A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Zoë, and I am a college student currently living in Boston, MA. As the oldest in a long string of cousins, I grew up with the responsibilities of caring for the children in my family. As I got older, I began babysitting for an extensive network of families in the community. I then pursued a four-year-long internship in an integrated-needs preschool, which inspired me to join the educational field. Working so closely, for so long, with so many students, opened my eyes to the needs of children from every walk of life. The inclusive setting of that classroom has given me valuable experience with modified sign langauge, children diagnosed with Autism and ADHD, physically impaired students, and children of all cognitive and behavioral levels. Childcare is absolutely my passion, and I can envision no better way to work towards my degree than caring for and teaching other tiny humans.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Jenn, I'm 23 and a recent college graduate from the University at Buffalo. In school I majored in Health & Human Services and was able to take many courses in Early Childhood Development in my program! I moved to Boston in September 2021 living in the Back Bay Area for career opportunities in my field as well as new experiences. Previously, I lived in New York and spent my summers during college nannying, babysitting, and working at a summer camp with children aged 1-3. Through working at the camp I made relationships with families and would personally babysit for their children outside of camp. Most recently before moving to Boston I spent most of my time exclusively with a few families every week watching children while parents worked from home/ran errands during the day. I have experience with infants, (9mo-1 year) and children (2 yrs-7 yrs).

A little bit about me

Hi! I am a college graduate who is taking a couple of years off before going back to school to get my Masters Degree! I got my degree in History from the University of North Carolina at Wilmington. I have been working with children since I was 16, I am reliable and caring. I enjoy working with children and seeing their little personalities develop into something amazing with the right care and nurturing. I am very good at planning activities for kiddos to do, such as crafts, games, going to the park, or the beach, pool, etc etc. I am also able to help with schoolwork and housekeeping/light meal prep. I am able to cook and can cook balanced meals according to the child’s tastes and dietary restrictions as well. I love each child I work with as if they were my own, and I show that kind of care and respect for them when they are in my care. I love to read and love to read to kids and get them engaged and interested in books. I’m excited to work for an amazing family!
