Claire $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I am experienced in various forms of childcare; I’ve been babysitting since I was a preteen, I have about a year and a half of infant and toddler daycare experience, and have over four years of experience working with autistic children of nearly all ages. Most recently I’ve been working as a preschool and kindergarten classroom aide, and with the summer break approaching I’m looking for a summer job that could hopefully transition to a part-time gig during the school year.

Camila $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Camila and I’m currently living in Framingham as an au pair. I offer childcare, senior care, and household support services. I truly enjoy working with children and have been babysitting since high school — including experience caring for twins. My responsibilities have included school pick-ups and drop-offs, arts and crafts, tutoring, meal prep, bath and bedtime routines, and children’s laundry. I love creating a calm, fun, and safe environment where kids feel supported and engaged. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to help with cooking, light cleaning, organizing, and running errands. I also have experience in senior care. I was a caregiver for my own grandmother and I am confident supporting daily routines such as meal preparation, transportation to medical appointments, companionship, and household tasks. I am comfortable working in homes with cats and dogs. 🔹 Availability: Weekends 🔹 Languages: Fluent in English and Spanish (happy to support bilingual learning!) I look forward to connecting with a family who values kindness, reliability, and open communication!

Allison $18 per hour for 1 child

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. In my experience as a summer camp counselor I helped to manage and engage groups of up to 50 children in crowded public places such as amusement parks, ensured children’s safety while having fun in a variety of environments including swimming holes, and adapted activities to help suit children with different individual needs.

"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!"
