Booked by 1 family in Nahant, MA

Hi! My name is Katie, I’m a 32-year-old professional nanny with over 10 years of experience caring for newborns, infants, toddlers, and school-age kids. I’m skilled in managing multiples, nanny shares, and children with behavioral, emotional regulation, or executive functioning challenges. My approach emphasizes connection, autonomy, and play-based learning, and I love tailoring activities to each child’s interests, whether that’s singing, dancing, crafting clay figurines, or exploring fun activities around Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore. I have done many different kinds of jobs including: long-term (3+ years) short-term, overnight, vacations, and date nights! I hold a Child & Youth Advocacy certificate and Associates in Liberal Arts Psychology from NSCC. I am also currently pursuing my Social Work degree at Salem State University. In addition, I volunteer with the Massachusetts Coalition for the Homeless and CASA, bringing a strong commitment to supporting children and families both professionally and in the community. Some of my specific strengths include: • Redirection and emotional coaching • Supporting intuitive eating • Managing ADHD and sensory needs • Creating practical systems that support families long-term Thanks Katie

“Katie is our current nanny to our 2.5-year-old twin girls, and she has been a wonderful addition to our family. One of the things we appreciate most about Katie is her knowledge of child development. She is always coming up with fun, age-appropriate activities that help our girls learn and grow while keeping them engaged and excited. She is also incredibly in tune with children's emotions and does a great job helping our daughters work through big feelings with patience, empathy, and understanding. Katie is dependable, caring, and genuinely invested in our girls' well-being and development. We feel very lucky to have found her and would highly recommend her to any family.”

Jillian $25 per hour for 1 child

I’ve been working with children for over 10 years, and caring for kids has always been so much more than just a job to me. 🤍 My experience ranges from overnight newborn care and caring for infant twins to working with children with special needs, school-age children, and pre-teens. I’ve also cared for family pets and have experience dog sitting, so I’m happy to help with furry family members too! 🐶 I currently work as a Tech Aide at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and hold my BLS certification. I’m responsible, dependable, patient, and comfortable caring for children with a variety of needs. Over the years, I’ve been lucky enough to become a trusted part of many families’ lives. To me, babysitting isn’t simply showing up for a few hours. It’s building a relationship with the children, creating a safe and nurturing environment, and becoming someone they know and trust. The families I work with often become like family to me, and that’s what makes this work so special. 🧸🤍

"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."

"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."

"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)."
