Booked by 22 families in Allston, MA

Hello! My name is Aoife (pronounced ee-fah). I’m a law student interested in occasional jobs. My paid experience working with children began at around age fourteen as a mother’s helper, but as the oldest of four children I’ve been helping with child care even a few years before that. I have 7 years of experience babysitting children ages 1 to 12 years and 3 years as a private tutor and a mentor to high school students. I’m responsible, fun, and passionate about theater and the arts.

Excellent and highly recommended. Handled our 3 children with ease and great care.

Hi there! I'm Allie, and I'm a Boston-based college professor and professional actor. I’m currently on summer break and available for short-term childcare opportunities! A bit about me—I moved to Boston to pursue my MFA in Theatre Education at Emerson College, but before that I lived in New York City, where I worked as a full-time nanny (and professional actor!). I have over ten years of childcare and children's education experience, and I'd love to meet you and your family. As a babysitter, I understand that every child and family is unique. I specialize in working with school-age children, children with severe allergies, children of LGBTQ+ families, high net worth families, and children with extra support needs (Prader-Willi syndrome, autism, ADHD, dyslexia, anxiety disorder, mood regulation disorder). I work carefully with parents to create a customized care plan to help their children thrive socially, emotionally, and academically. And as a professional actor, I also love to have fun and encourage imaginative play! My full resume and references are available upon request. I look forward to connecting with you soon!

Hello Families! My name is Rashida and I am a native Bostonian. I am a licensed and experienced Child Care Professional. I have over 20 years of teaching experience and child care experience and I love working with children! I have my Associate's degree in Early Childhood Education and I am infant, toddler, preschool lead teacher qualified and director qualified. I love working with children because I enjoy helping them learn, discover and grow. Seeing and helping infants and toddlers reach new milestones and watching and giving preschoolers and early learners tools to discover the world around them is a joy and is exciting to see. For the past 2 years I have also been teaching Early Childhood trainings and enrichment classes to Educators. The program is in partnership with statewide EEC programs. I am available to provide child care in Boston and in the Greater Boston area. I look forward to meeting and speaking with you!

Hello! My name is Megan and I have a PhD in Child Clinical Psychology. I am new to the Boston area and would love to connect with a few families for date night / weekend babysitting. I have 15+ years experience babysitting kids 6 months and older. I'm a positive, reliable, and flexible person. I've fostered many incredible relationships with families over the years and would love the chance to meet yours!

Megan was super sweet. She easily accommodated our needs since we were in a hotel room for a wedding! Kiddo was safe and happy!

Hello families! Im Azja with an extensive background in education and early childhood development and behavioral health. A little about me...I am the only child . I've been working with and assisting teachers over 10+ years . All my experiences over the years have came from babysitting , volunteering at daycares, and working at camps was great training and experience to contribute to my early child and care, which is what I have majored in college . I also have worked as an ABA therapist summer of 2019 working with children on the autism spectrum while in undergrad . I have done volunteer work for children services of Roxbury, worked at camp joy ( children with special needs) and community centers such as the boys and girls club . I have worked in the field in all classroom levels between daycare and fifth grade, including being a behavioral aide . Over the small amount of time I have obtained a lot of experience with a wide range of ages, needs, as well as multiples. Willing to do educational activities. I'm a firm believer that the best way for children to learn is through play (Piaget). So I always try my best to "kill two birds with one stone" - have fun AND learn something, all in one activity.

Azja had top notch communication and punctuality. Also working with us last minute due to a cancellation and squeezing in an interview. Worked well with our daughter on her first non-family babysitter and did a great job managing the evening. Would recommend!
