Hello, my name is Daniela and I am offering child, pet, and household support. I have been babysitting since I was 13 years old. I have mostly watched children from ages 5-12. However, I do have experience with newborns. My responsibilities with the children were often taking them home from school, tutoring, and basic monitoring. As in, helping with homework, feeding them dinner, and playing games. I have had many pets over the years, mainly cats. I am, unfortunately, allergic to dogs. But, I love cats and would be so happy to take care of yours. Since I have my own I understand them well. I am aware feeding times are strict and must be adhered to. As well as, enrichment through playtime being crucial. I can also help in the home. I can clean and do chores. I don't mind doing dishes, sweeping, or even dusting. I am excited to work with you!
Hello! - My name is Sharice, most call me Sha, and I'm currently a sophomore at the School of Visual Arts. I am offering child care, senior care, pet care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have been caring for kids since I was 10 years old! Most of my experience has come from babysitting younger family members as I grew up in a big family and am the 4th oldest of 14 cousins! My responsibilities have included crafts, entertainment, pick-up and drop-off, tutoring, and even dance lessons. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands. I have been a caretaker for my own 95 year-old grandma and am comfortable with senior care. I can cook and do many other tasks. Though I was raised in a pet-allergic household, I have been blessed without the allergy and am in love with furry friends!
Hi! I’m an NYU dental student passionate about pediatric dentistry, with valuable experience working closely with children. I’ve worked as a dental assistant in Boston University’s Head Start and Early Head Start programs, where I developed patience, compassion, and strong caregiving skills. I’m CPR certified for infants and adults, so your child’s safety is always my top priority. As a caregiver, I’m nurturing, reliable, and attentive, creating a warm and calm environment where kids feel happy and comfortable. I also enjoy engaging children with creative activities and games that promote learning and fun. Additionally, I have a year of volunteer experience at an animal shelter in Boston, giving me particular expertise in pet care—especially with cats—so I’m happy to help with your furry family members too. I would love to provide loving, responsible babysitting tailored to your family’s needs!
