Kevin 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child

I have 4 years of experience working with young children as an Associate Preschool Teacher. I’m patient, dependable, caring, and attentive, and I genuinely enjoy helping children learn, grow, and have fun. I’m comfortable creating a safe, positive, and engaging environment while also being responsive to each child’s individual needs.

“Kevin has been a wonderful babysitter for our family. I have both a 5 year old and a 2 year old. He’s extremely professional, always on time, has a ton of experience and the kids just love to play and read with him. Dinner bath and bedtime aren’t easy and Kevin always has done a great job staying on schedule and successfully following the routine.”

Booked by 1 family in Somerville, MA

With over ten years of experience in child caregiving, I have developed a deep passion for supporting and nurturing children. Starting as a babysitter at the age of 12, I have worked with kids ranging from 9 months to 17 years old. My experience includes tutoring dyslexic students, working at a summer camp, and providing care for children with special needs. Currently, I serve as a behavioral therapist for autistic children, where I apply tailored strategies to support their growth and development. I am dedicated to creating positive, enriching experiences for every child I work with.

I am in New York City for the summer in the middle of my MSW program at Simmons University. I have extensive experience working with children in a variety of capacities (school counselor, teacher assistant, afterschool assistant, ABA assistant therapist, school social work intern, babysitter) I am a somewhat recent graduate from Boston College with an Applied Psychology and Human Development B.A. I am currently pursuing my MSW at Simmons University and am looking to help families with occasional or part-time babysitting, pet sitting, or other services. If you would like to discuss more, I can forward my resume and/or references. I would love to hear from you :)
