Booked by 1 family in Medford, MA

Hi everyone! I am Dalia, a current MPH student at Boston University. I moved to Boston to continue my education after teaching pre-school aged students (6 months to 5 years old) after completing my undergraduate degree in Human Development at Connecticut College. During college I volunteered at our Lab School, working with children aged 2 to 5 years old. In addition, I was a summer camp counselor, teaching ceramics to campers aged 6 to 16 years old and living in a cabin with children 11 to 13 years old. I love art, cooking/baking, being outside and going to museums! I do not have access to a car in Boston but happy to pick up your child via bus/train or by walking. I am happy to send more details about my experience or references. Please don’t hesitate to reach out!

Hello I’m Scarlen! I am a Licensed Nursing Assistant at Massachusetts General Hospital and have six years of experience working with children from 7 months to 14 years old. I am fluent in Spanish and passionate about providing safe, attentive, and nurturing care while building positive connections with children and families. I am certified in Basic Life Support (BLS) and CPR, allowing me to respond quickly and responsibly in emergency situations. I bring patience, creativity, and structure to every environment, helping children feel both supported and engaged with. Outside of work and school, I enjoy traveling, nature, and spending time with my younger siblings. I would be happy to get to know you and your family better and provide support in any way you may need.

“Our two little boys loved Scarlen! She was prompt and communicative, very positive and kind with the boys, and she was playful while in control. They took to her instantly and got to bed without issue. She’s a wonderful sitter!”

I am comfortable around small dogs and friendly cats. I am comfortable with light house cleaning(light sweeping, dishes, light laundry, tidying up) and can assist with homework. I am a bit silly and fun but always within reason. If needed I can whip up quick meals too!

Booked by 1 family in Medford, MA

Hello! My name is Teagan and I have been working with kids of all ages for about 11 years. I have experience working with children from ages 0-16. Please reach out if you have any questions! Thanks!

“Teagan looked after my son (four and a half months old) during the day while I ran some errands. She was energetic when she walked in and it was clear she knew a baby of his ages rhythm. Luca didn’t take a long nap like he typically does by Teagan was able to calm him down and do some more chilled playtime. She was also communicative throughout the day.”
