Hi! My name is Sara Coughlin and I am a full time college student from western mass! I am 21 years old and I graduated class of 2021 from my local high school, and am in university but am home for the summers. I have always been good with and genuinely loved being with kids, and have babysat and helped with kids of all ages since I was younger helping out in Child Watch at the YMCA. I have been certified for babysitting by the American Red Cross for years. I love kids as I have always had little cousins and work with kids a lot, I love animals, and helping people, and am very outgoing, caring, and adventurous, which is why babysitting is such a perfect fit for me for a part time job whenever I can! I have been a kids camp unit director and counselor in the summers and it is the best part of my summer days, I couldn’t this summer due to minor scheduling conflicts but will miss it so much this summer! I have experience and love working with any ages. I have experience with casual sitting, date nights, bedtime routines, wedding sitter/help, and much more and I love it all! Please reach out I’m happy to discuss and see if I can help in any way!

Stella G., Child Care in Palmer, MA 01069 with 5 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Stella and I’m a senior at Mount Holyoke majoring in Psychology and Education, about to graduate with Massachusetts Early Childhood Educator licensure. For the past two years, I served as a student and substitute teacher at Hadley Elementary School, where I developed bilingual Spanish/English lessons for a second-grader learning foundational English skills. Additionally, I have served as an Enrichment Teacher within the LAUSD, leading science, art, and physical education classes for children ages 4-11. In every role I step into, I facilitate play-based learning with creativity and warmth. I holistically enrich and celebrate students of all backgrounds and identities. This summer, I’m seeking a flexible childcare position before I dive into full-time teaching. Please do not hesitate to reach out for more information about my qualifications. I look forward to the prospect of working with your family ☺️ Warmly, Stella Genis

Eileen F., Child Care in Palmer, MA 01069 with 2 years of paid experience

In my time being a babysitter, my favorite part has become the relationships I build with kids and their families. While being reliable, safe, and organized, I ensure kids feel comfortable and content with me as their sitter. I adore all animals and anything involving the outdoors. If you are looking for a funloving sitter, you’ve found her!

Amaya R., Child Care in Palmer, MA 01069 with 0 years of paid experience

Hi! I’m Amaya, a caring and reliable nanny with a strong passion for childcare. I’m a college student and CPR/BLS certified, with five years of hands-on experience helping raise my nephew from infancy through early childhood. That time gave me a deep understanding of how to meet children’s needs with patience, love, and consistency. While I haven’t worked in a paid childcare role yet, I’ve taken on all the responsibilities of a full-time caregiver—feeding, diapering, playtime, school routines, and more. I love engaging kids in creative and educational activities, and I’m always focused on keeping them safe and happy. I’m also First Aid certified and have completed Advanced Child Care Training, which has given me added skills in safety, emergency response, and age-appropriate care. As a student, I bring a strong sense of responsibility and time management to everything I do. I’m also flexible with scheduling, respectful of household routines, and happy to help with light chores, meals, or homework support. I’d love the opportunity to be a trusted part of your family’s support system!

Robin B., Child Care in Palmer, MA 01069 with 20 years of paid experience

 Hi there! I live in Bristol, RI and have been a nanny for about 18 years. I have a background in Early Childhood Education and love working with kids of all ages. I have been taking care of children since before I entered high school. I work well with families, and believe it is important to understand their parenting styles, so that children will have consistency. I grew up in a house where my mom was always willing to help out people, and I am the same way. Through the past several years, I have worked with adults with mental illness, adolescent girls within the DSS system, and young children. I have worked with multiples (triplets), children with autism, and an infant with down syndrome. I believe, that everything that happens to a child in their young life affects who they become as adults. There needs to be nurturing, fun, limits, and consistency. Thank you for taking the time to read about me. :)

A little about myself, I am a 36 year old mother of 2 with extensive experience child care. I am the oldest out of 4 siblings and have CPR and First Aid certifications, althoughi do believe they are currently expired. I have attended Northern Virginia Community College in pursuit of a degree in Child Education and have a CDA, so I do have knowledge on learning skills, behavior and so on with young children. I am a fun, energetic, down-to-earth, warm and a kind-hearted person who is also capable of enforcing rules and boundaries with children. I love any outdoor activities. I am a strong believer in outdoor fun because my entire childhood was spent outside playing. I am very involved in my church and activities within the church such as Bible School, Sunday pre-school, day-care and community services. I am currently providing care for one child in my home. I live in Chicopee Massachusetts near the westover air reserve base. I do have 2 very friendly dogs and 3 cats, but have the ability to keep them separated from the children in my care. If you have any questions at all, feel free to email me through Sittercity and I will respond quickly. My account is linked to my cell phone and I receive message alerts instantly.
