Azariah $20 per hour for 1 child

I am a Social Work major at Simmons University and I have experience with babysitting in the long term and short term, dog-sitting, cat-sitting, and house-sitting. I am incredibly patient, creative, understanding, and a quick problem solver which makes me perfect for working with kids. I am quick to learn each family's rules and preferences and enforce them gently. I am a strong communicator which means I am great at building a rapport both with parents and kids. I have been CPR certified by the American Heart Association and am ready to take on responsibilities such as making meals, cleaning, and organizing for a family in addition to childcare or pet care.

Chloé $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Boston, MA

Hi! I’m Chloé and I am an engineering student at Northeastern University. I have around 9 years of paid experience babysitting of ages 3 months to 15 years old, and have taken care of up to five kids at once. Outside of babysitting, I have worked as a coach, camp counselor, Head Youth Coach, and Youth Programs Director, so I have a lot of experience in finding fun things for kids to do! I am First Aid/CPR/AED certified for infants, children, and adults. I love cooking, so if you need some help with meal prepping, I would love to bring some creative recipes to your household! I also am a native French speaker and have a B2 level in Spanish, so I thrive in multilingual households. I’m happy to help with homework, cleaning up around the house, laundry, and more! Thanks for reading! Reach out if I seem like a good fit for your family.

$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 5 families in Boston, MA

Hello! I am a student at Northeastern University here in Boston, but am originally from Southern California. I am currently studying Math and Data Science. I have been in childcare for over five years now, and have extensive experience with children of all ages. I have made long term connections with families in California, and am looking to make some here in Boston! My experience includes caring for multiple children, cooking, cleaning, bathing, taking to school/activities, and entertaining multiple children at once. I am mainly looking for nights and weekends as I am currently working a full-time internship. Looking forward to meeting you and your family!
