Hi, I love caring for infants and toddlers. I also have experience working with preschool and school age children. I have worked in family daycare, daycare centers, Head Start and in private homes. I have an Infant Toddler Certificate, a Special Needs Certificate, an A.S. degree in Early Childhood Education a B.A. in Sociology and Anthropology and some graduate school course work in Social Work. I have been trained in CPR and first aid. I have years of experience working in Human Services and caring for adults also. I have experience working with both adults and children with special needs.I love animals, am a nonsmoker and have a clean driving record with a reliable car. I'm seeking a part-time position and can provide excellent references upon request. See my 5 star reviews. Although I clean up the kitchen after meals and toys after play, my focus is childcare and I do not provide housekeeping, laundry or errands. I am also equipped to provide childcare in my home and live in a safe, quiet neighborhood. I have toys, books, a comfortable play space, a quiet nap space, music, movies, etc. I can also provide snacks, diaper changes and potty training. See my 5 star reviews. Thank you. I hope to hear from you soon!

I've worked in childcare since sophomore year of high-school doing after school programs and babysitting. I am CPR certified and have plenty of experience with children from infant to middle school, as well as children with autism and other neurodiversities. I firmly believe in patience, calm voices, and creative solutions when working with children. I like to meet kids where they're at and form trust between us so we can get along well and respect one another. Currently, I am 25 and looking to work with younger children of smaller families as I am dealing with difficulty working due to Ehlers Danlos and other disabilities. I can hold babies, change diapers, make bottles and cook, play, and put kids down for nap, but struggle with lots of running and very active play due to my physical limitations, as well as long hours or several work days back to back. I am also trans and would like to work with welcoming and accepting families of the lgbt community.

I have a Bachelor's Degree in Special Education Moderate Disabilities K-8, teaching certificates in Massachusetts and Washington state, and certifications in Crisis Prevention & Intervention and Adult/Child/Baby First Aid/CPR/AED. I am a compassionate, responsible, and energetic nanny with a genuine love for working with children. With 10 years of experience in childcare—ranging from full-time nannying to teaching in special education elementary schools and middle schools—I have cared for children of various ages, from toddlers to pre-teens. I have a strong history of dependability and reliability. As a warm, patient, and creative nanny, I am able to form strong and trusting bonds with children.

Hi there! My name is Molly and I am a 23 year old living in Allston. I currently work as a paralegal at a law firm but am hoping to change that! I have done child care for seven years, including a live in nanny position for two summers. I have definitely missed being in child care and would like to get back into as soon as possible. I absolutely adore children and would love the opportunity to spend time with yours playing and learning ( in a covid safe way, of course.) I am half-way vaccinated for COVID-19, my second vaccination will be next week! Please let me know if you have any questions for me, and please feel free to reach out anytime! :)

I have my undergraduate degree in Psychology, Gender Studies, and Public Health from Connecticut College. I received my Masters in Social Work with a focus in children, youth, and families from Boston College in May 2024. At BC, I interned at Watertown’s Boys and Girls Club working with elementary to high school kids and Bradley Hospital in East Providence, RI. I was most recently a clinician-clinical social worker on Bradley Hospitals Adolescent Inpatient Psychiatry Unit. I have worked 3 summers as a lifeguard and camp counselor at Hampton Country Day Camp in East Hampton, New York, where I worked with children ages 2.5-12 years old. I have worked as a nanny/babysitter for families in Stonington, CT, Sharon, MA, the Hamptons, and Manhattan, NYC. My interest of working with kids was solidified through these experiences, and I look forward to working with more in the future! I am currently a school counselor in Beverly and have availability after 3:30pm weekdays and on weekends. :-)
