A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Makada! I’m a warm and reliable babysitter based in Boston, MA. My experience comes from years of caring for my three younger siblings (ages 3, 4, and 8), so I’m very comfortable managing multiple kids at once and handling the everyday needs of little ones. I also have experience working with special needs children, so I understand the importance of patience, attentiveness, and creating a safe, supportive environment. Parents can count on me to treat every child with kindness and care — just like my own family. I’d love to be someone your family trusts!

A little bit about me

Hello! I have a lot of experience working with kiddos. I have worked as a gymnastics coach for over seven years. I love having fun with the kids and teaching them new skills. I have been a babysitter for family friends for just over 6 years. I have also worked as a nanny for many years. I have experience with newborns, including babies born prematurely. I have cared for kiddos with specific health needs, such as G-tubes, central lines, oxygen requirements, mobility limitations, and more. I have cared for children of all ages (from newborns to teens) and all abilities. I am also certified in CPR and first aid for all ages. I believe our schedules may be a good fit. I look forward to hearing from you!
