Hi! My name is Hilary, and I’m a nursing student at Simmons University. I’m genuinely passionate about well-being, caregiving, and helping families feel supported.

I’m offering care for children ages 2–10 and also senior care,companionship. I have experience working in assisted living, so I’m comfortable supporting older adults with patience, respect, and attention to safety.

I’m reliable, calm, patient, and caring. I pay attention to details, I communicate clearly, and I take safety seriously.

$27 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Jefferson, MA

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!

Jessica was amazing and helped us feel very comfortable leaving our son in her care. She was prompt and very caring with our one year old who bonded with her immediately!
