I’m a caring, reliable, and energetic caregiver with experience supporting children of all ages—from newborns to teenagers. I’ve taken care of up to three toddlers at the same time for several days, and I’m very comfortable managing different personalities and needs at once. Coming from a large family full of little ones, I’ve spent years helping raise and care for children in all stages, which has given me patience, confidence, and a natural ability to connect with kids quickly. I have a sweet-hearted and positive nature, and I always make it a priority to create a warm, safe, and joyful environment. I love engaging with children through singing, reading, imaginative play, and outdoor activities that keep them active and entertained. I enjoy being hands-on, present, and involved—never just supervising from the sidelines. Whether it’s helping a toddler explore their creativity, keeping up with energetic kids, or offering calm support to a newborn, I adapt easily to what each child needs. I’m also comfortable helping with cooking and meal prep, and I’m happy to support families with simple household routines that make their day a little easier. One of my favorite parts of caregiving is teaching through fun moments, and I can introduce Spanish naturally into play, songs, and conversation so children learn in a way that feels exciting and easy. Families describe me as dependable, kind, flexible, and someone who truly cares. I bring a great blend of patience, playfulness, and responsibility, and I take pride in creating an environment where children feel valued, supported, and happy. I’m committed to showing up with a great attitude, treating every child as if they were my own family, and making sure parents feel confident and at ease while their little ones are with me. I am open to long-term arrangements with one family and would love to build a consistent relationship where I can support your child’s growth over time. My best availability is all day on weekends and after 4 PM on Wednesdays. I’d love the opportunity to bring my experience, positive energy, and big-hearted care to your family.
Hi families! My name is Jasmine, and I’m currently a rising junior at Wellesley College double majoring in Education and Psychology. I have always loved working with children because I understand how important it is for them to have someone who is patient, supportive, and trustworthy in their lives. I also understand that choosing someone to care for your child is a big decision, and I never take that trust lightly. My goal is to create an environment where children feel safe, comfortable, and encouraged to be themselves. My experience caring for children has grown naturally through my family and the relationships I have built with the children I have cared for. As an older sister, I have always helped support and look after my siblings, which taught me responsibility, patience, and the importance of being attentive to each child’s individual needs. I have also had the opportunity to care for my younger cousin from infancy through his toddler years, and watching him grow has taught me so much about the importance of patience, consistency, and creating a nurturing environment. While attending Wellesley, I have also gained babysitting experience in Boston, where I have enjoyed getting to know families and helping create a safe and positive space for their children. I have experience connecting with children at different ages and stages, and I love being someone they can feel comfortable with, whether that means helping with routines, playing, learning, or simply being there to support them. I would describe myself as dependable, caring, patient, and responsible. I enjoy creating activities that allow children to explore and have fun, such as reading, music, dancing, creative activities, outdoor walks, and helping with homework. My background in Education and Psychology has also helped me better understand children’s development, emotions, and the importance of making them feel valued and heard. I also have a SafeChokeSaver certification, which has strengthened my knowledge of child safety and preparedness. I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide a caring, safe, and positive environment where your child feels happy, supported, and able to be themselves.
Hello, my name is Elena. I am 48-years-old Peruvian single mother. I am offering my services as a babysitter because I love taking care of children. I adore painting, drawing, singing, dancing, and teaching new things. I have a great imagination to create fun activities for children and, above all, a lot of energy! I am a very patient person, and I like organizing and keeping play areas clean, safe, and in order.
Hi, my name is Deborah Cohen and I would be happy to help out childcare and pet care. I have over 8 years experience taking care of children. I started off volunteering in my teens at my local church, taking care of multiple children of all ages. I eventually took care of a sweet little girl until she was 5 years old. I currently help out a family taking care of two boys. I enjoy being outside with kids, reading with them and playing games. I have experience with homework help, meal planning, baking, and doing crafts. I enjoy interacting with kids and I’m very patient. I also have experience with taking care of cats and dogs. I’ve grown up with animals and then was a pet sitter for my sister. I’ve done pet sitting for several years and have experience with dog walking, distributing medication, and feeding. I’m also open to house sitting. I look forward to helping out in any way
Hi! I'm Keeks, a patient, creative, and dependable caregiver based in Los Angeles with over four years of childcare experience working with children ages 1–16. My background includes full-time nannying for a toddler whose parents were both business owners with demanding schedules. I independently managed daily routines, nutrition, and nap schedules, transportation to pediatric appointments, and age-appropriate activities supporting early childhood development. I especially enjoyed introducing new experiences, encouraging language development and independence, and incorporating sensory play, outdoor exploration, and hands-on learning into everyday routines. I currently provide childcare for a queer co-parenting family, adapting to their unique household dynamic and evolving schedules. My responsibilities include school pickups and drop-offs, supporting daily routines, and planning activities that encourage creativity, curiosity, and social development. I've really enjoyed building a lasting relationship with the family and being someone they can consistently depend on. Alongside childcare, I work part-time as an artist's assistant. My background in the arts is something I love incorporating into childcare, from introducing children to different materials and artistic techniques to organizing hands-on projects that encourage experimentation, problem-solving, and self-expression. I also enjoy outdoor activities, exploring nature, and finding engaging alternatives to screen time. I believe children benefit from a healthy balance of structure, independence, play, and opportunities to explore their interests. I understand how much trust goes into welcoming someone into your home and caring for your children. My approach is warm, attentive, and adaptable, with an emphasis on creating a safe, supportive environment where children feel comfortable expressing themselves and parents feel confident in the care they're receiving. I value clear communication, respecting each family's parenting style, and being proactive about the little things that help a household run smoothly. I'm currently looking to transition into a more full-time nannying position and would love to build a long-term relationship with a welcoming, inclusive family that values thoughtful caregiving, communication, and individuality!
