Sittercity helps Gardner families find the best babysitters

Hi! My name is Stephanie! I am 30 year old and currently living in Leominster. I am an EEC certified infant-toddler and preschool teacher. In total i’ve got about 10 years of childcare experience that ranges from private care to center based care. I left teaching officially in early 2021 and have been nannying privately ever since for a wonderful family. I am also fully single parent to a beautiful 5 year old girl. I can provide you with multiple letters of recommendation from babysitting clients as well as parents of children who I have taught :). I love doing sensory activities, watching movies with them, teaching them developmentally appropriate skills, educating them on reading and writing if they are ready, potty training, general motor and life skills; bringing them outside to run and climb, I have done it all and absolutely love it. it's rewarding watching them grow and learn! I'm more than willing to go along with whatever your child comes up with to do that day. I'm quite a good cook and I am completely comfortable with animals, in fact i love them! I am outgoing, energetic, fun and active but can definitely be stern if I need to be! I am totally capable of transportation (clean driving record as well!) I have no issues with cleaning up and doing laundry either, however I can continue to help your family I am willing to do!

Hello! My name is Alyson and I absolutely love children! I actually have 3 of my own- a 10 year old, 5 year old, and a 2 year old. I have been babysitting/nannying for over 15 years. I started watching my neighbors 5 kids when I was 11. I babysat for many families during my middle school and high school years and then switched to nanny jobs during college. After I received my Bachelor’s degree I stopped babysitting and nannying so I could work full time as a medical technologist and I started my own family. After the birth of our third I quit my job to stay home with our two younger children. I have decided to get back into babysitting/nannying as I genuinely love children. I have had a lot of experience with children throughout the years and a variety of unique situations, from children with peanut allergies to a child that had epilepsy. I love animals as much as I do children so household pets are not a problem. In addition, I am a non-smoker, and I was previously cpr certified, which has recently expired but I can work towards being re-certified if it’s desired.

Hi, I’m Isabella—Izzy works too. I’m 18, CPR + First Aid certified, and spent the last year as a lifeguard at Great Wolf Lodge, so safety is a habit for me. Experience I’ve looked after infants through 13-year-olds—in their homes, at mine, and out in public spots. I’m comfortable handling up to four kids at once and have regular experience with children on the autism spectrum. Parents say their kids trust me and enjoy our time together, whether we’re doing crafts, board games, or just getting outside. How I can help     •    Keep kids engaged with simple, screen-light activities     •    Homework support, especially math and English     •    Prep basic meals, handle dishes, light laundry, and general tidying I aim to give kids a calm, fun space and give parents real peace of mind. If that’s what you’re after, let’s talk.

Hi! I’m Rhianna and I’ve had the joy of babysitting for the same wonderful family for the past three years. During that time, I’ve gained a lot of experience caring for children of different ages and building strong, trusting relationships. I’m also CPR and First Aid certified, so safety is always a top priority. What I love most about my job is getting to be a part of a child’s growth and daily fun, I’m all about engaging kids through play, creativity, and involving them in everyday activities in ways that are both fun and meaningful. I truly believe what makes me great at what I do is that I genuinely love spending time with kids, and they can feel that. I’d be excited to bring that same energy and care to your family.

I am a children's ministry volunteer at my church aged one to three years old, we have a creation group we set up classes and teach the children. We do manual work, we sing, we dance. I would love to help someone who really want your kids being happy and safe. I have a 2 years old daughter. I brought her with me in my last two job as nanny and it was a great experience. I also speak português and a bit of Spanish.

I’m a 5-Star Babysitter Trusted by 13+ Families in Leominster! I’m CPR, First Aid & AED certified with over 9 years of experience. As the oldest of 8 siblings, I’ve been caring for little ones for most of my life—and now I’m a go-to sitter for 5 amazing families! I’ve cared for kids from newborns to age 13. I love making their day fun and creative—whether we’re outside, crafting, learning, or just being silly. I send photo/video updates too so you’re always in the loop! I also help with light cleaning, meal prep, laundry, and overnights. Need last-minute care? I’m happy to jump in! Looking forward to meeting your family—thank you!

Hi I'm Julianna (Julz), I am a first year graduate student at MGH IHP studying to earn a Masters of Science in speech-language pathology. I have about 7 years of childcare experience with 1.5 years at a daycare, mainly working with children ages 0-3, however I have experience with children up to 13 years old. I am infant/child/adult CPR and first aid certifications. I have a valid drivers license and reliable transportation. I grew up with many different pets, so I am very pet friendly!

I have well over 15 years of experience working with children. This includes in-home nannying, as well as in school settings as a preschool teacher, as well as 5 plus years of one on one behavioral therapist. I also teach children’s yoga and have two grown cherubs of my own. My son is 16 yrs old and my daughter is 19 years old. I can confidently say the nurturing comes naturally.

The majority of my education and career has been focused on learning and practicing effective ways of working with children. My first job in high school was being a teaching assistant for religious classes and then working at a daycare. I continued to explore careers with children working as a teaching assistant in public schools and as a tutor while studying in college. I received my master's degree in counseling psychology with a concentration in working with children and families. I was a mental health counselor for about 10 years and enjoyed the work that I did with children. In the last 5 years, I went back to tutoring, babysitting and working with developmentally disabled individuals to help them build social skills, emotion regulation skills and independent living skills. I have found that it is very important to build a trusting relationship with children and always to build off of their strengths. Children and individuals with disability thrive in a positive environment that has both structure and gives them some flexibility to make their own choices and explore their interests.
