When my children were in elementary school I provided before and after school daycare in my home. I ended my daycare when my sons went to high school. I worked at a Post Office for 8 years and as a pharmacy technician for over 10 years. I have 5 grandchildren 7 months, 2, 4,5 and 6 years I am a very active grandmother. I previously worked as a nanny for a family in Marlborough, where I took care of a 2 year old and 5 year. I was with this family for over 3 years. My days with the children were always busy, and extremely fun. I planned activities for each day. We did arts and crafts projects, play board games, took nature walks, played outdoor games, and somedays read books and sing and dance. Many times I drove the children to and from school and to libraries for storytime, I am looking for about 8 hrs a week. I am retired and available for pickup or dropoff or morning care My goal each day is to provides safety and happiness and be a role model and a teacher. Safety is my number one priority.

Love kids! Just call me "Mary Poppins" I sing & can cajole them into taking a spoonful of medicine. As a musician & singer, fun thru song, music, games & crafts, is right up my alley. I have been a preschool teacher and director of an infant to preschool daycare. I have cared for all ages, birth to 5 being my specialty! I thrive on the happy moments when a child learns something new and the snuggles and giggles of happy children. I thoroughly enjoy meeting new families & seamlessly coordinating care so the children have a stress free transition from parent to caregiver. I am infant- adult CPR certified, epipen, first aid & medication administration trained. References available upon request.

Hi! My name is Danielle. I currently work remotely as a marketing manager, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability for a babysitting position to support my income. Because I work from home, I’m able to be fully present and attentive while caring for children. I’ve grown up babysitting and have always been the go-to person for watching my three younger cousins, who are now 7, 10, and 13. I’m patient, responsible, and genuinely enjoy spending time with kids of all ages. Depending on your needs, I’m happy to discuss schedules and future sitting hours. I look forward to meeting your family and hopefully working together!
