work experience and completion of 12 Care Courses CDA training in teaching School drop-offs and pick-ups Transportation to and from extracurricular activities Experience caring for children across a wide range of ages and developmental stages 🌱 Activities I Enjoy With Children Infants: I love engaging babies through age-appropriate sensory activities involving touch, sight, and sound. I also enjoy reading books, singing, talking with them, and going outside for walks and fresh air. Toddlers: I enjoy sensory activities, introducing ABCs, counting to 10, learning colors, and beginning to introduce the days of the week and months of the year. Reading, music, creative play, and plenty of outdoor time are also favorites. Ages 4–5: I enjoy building on the skills they began learning as tod

Karen $18 per hour for 1 child

I have experience with all ages of children and working with the senior population as well. I love to immerse myself into the world of the "littles" and see things through their eyes. It is amazing to watch them learn and grow when you become united in their daily activities. With the senior population, I love listening to their stories and letting them enjoy bringing their past experiences into any present situations we are currently enjoying. I also have experience with those that have memory issues and understand how to help them through their frustrations when needed.

"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."
