Rachel $30 per hour for 1 child

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. 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 15, 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!

Caitlin $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Caitlin, a recent Wellesley College graduate with a B.A. in Psychology and over three years of professional childcare experience. I worked at Wellesley Community Children's Center as both a Teaching Assistant and EEC-Certified Infant/Toddler and Preschool Teacher, caring for children ages 0–6. Outside of work, I frequently babysat my students. I also spent a summer as a YMCA camp counselor, working with children ages 4–13. I am currently pursuing a career in child development research that has included an internship at Mass General's pediatric neuropsychology clinic and my present position as a research assistant on a Harvard study examining early education programs. My background in psychology and child development has given me a strong understanding of children's developmental needs, and I love finding creative ways to make everyday activities fun, engaging, and educational. I'm patient, nurturing, responsible, and attentive, and I especially enjoy getting to know each child's unique personality and interests. Whether we're reading, doing arts and crafts, exploring outside, playing games, or working through a tricky moment, I strive to create a safe, supportive environment where children feel comfortable and encouraged to be themselves. I'm also very familiar with communicating with parents about children's routines, behavior, and daily activities. I hold adult and pediatric CPR/AED/First Aid certifications and have experience with classroom organization, cleaning, lesson and activity planning, early literacy, and maintaining children's supplies. I'm happy to help with light household tasks related to childcare as well. In addition, I am experienced with caring for dogs and cats. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and provide thoughtful, dependable care!

Rashema $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Rashema and I’m currently working in healthcare in a patient care setting. I am offering childcare, and household services. I love working with children and have been working with them (infants, toddlers and teenagers) since I was 14 years old, in both professional and personal settings. My responsibilities have included at home babysitting, helping with homework, etc. I’ve worked at a daycare, briefly worked as an Registered Behavioral Technician where I worked 1 on 1 with a child with autism, and I have worked in patient with teenage girls who struggle with eating disorders. I am not allergic to any pets so I am open and able to work with families with pets! (I had 2 pairs of birds as pets when I was younger).

Booked by 5 families in Roslindale, MA

Hello! I am a student at Northeastern University here in Boston, but am originally from Southern California. I am currently studying Math and Data Science. I have been in childcare for over five years now, and have extensive experience with children of all ages. I have made long term connections with families in California, and am looking to make some here in Boston! My experience includes caring for multiple children, cooking, cleaning, bathing, taking to school/activities, and entertaining multiple children at once. I am mainly looking for nights and weekends as I am currently working a full-time internship. Looking forward to meeting you and your family!
