Booked by 27 families in Readville, MA

I have experience working with school age children age 5-13. I have experience with infants as well as toddlers. I also have my own child who is 8 years old and raised him mostly on my own since infancy. I also have 13 years experience working with the elderly in a home care setting. I have had pets before too and love animals so I love pet sitting as well. I currently live pet free, but don’t mind watching your lovely companion. I am CPR/First Aid certified as well as have my EEC certification and recent CORI check done. I also have experience working with special needs children that have autism and other disorders.

Isabella was wonderful! My toddler loved her and was comfortable with her right away. She took my toddler out on many outdoor adventures and kept her safe, happy, and entertained!

$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in Readville, MA

I have several years of experience providing reliable babysitting, cat sitting, and house sitting services. My passion for working with children led me to spend this past summer at a daycare clinic, where I gained valuable experience caring for children with autism. This opportunity deepened my understanding of children’s unique needs and reinforced my commitment to fostering a safe, nurturing environment for them. I will always do everything in my power to ensure both children and parents feel comfortable and confident in my care.

Molly is great! She is reliable and professional. My two children are very different - one is outgoing and extroverted and the other is cautious and slow to engage. Molly intuitively understood what each of them needed and helped them both get comfortable with her. My kids have already asked me when she is coming over again.

Mei 2 reviews
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hello everyone, my name is Mei. I’m a 26-year-old full-time mental health therapist with a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I work with clients of all ages, but I have a special passion for working with children and young adults. I’ve been a nanny and babysitter on and off for the past 6 years for children ranging from 10 months to 12 years old, and I have experience caring for up to three children at a time. I’m CPR certified and have a reliable new car. I have additional trainings and certifications related to supporting children’s emotional and mental well-being. I bring a calm, patient, and caring approach to childcare and really value meeting children where they are. My professional experience has given me a strong understanding of child development, communication, emotional regulation, and creating a safe and supportive environment for kids. I’m currently looking for part-time or occasional babysitting opportunities, including date nights, weekend care, or other occasional childcare needs. As the cost of living continues to increase, I’m hoping to use my childcare experience to earn some supplemental income while continuing to do something I genuinely enjoy! When I’m babysitting, I love getting to know each child and finding activities they genuinely enjoy. I’m always happy to get creative with arts and crafts, read books, play outside, or come up with fun indoor activities. I believe babysitting should be more than simply supervising children. I want kids to feel comfortable, heard, and engaged while their parents are away. I’m also happy to prepare simple meals or snacks when needed and help with light tidying related to the children. Most importantly, I want parents to feel confident that their children are in caring, responsible, and capable hands. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and help make your time away from your little ones as easy and stress-free as possible!

Mei has been an incredible addition to our family, consistently demonstrating patience, reliability, and a genuine warmth with our children. Her ability to handle daily routines while keeping the kids engaged in creative activities has been a huge relief for us. We recommend her without hesitation to any family looking for a trustworthy and nurturing caregiver.

Booked by 4 families in Readville, MA

Hello I’m Scarlen! I am a Licensed Nursing Assistant at Massachusetts General Hospital and have six years of experience working with children from 7 months to 14 years old. I am fluent in Spanish and passionate about providing safe, attentive, and nurturing care while building positive connections with children and families. I am certified in Basic Life Support (BLS) and CPR, allowing me to respond quickly and responsibly in emergency situations. I bring patience, creativity, and structure to every environment, helping children feel both supported and engaged with. Outside of work and school, I enjoy traveling, nature, and spending time with my younger siblings. I would be happy to get to know you and your family better and provide support in any way you may need.

Our two little boys loved Scarlen! She was prompt and communicative, very positive and kind with the boys, and she was playful while in control. They took to her instantly and got to bed without issue. She’s a wonderful sitter!
