Kathelin 1 review
Boston
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hello Families! My name is Kat, and I’m excited to connect with you. I bring over 15 years of experience caring for children from infancy through middle school, with a strong background in early childhood education and the arts. I’ve worked as an assistant teacher in an infant classroom, a toddler teacher, and later a Pre-K teacher at a performing arts preschool, where I also taught Spanish and drama electives. I’m bilingual in Spanish and hold a degree in Theatre Arts, which I love incorporating into creative, playful learning experiences with children. Beyond early childhood, I’ve worked as a one-to-one paraprofessional at Dover-Sherborn Public Schools and as a Surround Care Paraprofessional for K2 with Boston Public Schools. Most recently, I was a dance teacher for grades K0–1st. I’m currently shifting my focus toward infant care and supporting new mothers, and I’m in the process of becoming a certified Postpartum Doula, though I still enjoy working with children of all ages! I’m an energetic, crafty, and nature-loving caregiver who believes strongly in learning through play. I love engaging kids in activities like arts and crafts, dancing, outdoor play, and neighborhood exploring. I also offer homework help, and I’m First Aid/CPR certified. I’m available for part-time work, infant care, and the occasional date night. Bonus: I’m a big fan of dogs and am happy to help out if you have a furry family member. I look forward to learning more about your family!

Kathelin is a reliable and responsible babysitter. She has good experience with kids, keeps them safe and on schedule, and handles everything in a calm, professional way. She shows up on time, communicates well, and I always feel comfortable leaving my kids in her care. I would definitely recommend her

Booked by 2 families in West Newton, MA

I’ve been working with kids in all kinds of settings for years, and caring for others has always come naturally to me. I started babysitting at 15, and soon after spent a full year helping out at a daycare with children ranging from 9 months to 8 years old. Since then, I’ve continued to grow my experience in different environments. As well as being the oldest child in my family. For the past five summers, I’ve been a sleep away camp counselor, teaching kids how to sailing and living with kids ages 6 to 14 for up to eight weeks at a time. I’ve also volunteered with preschoolers through Jumpstart for a year, supporting early learning and social development. Right now, I’m a college student doing work‑study at an elementary school, where I assist in both kindergarten and 2nd grade classrooms. These experiences have taught me patience, creativity, responsibility, and how to connect with kids of all ages. Families and employers describe me as dependable, upbeat, and calm under pressure. I’m great with routines, homework help, playtime, and keeping kids engaged. I’m also comfortable with pets and happy to help with light household tasks. And most importantly, I genuinely love what I do. Kids can tell when someone enjoys being around them, and I think that’s what makes the biggest difference.

Chloe Boston
$21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Chloe and I am a senior at Northeastern University studying finance and economics, with a deep passion for the arts and creativity. Outside of the classroom, I spent fifteen years training competitively as a figure skater, and I love bringing that same focus, energy, and dedication into my work with families. I love finding engaging, hands-on ways to connect with kids, whether we are exploring watercolor painting, learning a bit about art history, or chatting about different cultures I have experienced while traveling. I offer both child care and household services, bringing extensive experience with children ranging from ages three to sixteen. Over the years, I have provided everything from after-school care to physical training through figure skating lessons, ensuring that kids stay active, keep up with their homework, and have genuine fun. Because of the close bonds I build, many of my after-school families have transitioned me into long-term, one-on-one care throughout the summers and school years. I am also happy to help keep your home running smoothly by assisting with light cleaning, organizing, and local errands or grocery pickups. I treat every child with the utmost love and respect, and I look forward to supporting your family. Thank you!

"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."

Kamilah W., mom of one

photo of quoted parent Eric

"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)."
