Hi! My name is Sara Coughlin and I am a full time college student from western mass! I am 21 years old and I graduated class of 2021 from my local high school, and am in university but am home for the summers. I have always been good with and genuinely loved being with kids, and have babysat and helped with kids of all ages since I was younger helping out in Child Watch at the YMCA. I have been certified for babysitting by the American Red Cross for years. I love kids as I have always had little cousins and work with kids a lot, I love animals, and helping people, and am very outgoing, caring, and adventurous, which is why babysitting is such a perfect fit for me for a part time job whenever I can! I have been a kids camp unit director and counselor in the summers and it is the best part of my summer days, I couldn’t this summer due to minor scheduling conflicts but will miss it so much this summer! I have experience and love working with any ages. I have experience with casual sitting, date nights, bedtime routines, wedding sitter/help, and much more and I love it all! Please reach out I’m happy to discuss and see if I can help in any way!

Maureen was absolutely wonderful with our 2-3 year old, reliable and consistent for a regular sitting position over several months. Our daughter LOVES her, and so do we. We would hire her again in a heartbeat.

Hi! I’m a caring and reliable nanny with over 5 years of paid experience working with children from infants to preschool age. I’ve spent years in childcare center, and I’m currently in school pursuing my degree in Early Childhood Development, so I love bringing both hands-on experience and what I’m learning into my work. I’m all about creating a warm, safe, and fun environment where kids can learn, play, and just be themselves. Whether it’s helping with routines, planning little activities, or just being a supportive, positive presence, I truly enjoy what I do and love building strong connections with the families I work with.❤️

We adore Kiara! She is kind, thoughtful and fun. My 10-year-old always has the best time with her and requests that I go out just so they can play :) I trust Kiara completely. She has taken time to get to know my son and his interests -- they play chess, battle with Anime figures and make up stories to act out. I would recommend Kiara 100 percent!
