Hi, I’m Dirsia! I’m a loving, reliable, and energetic caregiver with a deep passion for working with children. I’m originally from the Dominican Republic and fluent in both Spanish and English. I’m also the proud mother of a 10-year-old special needs boy, which has taught me patience, flexibility, and the importance of meeting each child where they are. I currently work for Cambridge Public Schools, supporting children from diverse backgrounds and with different needs. I have hands-on experience with high-energy kids, and I love keeping them engaged through physical activities, art, books, and fun adventures. I’ve cared for children as young as 2 months old all the way up to teenagers. In my role as a nanny and babysitter, I can help with: • Washing bottles and changing clothes/diapers • Tidying up play areas and children’s spaces • Putting children down for naps • Helping with toilet training • Engaging Read more in play and arranging age-appropriate activities • Outdoor walks and outings (weather permitting) • Preparing snacks and light meals • School drop-offs and pick-ups • I’m pet-friendly too! I always put safety and well-being first. I’m also flexible and happy to follow your family’s routine. I understand that every household is different, and I’m open to working together to find a schedule and care plan that works for everyone. Whether you need occasional babysitting or regular help, I’d love to connect and see how I can support your family!
