A little bit about me… I've been babysitting since i was a child. I use to be a daycare teacher and helped my mom in her home daycare. I have worked in 3 different daycares as a preschool teacher. One was an at home daycare. I now have a 6-year old. She comes with me all the time and is a great help and loves meeting new children. It makes it easier, as I homeschool her. I have plenty of references that I can furnish. Different from the ones, already in here. I also study Health and Nutrition and we are Vegan. Thank you. Look forward to connecting with great families!

Sandra was a huge help watching 2 of our 3 toddlers for three days straight, while we moved into our new home! Sandra was punctual each day, had great communication texting and calling with updates and photos, and did so many fun and creative outings and adventures with the kids, including long walks, coffee shops, bookstore, library and ice cream. We will definitely be utilizing Sandra’s services in the future and strongly recommend that you do too!

Hello! I'm an educator based in Dartmouth with extensive experience working with infants to school-age children. I’ve been babysitting since I was 12 and have spent every summer in camps or daycares, making this my full-time passion. I truly love being around children; they bring me so much joy. As a big sister to four, I enjoy being a supportive and caring figure in their lives. I'm dedicated to providing your child with the best care possible and am grateful for the opportunity to make a positive impact.

Hi, I’m Michele. I live in Mattapoisett, MA. I have two grandchildren and am lucky enough to be a very “hands on” kind of grandmother as I live in an in-law space next to daughter and her family. I have been a nanny for children as young as birth and as old as middle school. My goal as a Nanny is to care for, guide, instruct, protect, and teach children. I am willing to do light housekeeping including helping children maintain their rooms, clean play area, and laundry. If I had to describe myself in five adjectives I would say that I am caring, loving, committed, responsible and diligent. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, and even dance lessons. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, do laundry and run errands such as food shopping, dry cleaning and pharmacy runs etc. as I love to be busy! I also love pets and am willing to take care of them as well with vet appointments, grooming, etc. I am a fun-loving and creative person that loves to make life-long memories with children. I simply love children and enjoy helping them learn and grow at every stage of their young lives. I strive to create an atmosphere at home where your child is safe, happy and engaged in meaningful activities. I’m passionate about developing strong relationships with both parents and children. My strengths as a nanny are that I am very responsible, reliable and caring person. I am passionate about furthering my time in the Nanny field so that I can continue doing what I love and broadening my experiences. I am kind, patient and nurturing and I am excited about the opportunity to join your family!

Hi! My name is Julia and I am from Dartmouth, MA. I am a Registered Nurse, currently in Nurse Practitioner school - with the hopes to be a pediatric NP. I began my nursing career in the ICU and have recently transitioned to a pediatric unit. Now that I am back in school, the 12-hour hospital shifts are proving to be difficult to balance! I am BLS, ALCS (advanced life support), and PALS (pediatric advanced life support) certified. I am looking for a rather consistent nannying role and am available on weekdays, except for Thursdays. I have loved working as a pediatric nurse - constantly finding ways to be creative and make the "hard things" more fun. I love to spend time outside, arts and crafts, and am very active myself. I recently adopted a goldendoodle and am loving "dog mom" life.

For the past two years, I worked as a full-time nanny, providing individualized care, supporting developmental milestones, and helping families manage their day-to-day routines. I recently transitioned into my current role as an Educational Advisor with Seven Hills Behavioral Health, where I work within the New Bedford Public Schools supporting students and their educational goals.

I am reliable, patient, energetic, and passionate about working with children. At this time, I am available for occasional babysitting, including date nights, weekends, and other as-needed care.
