I have babysat/nannied for the last 25 years both part time and full time. I graduated in 2006 from Framingham State College where I majored in Early Childhood Education and Psychology. I taught preschool for 3 years and have nannied since. I have experience with children of all ages, and have taken care of up to 5 children at a time. While I was in college I babysat for about 15-20 different families in the Framingham area that have children that range from newborns to 13 years old. I have also babysat for many families in the Tewksbury and Plaistow area that have children that range from newborns to 10 years old. I also have 2 boys of my own who are 12 and 6 I look forward to hearing from you!

Jessica must have a secret with children ! Our 3y old son just loved her and didn't even cry when we left as he usually does with babysitters. He keeps talking about her since then and I will definitely call her the next time we need a sitter. She really seemed to love children and naturally know what to do with them. She also took care of our 16 months old and did great to get her back to sleep for the first time with a stranger. I was amazed ! I would recommend her.

I grew up taking care of my young family members and even their friends kids! I fell in love right away with caring for them. I continued my passion into working with children at a school and even pursued into getting certified for children with special needs! I love kids! Nurturing them, and also giving back to the families who need the support or maybe just want to enjoy themselves as well. You guys deserve so much. I can also start ASAP! 😊

Hi! I am free weekday afternoons after 5 pm. Additionally, nights/overnights/weekends. Please feel free to message me with any questions, I’m always down to hop on a call and chat! My name is Yaneliz and I have been babysitting for about 7 years now. I’ve had experience with several families, kids ages ranging from 2 years old to 16 years old. I’ve also dog sitted :) I used to be a lifeguard at the Greater Lowell YMCA and was Lifeguard/First Aid/CPR/AED Certified for 3 years. I also have 4 years of experience teaching swim lessons for ages ranging from 1 to 13 years old. My day job now is a Civil Engineer and I went to UML, but I babysit on my free time! I have excellent communication skills and I'm patient. I'm willing to help with any tasks presented. I'm also fluent in Spanish! I have very reliable transportation with my Rav 4 Toyota 😎

I live in Amesbury on High St. I am looking for babysitting jobs. I am great with kids, love to get down and play, go outside, bake, do crafts, read, etc., etc. I am experienced and was a nanny/babysitter in NY so I could live near my son, an actor. Now I am back to my hometown area and live between my sister’s in Newburyport and my sister’s in Nottingham, NH. I took care of my niece from 4 months until she turned 5 for 3 days a week and 2 overnights in a row. I was a live-In Nanny/Household Manager to a 6 year old girl from August 2012 to April 2013. Also for a 3 and 4 year old for the summer. I was a live-in Nanny/House Manager for a family of 2 children and a dog. While raising my son, Keith, I always had my sister's 3 children, to give my son playmates. I was the 4th child of 8 children in a loving, happy family and helped my Mom raise 4 of my younger siblings, as well as managing a household, cooking and homework help. You will never find a more loving, caring and patient babysitter for your children. I'm retired from the Air Force after 20 years.

Sheila has been great for us as a last minute sitter! Sometimes, when our daily childcare falls through, we end up scrambling to find someone to fill in. Sheila has been very responsive and able to come help out. She is great with our infant daughter - able to keep her happy, put her down for naps etc. We feel very lucky to have found Sheila! :)

Hello there! My name is Sarah Spear I'm a 30 old former teacher. I know finding the right fit for your family is important, so I'll tell you a little about myself! I recently moved to the Merrimac Valley area & am looking for reliable families I can help! I graduated from Westfield State University with a degree in Special Education in 2017 and went on to receive my masters in special education in 2023. I was the lead teacher for a preschool classroom for 8 years until I recently moved. I have worked with children my whole life, including working as a camp counselor for children ages 3-6, working as a teacher assistant at a school for students with varying disabilities for ages 10-22, as well as babysitting for over 13 years. I have worked with all ages and have taught preschool, second grade, and fifth grade. I have many years of experience with newborns, infants, and toddlers as well. I am CPR/First Aid certified, have many years of experience and I love to be active and engaging! Driving is not a problem with me, as I have a car and am comfortable driving to/from events in the area! I have two toddler car seats (Graco) installed in my car.

Abigail helped my family between January and May of 2025. She was amazing with my kids and they naturally bonded with her. She helped tutor each child based on their needs in English and Math (1st grader, 3rd grader, and 5th grader), and was a wonderful influence on them and their behavior. She helped with errands when needed such as groceries, Dr appointments, and even did some light cleaning. She helped ensure my kids did their homework when they got home and their chores as needed. She provided sufficient communication on her availability, confirmed pickup logistics each week, and was very dependable and on time. She was a delight to work with, hope she will return to help the family out in the future, and you would be lucky to have her as a sitter.

Ana cared for our daughter from the time she was seven months old, and we truly couldn't have asked for a more loving, capable, and trustworthy nanny. From day one, she treated our little girl as if she were her own — patient, warm, and completely dependable. Ana supported our daughter through every early milestone, from her first solid foods to crawling, walking, and her first words. As a native Spanish speaker, she was an essential part of our bilingual, OPOL household, giving our daughter a rich Spanish-immersion environment every day. She embraced our Montessori approach, prepared healthy homemade meals, established gentle and consistent nap and sleep routines, and always kept us informed with thoughtful daily updates. Beyond her skills, what stood out most was Ana's genuine kindness and reliability. She was wonderful with our two dogs, kept our home organized, and was someone we trusted completely and without hesitation. We are only saying goodbye because we're relocating out of state, and we recommend Ana wholeheartedly. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have her.
