Mary S., Nanny in Stow, MA 01775 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 babysitting positions where I can bring my 2-year old daughter along, especially in the summer months when I’m not teaching.

Sara has been such an amazing addition to our family over the last year. She has cared for our infant daughter who adores her. She helped us navigate our daughters changing needs, teething, sleep schedules, and more. She is incredibly proactive and jumps in to help out whenever needed which has been such a huge help. She has also been so flexible with all of the changes throughout the pandemic which made navigating the unique work and school changes much easier! We are so sad to no longer have her with us but we know she will be able to provide amazing care for another family!

Are you looking for an occasional sitter? A summertime sitter? I’m a full time art teacher during the school year. I’m seeking occasional sitting positions and summer time sitting positions. Perhaps you need a date night or just need an occasional night out. I have CPR, first aid and epi pen training. I have raised my son and also two step daughters who are now adults. I had been a lifeguard when I was 16, of course all that training is expired, but I feel that those life experiences stay with you. I look forward to hearing from you. I am vaccinated for Covid-19

We met Sandie at the beginning of the pandemic through Dumpling, which is a personal shopping app. She was our food shopping angel during Covid and 2 years later not only does she still shop for us, but we have her occasionally babysit our 4 year old who loves Sandie! Flexible, thorough, and just all around a nice person.

Joan babysat for my 5 and 2 year old recently. I could tell that the safety and comfort of the kids is a priority for her. Joan is also very reliable; I got the impression that she is the type who always shows up on time and keeps her commitments. I've had a couple experiences in the past where a babysitter is happy to show up if it is rainy or cold outside but as soon as the weather is nice, they text you and say they have a family matter. I'm confident that you won't have to worry about this with Joan; she even showed up on a holiday weekend when it was sunny and in the 80's. If you are looking for someone more mature who will not be texting her friends, inviting people over, etc while she is watching the kids, then I would highly recommend getting in touch with Joan.

Tummy has been caring for my 3 kids (3.5 and 17 month old twins) for just about a year, and there aren't enough words to express how incredible she has been for our family. She is loving, attentive, trustworthy, punctual, hard working, and just overall indispensable. Taking care of 3 kids, all who are young and needy, isn't easy, but Tummy handles it all with grace. Our kids love her and are thrilled every day she walks in the door, which is such a comfort because I know I am leaving my babies in good hands. As our twins have grown from 6 months to almost 18 months, we've adjusted their naps and feeding schedules, and Tummy has adjusted right alongside us and made sure the schedules we needed were followed. She prepares snacks and lunches, and ensures the kids are having fun and staying safe throughout the day. She will always jump in to help with anything in addition to her standard responsibilities - from cleaning, cooking, or doing laundry while the kids are napping, offering to stay late if work schedules get hectic, or being flexible with anything that arises. Tummy loves our kids as if they are her own, which is so comforting because I have full faith and trust that she will do whatever is in their best interest at all times. Tummy has been such a wonderful addition to our family, and has in fact become our family. We love her and wholeheartedly believe any family would be lucky to have her.

Hi! I'm Kylie Marshall, I am a senior at UMASS Boston. I am 22 and live in Sudbury, MA. My college courses are all virtual, which gives me a lot of flexibility for work! | Experience | - 9 years of babysitting/nannying (2 months - 12 yrs) - 3 summers of camp counseling (4 yrs - 15 yrs) - 7 years of lifeguarding (all ages) - 7 years of swim instructing (3 months - 15 yrs) - 5 years as a team swimming coach (6 yrs -16 yrs). - Most recently, My most recent employment has been working with a 2 month old, 1.5 year old, and a 4 year old girls as their nanny! | Certification | - First Aid - AED - CPR - Lifeguarding - Water Safety Instruction - EMT License in progress | Approach to Childcare | My greatest strength in this line of work is being able to make anything fun. I have a ton of energy, especially for things like going outside, running around, and playing imaginative games. I also like to make space for creativity and expression with art, crafts, and music. Nourishing a child's free spirit is especially important to me. I like to support and teach where I can while also making sure to leave room for independence and exploration. Helping kids establish their autonomy and learn to set boundaries is important to me. I encourage a gentle and kind attitude toward the self and others. My goal is always to find a way to make every day memorable, and to connect with the kids I work with in a way that fosters genuine trust and love. It is an honor to get to be one of their grown ups and to watch them grow into who they are! I am excited to find a family that I can work with long-term and form genuine connections with!

Kerry anne S., Nanny in Stow, MA 01775 with 11 years of paid experience

I have been a caregiver for over 10 years. I tried a few different jobs during my early twenties and found caregiving kind of by accident but have loved ever second of it. I love how everyday is different and exciting, and working with kids is so much fun. I mean who wouldn't want to go to work and laugh everyday. I try to keep things interesting for the kids I'm working with as well, by trying to get out of the house and do fun activities or even try to find fun games to play around the house. I have worked with a wide range of clients from brand new newborns to older children as well as a few jobs with the elderly. I am a hard worker who is always willing to go the extra mile for my clients, I believe that I'm there to help make the parents lives a little less stressful so I'm always willing to lend a hand with housework or errands, driving from place to place for pick ups/drop offs.
