I have a lot of experiencing starting from a young age with babysitting. I was a Sunday school teacher for Pre-k to 5th Grade and I was on the Christian Board of Education. I have helped many family friend's babysitting, pet sitting, and house sitting. I also used to work through a different agency. I have no problem doing house work or food prep. I’m an avid baker and chef. I have many years of work experience in the restaurant industry so I'm very well versed in Allergy Awareness, Food Safety, and I am CPR certified.

If you are looking for a great babysitter - hire Leslie. Her communication from the start made me feel confident in her abilities to take care of my son. She was happy to take the time to be introduced to my son before coming to babysit. When she arrived she was well prepared with games and creative activities. Needless to say my son had the best time and was disappointed when he woke up in the morning and she wasn’t still there!

Alex was super professional from our first conversation on. She made the process really easy and asked great questions that assured me she would keep our toddler safe. Alex did great with bedtime even though our daughter is still working on independent sleep and needed some support. We got cute pictures throughout the night, too!

I hold a degree in Child Development and Early Childhood Education and have extensive experience working with children. From 2009 to 2019, I taught preschool-aged children, fostering their growth and development through engaging activities and personalized care. In 2019 and 2021, I worked as a Head Camp Counselor at a Girl Scout Camp, where I planned and led programs to create a fun and enriching environment. In 2022, I was promoted to Program Manager at the camp, further expanding my leadership and organizational skills. Additionally, I have hands-on experience as a nanny for two children, ages 2 and 4, and babysat for a family with a toddler from 2022 until the end of January. My responsibilities include preparing simple meals, assisting with potty training, and keeping the child engaged through indoor and outdoor activities. During the spring I babysat a one year old a few times. This summer I have been babysitting a six and ten year old. I also babysat 20 month year old twins a few times recently. Working with children has always been my passion, and I am currently seeking a babysitting position a few days during the week with preschool or elementary-aged children. My goal is to provide a nurturing, safe, and stimulating environment for the children in my care.

Stephanie has come over a few times to help me with my 13mo old daughter while I work from home. Stephanie is incredibly sweet and polite and plays so well with her. I was truly impressed with how well my daughter took to her as she hasn't had many sitters at all, they played so well together while I worked and I appreciate her help so much. I would consider Stephanie very reliable.

My husband and I hired Naiana to be a nanny for our 4month old right as I was returning to work after Maternity Leave. It was an anxious time for me, but I felt so reassured with Naiana! She is wonderful with babies and Sophia immediately felt comfortable with her. She has aided in Sophia’s development through play, singing, sleep training and movement. In the early days she was so good at getting Sophia down for a nap and feeding her bottles when she would only take bottles from my husband and I. She also would wash bottles and fold the baby’s laundry while Sophia was napping, which was such an amazing help to me. Now that Sophia is 9months old, I can see the love that Sophia has for Naiana, as every morning Sophia has the biggest smile as soon as Naiana walks in the door! I strongly recommend hiring Naiana and I feel so lucky to have her as a part of Sophia’s life!

Edit Hello Families, I am Allison, I grew up in Cambridge, I am 37 years young. I have 14 years' experience; I have a Montessori based teaching style. Childcare is a huge passion of mine. Helping cultivate children's development, growth, and building their interests and personality is priority. Instilling confidence, self-awareness, and sense of safety and love are vital. I mold my teaching style to each family and child's needs to provide the best learning environment for them. Every child and family have different needs and goals which I work with as a unit, it takes a village right! I have experience with at home private care, as well as center-based care. I have worked a Bright Horizons for most of my center-based carrier, though the Rock and Roll Daycare was my favorite school to teach at which was music based. I love music, art, and culture. I love to play all kinds of music and read books with different cultures, growing an early understanding that it is a big world with so many different cultures and people is something to start off early with I believe.

Alli has been an absolute godsend to our family. When my husband and I moved to Concord at the tail end of the COVID pandemic, we were overwhelmed with the challenge of finding reliable childcare. I had just returned to work after maternity leave with our second child, and Alli was able to step in seamlessly from day one. It quickly became clear that Alli’s superpower is working with children. Our two-year-old son and three-month-old daughter connected with her immediately. She handled early challenges—like our daughter refusing bottles—with calm confidence and patience, all while navigating a full-time, work-from-home household. Remarkably, our daughter began taking bottles on Alli’s very first day. Over the past four years, Alli has truly become part of our family. She has supported our children through every stage of their development with thoughtfulness and care. From managing nap schedules (and sleep regressions) to guiding potty training, school pickups and drop-offs, and helping build early reading and math skills, Alli approaches every aspect of her role with intention. She consistently creates engaging, age-appropriate activities and makes it a priority to get the kids outside and active in all seasons. She is more than just a caretaker; she is a teacher and friend. What sets Alli apart most is her deep commitment to the children in her care. Our son has severe food allergies, and Alli has always been exceptionally diligent—carefully managing his meals and ensuring his EpiPen is always on hand. She is a fierce advocate for our children’s safety and well-being, and we have complete trust and peace of mind when they are with her. As our youngest begins school, we are sadly transitioning away from full-time care. We cannot recommend Alli highly enough—she brings warmth, reliability, and a rare level of dedication that will be deeply missed by our family.
