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!

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.

Abigail helped my family between January and May of 2025. She was amazing with my kids and they naturally bonded with her. She helped tutor each child based on their needs in English and Math (1st grader, 3rd grader, and 5th grader), and was a wonderful influence on them and their behavior. She helped with errands when needed such as groceries, Dr appointments, and even did some light cleaning. She helped ensure my kids did their homework when they got home and their chores as needed. She provided sufficient communication on her availability, confirmed pickup logistics each week, and was very dependable and on time. She was a delight to work with, hope she will return to help the family out in the future, and you would be lucky to have her as a sitter.

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.

We had a great experience with Julia with our 10 month old daughter. We used Julia while we were visiting from out of town. We spoke on the phone and I spoke with a reference that had good experience as well. Julia was on time, very friendly and personable and a good communicator. I’d use Julia again if I were from the area.

Hi! My name is Ava, and I have 8 years of childcare experience caring for children of all ages. I’m comfortable supervising multiple children at once, so playdates and busy days are never an issue. I enjoy cooking, light housekeeping, and helping keep the home clean and organized for families. I love keeping kids active through playground trips, games, crafts, and fun activities while limiting screen time when possible. I encourage independence while always prioritizing safety and happiness. I also worked at the Essex County Sheriff’s Department as a youth counselor, where I supervised children, organized activities, and provided support when needed. I’m CPR and First Responder certified and have experience working with children with special needs, including ADHD, Down syndrome, and physical disabilities. I truly love working with children and would be honored to meet your family!

Hi, I’m Paul. I bring over 25 years of professional experience working with children, teens, and families, including roles as a YMCA Camp Director, YMCA Teen Director, and more than 20 years in the residential Student Life program at Landmark High School. In that role, I have consistently met CORI/SORI background check requirements, most recently as of last year. Now that my 3 daughters are grown, I am able to help with children from ages 3–15, and have a dependable car to transport children to and from school and to activities. My approach is centered on helping each child explore their interests, and to have new experiences. Care can be home-based or include local outings and cultural activities to make our time together fun and meaningful.
