Hi!! I’m Mariella, I’ve been babysitting on and off for about 10 years now! My first job was a daycare when I was 14 and I began taking jobs here and there ever since. I’m from Boston and graduated from UMass Boston in 2022. I’ve cared for children ages 1-15 throughout the years. I’m currently working towards my pilates teaching license. I value education, art activities and active play. I grew up playing several sports and and still live an active lifestyle.

I’m a warm, patient, and dependable caregiver with hands-on experience caring for infants and young children. I’ve supported families with everything from newborn routines and overnight care to energetic toddlers who love to stay busy. I’m very comfortable with feeding, naps, playtime, bedtime routines, and creating a calm, safe environment where children feel secure and happy. I’m especially mindful of following parents’ preferences and routines, and I understand how important consistency and trust are when it comes to childcare. I’m happy to help with light child-related tasks like bottles, baby food prep, and laundry to make parents’ days a little easier. Parents often describe me as nurturing, attentive, and easy to communicate with. I take pride in being reliable, present, and genuinely caring with every child I work with. I treat each family as if they were my own and aim to be the extra support parents can truly count on.
