Adelaide Boston
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Adelaide, a senior majoring in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at Belmont University. Originally from Quincy, IL, I grew up as the oldest of four sisters, and caring for them has always been a big part of my life. Alongside babysitting for other families, I’ve developed a strong background in childcare and responsibility from a young age. In addition to my family experience, I worked as a caregiver for two years during my sophomore and junior years, gaining hands-on experience caring for individuals across a wide age range. This work has deepened my understanding and appreciation of compassionate, attentive care for people of all backgrounds and needs.

Alyssa Boston
$30 per hour for 1 child

My name is Alyssa, I have had the pleasure of working with children for over a decade now, since 2010. In my professional journey, I have served as an assistant director and currently hold the position of a lead teacher in a PreK classroom. I take pride in my qualifications, as I am Director certified, CPR/First Aid certified, and have a strong background in Reggio Curriculum. I have had the opportunity to work closely with numerous families, including one that I have been with for the past 10 years, initially meeting through care. com. I am seeking an afterschool babysitting position where I can continue to engage with children outside of the traditional classroom setting. Im interested in taking children to and from afterschool activities, planning exciting outdoor adventures, and providing homework assistance and support with any other afterschool tasks. Please do not hesitate to reach out if you would like more info or if you are interested in discussing potential opportunities.

Noelle Brighton
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Noelle, and I’m a recent graduate from Stanford University with a degree in Industrial Engineering and a minor in Spanish. I currently work full-time as a financial analyst, but I’m also looking for part-time babysitting opportunities. I’ve always enjoyed caring for kids and have experience babysitting for family, friends, and during high school, where I was responsible for tutoring and transporting a 10-year-old girl from school to her extracurricular activities. Families often describe me as responsible, dependable, and attentive. I also take safety seriously and plan to complete my CPR certification through my employer soon, which I’ll bring into my babysitting work as well. Whether it is helping with homework, preparing snacks, keeping little ones entertained, or caring for babies including feeding and diaper changes, I am committed to providing a safe, supportive, and positive environment for every child I watch. I also love animals, especially cats and dogs, and I am happy to look after them too. In addition, I can help out around the house to make things a little easier for busy parents. I look forward to babysitting for your family soon :)

Hi! I'm Annabelle. I'm a pre-medical undergraduate student at Boston College. I have worked with children for the past six years. I've been babysitting and working at a summer camp since I was 13. I absolutely love kids. I am CPR certified in both adult and pediatrics. My availability is pretty open and I am available for any last minute jobs. I am also able to help with tasks outside of just babysitting such as tutoring, cleaning, etc. I love pets and don't mind taking care of them too if necessary. I do not have a car with me on campus but I do have a license and don't mind running errands if necessary. Please reach out with any opportunities!

"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!"
