Sittercity helps Leominster families find the best babysitters

Hello, my name is Stephanie and I’m a mom of one daughter who is 14. I’ve been working in the public schools for the last 12 years as an ABA therapist. I love working with children of all ages. I look forward to meeting you and your family.

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.

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!

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.

Mechee Cherine – Compassionate & Reliable Caregiver Specializing in Whole Family Support I am a hospitable, energetic, loving, and caring caregiver with 12 years of experience working with children of various ages in diverse settings, including primary and secondary schools, a high school boarding academy, summer camps, and birth and postpartum care. Throughout my career, I have served as a teacher’s aide, babysitter for my community, assistant dean, activities coordinator for a summer camp, and Girls’ Director for a summer camp. Currently, I work as a postpartum care specialist, providing families with the support they need during the crucial early weeks and months after birth. My passion extends beyond childcare—I focus on a whole-family approach where no one is left out. While I absolutely love working with children, I find true fulfillment in supporting parents, ensuring they feel empowered and cared for during their journey. I have extensive training as a childbirth educator, birth doula, health advocate, and mental health coach. In addition, I am currently pursuing certifications as a lactation consultant, newborn care specialist, perinatal nutrition educator, and maternal mental health care provider. My skills include meal preparation, laundry, running errands, school pick-up and drop-off, diaper changes, sleep strategies, and engaging hands-on activities. I am also CPR & First Aid certified, ensuring safety and preparedness in any situation. Outside of my work, I enjoy art, reading, traveling, cooking, writing, church activities, exploring the outdoors, learning, and trying out foods from different cultures. If you’re looking for a reliable, experienced, and compassionate caregiver who understands the importance of nurturing both parents and children, feel free to reach out! I’d be happy to set up a call or provide references.

My name is Amanda, and caring for children and constantly learning about development, learning techniques, and being the best version of myself are at the top of the list of my passions! Background: Born and raised on Cape Cod, MA. Bachelor's in baking & pastry and management(2010) Early Childhood Development Certification(2016) Former daycare owner. My career has always looped back around to working with children, and I couldn't be more happy about that. I've been with my current family for over 2 years now, and I can honestly say they would agree I'm part of the family now. With their mother being a pediatrician, I have learned an immense amount from her, and the families 2 girls that have become my best friends. My creativity spark exploded these past 2 years, and cardboard and a glue gun have become such a fun part of their learning(honestly!). Older girl was reading just before 3 years old and is now at 3rd grade level at the age of 4, and the younger one who just turned 3(Feb of 2023) is on the cusp of reading. I only share that because ive truly seen the potential in children and how dedication and consistently can make their learning beautifully bloom. (I understand every child learns at different paces, and I never ever push learning when a child isn't ready). I love cooking and baking for the family, and it's also a great opportunity to do with kids! I actually love cleaning and it's a weird therapy for me, so organizing, laundry, dishes, etc are never an issue. I really want to find a family I can grow with in the next years, and one that is willing to learn from me and vice versa. I can't say enough how much it fills my heart to work with infants, toddlers, and children. I hope to hear from you.

I’m a stayed home mother of two girls, 27 and 21 years old. I have a BA in English Literature and an MBA. I decided to stay home when they were very young and just worked part time when my girls were in school. I believe that teaching kids as much as you can are very important especially at young age since they learn so quickly and easily. I’ve been babysitting/nannying children from newborn to 10 years old for the last 9 years. I am CPR certified.

Here is a little bit about me. *Self-description* I am spunky, fun and dependable. I enjoy doing crafts and playing games. I also take joy in playgrounds, riding bikes, swimming, the library, and other fun things! I feel I would be a great companion for your child. *Additional information* I began an interest in caring for children when I was 13. I would babysit for families in the neighborhood. As I entered high school they had a day care in one of the wings. I began working there for credit.  From that point on I have always had a job working with children *Challenges of position* I have been with one of my families for 10 years, and I find that as they get older the respect level and listening skills decrease a little bit. It makes it difficult for me implement the rules of the house, so I have to be creative in my methods. *Rewards of position* It is a good feeling knowing that I am an important part in a child's life. Being able to watch them grow and help them with life decisions means a great deal to me.
