Hello,
We are two families in East Arlington seeking after school care for the 2025-2026 school year, both children will be 4 years old and attend Menotomy Preschool. The children would need to be picked up at school at 2:00 M-F, and brought back to East Arlington by bus or on foot (1.5 mi, mostly on the bike path, a double stroller would be provided if walking). Then the caregiver would supervise the children’s snack and playtime until 5:00 (either at a local park or at one of the families’ homes).
Rate TBD, commensurate with experience. No responsibilities outside of supervising the two children.
Location: Both families’ homes are within 5 minutes from the minuteman bike path, 10-15 minute walk of Alewife and the 77 bus. Menotomy Preschool is adjacent to the bike path and also on the 77 bus route.
Please contact Grace: graceafterschoolsitter@gmail.com
In search of a friendly, confident and fun individual for evening/weekend babysitting for our three kids, ages 1, 5 and 9. Must have childcare experience and own transportation.
$20-30/hour commensurate with experience.
Please send an email to amelia dot leutz at gmail dot com indicating your interest and we can set up a time to talk and/or meet our family.
Ready, Set, KIDS! is now hiring after school staff for the 2025-2026 school year! Programs are designed for Kindergarten through 3rd grade students, and have locations in both Arlington and Medford (the Medford location is just a short walk from campus, on North St). Part-time positions are available for Monday-Friday 2-6pm. If interested, contact afterschool@ready-set-kids.com.
We’re looking for a loving and fun person to help care for our two boys (ages 4.5 and 6.5) Monday through Friday from 2:00-5:00 PM. If you’re only available on certain days or need a few more hours, we’d still love to hear from you!
Hourly rate: $25-$35/hr, based on experience.
We both work from home in a cozy 2-family house in Arlington. My in-laws live downstairs and often take one of the boys on adventures, so most days you’ll be spending time with just one child.
The boys love being outside, riding their scooters, playing with Magnatiles, and building with Legos. If you enjoy engaging with energetic kids and creating a fun afternoon, we think you’d be a great fit!

Seeking a reliable caregiver to drop our 6mo infant off for daycare during the first 3 weeks of December. We are both school teachers, and unfortunately need to begin our commute before the daycare center is open!
Our son’s daycare is fairly close by, located on Mass Ave. It is a 3min drive from our home or a 12min stroller walk. We would have his things packed and ready to go, you would spend maybe 30-40 min with him to play or possibly feed a prepared bottle, and then drop him off at daycare by 8am. We have 4hr free parking on our street, and the 77 bus has frequent drops off at the end of our block.
No house duties included in this position- we want the hour to be as simple as possible! All his belongings will be prepared for the day, he will just need company for a little bit and safe arrival at his daycare.
Location: Arlington Center, near Town Hall
Hours: 6:45am – 8am, M-F (first 3 weeks of December)
Pay: $20 – $25 per dropoff, will happily negotiate based upon experience
Looking for someone who is:
Please reach out to Diana at diana.galanakis@gmail.com if you are interested!
