Joan babysat for my 5 and 2 year old recently. I could tell that the safety and comfort of the kids is a priority for her. Joan is also very reliable; I got the impression that she is the type who always shows up on time and keeps her commitments. I've had a couple experiences in the past where a babysitter is happy to show up if it is rainy or cold outside but as soon as the weather is nice, they text you and say they have a family matter. I'm confident that you won't have to worry about this with Joan; she even showed up on a holiday weekend when it was sunny and in the 80's. If you are looking for someone more mature who will not be texting her friends, inviting people over, etc while she is watching the kids, then I would highly recommend getting in touch with Joan.

Britni S., Babysitter in Ashland, MA 01721 with 16 years of paid experience

Hello there, I am an experienced and educated childcare provider who has over 14 years of hands-on experience and a genuine love of children and their development. I have worked with children from birth through 17 years of age in various roles, but primarily in-home - providing support to the family unit and focusing on developmental support. I am college educated in Early Education, with a minor in special education that allows me the knowledge and experience to provide added support in the reaching of milestones and/or special challenges if they arise or become an area of concern. I have experience working with Early Intervention and can assist with Speech or Occupational concerns as well as ABA and sensory seeking behavioral supports with or without guidance. I hold current CPR and First Aid certifications, as well as various allergy training certifications and a complex pediatric Diabetes training completion through the Joslin center in Boston. A clean background check, clear driving record and reputable references are available upon request. With my childcare services you can expect my willingness to commit to household management as well as pet care and to provide the absolute best and thorough attention to your bundles of joy as if they were my own. If you are looking to add a member to your childcare village, please reach out and we can set up a time to connect. Looking forward to hearing from you! Best, Britni

We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our 6 and 2 year kids. Britni was wonderful with both kids and immediately made them feel comfortable. She was attentive, responsible, and playful, and did a great job balancing the different needs and personalities of both children. We felt completely comfortable leaving them in her care and came home to two happy (and sleeping) kids! In the morning the 6 year old told us he couldn't wait until the next time! We would absolutely recommend Britni to other families and would love to have her sit for us again.

Amber was fantastic with our 18 month old! They had a blast and we had no concerns about leaving our child in Amber's capable hands for a few hours. We look forward to working with Amber again!

Dalia helped us and took care of our 5 months-old twins when I had an appointment. She stayed half an hour longer than she expected to stay to ensure I was back home. Babies were happy, smiling, and in clean diapers. they had their nap and were entertained with songs and books. I only had her help for a couple of hours but clearly, she was energetic and kind to babies. Sadly she is leaving the state, so we won't able to have her assistance in the future.

Shivapriya B., Babysitter in Ashland, MA 01721 with 4 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Shivapriya, but I go by Shugi! I’m currently a senior at Westfield State University and have moved back to my hometown of Ashland, MA, where I’ll be completing my final semester from home. I absolutely love working with kids and have several years of experience in childcare and youth programs! I’ve worked as a tutor, summer camp staff member (2023 & 2024), and Site Coordinator for a school-age program near my university (2024–2026). As a Site Coordinator, I was responsible for supervising groups of up to 22 children, managing and supporting my staff, planning activities, and creating a fun, safe, and positive environment for every child. I am EEC and First Aid certified and have completed all of my required Redwoods trainings and certifications. I was born and raised in Massachusetts and am also fluent in both English and Tamil! Outside of school and childcare, I love staying active and being outdoors, cooking, baking, and doing arts and crafts. I’m also currently working toward becoming certified as a fitness instructor, as health and fitness have become another passion of mine! I’m very adaptable and comfortable working with children of different ages, personalities, and interests. I’m also more than happy to help out with furry family members! My goal is to create an environment where your children feel safe, comfortable, engaged, and, most importantly, have fun. I’d love the opportunity to get to know you and your family!
