Hi My name is Angeline! I would love to offer my help and look after your little ones. I'm a mom of 3: 2 daughters (8&7) and a son (5 yrs old). Naturally that position helps you gain a lot of patience and become the ultimate multitasker! My Kiddos are in school from 7:30am until afterschool ends at 6pm. Their dad and I alternate days with pick ups ( Tuesday & Thursdays) I come from a family of 9, being the second oldest I have a variety of experience with children from newborn up to teen years. I've worked as a Junior camp counselor at two different Boys and Girls club locations. Briefly was a swim Instructor for special needs children (specifically autism and ADHD) and children of different backgrounds aged 0-12 years. I have also been on Urbansitter since ~2018 and have enjoyed meeting so many different families :) I am currently enrolled in a BSN program However I do keep my calendar frequently updated and still plan to utilize my services on urbansitter! In regard to weekends I am available solely on Saturdays after 11am with some availability for Sunday’s . But always have some flexibility just message me! Happy to provide help with light housekeeping , running errands , and of course homework help! I do have a valid drivers license , a clean driving record and my own insured vehicle. I am Vaccinated & Boosted for Covid since 7/5/2021 :) Also I am BLS CPR & First Aid Certified!

“Angeline was available last-minute when our 2 year old was home sick, and she did a fantastic job with him. He had so much fun, can't wait to have her back!”

Booked by 35 families in Cambridge, MA

I'm a young caring vibrant student going to school to become Doula then to eventually become a Nurse-Midwife. I love children I've always been reliable and independent when it comes to taking care of newborns up to teens. I also own a vehicle.

“Nephtalia was absolutely fantastic with our 2 kids. She was not just kind and caring, but also proactive and thoughtful. She would plan activities for the entire day, checking in with us frequently about plans and new ideas to both entertain and educate the children. We were absolutely blown away with her work and positive attitude and would highly recommend her!”

$28 per hour for 1 child

Booked by 8 families in Cambridge, MA

I’m passionate about working with children and connect easily with kids of all ages. Fluent in English, Arabic, and French, I enjoy gardening, cooking, and outdoor activities, creating fun, enriching experiences for young ones.

“Sahar was amazing with both my 2 month old and my 18 month old sons. I really appreciated how she was eager to help in any way she could and offered to help me sweep and cook dinner. She was incredible with my older son who is usually very clingy and only typically lets me take care of him when he’s sick. She was so creative with playing with him and both my kids and I loved really her friendly, sweet and positive personality ”

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

Amy L., mom of one

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

Kamilah W., mom of one

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
