Hi my name is Cristina, I have a lot of personal experience with taking care of people such as my grandmother and my nieces, I also was a camp counselor for DARTS a camp run by the Boston symphony orchestra where I shared my passion for the performing arts and helped the campers use their creativity to put on plays, create dance choreographies and so much more, when it’s not cold or rainy outside I also like to go on fun adventures to new exciting places around Boston :)
Hi, my name is Rashema and I’m currently working in healthcare in a patient care setting. I am offering childcare, and household services. I love working with children and have been working with them (infants, toddlers and teenagers) since I was 14 years old, in both professional and personal settings. My responsibilities have included at home babysitting, helping with homework, etc. I’ve worked at a daycare, briefly worked as an Registered Behavioral Technician where I worked 1 on 1 with a child with autism, and I have worked in patient with teenage girls who struggle with eating disorders. I am not allergic to any pets so I am open and able to work with families with pets! (I had 2 pairs of birds as pets when I was younger).
Hey Parents! My name is Melissa, I am 31 years old, have about 5 years experience nannying. Ages 6months - 14 years and I am currently looking for full-time jobs. I have worked in the past with different families from one-time jobs to recurring positions. I am available Monday - Friday and occasionally on weekends. I also have my own vehicle for transportation. If you have any questions feel free to ask! Thanks!
Hi! My name is Grace, and I’m a first-year student-athlete at Simmons University. I offer child care, household help, and pet care. I’ve been babysitting since high school and have experience with infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids. I also have a background working with children with special needs, including kids on the autism spectrum. I’m patient, calm, and always focused on communication and safety. I am lifeguard-certified and trained in CPR and First Aid, so families can feel confident that their children are in safe hands. I love creating a positive and active environment—whether that means helping with homework, doing crafts, reading, imaginary play, or getting kids outside to burn off energy. Even without car access, I’m great at planning fun activities and keeping kids engaged. As a college volleyball player, I bring strong energy, organization, and reliability to everything I do. Parents can count on me to show up on time, stay engaged, and keep routines running smoothly. I’m also happy to help with meal prep, light cleaning, organizing, and bedtime or morning routines. I’m comfortable with dogs and most pets, and I’m very organized, so helping out around the house or keeping things tidy is no problem. I’d love to get to know your family and help make your weekly routine easier and more enjoyable!
