Sittercity helps Huntington families find the best babysitters

I have been working with children since I was 12 years old! My work has ranged from working as a nanny for a 7 month old, leading a kids summer playwriting group, providing swim instruction to infants up to age 12, and providing residential and social support to young adults with learning differences and autism spectrum disorders. I truly enjoy empowering children, helping them find their strengths and encouraging creativity, self-sufficiency, and curiosity by engaging them and including them in everyday activities such as cooking, cleanup, putting away belongings, dance and music, making art and crafts, spending time outdoors. I love working with children and seeing their unique perspectives and watching them discover the world around them, I find this immensely satisfying. 

Hello, my name is Iryna. I am 22 and looking for a part time job. I am friendly and become friends with kids very fast. I have A lot of experience with babysitting children since I was fourteen. I also have a CNA license and CPR certification.

Hi, my name is Lydia! I am looking for a family in need of full time care for their child (M-F). I have worked in childcare for 7 years. I started as a babysitter/nanny, became the director of an after school program and was a preschool/toddler teacher in the Boston area for 3 years. I am looking to get back into the childcare world and would love to find a family who is looking for someone to care for their child. I have an associates degree in Elementary Education and I am EEC Preschool Teacher certified. I love guiding children while they learn through play, exploring books/crafts and letting them enjoy all there is to being a kid. Helping children navigate their emotions and grow into their own little happy human is my passion!

I love caring for kids of all ages as there are always new things to do and explore with them. I find fun working with all age groups from babies to high schoolers. I have years of experience working at a summer art camp with kids from ages 4-13. There we had fun playing games, going on outdoor adventures, and making many collaborative arts and crafts projects. With kids under four I worked at a daycare for a few years where I was regularly working with babies and toddlers. Finally, with older kids 13+, I have taught music lessons and led games with that age group. I am first aid and CPR certified. Some things that I love are playing my instruments, reading fantasy books, musicals, dogs, horses, and outdoor adventures!

My name is Nicole (I go by Nicky), I’m 23 years old and currently reside in Western Massachusetts doing what I love! I am a full-time infant teacher at a day centre and love my job as I’ve always known I wanted to work with kids and it stems from when my family first adopted my little brother and we assisted in his orphanage. We helped plate out food, entertained the kids, and ensured they were getting all the tender loving care! I’ve always walked away feeling rewarded when working with kids, whether it be a hard or easy day. I started college at Umass Amherst and am planning to finish up at Greenfield Community College as a part-time student. I am majoring in Psychology (Child behaviour and development) in hopes of one day becoming a Child Therapist! During high school, I was a babysitter for one family and after I graduated (2020) I became a full-time nanny for a little girl and was with that family for 2.5 years and now an infant teacher:) I am a really open-minded, hardworking, and fun person who loves to learn and gain all types of experience! When I'm not around my kiddos, I love to go on walks, hikes, or any type of adventure with food at the end! However, when it is raining I will 100% be inside watching a movie/reading a book or at the gym grinding! I love dogs and cats but am not so great with reptiles or bugs:( A fun fact about myself is that I used to live in Spain not once but twice and loved it both times! I hope that one day I can go back to living next to the ocean:) If you have any questions please feel free to ask, I am an open book!

Hello! My name's Tori, I'm an Assistant Preschool Teacher at a daycare, and am currently looking for part-time/one-time positions. I have plenty of experience with child care, from babysitting family and friends' kids to raising my two brothers due to the hospitalization of my mother (they are now 5 and 7!) I've always loved children and always felt I was meant to work with kids ranging from newborns to middle school age. I am willing to be expected to do tasks such as cleaning, caring for pets, preparing meals and so on.

Hi! My name is Stella and I’m a senior at Mount Holyoke majoring in Psychology and Education, about to graduate with Massachusetts Early Childhood Educator licensure. For the past two years, I served as a student and substitute teacher at Hadley Elementary School, where I developed bilingual Spanish/English lessons for a second-grader learning foundational English skills. Additionally, I have served as an Enrichment Teacher within the LAUSD, leading science, art, and physical education classes for children ages 4-11. In every role I step into, I facilitate play-based learning with creativity and warmth. I holistically enrich and celebrate students of all backgrounds and identities. This summer, I’m seeking a flexible childcare position before I dive into full-time teaching. Please do not hesitate to reach out for more information about my qualifications. I look forward to the prospect of working with your family ☺️ Warmly, Stella Genis

I am a Career Development Counselor at Holyoke Community College. I use child development theory when working with children to meet kiddos where they are at developmentally. I love spending time with kids who are interested in drawing, doing crafts, reading books, and playing outside! I’m not a couch potato, so my focus would be on activities that involve the least amount of TV as possible :) I am fluent in Spanish & Urdu. As I have a full-time job, my babysitting availability is limited to date nights, weekends, and holidays.
