We couldn’t have asked for a better nanny than Melissa. She was incredibly nurturing, reliable, and always went above and beyond for our daughter. Her kindness was invaluable, and our daughter absolutely adored her. Having Melissa’s daughter around was an added joy; she was delightful and well-behaved who became a wonderful playmate. I highly recommend her to any family in need of a caring and trustworthy nanny.

Hello! I’m Madigan, and I'm a recent graduate from Mount Holyoke College, with a degree in biology and studio art. I have nine years of hands-on childcare experience and have worked with children of all ages in a variety of settings. My experience includes nannying two toddlers for the past two years, leading full-day marine education programs for children ages 8-12, working at an overnight YMCA summer camp with campers ages 7-14, and working as a live-in supervisor for a college-prep summer program for high school students. I also spent three years working with a children’s theater program, where I learned tons of creative games, activities, and ways to keep kids engaged. As an aspiring educator, I have tons of engaging activities up my sleeve, and I’m always ready to get creative! I am CPR and First Aid certified for both infants and adults. I am confident supervising children of any age, keeping them entertained, and maintaining a clean environment. I’m responsible, detail-oriented, and comfortable working independently to ensure your kids are safe, engaged, and having fun! I’m also great with pets, a licensed and responsible driver, and have housekeeping experience as well. I look forward to connecting with families!

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.

We hired Dolma as the nanny for our 2.5 year old twin daughters and she cared for them during the work days for a 4 month period. She was extremely punctual, consistently coming in about 10 mins earlier than the actual start time. It was very clear that she was full of love for the twins and genuinely cared for them. Her cooking/feeding strategy worked really well with both our daughters. She also kept to our set routine which helped a lot. Most importantly, the twins really bonded with her loved having her. I recommend Dolma to anyone looking for a nanny.

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.

I have always enjoyed caring for children and have babysat my friends children to help give them some much needed time to themselves. Through these experiences, I discovered how much I enjoy working with children and creating a safe, fun, and positive environment for them. I have now decided to turn my experience and passion for childcare into a babysitting career.
