Gisela  C., Babysitter in Wakefield, MA 01880 with 3 years of paid experience

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 MIT 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

Valerie S., Babysitter in Wakefield, MA 01880 with 6 years of paid experience

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.
