Babysitter for 2-year-old (Reading, MA)

Posted on by

My name is Lydia Connell, and I am a Tufts alumni and school psych in Winchester. I recently switched to part time because I opened my own business running afterschool SEL groups for children. I’m looking for a babysitter for my 2 year old, Charlie, on Wednesday and Thursdays afternoons between 4-5pm starting in September. This would be great for an intern looking to make some extra money, and we are flexible if you wanted to add more time. You would need a car so you can pick Charlie up at daycare by 4pm in Reading, MA (we can provide you a car seat). If interested, feel free to email me at Lydia.treat@gmail.com

After-school Childcare (North Cambridge)

Posted on by

Our North Cambridge family of four (including our furry friend Mowgli)  is looking for some part-time, weekday, after-school childcare help for our funny, active, articulate, and kind 6-year-old boy.

We’re hoping to find someone, or two people, interested in 3.5–12 hours/week who would care for and play with our little guy, pick him up from school in North Cambridge at 3:00 pm, take him for lessons, or just work with him on chess, puzzles, and if possible Spanish. We would love it if someone could watch him from 3:00 until about 6:30 p.m. a few days a week (ideally Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday).

We imagine this could be the perfect opportunity for a college or graduate student — particularly someone studying or otherwise interested in being part of a family with a fun kid, a dog, and a super awesome food business. We are a Spanish and Bengali-speaking family. Any help with Spanish would be greatly appreciated. English is our preferred language :).

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.

Compensation could be $20-25/hour, depending on experience. Parking will be reimbursed.

Having a car is a requirement because, on some days, he needs to go for lessons in Somerville or Cambridge, which are within driving distance. 

We look forward to hearing from you. If interested, please contact Brinda at sen.brinda@gmail.com
