Michaela L., Nanny in Acton, MA 01720 with 14 years of paid experience

Hello, My name is Michaela. I am a Mom with 14 years of childcare experience and 7 years into Motherhood. I am someone that is punctual, transparent, prioritizes safety, maximizes fun, and always with reliable transportation. I take pride in creating an environment filled with learning, laughter, and warmth whether that is within my home or yours. As a nanny and a Mom, I enjoy exploring the outdoors or new local parks, encouraging imaginative play, and engaging children through educative play, games or Montessori style activities. I am comfortable with pets (love them actually), a non-smoker, and CPR certified. A little background; I started babysitting at 14yrs old and by 18 I became a full time nanny. Over the years I have been a long term nanny/sitter for multiple different families as well as providing sick care or urgent back up care. My experience ranges from caring for 1-6 children at a time with ages ranging from newborn infant to twelve years old. I also have twin experience! I am a twin Mom myself and I have worked for families with twins. When not working in childcare, I can be found supporting women through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum as a doula and childbirth educator. If you feel I am the right nanny of your family and would like to chat more, please reach out. I look forward to speaking with you!

Mary S., Nanny in Acton, MA 01720 with 12 years of paid experience

I really enjoy kids! They are naturally authentic and interested in the world. I studied Math and Education in college, and got teaching experience in classrooms ranging from kindergarten to high school. I got certified to teach secondary math, and went on to do a year of Americorps service after college. I moved to Boston in 2007 and began babysitting until I figured out what was next. I enjoyed what I was doing so much that I went on to become a full time nanny the following year. I worked for three years for a family with three children- ages 2, 5, and 7 when I started. After the youngest was off to kindergarten, I took a new position, a nanny share caring for two 2-year old girls. I’ve also babysat for multiple families over the years ranging from overnights with infant twins to school vacation help for 12-year olds. I taught the preschool class at my church for 5 years as well. In October 2012, I had a daughter of my own! I began bringing her along to babysitting/ nanny positions, which worked out quite well. In 2019, after working as a nanny/ babysitter for 12 years, I transitioned to teaching. I worked as an assistant in a combined Pre-K/Kindergarten class for four years before becoming the lead teacher of a separate Pre-K class. I had another daughter in January 2024 and am currently exploring the possibility of a babysitting position where I can bring my 1-year old daughter along.

Britni S., Nanny in Acton, MA 01720 with 14 years of paid experience

Hello there, I am an experienced and educated childcare provider who has over 14 years of hands-on experience and a genuine love of children and their development. I have worked with children from birth through 17 years of age in various roles, but primarily in-home - providing support to the family unit and focusing on developmental support. I am college educated in Early Education, with a minor in special education that allows me the knowledge and experience to provide added support in the reaching of milestones and/or special challenges if they arise or become an area of concern. I have experience working with Early Intervention and can assist with Speech or Occupational concerns as well as ABA and sensory seeking behavioral supports with or without guidance. I hold current CPR and First Aid certifications, as well as various allergy training certifications and a complex pediatric Diabetes training completion through the Joslin center in Boston. A clean background check, clear driving record and reputable references are available upon request. With my childcare services you can expect my willingness to commit to household management as well as pet care and to provide the absolute best and thorough attention to your bundles of joy as if they were my own. If you are looking to add a member to your childcare village, please reach out and we can set up a time to connect. Looking forward to hearing from you! Best, Britni

Leeann S., Nanny in Acton, MA 01720 with 26 years of paid experience

WHY YOUR CHILDREN WILL LOVE ME~ as professional as I am, (see qualifications below...) I’m also lots of FUN! I believe that while electronics do have their place in this world, let’s put them aside and go to the beach! Waterslides, anyone? Singing in the car is a mood booster, let’s jam to our favorites! That could include dancing too, of course. Putting a fun twist on any task turns it into an adventure, you can count on me to be up for it! My instincts and sensitivity alert me to when that kind of energy may be overwhelming though. Feelings, concerns, emotions, sensitivities and opinions are important and are always treated with respect. FOR PARENTS... ABOUT ME~ I’m a mom of two, my son is active duty Navy, daughter in college. Former pediatric nursing experience PLUS parenting has helped me become quite skilled working with children. I’m a compassionate, dedicated, & reliable person who has 10+ years experience teaching eighth grade CCD. I am still a certified CPR/AED/First Aid instructor for the American Heart Association to stay current on safety and medical practices. Living in Billerica, MA means I’m close to many locations and don’t mind d a short drive. I’m happy to answer questions, provide reference lists, copies of my CORI checks, etc. Hopefully we can connect and discuss my qualifications & explore the possibility of me being a good fit.
