Availability: looking for primarily evenings/date nights Hello Parents! My name is Courtney and I'm currently an ICU nurse. I have been working as a nanny off Urbansitter for about 8 years and absolutely I love it! I think my favorite part about being a nanny so far has been being a positive role model for young kids. Currently I am working on finishing nursing school and currently I have my EMT license and am BLS certified. Most recently I worked as an EMT at a summer camp these past two summers. By having many different types of childcare jobs I have had the opportunity to work with all age groups from 4 weeks- 16 years old. I am excited to meet more families in the area and if you have any questions don't hesitate to reach out! Frequently Asked Questions: What do I expect from parents? Good communication and being honest with me. This allows me to do the best job possible taking care of your little one :) Are you CPR certified? Yes! Since August 2021. I also have had my EMT license and BLS certification since March 2022 as well as my ACLS and PALS certifications Are you vaccinated? Yes! I am up to date on all my vaccines including COVID (including first, second, and booster) Will you wear a mask around me and my family? Yes, I can! Just let me know if you would like that What if I come home early? Will I still be charged for the full time? Yes, due to me setting time aside in my schedule for an agreed upon amount of hours I do expect full payment. Please let me know if you have any questions! I look forward to hearing from you :)

Booked by 1 family in Berlin, MA

My name is Jessica, and I’m 28 years old. I have a degree in Early Childhood Education and over six years of experience caring for children of all ages which gave me valuable hands-on experience with child development and daily family routines. I consider myself an active, patient, organized, honest, kind, creative, and loving person. I enjoy spending time outdoors, traveling, and connecting with nature. As a nanny and babysitter, I love planning fun and meaningful activities such as arts and crafts, dancing, painting, board games, nature walks, and more. I truly enjoy supporting children’s growth through playful and engaging experiences. I’m also a native Spanish speaker, and if you’re interested, I’d be happy to introduce your children to the Spanish language through songs, stories, games, and everyday conversation. Currently, I work with a wonderful family with three kids during the week and have been with them for the past two years. They would be happy to provide references. I’m now looking for occasional babysitting opportunities in the evenings and on weekends. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children, helping with bedtime routines, and keeping things tidy and comfortable for families. Thank you for visiting my profile. I look forward to meeting you and your little ones soon!

Jessica was amazing and helped us feel very comfortable leaving our son in her care. She was prompt and very caring with our one year old who bonded with her immediately!
