Hi! I am currently providing child care, senior care, and household services. I enjoy working with children - being a parent, I hope this reassures you that I will look after your child or children with the same care I would want for my baby girl: with love, patience, compassion, respect, experience, and more. I can also support/assist with personal/virtual administrative assistance. I am a full-time Operations Manager! Have a question or proposal? Ask away.
I am an Early Childhood Education student and a toddler teacher with hands on classroom experience working with young children. I am patient, responsible, and caring, and I love helping children learn through play, creativity, and routine. I have experience supporting children’s social and emotional development, preparing simple activities, and creating a safe and positive environment. Families can trust that I will treat their children with kindness, attention, and respect while keeping them engaged and safe.
“Neo was smashing! Highly recommend. My kids loved her. ”
Hi, I'm Rachel! I’m a calm, caring, and dependable person who genuinely loves caring for children and finds being of service deeply rewarding. I was also a full-time nanny for a 1-year-old earlier in life and have helped care for my two nephews, now 12 and 15, throughout their lives. As an artist and writer, I love encouraging creativity and imagination through art, games, stories, music, dancing, and outdoor play. I’m warm and playful while providing healthy boundaries, and prefer active engagement over screens. I’m hoping to find a family I can support consistently and grow with long-term. I’m also happy to help with cooking, errands, light cleaning, laundry, and organizing—and I love animals!
Hi - My name is Margaret. I'm a paraprofessional in an integrated (special needs and traditional education) preschool classroom at Placentino Elementary in Holliston. I’m looking for additional hours working with children and families after school, on school holidays, and weekends. I am offering child care, pet care, senior care, and household services. I live in Holliston with two of my own and two step children in their teenage and young adult years, and two dogs. I had cats for two decades prior to 2020. I’ve been an active member of the PTA for many of my children’s school years, have experience in ABA and working with neurodiverse children and adults with traits or official diagnosis of ADHD. autism, and dyslexia. I am also a certified yoga instructor working towards an additional yoga certification for neurodiverse children and adults. I love working with children, and have been a nanny, babysitter, or mother since I was a young teenager myself. I look forward to meeting you!
