Find nannies in Allston, MA

Hi! My name is Alex and I'm recent graduate of Wesleyan University. I'm offering childcare and household services. I love working with kids and have babysat (around my neighborhood growing up, no full time experience) as well as volunteered at an elementary and middle school in Middletown, CT as tutor and emotional support coach for kids. I have a car and drivers license so am able to drive if necessary. Also, I love doing fun activities like crafts and playing games to help get kids off technology! I feel comfortable cooking, cleaning, and running errands such as grocery shopping. I am comfortable with pets and pet care, and allergic to cats, but am alright with cats as long as I know in advance and can take medicine.

Hi! I have been professionally nannying children for fourteen years, varying from infants to preteens and would love to get to know your kiddo(s)! I have experience with nanny shares (two toddlers), and have had multiple positions caring for 2 kids at the same time. I also have experience with house managing, meal prep, driving kids, bottle prep, diaper changing, and putting down for naps/bed. I also have experience being out and about with kiddos, as well as socializing with other parents/nannies and their children. I’m very adaptive to constantly changing circumstances and pride myself with being able to roll with the punches :) I also have experience helping children develop skills to manage their own emotions, and teaching them developmentally appropriate social skills. I’m very warm and patient with children, especially during meltdowns. I also have experience helping navigate conflict resolution. I am the best fit for a family who values children learning emotional skills over learning manners. I know manners are extremely important to many families, but I prefer to let a child have big feelings, help them through those feelings and develop age appropriate skills to help them the next time it happens. I will absolutely help kiddos learn manners ("please" and "thank yous") but only when the kiddo seems in the right head space to absorb such info. For example, if a kiddo is having a bad day and yells at me that I'm stupid, I am more likely to respond by asking, "is that how you feel about me right now?" than asking for an apology. Then after they've calmed down, I would say something like, "I know you were frustrated with me earlier, and that is absolutely okay. But let's come up with a different thing you can say to me instead of telling me I'm stupid." That way it's a process the kiddo and I are involved in together, and they feel like they have some control within a structured and boundaried relationship. If a baby is having a meltdown, I’m the kind of caregiver who will soothe them through it and validate their feelings, instead of trying to make the meltdown stop. I’m an avid reader (and a published author with HarperCollins!), and my hobbies include baking, knitting, sewing, yoga, meditation, singing, and doing theatre :) I am CPR and Choke Prevention certified. AND I LOVE PETS :D

I am a very loving and nurturing person. I can be playful as well. I am a lovable woman and I can relate to any age groups. I am committed to learning and getting to know people through effective communication. I would love to help children as best as possible and not just pay. I have been a caregiver for many elderly people in the Boston area. I love to cook and to keep things clean and organized

Hi! My name is Medjina. I’m a sophomore at Boston College studying Psychology and Human Development, and caring for others has always been something that comes naturally to me. I have experience in both childcare and healthcare. I currently work as a clinical assistant at Dana Farber, and before that I worked at Newton Wellesley Hospital. Those roles have taught me how to be responsible, patient, calm, and attentive, especially in busy or high stress situations. I am used to following routines, prioritizing safety, and communicating clearly with families. I also have a lot of experience working with children. I come from a big family and have spent many years babysitting younger cousins, including toddlers. I’ve always enjoyed being around kids and helping them feel comfortable and supported. I also volunteered as a camp counselor at a local YMCA, where I helped with daily routines, activities, meals, and supervision. That experience helped me learn how to keep kids engaged while also making sure they feel safe and cared for. What I love most about caregiving is building trust and being someone families can rely on. I enjoy creating a calm, positive environment where kids feel secure and parents feel at ease. I’m dependable, organized, and happy to help however I can. I’m comfortable with cooking, cleaning, organizing, household chores, and pet care, and I enjoy helping families keep things running smoothly. I would love the opportunity to support your family and be a sitter you can trust.
