Hi! I’m a senior at Newton South High School who loves working with kids. I’ll be attending Bowdoin College in the fall, and I’m looking to connect with families for babysitting this spring and summer (and potentially beyond!). I have four years of babysitting experience with children of various ages, I’m CPR certified, and I have my own car so I can drive. I’m very responsible, organized, and energetic, and I enjoy engaging kids in crafts, outdoor activities, and games. I’d love to connect if you’re looking for help!

Mei 2 reviews

Booked by 1 family in Newton Upper Falls, MA

Hello everyone, my name is Mei. I’m a 26-year-old full-time mental health therapist with a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I work with clients of all ages, but I have a special passion for working with children and young adults. I’ve been a nanny and babysitter on and off for the past 6 years for children ranging from 10 months to 12 years old, and I have experience caring for up to three children at a time. I’m CPR certified and have a reliable new car. I have additional trainings and certifications related to supporting children’s emotional and mental well-being. I bring a calm, patient, and caring approach to childcare and really value meeting children where they are. My professional experience has given me a strong understanding of child development, communication, emotional regulation, and creating a safe and supportive environment for kids. I’m currently looking for part-time or occasional babysitting opportunities, including date nights, weekend care, or other occasional childcare needs. As the cost of living continues to increase, I’m hoping to use my childcare experience to earn some supplemental income while continuing to do something I genuinely enjoy! When I’m babysitting, I love getting to know each child and finding activities they genuinely enjoy. I’m always happy to get creative with arts and crafts, read books, play outside, or come up with fun indoor activities. I believe babysitting should be more than simply supervising children. I want kids to feel comfortable, heard, and engaged while their parents are away. I’m also happy to prepare simple meals or snacks when needed and help with light tidying related to the children. Most importantly, I want parents to feel confident that their children are in caring, responsible, and capable hands. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and help make your time away from your little ones as easy and stress-free as possible!

“Mei has been an incredible addition to our family, consistently demonstrating patience, reliability, and a genuine warmth with our children. Her ability to handle daily routines while keeping the kids engaged in creative activities has been a huge relief for us. We recommend her without hesitation to any family looking for a trustworthy and nurturing caregiver.”

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
