A little bit about us

Hello! I am a nurse and work nights, part-time, and I am looking for a nanny share in South Boston for one morning a week when I need to sleep.

I have an 18-month-old girl who is a love! She is very easy going and gets along with everyone, especially kids. I need someone to care for my child for a few hours - go for walks/ go to playground/ story time at the library, or just hang out and play!

I am very flexible with what days I can work. I need someone one day a week (the day can be chosen upon discussion) but the hours I would need help with are from 8AM to 1PM.
