Hello families! My name is Shalaynes Alvarez, and I’m a college student at Boston University, majoring in psychology. I’m bilingual, speaking both English and Spanish. A fun fact about me is that I have three sisters, and growing up, I loved taking care of them. Now, I also get to spend time caring for my nephew and niece ! I enjoy finding fun and creative ways for kids to learn, playing games with them, and making sure they feel seen and appreciated. I’m creative, genuine, and outgoing, and I love activities like crafting, making scarves from yarn, or even creating slime with younger kids. As a sitter, I’m here to help with cooking, light housekeeping, and—most importantly—making your children my top priority. From homework help to arts and crafts, I look forward to engaging with them and building a connection. My goal is not just to have a job but Read more to form meaningful relationships with the families I work with and their wonderful kids!

Shay is amazing! She is communicative, responsible, punctual, and so friendly. My daughter LOVES her! I know I can rely on Shay to take good care of my daughter and ensure she is safe, happy, and cared for.
