Hi! My name is Kate, and I’m a certified educator with a strong background in Montessori education, early childhood and elementary education, special education, general education, and family support. I hold dual certification in Early Childhood Education and Childhood Education, with training and experience supporting children across both general and special education settings. My background includes working in Montessori school environments, supporting student programming, partnering closely with families, and serving as a trusted point of communication between parents, children, teachers, and school leadership. What makes me stand out is the combination of warmth, structure, and professionalism I bring into a home. I understand child development, routines, emotional regulation, independence-building, and the importance of meeting each child where they are. I’m calm, patient, highly organized, and intentional about creating an environment where children feel safe, respected, and engaged. I also love language learning and cultural curiosity. I have studied Spanish, Italian, Chinese, and music, and I enjoy incorporating songs, conversation, reading, creative play, and age-appropriate learning into my time with children when families are interested. Professionally, I’ve worked closely with busy families, school communities, and executive leadership, so I understand the importance of trust, discretion, reliability, and clear communication. I’m especially comfortable with school-aged children and can support homework, reading, routines, creative activities, after-school transitions, bedtime, snacks/meals, and child-related tidying. I’m available for flexible evening and weekend babysitting, including date nights, occasional care, homework support, and family coverage. My goal is to provide care that feels warm, thoughtful, and dependable — so parents can feel fully at ease and children can feel genuinely cared for.
Hi neighbors! My name is Gemma, and I’m an 18-year-old senior at The Brearley School. I have experience babysitting for local families with children ages 5+, and I’m certified in CPR for infants, children, adults. I am also certified in First Aid. I have worked as a camp counselor and have babysat children ages 4-11 before. I also foster kittens, and have lots of experience with cats. I have owned dogs before as well. I’m warm, reliable, and love keeping kids engaged, whether that’s helping with homework, playing games, or reading together. Please feel free to reach out — I’d love to connect with more families in the neighborhood!
Hi, my name is Kimberly. I’ve been babysitting for a while now I started off babysitting my nephew when I was young. I loved it so much I started looking into more babysitting jobs and I now have more than 2 years of experience. I also love doing other chores such as laundry and mild cleaning. I love cooking especially some shrimp alfredo pasta yumm! I love making snacks for the kids and creating fun activities for them. Especially art activities and baking with them! I have experience walking dogs as well. I love pets a lot and look forward to seeing families with their fur babies :)
Hi! My name is Gracie, and I’m a current law student at Harvard University and a recent graduate of the University of Wisconsin–Madison. This summer I have an internship in the city and lots of free time compared to the school year! I have over nine years of babysitting experience, plus a lifetime of practice as the oldest sibling (my little sister is ten years younger than me!). I’ve truly grown up around children and care for every child as if they were my own younger sister. I love playing dress-up, building fairy houses, kicking a soccer ball around, reading stories, and spending time at the park. I’d love to meet your family and look forward to connecting!
“Great communicator, reliable, and punctual! All you could want from a sitter.”
Hi parents! 😊 Do you need a part-time sitter? I’m available for weekday/daytime childcare. I’m Luci, a recent Middlebury College graduate with degrees in Psychology (with a concentration in Child Development) and Studio Art. I’m also certified as a restorative justice facilitator and in child mental health crisis intervention. I have 4 years of experience babysitting for children ages 12 months–10 years. I’ve also taught art to young children in nonprofit early education settings. My approach to childcare aligns closely with the Montessori philosophy. I engage directly with children through play, encourage imagination and creativity, and am happy to take them to enrichment activities. If you’re looking for childcare or would like to chat more about what your family needs, feel free to reach out! I’d love to connect.
“with luci, i experience a trust, ease, and grounded sense of responsibility in a caregiver. at the same time, luci is extremely light, creative, and finding fun with my 10 year old son. you'll see that luci is consistently accountable for her time as well as lovely, considerate, and understanding of the pivotal role she plays in the daily schedule and mind of a young child. highly recommend :)”
