Dylan $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi caregivers! My name is Dylan, and I’m currently looking for one-time jobs since I’m currently in graduate school! I am currently pursuing my Masters in Speech Language Pathology at Emerson College. I previously attended the University of Connecticut where I studied Communication Sciences and American Sign Language. My experience working with children started in 2022. In the summer of 2022, my first job was at a summer camp for Deaf and Hard of Hearing Children. It was an overnight camp where I also taught archery. Following that experience, I decided to pursue more experiences in childcare and was hired at an early care and education center that I worked at part time while at UConn. During winter and summer breaks I often babysat and dogsat for many families. I also have experience working at a children’s fitness club within the gym I used to go to in my hometown. My most recent experiences have been working with children 3-17 years old as a Teacher of the Deaf during the 2[removed] school year. So far, as a graduate student clinician I’ve worked with infants, toddlers and school-age children. I do not have much experience with seniors, however, my first job was working as a waiter at a retirement home!

Lilah $16 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Lilah and I am a freshman at Berklee College of Music with a lot of free time that I would love to spend getting to know my community. I have been babysitting kids ranging from ages 3-15 for 2 and a half years along with my two younger sisters who are now 12 and 15. I love spending time with kids singing karaoke, making fun snacks, doing arts and crafts, and playing games (my personal favorite is uno). I also would be more than willing to help out around the house whether that’s cleaning, running errands, or cooking delicious and nutritious meals!

Allison $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Allison, a junior at Simmons University studying sociology, public health, and communications. I am looking for a number of caregiving roles in childcare, pet care, and household care. I have experience in a number of care giving settings including as a summer camp counselor to kids (ages 4-9), babysitting for family friends (ages 5-12), cat/dog sitting for family and friends, as well as house sitting and cleaning for family and friends. I am a very organized, detail oriented, and dependable person in my work, school, and personal life. In my experience as a summer camp counselor I helped to manage and engage groups of up to 50 children in crowded public places such as amusement parks, ensured children’s safety while having fun in a variety of environments including swimming holes, and adapted activities to help suit children with different individual needs.
