Valerie S.
- 12 years paid experience
- 11 miles

Hello parents! My name is Valerie, I am 30 years old and live in Somerville, MA. I have extensive childcare experience and I will do my best to share the condensed version. Buckle up, I started a babysitters club in high school and never looked back. Being trusted to care for children has been a gift and a job I don't take lightly. I do my best to provide a loving, patient, and playful approach. I practice a mix of positive discipline and the Montessori method. A little about my work experience. I have 6 years of preschool teaching experience and 15 years of professional childcare experience. I have provided before/after school care, overnight care, traveled abroad long term, live in and live out, and most recently ran a nanny share with two toddlers and two babies. I've spent the last 9 summers working at an overnight camp in Vermont with young girls and boys. In my time at camp I've worked in the Wilderness department teaching hard skills, High ropes course, Archery, and led trips in the White Mountains. I have a deep love for nature and enjoy spending time outside. I am currently transitioning out of my nanny job as my kiddos are off to school and daycare. I am pursuing a certification to become a doula and hope to focus on postpartum care/support once completed. In the meantime I am hoping to assist with date nights, interim nanny, travel, overnight, and back up care. In addition, I am able to prepare meals, run errands, care for pets, manage household tasks, house sit, assist in planning educational activities for children, potty train, sleep train, assist with transitions (moving out of crib, becoming an older sibling, etc.) and teach Spanish.

Hi! My name is Alynah, and I’m a 4th-year medical student. I recently moved to Boston to work at Harvard/BIDMC on a research fellowship prior to graduating with my MD. I am well-trained to handle various situations and am certified in BLS, CPR, and First Aid. As the oldest of four children and 26 grandchildren, I have spent much of my life watching, feeding, cleaning up after, playing with, and teaching kids of all ages. Since joining Sittercity, I have babysat 14 children between 10 months and 10 years and had a blast every time! During undergrad, I spent two years working with individuals with disabilities on college-level coursework, job applications, and social activities. I genuinely enjoy spending time with young people from all backgrounds. Being away from home makes me miss connecting with children, so hanging out with your kiddos in my free time would help Boston feel more like home. I have a car and am willing to drop off and pick up kids from extracurricular activities, help with homework, cook meals, run small errands, and more, as long as the tasks are clearly defined and agreed upon beforehand. I look forward to meeting you and your kiddos! Thank you for considering my application!

Marie L.
- 12 years paid experience
- 3 miles

I have been babysitting, nannying, and pet-sitting for about 12 years now. I have experience caring for children ages 1 month - 15 years, with and without learning and behavioral disabilities such as speech delays, autism, and anxiety. Throughout middle school and high school, I would babysit a few days a week including weekends and regularly over the summer. While attending college, I babysat each month I returned home for breaks as well as regularly over the summer. After graduating from college I was working as a full-time teacher/residential aide at the New England Center for Children with adolescent boys who have severe Autism. In 2022, I moved to Charleston, SC and taught 4th-6th grade at a Montessori school. I currently live in Waltham, MA and I am in grad school to be a School Psychologist! I personally like to be as active as possible when babysitting, to not only keep the kids busy but to also maximize my time with them. I like to be outside and do outdoor activities the most, but when inside I like to play games or do arts and crafts. Art is a personal outlet for me so I like to spread my love for it to children as I know they typically enjoy it as well. I can babysit up to three kids but I believe I can work best when babysitting 1-2.

Lauren G.

Hi! My name is Lauren and I hail from a background in school safety and emergency preparedness. 🎒Let me tell you why I would be a great match for your kid/s. I have a wide array of interests from design and art, any outdoor recreation, cooking, history, fiction fanatic, and technology. My sense of humor makes kids comfortable, and my wild imagination keeps them entertained. 🪁I connect intuitively with children, and aim to strike a balance between physical and mental activity, while identifying cues for downtime. I am immensely goofy, creative, an avid reader, TV-averse, a champion of silly stories, and can make yummy balanced meals! 👩🚒 Most recently, I am a seasonal wildland firefighter for the federal government. This summer I am taking a break after several intense years, and recalibrating while staying at my parents house in Needham. 🚙 I have a clean, well-maintained 2010 Honda Odyssey with a clean driving record, and I am a confident city driver, even with a car full of energetic kids! I have passed several driving exams and driving courses for work. Additional relevant background: 🦺 ⛑️Pre-Firefighting I was a crisis response specialist for schools of all sizes, guiding them through any type of emergency or disaster alongside first responders. I have been a CPR/First Aid/Search and Rescue instructor for educators, and I regularly receive training and volunteer for Red Cross and FEMA. As a post-grad I worked as an EMT in the Middle East. 👨👩👦👦Pre-Covid, I spent several years nannying long-term between two families, one of which has a child with severe mental and physical disabilities, and this is where I learned to care for a child, rather than just babysit. I have also been babysitting or a camp counselor since age 12. Looking forward to meeting a great family!

Hi families! My name is Gisela, I’m 33 years old and an experienced babysitter who truly enjoys caring for children and supporting their well-being. I’m currently finishing my MITS certificate and studying Accounting, and I’m looking for babysitting opportunities starting August 15. Since I was young, I’ve cared for my younger siblings and later my nieces and nephews, which gave me a strong sense of responsibility and love for childcare. I also worked for three years with a single mother with a demanding job, where I was responsible for her children—preparing meals, supervising them, and taking them to activities. It was a very rewarding experience, and now I’m excited to offer my help to new families. I’m dependable, caring, and good with kids of all ages. I can assist with playtime, meals, bedtime routines, and homework. I have my own car and can travel to nearby areas. I also hold a valid Pediatric First Aid certificate to ensure safety at all times. If you need a trustworthy babysitter who truly cares, I’d love to connect and learn about your family’s needs. Looking forward to hearing from you! — Gisela
