Sittercity helps Wayland families find the best babysitters

Hello there, I am an experienced and educated childcare provider who has over 14 years of hands-on experience and a genuine love of children and their development. I have worked with children from birth through 17 years of age in various roles, but primarily in-home - providing support to the family unit and focusing on developmental support. I am college educated in Early Education, with a minor in special education that allows me the knowledge and experience to provide added support in the reaching of milestones and/or special challenges if they arise or become an area of concern. I have experience working with Early Intervention and can assist with Speech or Occupational concerns as well as ABA and sensory seeking behavioral supports with or without guidance. I hold current CPR and First Aid certifications, as well as various allergy training certifications and a complex pediatric Diabetes training completion through the Joslin center in Boston. A clean background check, clear driving record and reputable references are available upon request. With my childcare services you can expect my willingness to commit to household management as well as pet care and to provide the absolute best and thorough attention to your bundles of joy as if they were my own. If you are looking to add a member to your childcare village, please reach out and we can set up a time to connect. Looking forward to hearing from you! Best, Britni

Hi I'm Lindy Soto, I'm a native Spanish speaker but I'm learning English. I have experience in taking care of 4 and 5 year old children for 6 months but I was also an assistant with the care of children from 0 to 6 years old. I really enjoy spending time with the children, helping them with their homework and watching them and accompanying them in their learning activities.

Hi! My name is Lauren and I hail from a background in school safety and emergency preparedness. 🎒Let me tell you why I would be a great match for your kid/s. I have a wide array of interests from design and art, any outdoor recreation, cooking, history, fiction fanatic, and technology. My sense of humor makes kids comfortable, and my wild imagination keeps them entertained. 🪁I connect intuitively with children, and aim to strike a balance between physical and mental activity, while identifying cues for downtime. I am immensely goofy, creative, an avid reader, TV-averse, a champion of silly stories, and can make yummy balanced meals! 👩‍🚒 Most recently, I am a seasonal wildland firefighter for the federal government. This summer I am taking a break after several intense years, and recalibrating while staying at my parents house in Needham. 🚙 I have a clean, well-maintained 2010 Honda Odyssey with a clean driving record, and I am a confident city driver, even with a car full of energetic kids! I have passed several driving exams and driving courses for work. Additional relevant background: 🦺 ⛑️Pre-Firefighting I was a crisis response specialist for schools of all sizes, guiding them through any type of emergency or disaster alongside first responders. I have been a CPR/First Aid/Search and Rescue instructor for educators, and I regularly receive training and volunteer for Red Cross and FEMA. As a post-grad I worked as an EMT in the Middle East. 👨‍👩‍👦‍👦Pre-Covid, I spent several years nannying long-term between two families, one of which has a child with severe mental and physical disabilities, and this is where I learned to care for a child, rather than just babysit. I have also been babysitting or a camp counselor since age 12. Looking forward to meeting a great family!

I’ve had a passion for caring for kids for as long as I can remember. Even as a child, I loved helping care for younger kids at church, in my family, or anywhere I had the chance. I have experience as a babysitter, substitute teacher, and Residential Advisor, which has helped me develop strong communication skills, conflict resolution strategies, and the ability to create safe, structured environments where kids can thrive. I’m comfortable caring for up to two children of all ages. Whether it’s leading fun, engaging activities, helping with meals and nap time, or just being a dependable presence, I’m ready to support your family in whatever way I can. I’ve worked with kids from a wide range of backgrounds and personalities, and I love building connections with each of them. I’m excited to create a fun and safe space while gaining more experience and meeting your family’s needs.

Hi! My name is Alynah, and I’m a 4th-year medical student. I recently moved to Boston to work at Harvard/BIDMC on a research fellowship prior to graduating with my MD. I am well-trained to handle various situations and am certified in BLS, CPR, and First Aid. As the oldest of four children and 26 grandchildren, I have spent much of my life watching, feeding, cleaning up after, playing with, and teaching kids of all ages. I was employed for one year in high school, caring for a 4-year-old and a 13-month-old toddler. Since then, I have held several jobs, including working with children of all ages, and volunteering at daycares in my free time during my undergraduate studies. Additionally, during undergrad, I spent two years working with individuals with disabilities on college-level coursework, job applications, and social activities. I genuinely enjoy spending time with young people from all backgrounds. Being away from home makes me miss connecting with children, so hanging out with your kiddos in my free time would help Boston feel more like home. I have a car and am willing to drop off and pick up kids from extracurricular activities, help with homework, cook meals, run small errands, and more, as long as the tasks are clearly defined and agreed upon beforehand. I look forward to meeting you and your kiddos! Thank you for considering my application!
