I really like and generally have a very good rapport with most children (toddlers, especially) and have experience baby sitting and taking out for entertainment events several generations of nieces, nephews, grand-nieces & nephews, Enjoy reading, theatre/dance/music concerts and cultural events/venues, stories & re-enacting characters with and for children. I've worked in the past at the Wheelock Family Theatre and have worked as costumed characters in holiday events, especially (e g. X-Mas Elf at Filene's and Macy's; Mouse King in Boston Ballet Nutcracker promos, etc. Also, I'm a dog-lover .... have a good "rapport" with them, too. Many dogs I don't know will approach me for friendly attention while being walked. It appears - like children - that they have a "sixth sense", too. I'm also able to take on occasional office-support, general cleaning, and small special projects. I work PT and remotely from home in B2B sales and marketing. As my schedule can be somewhat flexible, I occasionally have open times for baby sitting, generally in the late afternoon, evenings, on some weekends, and - when remote work is slow - sometimes earlier in the day on weekdays.
Hi, I'm Rachel! I’m a calm, caring, and dependable person who genuinely loves caring for children and finds being of service deeply rewarding. Most recently, I’ve been a part-time nanny for a family with a 1-year-old girl and 3-year-old boy, caring for them individually and together, including full days. I’m comfortable with meals, diapers and potty routines, naps, active play, big emotions, and keeping little ones safe and engaged. I was also a full-time nanny for a 1-year-old earlier in life and have helped care for my two nephews, now 12 and 14, throughout their lives. As an artist and writer, I love encouraging creativity and imagination through art, games, stories, music, dancing, and outdoor play. I’m warm and playful while providing healthy boundaries, and prefer active engagement over screens. I’m hoping to find a family I can support consistently and grow with long-term. I’m also happy to help with cooking, errands, light cleaning, laundry, and organizing—and I love animals!
Hi! My name is Vivian and I am currently 18 years old as a senior in highschool at Beaver Country Day in Brookline. I have been working with children for many years now. Starting at the age of 11, I became a mothers helper for some of my neighbors. Along side my babysitting jobs, I have had lots of professional experience with children as well. When I turned `13, I became a Conselor in Training at Beaver Summer Camp and for every summer since, I have been a Camp Counselor for campers ages 3-6. Futhermore, when I was 14-16, I volenteered everyday at the Pine Manor Child Study Center as an assistant teacher. This past winter, I also worked as an assistant teacher with children ages 6-9 at the Boston Community Center for Youth and Families. Please feel free to reach out!!
Hi there! I'm Allie, and I'm a Boston-based college professor and professional actor. I’m currently on summer break and available for short-term childcare opportunities! A bit about me—I moved to Boston to pursue my MFA in Theatre Education at Emerson College, but before that I lived in New York City, where I worked as a full-time nanny (and professional actor!). I have over ten years of childcare and children's education experience, and I'd love to meet you and your family. As a babysitter, I understand that every child and family is unique. I specialize in working with school-age children, children with severe allergies, children of LGBTQ+ families, high net worth families, and children with extra support needs (Prader-Willi syndrome, autism, ADHD, dyslexia, anxiety disorder, mood regulation disorder). I work carefully with parents to create a customized care plan to help their children thrive socially, emotionally, and academically. And as a professional actor, I also love to have fun and encourage imaginative play! My full resume and references are available upon request. I look forward to connecting with you soon!
“Ali is great and so creative — our girls had the best time. ”
