Find experienced child care providers in Athol, MA

Hi there! My name is Sara! I am 23 years old and I am working towards becoming a parent educator. I love working with children and learning more about how they develop. I love learning about gentle parenting and Montessori teaching methods. I’d love to help you or your family in caring for your little one(s). I’d be more than happy to share more about my past babysitting and nannying experience as well.

I truly value the opportunity to enrich the lives of young children and help them learn and grow. I have a degree in Early Childhood Education, and 25 years of experience caring for children from infants to teenagers, including babysitting, being a nanny/household manager, teaching preschool, teaching gymnastics, and coaching cheerleading. I also have my own small business (Braids and Butterflies Spa Parties), hosting spa parties for girls ages 4 to 12. I have been working with children my entire adult life, and couldn't see myself doing anything else. Finding the "right fit" is very important to me, as I believe that communication is key and things go much more smoothly when everyone is on the same page. Being a nanny is more than a job to me; I form lasting relationships with the families that I care for, and I take pride in becoming an extension of family to the children in my care. I'm a trustworthy, organized, capable self-starter, and I enjoy being out and about with children, doing fun activities or even everyday errands. I'm also a proud mom to a wonderful almost 5 yr old girl, who would be joining me. Kelsey is sweet, easy-going, and is used to working with me. She is very helpful and loves making friends! I like to keep busy and I'm open to doing other household tasks such as laundry, organizing, grocery shopping/errands. I drive a minivan and have a safe driving record, and excellent references! Ideally I am looking for 10-20 hours per week, but can be flexible and I am open to working with more than one family. Also interested in occasional babysitting. Thanks for reading, and hope to hear from you soon!

Taking care of children has been such a joy in my life! It lets me look at the world with fresh eyes and do work that feels most natural to me- which is typically in caretaking roles. I aim to bring a sense of calm and safety to any child I look after and hope to work in environments that value that too.

Nurturing young minds is my passion. For the past two years, I've dedicated myself to providing attentive and engaging care to children. I am patient, creative, and friendly, and I strive to create a positive impact on each child's life while offering reliable support to families. My background includes some college, Early Childhood Education (ECE) coursework, and I hold certifications in First Aid Training and CPR Training. I am very comfortable enforcing household rules and happy to communicate with you using your preferred method, including verbal updates and text messages. I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, and educational games. I am comfortable caring for one to three children at a time. I'm also happy to assist with cooking, carpooling, light housekeeping, travel, and swimming supervision. Knowing I can make a difference in a child's day brings me immense joy, and I look forward to the opportunity to connect with your family.

Hi! I’m a responsible and caring 19-year-old high school graduate with a strong passion for childcare and development.

I’ve also spent lots of time caring for my 5-year-old nephew, so I’m comfortable with daily routines, playtime, helping with meals, and keeping kids entertained in fun and creative ways. Safety is very important to me, and I am CPR certified. I’m patient, dependable, and love helping kids learn, grow, and have fun. I look forward to meeting you and your family!
