We were lucky to have Carolyn help watch our 7-month daughter on very short notice and she was a perfect sitter! A nice, friendly, calm presence and our baby took to her immediately. Despite late afternoons being a generally fussy time, somehow she was always in the best mood by the time Carol left! It's very clear Carol has a love and natural instinct for babies and we hope to have Carol around again. Highly recommend Carol as someone you can completely trust to care for your children.

My husband and I hired Naiana to be a nanny for our 4month old right as I was returning to work after Maternity Leave. It was an anxious time for me, but I felt so reassured with Naiana! She is wonderful with babies and Sophia immediately felt comfortable with her. She has aided in Sophia’s development through play, singing, sleep training and movement. In the early days she was so good at getting Sophia down for a nap and feeding her bottles when she would only take bottles from my husband and I. She also would wash bottles and fold the baby’s laundry while Sophia was napping, which was such an amazing help to me. Now that Sophia is 9months old, I can see the love that Sophia has for Naiana, as every morning Sophia has the biggest smile as soon as Naiana walks in the door! I strongly recommend hiring Naiana and I feel so lucky to have her as a part of Sophia’s life!

Sara has been such an amazing addition to our family over the last year. She has cared for our infant daughter who adores her. She helped us navigate our daughters changing needs, teething, sleep schedules, and more. She is incredibly proactive and jumps in to help out whenever needed which has been such a huge help. She has also been so flexible with all of the changes throughout the pandemic which made navigating the unique work and school changes much easier! We are so sad to no longer have her with us but we know she will be able to provide amazing care for another family!

Are you looking for an occasional sitter? A summertime sitter? I’m a full time art teacher during the school year. I’m seeking occasional sitting positions and summer time sitting positions. Perhaps you need a date night or just need an occasional night out. I have CPR, first aid and epi pen training. I have raised my son and also two step daughters who are now adults. I had been a lifeguard when I was 16, of course all that training is expired, but I feel that those life experiences stay with you. I look forward to hearing from you. I am vaccinated for Covid-19

We met Sandie at the beginning of the pandemic through Dumpling, which is a personal shopping app. She was our food shopping angel during Covid and 2 years later not only does she still shop for us, but we have her occasionally babysit our 4 year old who loves Sandie! Flexible, thorough, and just all around a nice person.

I’m so happy to write this review for Kissila. She took care of my two children for 3 years, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better nanny. Kissila is a lovely person and has something truly magical with kids. She is incredibly patient, dedicated, responsible, and caring. She is VERY organized and always on time, which made our busy family life run so much smoother. She consistently went above and beyond, always helping with the housekeeping as much as she could. Most importantly, she was amazing with the children - planning fun, creative activities every single week. Whether it was raining, snowing, freezing cold, or hot, she always had something special and engaging planned for them. My kids absolutely adored her! I’m confident that any family would be lucky to have Kissila. I truly and wholeheartedly recommend her.

Edit Hello Families, I am Allison, I grew up in Cambridge, I am 37 years young. I have 16 years' experience; I have a Montessori based teaching style. Childcare is a huge passion of mine. Helping cultivate children's development, growth, and building their interests is priority. Instilling confidence, self-awareness, and sense of safety and love are vital. I mold my teaching style to each family and child's needs to provide the best learning environment for them. Every child and family have different needs and goals which I work with as a unit, it takes a village right! I have experience with at home private care, as well as center-based care. I have worked a Bright Horizons for most of my center-based carrier, though the Rock and Roll Daycare was my favorite school to teach at which was music based. I love music, art, and culture. I love to play all kinds of music and read books with different cultures, growing an early understanding that it is a big world with so many different cultures and people is something to start off early with I believe.

Alli has been an absolute godsend to our family. When my husband and I moved to Concord at the tail end of the COVID pandemic, we were overwhelmed with the challenge of finding reliable childcare. I had just returned to work after maternity leave with our second child, and Alli was able to step in seamlessly from day one. It quickly became clear that Alli’s superpower is working with children. Our two-year-old son and three-month-old daughter connected with her immediately. She handled early challenges—like our daughter refusing bottles—with calm confidence and patience, all while navigating a full-time, work-from-home household. Remarkably, our daughter began taking bottles on Alli’s very first day. Over the past four years, Alli has truly become part of our family. She has supported our children through every stage of their development with thoughtfulness and care. From managing nap schedules (and sleep regressions) to guiding potty training, school pickups and drop-offs, and helping build early reading and math skills, Alli approaches every aspect of her role with intention. She consistently creates engaging, age-appropriate activities and makes it a priority to get the kids outside and active in all seasons. She is more than just a caretaker; she is a teacher and friend. What sets Alli apart most is her deep commitment to the children in her care. Our son has severe food allergies, and Alli has always been exceptionally diligent—carefully managing his meals and ensuring his EpiPen is always on hand. She is a fierce advocate for our children’s safety and well-being, and we have complete trust and peace of mind when they are with her. As our youngest begins school, we are sadly transitioning away from full-time care. We cannot recommend Alli highly enough—she brings warmth, reliability, and a rare level of dedication that will be deeply missed by our family.

Nourishing a child's free spirit is especially important to me. I like to support and teach where I can while also making sure to leave room for independence and exploration. Helping kids establish their autonomy and learn to set boundaries is important to me. I encourage a gentle and kind attitude toward the self and others. My goal is always to find a way to make every day memorable, and to connect with the kids I work with in a way that fosters genuine trust and love. It is an honor to get to be one of their grown ups and to watch them grow into who they are! I am excited to find a family that I can work with long-term and form genuine connections with!
