Hi! My name is Alynah, and I’m a 4th-year medical student. I recently moved to Boston to work at Harvard/BIDMC on a research fellowship prior to graduating with my MD. I am well-trained to handle various situations and am certified in BLS, CPR, and First Aid. As the oldest of four children and 26 grandchildren, I have spent much of my life watching, feeding, cleaning up after, playing with, and teaching kids of all ages. Since joining Sittercity, I have babysat 14 children between 10 months and 10 years and had a blast every time! During undergrad, I spent two years working with individuals with disabilities on college-level coursework, job applications, and social activities. I genuinely enjoy spending time with young people from all backgrounds. Being away from home makes me miss connecting with children, so hanging out with your kiddos in my free time would help Boston feel more Read more like home. I have a car and am willing to drop off and pick up kids from extracurricular activities, help with homework, cook meals, run small errands, and more, as long as the tasks are clearly defined and agreed upon beforehand. I look forward to meeting you and your kiddos! Thank you for considering my application!

We couldn’t be more thrilled with our experience with Alynah! Our 8-year-old twins took to her immediately. She came prepared with creative activities like building STEM marshmallow towers, which had both kids completely engaged. She didn’t just stop there—she played basketball with our son, braided our daughter’s hair (which she refused to take out for two days!) and even added a fun twist to UNO by having the winner sign her deck. Both of our twins agreed, without hesitation, that she was the best babysitter they’ve ever had. As parents, we also appreciated how punctual, responsive, and thoughtful she was throughout the entire process. She’s not only reliable, but also truly amazing with kids. We feel very lucky to have found her and the twins can't wait for Alynah to sit again!
