Looking for work as a babysitter or nanny

  • 15 years paid experience
  • Nanny in Allston, MA 02134

Meet Kayla

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

I have over 15 years of babysitting experience and 5 years experience as a nanny. I have been so fortunate to work with and grow close to some truly incredible families. I've also had significant experience with children abroad establishing scholarships and educational programs, teaching English, and working in orphanages in Thailand, Mexico, and Nicaragua. As much as I love kids, I had to eventually pursue my career path as a graphic designer. A typical day with me involves everything and anything, crafts, reading, dance parties, dress up, Lego competitions, board games, beach trips, museum trips, playground trips, picnics, library trips, soccer games, play dates, rock climbing, slack lining, hiking, and basically anything fun under the sun. It's crucial to me that any family I work with isn't afraid to get a little silly sometimes, but also values respect, honesty and trust. I love the relationship I'm able to build Read more with the kids, but it's also important to have a great relationship with the parents as well. When I'm not working, I'm either at a yoga class, running, rock climbing, volunteering, or working on a new art or design project! Currently, I'm only looking for weeknight and weekend babysitting positions.
