Momina S., Babysitter in Russell, MA 01071 with 5 years of paid experience

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.

Momina is excellent with children! She works with my special needs child and is so responsive and kind. She asks questions and my child seems very relaxed and able to be herself with Momina. That reduced stress is a big help!

Hello, I'm a career nanny of 16 years with children of different age developments. I'm a Mom to a 4-year-old and a 2-year-old girl. I have taken care of multiples starting from infant age up to 7 years of age.

Lindsey nannied for our two boys, then 6 months and 2.5 years. She started with us following my return from maternity leave and in a very difficult post-pandemic era, during which my 2.5 year old struggled with transitions. She handled many a tantrum with grace and patience, with a smile on her face, and helped us navigate potty-training. She is flexible and accommodating, and leaves the house sparkling clean. She goes above and beyond - including by spending her free time researching behavioral development guidance for toddlers and ways to get picky eaters to ingest more calories. We are really going to miss her and her sweet baby boy. She is a true professional and any family would be lucky to have her!

Leanora K., Babysitter in Russell, MA 01071 with 10 years of paid experience

As a passionate childcare provider with 10 years of experience, I am dedicated to nurturing and educating children. My journey began with fulfilling babysitting roles, where I discovered my natural ability to connect with children and positively impact their lives and mine. I have also worked in daycare, school, and nanny roles. Supporting families and providing reliable childcare became my mission. My patient and calm nature allows me to handle any situation with composure, while my creativity and imagination make learning and play fun and engaging. I believe in open and honest communication with parents, providing a partnership to address anything. Ensuring a safe and structured environment for the children in my care while still having fun is a passion of mine. From outdoor adventures to educational games, I enjoy a variety of activities that encourage physical, mental, and emotional development. I am moving from Mass to Utah in late June early July. I’m moving out there with my fiancé because he is in the airforce. We will be living out there for about a year and then relocating back to MA. During that year I am looking for full time or two part time jobs in child care. I am teacher, CPR and First aid certified. I’m currently in nursing school in MA at Westfield State, while taking classes I have been doing lots of child care in people homes on the side. Prior to being in school I was a daycare teacher and have cared for newborns up to children 12 years old. Let me know if I sound like I could be a good fit for your family or if you have any question! Thank you

Alaney G., Babysitter in Russell, MA 01071 with 5 years of paid experience

Hi, my name is Alaney, and I’m a dedicated and caring babysitter with strong experience in childcare and personal care. I currently study Economics at Worcester State University, and I’ve built valuable skills through both my work and education. I’ve worked at the Southwick Recreational Center Daycare, where I supported children in early learning, structured play, and maintaining a safe, clean environment. I also have experience as a PCA worker for a low-functioning autistic individual, which has taught me patience, adaptability, and how to provide specialized care with compassion. I also work at Home base behavioral center where I mentor kids and teens with autism and other behavioral issues. I have Aba training. In addition, I’m CPR and First Aid certified, trained through Tempus and ECC Essentials, and I always prioritize safety and wellbeing. I have many strong references who can speak to my reliability, trustworthiness, and ability to connect with children. As a babysitter, I bring not only hands-on experience but also a genuine love for working with kids. I’m responsible, organized, and able to balance fun with structure making sure children are engaged, happy, and safe while under my care.

Chelsea D., Babysitter in Russell, MA 01071 with 15 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Chelsea Daly, I’m messaging you about the nanny position you posted about. I started babysitting fifteen years ago, I took a few part-time jobs early in my professional nanny career until I transitioned to full-time. At this time I have been a full-time nanny consistently for the past ten years, in which I have been lucky enough to have mostly long-term positions. I recently parted ways with a family I had been with for five years and started working with a family a few months ago. I am thinking about parting ways as I feel it may just not be a good fit so I’m seeking other options. I started working with my last long-term family when the now 5 year old was 7 months old, I have watched their almost 4 year old since the day she came home from the hospital as well as their twins that arrived in January! I mostly have experience caring for infants and toddlers, but I have worked with various age groups since I began working in childcare. I plan activities and outings for the babies/kids during the week such as going to the park, museums and zoos, the beach, story times at the library and much more! I have a reliable vehicle and I can provide multiple recommendation letters and references. If you think I might be a good fit, I’d like to talk more about the position! Hope to hear from you!

Hi, I'm Heather! I've always had a passion for nurturing children's growth and development, which led me to become a caregiver.
