Hello. My name is Jordan and I’m 22. I have two siblings aged 18 and 11. I have experience babysitting children from the age of 4 months to 12 years old.I also have experience babysitting children with special needs. I’m also very experienced with having more than one little one running around. I have had groups of up to 6 in my private sitting experience. As well as my private experience I also formerly worked as an After School Counselor for the YMCA and as an After School Teacher at Thales Academy (Private school). I’m also a very experienced pet sitter so if you have furry friends I’m all about it too. These are the basics and I’d love to chat with anyone who may have questions!

“Jordan was so kind and friendly with our baby girl. We booked with her twice and both times she arrived early and was respectful of our home. We especially appreciated her responsiveness during the booking process and her ability to communicate with us when we had questions or wanted to check on our little girl!”

40/M/Apex - I grew up with a Golden Retriever named Fenway, a Vizsla named Punkin, and now I have a 4 year old, 6lb Yorkie named Mosby. I have successfully watched a French Bulldog on a few occasions and have been referred to as the BryMCA...so there's that.

I’m a warm, sociable, and genuinely nurturing caregiver who loves spending time with infants and toddlers. Watching little ones discover the world never gets old, and I bring a lot of patience, warmth, and positive energy to every day. I'm well-versed in the routines of infants and toddlers including feeding, BLW, naptime, schedules, and age appropriate activities.

Hi! I am a graduate of UMass Boston with over 10 years of experience working with children. I’ve gained my expertise through roles in Boston Public Schools, Case Manager, two years of nannying for a family with twins, and babysitting for various sitter apps. Throughout my career, I have worked with children of all ages and diverse cultural backgrounds. I am responsible, trustworthy, loving, caring, fun, and active. I enjoy doing arts and crafts and playing sports with kids. I am confident that I will be a great fit for your needs. I look forward to hearing from you!

Lots of experience taking care of cats and dogs. I have pets of my own and have looked after neighborhood animals for many years. I am responsible and caring and would love to take care of your fur babies so you can relax and enjoy some time away.

“Did everything that was needed- took great care of my pets and sent pictures of their happy faces, which I loved seeing.”
