$23 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Winnie! I’m 26 years old and recently moved to Rhode Island from Boston, MA. I offer childcare, pet care, house sitting, and household services. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a Master’s in Social Work with a certification in trauma. I currently work as a clinical social worker at Boston Medical Center, and caring for others has always been at the center of my life. I began working with children at 16 in a small daycare in East Boston, where I am originally from. Over the years, I’ve gained experience with infants, toddlers, and children of different ages. My responsibilities have included: • Creating engaging curriculum for toddlers in both English and Spanish • Managing daily schedules, including naps and mealtimes • Leading crafts, circle time, sensory play, and outdoor activities at the park • Completing medication reports and ensuring a safe, nurturing environment My passion for working with children has grown through these experiences, and I continue to bring patience, creativity, and reliability to every family I work with. Along with childcare, I can also assist with household tasks such as cleaning, organizing, and running errands to help make your day-to-day life a little easier. I am allergic to cats, but I’m more than happy to care for dogs. I am hoping that we can connect soon!

Hi! My name is Nicole. I am a a college student looking for occasional/one time babysitting jobs. I started caring for children at age 12 so I have almost 7 years of experience under my belt. I have also worked at nursing homes since age 14 and have experience with the mentally impaired. I’ve cared for children anywhere from ages 1-13. I can do anything from diaper changes to playing catch in the yard but arts and crafts is my specialty. Currently, I work at a school with fourth and fifth graders where I am directly responsible for their safety. I also nanny a 7 and a 9 year old. Please consider me :)

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!

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 :)
