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 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.
Hi! My name is Allie. I am originally from Texas, but have been in Boston since August 2023. I am going into my senior year of college at the New England Conservatory of Music where I study trombone performance. I am also an Aunt to 5 amazing nieces and nephews (currently ages 8 months to 12 years old) I love to be around kids of all ages and have taken pride in watching my niece and nephews grow up and being a part of their lives. As you might guess, I love music and would love to sing and play along with the kiddos! I also have ample experience with animals. I grew up with dogs around all of the time! I currently have 3 dogs of my own (that live back home with my parents), but have in the past owned and raised chickens, cows, turkeys, and pigs. I am comfortable around any animal and would absolutely love to help out with them.
Hello! My name is Phaviola, and I am eager to delve deeper into the childcare field, as I am passionate about working with kids and am seeking a career in Child Psychology. My passion for working with kids, my patience, love, attention, and the ability to treat every kid as if they are my own make me a great nanny. I am looking forward to working with your family and making your children live an unforgettable experience.
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!
