Find an emergency babysitter in Allston, MA

Hi! My name is Sofia, and I'm originally from Seattle, Washington. I have a passion for working with children, and have 8+ years of experience in babysitting/childcare positions. I am currently a 4th year international business student at Northeastern University. Since moving to Boston for school, I am looking forward to continue working with children and families in the Boston area! In my hometown of Seattle, I worked as a volunteer (later promoted to paid) reading coach for 2nd and 3rd-grade students at Team Read for 3 semesters. Additionally, I volunteered as a camp counselor at Girls Rock Math for two summers, leading 1st through 8th-grade girls in educational and social camp activities. Furthermore, I have regularly babysat and nannied for numerous families in the Seattle area, including families with as many as 4 children, ages 0-16. I would be more than happy to provide references upon request! Having grown up with a younger sister, I have been around children my entire life. To every family I work with, I bring my creativity, imagination, bubbly personality, and organizational skills. I look forward to hearing from you!

Hello! I am a student at Northeastern University here in Boston, but am originally from Southern California. I am currently studying Math and Data Science. I have been in childcare for over five years now, and have extensive experience with children of all ages. I have made long term connections with families in California, and am looking to make some here in Boston! My experience includes caring for multiple children, cooking, cleaning, bathing, taking to school/activities, and entertaining multiple children at once. I am mainly looking for nights and weekends as I am currently working a full-time internship. Looking forward to meeting you and your family!

Hi! My name is Malika, I am a Biology student at Northeastern University. I have been babysitting and looking after pets since I was 15/16. I have been with twins, toddlers, several dogs and have loved spending time with them! I am very enthusiastic and am also up for running errands and keeping homes clean and tidy.

I am college student here at Fisher College looking to help out on my free time. I was a preschool teacher for 1-3 year olds during the summer and I loved working and teaching them. I also have a passion for animals and my whole life I have lived and grown up with dogs and cats. I have a dog named Maia and a cat named Beatrice so any help needed with pets are my expertise. I am very passionate about what I do and want to always provide the best support and help for any client or parents (pet parents too!).

Nannied for a family of 4 (full-time) for 15 years. Overnight, Vacations and Daily care. I use a variety of different child-care philosophies (e.g. RIE, attachement, gentle care giving) I would say I am most aligned with “holistic” care-giving. Dependent of what each persons specific needs are. Meeting peoples emotional needs and watching them thrive is a great joy of mine. Full spectrum doula. Newborn and Night Nanny. Confident in gentle sleep training. (not crying it out) I’ve been involved in the homeschool/unschooling community for 15+ years. I have a degree in psychology, specifically behavior modification, and feel confident giving care to anyone with low-moderate needs. I am also a certified yoga teacher and was a lifeguard for many years. I am experienced in light household chores as well as having deep roots in nutrition, specifically anti-inflammatory diets. My personality is generally relaxed but I am fiercely loyal to the children in my care, meaning I need to work with a family that also views their child/children as complete people and treats them with respect. :) Also I appreciate adults who can be forward and up front about their boundaries and what they want from a caregiver.
