Sarina Dorchester
$20 per hour for 1 child

As an older sibling of three, I have been taking care of little ones since I can remember. I babysat neighbors and family friends since I was 14, and have worked with children of all ages in school-based settings throughout high school and college. I grew up with dogs and cats and am familiar and comfortable taking care of furry friends as well. Currently, I am a Master's of Social Work student at Simmons University and work at a group home with teenagers. I am very comfortable around kids of all ages and can be kind, playful, and compassionate while reinforcing expectations. I have experience working with youth with complicated mental health diagnoses and complex needs, as well as neurodivergent kiddos. I am also extremely clean, able to take care of house plants, and love to cook! In my free time, I enjoy knitting, crocheting, and crafting, and I enjoy being creative with the little ones I watch. I also love being outside and active! :)

Emma Boston
$22 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Hyde Park, MA

Hi!! I’m Emma, and I am a graduate pharmacy student with a B.S. in Biology and have around 3-4 years of hands-on experience caring for children! I’ve worked as a summer camp counselor for two summers(4-6 year olds), babysitter (children under the age of 10), and surgical dental assistant, so I’m calm under pressure, detail-oriented, and genuinely love helping others. As a former resident assistant in a university dorm, I’ve managed emergencies, created community events, and supported students emotionally and academically. I also hold CPR certification, a pharmacy intern license, and have experience in household support—whether it’s helping with homework, doing laundry, or maintaining a clean and organized environment.

Sure! Here’s a warm and professional welcome introduction for families considering you for babysitting, incorporating your experience and personality: --- **Welcome!** Hi families! My name is Taylah, and I’m so excited to offer trusted babysitting services in your area. With years of experience working with children from 2017 to 2021 as a nanny, and as an assistant teacher in Brookline where I had the pleasure of floating between classrooms of all ages, I bring both heart and hands-on expertise to child care. I currently work with the middle school and high school range because I love working with children and believe with the right village they can accomplish anything. I have a deep love for supporting children’s growth and creativity. Whether we’re painting, building LEGOs, or diving into imaginative play, I aim to create a fun, safe, and engaging environment for every child. I’m a naturally sweet and patient person who values cleanliness and organization, which helps children feel comfortable and supported in their space. I’m confident caring for children of all ages and needs, and I’m happy to adapt to your family’s routine and values. Looking forward to meeting you and your little ones! Warmly, Taylah

Hi! I’m Allison, a junior at Simmons University studying sociology, public health, and communications. I am looking for a number of caregiving roles in childcare, pet care, and household care. I have experience in a number of care giving settings including as a summer camp counselor to kids (ages 4-9), babysitting for family friends (ages 5-12), cat/dog sitting for family and friends, as well as house sitting and cleaning for family and friends. I am a very organized, detail oriented, and dependable person in my work, school, and personal life.
