Hello! My name is Abigail and I have a heart for children. I am cpr and first aid certified. I have experience with infants-elementary school age children, having worked in various preschools. I have nanny experience working with infant twins and a five year old as a Mothers Helper. My other experiences with children come from babysitting, working as a preschool TA, and helping raise my wonderful 4 younger siblings. I love to clean, nurture, teach and be where I am needed. I currently am a college student and am looking for a babysitting/nanny job in the afternoons/evenings.

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. I enjoy engaging activities such as crafts, reading, outdoor play, and age-appropriate learning games, and am open to taking children on excursions in the community if desired.

Hi! I’m Marie. I am a Mom, and recently and grandmother! I have been a certified postpartum doula since 2021 and a professional nanny/child care since 2020. My heart and soul are happiest when I’m caring for children! I was and esthetician/nail tech / instructor and salon owner for over 30 years until I completely changed careers in 2020 to exclusively care for infants and children. I currently work for Boston Area Doulas and you can read my reviews and bio on their website!

As a mom of two grown sons, I understand child development deeply and know how to create a safe, structured, and nurturing environment. I bring 21 years of hands-on experience across every stage and age: from infant care and nap routines, to activities, homework, busy, family, schedules, and keeping a household running smoothly (and more). I have a perfect/clean driving record, and am CPR and Stop the Bleed certified. I’m a dependable, organized, and warm caregiver who leads with empathy and authentic engagement. I also love all pets and have had them my whole life. I am very flexible with scheduling, and happy to assist with household tasks. I enjoy being helpful and making things easier for busy families!

Hi! My name is Marcus Montagnino, and I’m a responsible, patient, and easy-going person with a strong background in working with kids across a variety of settings—from summer camps to athletic training to regular babysitting. I’m 23 years old and currently a student-athlete on the men’s basketball team at Endicott College, where I’m pursuing my Master’s in Sport Leadership. Before that, I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Sport Management from Xavier University. I’m now looking for a reliable and flexible part-time babysitting job that allows me to continue doing something I love—helping kids grow, stay active, and enjoy learning new things. I’ve gained hands-on experience with children through several meaningful roles. At the Gloucester YMCA, I worked as a Summer Sports Camp Counselor, leading groups of 15–25 children in games, sports, and team-building activities. I made sure every child felt safe, included, and confident while keeping the environment fun and positive. I worked with kids of all ages and feel very comfortable adapting to different needs and personalities. More recently, I’ve been a Basketball Trainer for Elevate Academy, where I’ve coached athletes ranging from middle schoolers to college players. Alongside that, I’ve also spent plenty of time babysitting for family members, which has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and being a dependable presence. I’d love the opportunity to bring my energy, experience, and care to your family. I pride myself on being someone kids enjoy spending time with and parents can count on, and I feel like I have always done a good job with this. My experiences working with children in a variety of contexts, such as camps, sports programs, and team environments, have given me what I believe to be great communication abilities. I understand how to listen to children's needs, speak to them in a straightforward and encouraging manner, and keep lines of communication open with parents to make sure everyone is informed and at ease. My goal is always to create a safe, fun, and positive environment. If you have any questions or would like to know more about me, I’d be happy to answer and share how I can help in any way.

I have 9 years of childcare experience. I have had children ranging from 6 months to 10 years old. I excel in household management as well as caring for your young ones.

My name is Ava, I’m from Gloucester. I am looking for a family to assist starting in May. I’m training for police academy and need a full time job before I enter (hopefully in a few months to a year). I have around 8 years of child care experience. I have cared for infants up to 14 year olds. I have watched 1-4+ kids at a time, so play dates are not an issue. I enjoy cooking and housekeeping, making sure the home is cleaner/more organized for the family when they come home. I take children to playgrounds and other fun places for physical activity while making time for games, leaving the electronics to a minimum, unless the yucky weather calls for a good movie. I encourage independence while keeping the kids safe and happy. I also worked at Essex County Sheriff’s Department as a youth counselor. For this position I supervised children, provided assistance when needed, played games with them, arts and crafts and offered counseling and support. I also taught classes on the effects of drug and alcohol abuse, bullying prevention, stranger danger and much more. I have a soft spot for kids and making their days a little better (parents too) is something I take pride in. I’m CPR and first responder certified, and have experience with children with special needs of all types; Down syndrome, adhd, physical disabilities, and more. I am a full time college student but I chose all online classes to create time for work. If you are interested and we can discuss a schedule that works for everyone, I would be honored to meet you!
