Yvonne Revere
$23 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Yvonne, and I am a responsible, caring, and trustworthy nanny with hands-on experience caring for children of different ages. I currently work as a nanny and I’m looking to fill in extra days when I’m available. I am a mom of two children, which has given me a deep understanding of children’s needs, routines, and emotional care. I truly enjoy creating a safe, loving, and structured environment where kids feel comfortable and happy. I am flexible and always respectful of parents’ preferences and routines. I have my own car and reliable transportation. I’m also comfortable caring for pets, as I have a dog myself and love animals. My primary language is Spanish, and I have an intermediate level of English. I am always open to learning and improving my language skills. I take my work seriously and treat every family and child with care, patience, and respect. I would love the opportunity to support your family!

Booked by 13 families in Lynn, MA

I have worked in child care for 8 years in a variety of places. Most recently I was the assistant director at a YMCA camp and before that I was an after school tutor. Additionally I just graduated from the University of San Francisco. I have had a cat and a dog for most of my life, so your children and animals are safe with me! I believe in safety first and fun is number two. I strive for helping kids learn to be responsible and learning from their environment, but also to make sure that the kids are enjoying their time!

Camille showed up early, kept us informed on her timing and most importantly, developed an amazing rapport with our 5yo daughter, who took to her immediately. We’ll definitely continue working with Camille.

Booked by 3 families in Lynn, MA

Hi- my name is Raianna I’m currently working in a daycare in Marblehead , working with toodlers at the moment. I have experienced taking care of infants toodlers and preschoolers. I really love and enjoy being a babysitter outside of my work hours, I enjoy being with the kiddos, spend time with them, show them new things, and most importantly making them feel safe. Im fluent both in English and Spanish and I’m currently taking Italian lessons. I’m originally from Dominican Republic but I moved to the states at a young age so I would be delighted to teach your kiddos Spanish! I love and also am comfortable with Dogs and Cats. :)

Raianna was great! She was communicative and prompt and was great with our two toddlers. She gracefully handled dinner and bedtime routines for two kids who were not experienced with babysitters. We would recommend her!

My name is Christinei. I am a professional educator over 41 years now and have been a nanny for about 22 of those. This was the best decision I made ever. I like the one on one care it provides for the child(ren) and the whole family, including pets. Each child is an individual and needs to be heard and learns differently and this as an educator is where I learn from them. My expertise is in newborn/infant/toddler care but I also love to prepare your child for preschool and readiness for group learning environments. I teach through all experiences and will help the new parent “see” each developmental level their child has experienced and help achieve the next level with proper fun experiences - yes a three month old can “read” a favorite book! I look forward to becoming part of your child’s team - that includes the love of the family pet!

Christine first joined our network about 8 years ago as we became new parents. We needed help a few days a week as I (mama) worked from home. She very much followed my lead, allowed me to have my time with my newborn sitting back and chatting and sharing little tidbits that became so helpful when navigating new parenthood - but when I needed to step away and dive into work-focus, she was able to keep space and handle whatever was happening. Her specialized education in language development quickly became apparent. She would have the most delightful conversations with our infant, and then focus in on age appropriate sounds for language development. They were soon chatting for hours while working with playdoh and doing art. It was a joy to see. When I had to work out of the house, I always came home to a journal review of food, activities, new language development, and all the things a new parent wants to be up to speed on. She bubbled up with us during the pandemic while I was pregnant with our second baby, she was with us full time - allowing us bonding time with our new baby and keeping our toddler engaged and with a routine that could be as consistent as possible during uncertain times. She also brought our lovable dog and cat into her “classroom routines”. She is what we call our “Forever Nanny” - we still consistently use her for date nights, weekends away — and we’ve even gone out of the country for 5 days and left our most loved beings (kids and pets) in the care of Christine. She also takes our fur-babies for us if needed, and she shows up for all the dance recitals and birthday parties. Christine makes learning fun for the kiddos and knows how to set boundaries. She is open to shifting style, depending on family philosophy, but she is also confident enough to offer a different perspective if appropriate. She sets a daily routine consisting of all the normal things (eating, diapering/bathroom) + art (she’s a wonderful and fun artist - it’s one of our kids’ favorite things to do with her), reading, writing, math, gross motor skills, neighborhood adventures, music (I’m probably forgetting others) - but it’s fun and balanced! Christine is a gem.
