Hola, me llamo Paola, tengo 40 años. Soy colombiano, he estado aquí durante dos años, he sido profesor casi toda mi vida, mi título es una Licenciatura en Educación, tengo experiencia con niños pequeños. Además, soy madre de un niño de siete años, mi inglés está en un nivel básico, estoy en clases, aprendiendo mucho, mi objetivo es hablarlo correctamente. Me encantan los niños, es mi vocación. Además de enseñar, me ocupo de la limpieza, la alimentación y, lo que es más importante, de su bienestar. Es la primera vez que me atrevo a solicitar un trabajo diferente al que he hecho aquí desde que llegué, ahora quiero empezar a seguir centrándome en lo que realmente no me gusta y en lo que quiero hacer, desde entonces quiero ser profesor de escuela. Esca busco oportunidades para aprender, tengo toda la actitud de aprender.

A little bit about me
My name is Begine Derilien and I am 19 years old. Although I don’t have any professional certification that is normally required for this job, I have been passionate about childcare for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for kids of all ages from NB to 12 years old and I’m sure to love and care for your kids as well. This passion has even inspired me to major in the pediatric field, therefore I hope this job experience will enhance my learning and help me further my passion for childcare.

A little bit about me
I’m a caring and dependable nanny based in Boston with over 10 years of hands-on childcare experience. As the oldest sibling in a family of five, caring for children has always been a natural part of my life. I have experience working with newborns, infants, toddlers, and elementary-aged children, and I’m comfortable supporting each stage of growth and development.
I’m patient, nurturing, and attentive, with a strong focus on safety, routines, and age-appropriate activities. From feeding, diaper changes, and nap schedules to homework help, creative play, and outdoor activities, I strive to create a warm, structured, and engaging environment where children feel safe and supported.
I value open communication with families and take pride in being reliable, organized, and genuinely invested in the well-being of the children in my care. I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide consistent, loving care for your little ones.

A little bit about me
I am a recent law school graduate. Between undergrad and law school I worked a year contract as a nanny for two families where I took care of two infants and then another year contract with another infant full time.
I have been babysitting and nannying children since I was in middle school.
I have experience with all ages, including infants, and worked at a Montessori school for a year (0-18 months). I also have experience with Baby Led Weaning.
I am a huge feminist, and that plays a large role in how I work with children - I want to nurture and help raise amazing members of our community who are tolerant, kind, empathetic, loving, and respectful of all people
I am fluent in Farsi and French if you are looking for a language-specific babysitter. I am responsible, caring, and empathetic, and I relate with children of all ages.
