Booked by 1 family in Boston, MA

With over ten years of experience in child caregiving, I have developed a deep passion for supporting and nurturing children. Starting as a babysitter at the age of 12, I have worked with kids ranging from 9 months to 17 years old. My experience includes tutoring dyslexic students, working at a summer camp, and providing care for children with special needs. Currently, I serve as a behavioral therapist for autistic children, where I apply tailored strategies to support their growth and development. I am dedicated to creating positive, enriching experiences for every child I work with.

Yvonne $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Yvonne, and I am a responsible, caring, and trustworthy nanny with hands-on experience caring for children of different ages. I currently work as a nanny and I’m looking to fill in extra days when I’m available. I am a mom of two children, which has given me a deep understanding of children’s needs, routines, and emotional care. I truly enjoy creating a safe, loving, and structured environment where kids feel comfortable and happy. I am flexible and always respectful of parents’ preferences and routines. I have my own car and reliable transportation. I’m also comfortable caring for pets, as I have a dog myself and love animals. My primary language is Spanish, and I have an intermediate level of English. I am always open to learning and improving my language skills. I take my work seriously and treat every family and child with care, patience, and respect. I would love the opportunity to support your family!

Grace $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Grace, and I’m a first-year student-athlete at Simmons University. I offer child care, household help, and pet care. I’ve been babysitting since high school and have experience with infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids. I also have a background working with children with special needs, including kids on the autism spectrum. I’m patient, calm, and always focused on communication and safety. I am lifeguard-certified and trained in CPR and First Aid, so families can feel confident that their children are in safe hands. I love creating a positive and active environment—whether that means helping with homework, doing crafts, reading, imaginary play, or getting kids outside to burn off energy. Even without car access, I’m great at planning fun activities and keeping kids engaged. As a college volleyball player, I bring strong energy, organization, and reliability to everything I do. Parents can count on me to show up on time, stay engaged, and keep routines running smoothly. I’m also happy to help with meal prep, light cleaning, organizing, and bedtime or morning routines. I’m comfortable with dogs and most pets, and I’m very organized, so helping out around the house or keeping things tidy is no problem. I’d love to get to know your family and help make your weekly routine easier and more enjoyable!
