Hello! My name is Michaela. I am a retired Elementary Educator. I taught for 29 years. I retired in June of 2024. I have a wonderful repertoire with children and enjoy the moments of joy which they bring.
Hello! I’m a lifelong nurturer originally from England, though I’ve called this country home since I was 21. My journey with children began at Manchester University where I earned my teaching degree, and it continued through the greatest joy of my life: raising my own two sons, who are now grown. For the last 20 years, I’ve dedicated my heart to caring for other families' little ones. I truly believe that every child needs a patient, creative, and friendly soul in their corner. Whether we are exploring the outdoors, getting lost in a board game, or working through a tricky homework assignment, my goal is always to make your child feel seen and supported. I value the trust you place in me, which is why I prioritize clear, gentle communication and a respectful approach to your family’s unique rhythm and rules. I am also fully certified in CPR and First Aid for your peace of mind. I simply love what I do, and I would be honored to bring a bit of extra joy and stability to your child’s world. I look forward to meeting you and your family!"
Hello! My name is Bebe, and I am a 19-year-old college student majoring in psychology. I have over two years of paid childcare experience working with children of all ages. I am CPR and First Aid certified and have a clean driving record. I am comfortable with cooking, cleaning, and running errands as needed. I would love the opportunity to become a trusted and supportive part of your family.
Hi! My name is Astarrian (uh-star-ree-in) you can call me Starr for short! I am currently a behavioral therapist working with young children with autism and have a bachelor’s degree in Psychology. I also am in the process pursuing a masters degree within ABA. I am offering child care, which has been one of my passions for years. I am known to be the young aunty in my family so I have a lot of experience with taking care of young children, toddlers, and babies under 1 years old. I not only can provide care taking responsibilities but I can also provide creative play for your child!
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!
