Find a last-minute babysitter in Winthrop, MA

Hi! I’m Melissa, a 25-year-old living in Somerville, MA. I grew up in Rhode Island, went to college in upstate New York, and moved to Somerville for grad school before settling into my 9 – 5 in downtown Boston doing Data Analytics. I’ve been babysitting for nearly 10 years, caring for kids of all ages, from infants to teens, and have also spent the past 7 years tutoring math and science. I genuinely love working with children, whether that means helping with homework, getting active outdoors, or snuggling up for a movie. My friends describe me as fun, lively, patient, reliable, and outgoing. I played soccer in college and enjoy running, biking, and staying active, but I’m just as happy to get creative with crafts or work through a tough math problem. I once organized a full-day music video production of Katy Perry’s “Firework” with the kids that turned into a true masterpiece and a favorite memory. I’m adaptable and caring, always striving to bring positive energy and support to the families I work with. I look forward to helping your family however I can!

I can help with home responsibilities: laundry, cooking, admin, etc. I'm a professional chef by trade. Can provide meal prep, allergen safe recipes, event consultation. Also, great with cats. Max 2

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!
