We are looking for some after school help for our kids, ages 5 and 7. This would involve pick up from school in Cambridge at 3pm and transportation to activities in the area.

Our Davis Square family of four in Somerville is looking for some part-time, weekday, after-school childcare help for our loving, energetic, curious, and creative 6-year-old. We’re hoping to find someone, or two people, interested in 10–20 hours/week, who would care for and play with our first grader from school pickup in Porter Square at 2:35pm until about 5:30pm or 6pm a few days a week. Right now, those days are fairly flexible.
We imagine this could be the perfect opportunity for a college or graduate student. We are ideally looking for someone with previous babysitting, nanny, camp counselor or teaching experience, and/or someone studying early-childhood education or development. There’s also the possibility of continuing with slightly different hours during the spring semester and perhaps even the summer, as well as weekend and nighttime sitting. Pay would be $18-22 an hour based on experience. Please email andrew.sessa@gmail.com if you’re interested. We look forward to hearing from you. Many thanks.
