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! My name is Madeline (aka Maddie). I have 10+ years of childcare experience, ranging from infants to young adolescents (ages 4 months to 12 years). I am fully COVID-19 vaccinated and pediatric CPR + first aid certified. I hold a Master’s degree in Child Study & Human Development from Tufts University. While at Tufts, I worked as a Teaching Fellow at the Eliot-Pearson Children’s School where I co-taught in the 5-7 year old classroom. Fun fact about me: I’ve lived abroad in Budapest, Hungary :)

Maddie was so wonderful! She jumped right in and our daughters adored her. We can’t wait to work with Maddie again soon!

Booked by 1 family in Newton, MA

My name is Jessica, and I’m 28 years old. I have a degree in Early Childhood Education and over six years of experience caring for children of all ages which gave me valuable hands-on experience with child development and daily family routines. I consider myself an active, patient, organized, honest, kind, creative, and loving person. I enjoy spending time outdoors, traveling, and connecting with nature. As a nanny and babysitter, I love planning fun and meaningful activities such as arts and crafts, dancing, painting, board games, nature walks, and more. I truly enjoy supporting children’s growth through playful and engaging experiences. I’m also a native Spanish speaker, and if you’re interested, I’d be happy to introduce your children to the Spanish language through songs, stories, games, and everyday conversation. Currently, I work with a wonderful family with three kids during the week and have been with them for the past two years. They would be happy to provide references. I’m now looking for occasional babysitting opportunities in the evenings and on weekends. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children, helping with bedtime routines, and keeping things tidy and comfortable for families. Thank you for visiting my profile. I look forward to meeting you and your little ones soon!

Jessica was amazing and helped us feel very comfortable leaving our son in her care. She was prompt and very caring with our one year old who bonded with her immediately!
