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! My name is Caroline, and I am a painter, and currently, a barista living in Sunderland, MA. While I have worked a variety of jobs in different fields, I have always worked with kids in one way or another since I was 17, between summer camps, lots of babysitting, and the after-school program I spent the last two years working for. I am very passionate about the arts, outdoorsy adventures, and mindfulness activities such as yoga and journaling, and I love finding ways to share my interests with children!

Hi!! I am located in Stoneham and have been working as a babysitter for 7 years now. I have worked with all age ranges from infant to pre-teen! Most recently, I’ve been a part-time nanny for two toddler girls and a morning helper for a 1 year old. I love doing crafts and playing outside with the kids. I’m comfortable driving kids if need be. :) Please reach out with any questions!

Madelyn is SUCH a great sitter. Our daughter, who can be really shy and scared of strangers, opened up to her immediately. She was never distracted by something else during her time at our house and was always talking to our daughter and engaging her, even before she could really say words. She's such a gem and we're so sad to leave the area because we can't have her all the time. The playroom was always clean at the end of their time together and she did a great job of changing diapers at the appropriate times.

Essie is very down to earth and was a great nanny to our 2 year old for a brief time, and our daughter still feels connected to her.

I have young twin cousins that I often babysit and take care of, and I love spending time with them. Getting to know them and watch them grow into who they are today was one of the highlights of seeing them so often. In highschool I worked at Performance Pediatrics which is a clinic for kids seeking care in OT, ST, and PT. I am CPR and first aid certified through Starguard.

Hi there! My name is Ashley, and I am a 22-year-old undergraduate student. I have had plenty of experience working with kids, whether it was as a camp counselor or an as-needed babysitter for neighbors and friends. I also worked with kids for several years as a junior Taekwondo instructor. I am reliable and patient, and I am resourceful in challenging situations. I am also physically fit and enjoy getting active and involved with whatever the kids are doing, like going to parks, riding bikes, stomping around in puddles, or playing with action figures or dolls. I think being attentive as well as being involved is what helps foster trust between the kids and me, no matter how old they are (and it makes the job fun!). I also have skills in cooking, cleaning (and organizational skills), and basic first aid. I am CPR certified as of November (2024). I am available to take care of pets, too (I have plenty of my own at home!).
