Sarina $20 per hour for 1 child
As an older sibling of three, I have been taking care of little ones since I can remember. I babysat neighbors and family friends since I was 14, and have worked with children of all ages in school-based settings throughout high school and college. I grew up with dogs and cats and am familiar and comfortable taking care of furry friends as well. Currently, I am a Master's of Social Work student at Simmons University and work at a group home with teenagers. I am very comfortable around kids of all ages and can be kind, playful, and compassionate while reinforcing expectations. I have experience working with youth with complicated mental health diagnoses and complex needs, as well as neurodivergent kiddos. I am also extremely clean, able to take care of house plants, and love to cook! In my free time, I enjoy knitting, crocheting, and crafting, and I enjoy being creative with the little ones I watch. I also love being outside and active! :)

Hi! My name is Paola and I’m a recent Master’s graduate beginning my career as a pediatric psychotherapist while working toward independent licensure. I have a Bachelor’s in Psychology and a Master’s in Mental Health Counseling and Behavioral Medicine. I have over 5 years of experience working with children of all ages. I’ve been babysitting since I was a teenager, worked as a preschool teacher during summers in undergrad, and currently work as a pediatric psychotherapist with kids ages 2-18. I especially love working with younger children and have a strong interest in early childhood development. I’m originally from Puerto Rico and am bilingual in English and Spanish. I enjoy engaging kids through play, crafts, reading, and other creative activities, and I strive to create a warm and supportive environment.
