Sara has been such an amazing addition to our family over the last year. She has cared for our infant daughter who adores her. She helped us navigate our daughters changing needs, teething, sleep schedules, and more. She is incredibly proactive and jumps in to help out whenever needed which has been such a huge help. She has also been so flexible with all of the changes throughout the pandemic which made navigating the unique work and school changes much easier! We are so sad to no longer have her with us but we know she will be able to provide amazing care for another family!

Are you looking for an occasional sitter? A summertime sitter? I’m a full time art teacher during the school year. I’m seeking occasional sitting positions and summer time sitting positions. Perhaps you need a date night or just need an occasional night out. I have CPR, first aid and epi pen training. I have raised my son and also two step daughters who are now adults. I had been a lifeguard when I was 16, of course all that training is expired, but I feel that those life experiences stay with you. I look forward to hearing from you. I am vaccinated for Covid-19

We met Sandie at the beginning of the pandemic through Dumpling, which is a personal shopping app. She was our food shopping angel during Covid and 2 years later not only does she still shop for us, but we have her occasionally babysit our 4 year old who loves Sandie! Flexible, thorough, and just all around a nice person.

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!

Hi! My name is Cynthia and I am a hospice volunteer who is about to start medical school this summer. I realized I wanted to become a babysitter when I worked as a Sales Associate at Spirit Halloween this year since my favorite part of the job was interacting with families and children.

Cynthia has been an absolutely wonderful part-time caregiver for our three-year-old son over the past four months. From the very beginning, she formed an immediate connection with him through her warm, cheerful, and engaging personality. He genuinely enjoys spending time with her, and it's been a joy to see their bond grow. Cynthia is gentle, attentive, patient, and incredibly caring. She is always fully present and engaged, and we have complete confidence in her ability to care for our son. As parents, we especially appreciate how courteous, supportive, punctual, and reliable she is. Knowing that Cynthia is with our son gives us tremendous peace of mind. We feel very fortunate to have found Cynthia and would not hesitate to hire her again in the future. We wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy, loving, and dependable caregiver.

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!

I have been a caregiver for over 10 years. I tried a few different jobs during my early twenties and found caregiving kind of by accident but have loved ever second of it. I love how everyday is different and exciting, and working with kids is so much fun. I mean who wouldn't want to go to work and laugh everyday. I try to keep things interesting for the kids I'm working with as well, by trying to get out of the house and do fun activities or even try to find fun games to play around the house. I have worked with a wide range of clients from brand new newborns to older children as well as a few jobs with the elderly. I am a hard worker who is always willing to go the extra mile for my clients, I believe that I'm there to help make the parents lives a little less stressful so I'm always willing to lend a hand with housework or errands, driving from place to place for pick ups/drop offs.
