Grace Boston
$18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Grace, and I’m a first-year student-athlete at Simmons University. I offer child care, household help, and pet care. I’ve been babysitting since high school and have experience with infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids. I also have a background working with children with special needs, including kids on the autism spectrum. I’m patient, calm, and always focused on communication and safety. I am lifeguard-certified and trained in CPR and First Aid, so families can feel confident that their children are in safe hands. I love creating a positive and active environment—whether that means helping with homework, doing crafts, reading, imaginary play, or getting kids outside to burn off energy. Even without car access, I’m great at planning fun activities and keeping kids engaged. As a college volleyball player, I bring strong energy, organization, and reliability to everything I do. Parents can count on me to show up on time, stay engaged, and keep routines running smoothly. I’m also happy to help with meal prep, light cleaning, organizing, and bedtime or morning routines. I’m comfortable with dogs and most pets, and I’m very organized, so helping out around the house or keeping things tidy is no problem. I’d love to get to know your family and help make your weekly routine easier and more enjoyable!

Hi my name is Zahra. I am an 18 year old college student majoring in Nursing. I want to be a pediatric nurse and have always had an interest in working with kids. I currently work at an after school program a few days a week. I have been with them since 2024 so I have experience working with children as young as 5 years old. I am able to do chores around the house, help with homework, and occasionally run errands. I like dancing, playing board games and am open to all other activities!

Melissa Somerville
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Hingham, MA

Hi! I’m Melissa, a 25-year-old living in Somerville, MA. I grew up in Rhode Island, went to college in upstate New York, and moved to Somerville for grad school before settling into my 9 – 5 in downtown Boston doing Data Analytics. I’ve been babysitting for nearly 10 years, caring for kids of all ages, from infants to teens, and have also spent the past 7 years tutoring math and science. I genuinely love working with children, whether that means helping with homework, getting active outdoors, or snuggling up for a movie. My friends describe me as fun, lively, patient, reliable, and outgoing. I played soccer in college and enjoy running, biking, and staying active, but I’m just as happy to get creative with crafts or work through a tough math problem. I once organized a full-day music video production of Katy Perry’s “Firework” with the kids that turned into a true masterpiece and a favorite memory. I’m adaptable and caring, always striving to bring positive energy and support to the families I work with. I look forward to helping your family however I can!

Looking for someone to fill in those last minute days or nights? Having a hard time finding a long term nanny but need someone else during the search? I’m available! I am a Freelance Film Production Coordinator looking for some part time work. I am the oldest of 7 children and have always been around kids. I worked at a daycare throughout high school and college, and then was a nanny for several years. Currently, I help to take care of my nieces and nephews (aged 3months - 5years) as needed. I am very comfortable and confident with all ages. First Aid and CPR Certified. References available.

Kayla was great with both kids. My 4 year old loved talking with her and she had my 2 year old smiling and giggling. We will definitely have her back!
