Hi, my name is Makayla I have been babysitting for 20 years now. I absolutely love it. I love going for walks doing arts and crafts, almost anything! I grew up raising my two youngest siblings and have babysat my entire life. It’s something I have always enjoyed.

Over the past seven years, I've gained extensive babysitting experience, caring for children ranging from infants to preteens. I've developed a keen understanding of each child's unique needs and preferences, ensuring a safe and nurturing environment. My responsibilities have included meal preparation, bedtime routines, and engaging in age-appropriate activities to foster creativity and learning. I prioritize open communication with parents to provide updates on the child's well-being and address any concerns promptly. My commitment to creating a positive and enjoyable experience for both the children and their families has been a cornerstone of my babysitting approach.

I love babysitting kids and pets because they're the best kind of company anyone can ask for. Kids are innocent, pure and can make you laugh with the things they do and the imagination they have. I currently work as a line Cook and a behavioral health professional. I work hard in the heat and stress of a kitchen while keeping a calm head. I also work with children and teenagers with neurodevelopmental disorders as a BHP, getting to know them and assisting them to achieve their life skills, and help manage behavior. I have many skills that I can bring to babysitting your kiddo! I like to get to learn about them first by observing or hearing about them from you parents or them, themselves! It gives me a chance to best understand how they tick, what they're limitations are and where I may notice some push back with chores, homework or such. I also can provide guidance to the older kids and teens with a path for independence, strong work ethic, cooking healthy foods and taking on leadership roles. And I know I didn't talk much about pets but I am very good with animals. I am stern but passionate about them. Big dogs do not scare me away so don't be afraid if you have a big dog! I'd love to chat more one on one to see what I can provide you and your family!

I am a 19-year-old Maine native with art skills and a willingness to collaborate. I am a student and enjoy learning new things. I love nature and reading books to kids, and helping them explore their environments. I’m also good with pets and have patience with both. I’ve had my license for two years now and have never received traffic violations or warnings. I graduated high school in honors and am now going to be attending southern new Hampshire university in the fall.

Hi, my name is Ali Machinski and I have been working with children since I was a child myself. I grew up in a daycare and my love for kids began there. I’ve been a nanny for a family of three, worked 5 years as a counselor, sub teacher, and many other tasks within that position as well as running an infant classroom. Infants personally have my heart and I am a college student who is on the nursing track to become a postpartum/labor and delivery nurse.

My entire life has been devoted to teaching and caring for children! I have over 25 years of experience in the field of education as well as caring for young children in a preschool setting. I also have experience supporting students with special needs. I recently retired from the Barrington, NH School District. In the next chapter of my life, I look forward to working part-time/per diem serving in various roles. In addition to childcare, I am available for pet-sitting, housesitting, tutoring and supporting students or adults in their community. I have experience in all of the above roles. I am just beginning to set up my profile and will include a background check and references in the near future. If you feel like I might be a good fit for your family, pet or home, please feel free to reach out and I would be glad to answer any of your questions.

Hi! My name is Sarah and I teach 3rd grade in Lawrence, MA. Prior to teaching 3rd, I was a "Pod Teacher" for 12 students in Amesbury, MA from 2020-2021, and a graduate student while working as a 1st grade teacher from 2019-2020. Before my teaching career, I was a nanny and I absolutely loved it! The last family that I nannied for I met in February 2017 before graduating with a bachelors degree in Spanish from Saint Michael's College. The mother and father had a 15 month old daughter and a son on the way. I began nannying for them full time (Monday-Friday 7am-6pm, sometimes weekends, sometimes traveling on vacations with them). When I began my journey to become a teacher and pursue a graduate degree at Merrimack College in 2019, they fully supported me. This family has become a 2nd family to me, and I to them. I'm hoping to find a new family to work with this summer (June-August) while I'm not teaching. I hope to hear from you soon!

Hello! My name is Savanna. I am a recent college graduate who is looking to give a helping hand to your family! I feel inspired by our coming generation and love working and playing with children in a compassionate, thoughtful way. I believe that children constantly teach us lessons as we teach them. My approach to childcare is based on giving mutual respect and compassion, both to each other, and to the world around them. My general guidelines, alongside instructions from the parents, are: "Are they safe? Are they happy?" My approach to childcare also includes the outdoors. In my experience, children flourish when outside! Constructive play, engagement with the outdoors, and encouraging curiosity are all incredibly important to not only myself, but to my childcare practices. I'm the oldest of 5, and I've spent much of my life caring for children. I have about a year and a half of experience in substitute teaching at both public and Waldorf inspired curriculums. Additionally, I have a year of paid nanny experience. I'm looking forward to hearing from you!
