A little bit about me
My name is Brianna and I have been working with children for years. I am CPR and First aid certified and I worked as a medical assistant for 2 years and got my certification. I started working with kids when I was in high school, from babysitting to teaching swim lessons at the local pool, I enjoyed working with kids no matter what I was doing. Even after high school I was looking for babysitting jobs and continued to teach private swim lessons. Make sure to read my resume to see all my experience and accomplishments.

A little bit about me
Hi there! I’m Hailey - a caring, organized, and creative nanny with a heart for little ones and years of hands-on experience. I grew up in upstate New York, where I nannied full-time for a doctor and a chef, caring for their two young boys almost every day. From cooking and cleaning to story time and spontaneous adventures, I was part of their family up until I went to college.
I’ve cared for kids of all ages through my college years but I especially love working with toddlers and preschoolers. I’ve also worked as a YMCA counselor watching a group of 5-10 children ranging in ages from 3-5. I’m fluent in German, love the cook and craft, always keep things tidy and structured - with lots of heart in everything I do.
My husband and I are currently in North Carolina, but I’m hoping to relocate to Boston and would happily move for the right family fit. I’d love to connect and see if we’re a match!

A little bit about me
My name is Achot Aroman. I’m from Syracuse NY and graduated from high school in 2021 with a 3.7 GPA so I am fully equipped to tutor children as I’ve always done it for my two younger siblings. I am now a full time student at UMass Boston as a Biology Major currently taking this semester off (Fall 2023) and am looking for full time position as a babysitter/nanny. I occasionally work as a paid nanny but mainly for family and am now branching out. I am currently working towards receiving cpr training/certification and would be available all weekdays and occasionally weekends during the day. I love working with children and engaging in fun activities with them as well. There’s no such thing as a child who is too difficult! Please don’t let my lack of professional experience discourage you from hiring me, I’m simply a college student trying to make her way through the world!
