Hello! My name is Sophia, I’m 22 years old, and currently attending UMass Boston. I’m a caring, patient, and reliable caregiver with hands-on experience in both childcare and dog care. I create a safe, nurturing, and well-organized environment, and I genuinely enjoy supporting children as they learn, play, and grow. I’ve gained valuable experience over the past few years, often assisting my mother in her work as a caregiver. In addition to childcare, I have a deep love for animals, especially dogs, and have several years of experience in dog sitting. I take pride in being attentive, responsible, and compassionate in every role I take on. I have many references I’m able to share with you as well! I’m also new to this app, I usually use care.com! But wanted to give this a try!

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!”
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!
