Please let me know if you know of anyone who may be interested in this opportunity!
DESCRIPTION:
We live near Porter Square (less than a 10-minute walk to the Porter Square Red Line stop) and are looking for an experienced, full-time nanny for a long-term commitment (1+ year) who's excited to grow and adapt with our family. Consistency, punctuality, and strong communication are especially important to us.
SCHEDULE:
- M–Th, 7:30am–6:30pm (~44 hours/week) - flexibility for more hours, if interested
- Immediate start preferred but some flexibility
THE ROLE:
- Jul-Sept: You’ll care for our two kids - 3 year old and 1.25 year old
- Sept–Feb: You'll primarily care for our 1.25 year old. Our 3 year old gets home from school around 3pm, so you'll have both kids for a few hours each afternoon.
- End of Nov: I'm due with our third child in November and will be on maternity leave through February. You will not be responsible for the infant during this time.
- Starting Feb (when I return to work): You'll care for our two younger kids - an infant and a toddler (almost 2 by then) — until 3pm, when our oldest gets home from school. Around this time, we'll also bring on an afternoon nanny, and the two of you will share care of all three kids together.
Flexibility is important for this role given the transitions ahead - we're looking for someone who can grow with our family through these changes.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
- Prioritize children's safety and well-being
- Foster social development, education, and manners (daily reading, outings to parks/museums/library, playdates, etc.)
- Communicate proactively - updates on schedule, meals, naps, and any developmental changes or concerns
- Diapering and hygiene (including nightly baths)
- Keep play spaces and belongings clean and organized
- Restock diapers/wipes in kids' rooms and play areas
- Drop-off and/or pick-up once the 3 year old starts school in Sept
- Cook/meal prep for the children
- Prepare and clean bottles
- Load/unload dishwasher
- Children's laundry
- Empty diaper pails
- Reinforce good habits
REQUIREMENTS:
- Valid driver's license + clean driver’s license, having your own car is a bonus (parking available). We’ll reimburse for gas/mileage for drop-off/pick-up and taking kids to activities
- 5+ years of professional nanny experience, and experience with multiple kids
- Non-smoker
- Up to date on vaccinations (TDAP, flu, COVID)
- CPR and First Aid certified
- Comfortable around dogs (we have a goldendoodle) - no pet care duties required
COMPENSATION / BENEFITS:
- $27–32/hour, based on experience (blended rate for 1-2 kids)
- Guaranteed hours
- Paid sick and vacation days, and holidays

As our family prepares for a big transition this fall, one of the hardest parts is saying goodbye to someone who has become so much more than our nanny.
Our incredible nanny has been with our twins since they were just 3 months old. For the last 3½ years, she has loved, guided, and cared for our children as if they were her own. She has been an integral part of our family, and it’s impossible to put into words how grateful we are for the role she’s played in helping raise our babies into the amazing little people they are today.
She is dependable, trustworthy, patient, and endlessly loving. Our children absolutely adore her, and so do we. From playgrounds and libraries to museums, neighborhood adventures, and exploring everything the city has to offer, she has filled their days with joy, curiosity, learning, and fun. There has never been a moment that we haven’t felt complete confidence leaving our children in her care. She has celebrated milestones alongside us, comforted tears, encouraged independence, and loved our family wholeheartedly.
She is available this fall because we are moving outside of the city and our twins will be starting school. If circumstances were different, we would keep her forever. The thought of life without her honestly feels a little scary because she has become such a constant, trusted, and deeply loved presence in our lives.
She is ideally looking for a September 1 start date, although we do have some flexibility should a family need care a bit sooner or later. She is local to the city and is looking to stay in any of the city neighborhoods.
Any family would be beyond lucky to have her. We cannot recommend her highly enough and would be thrilled to speak with anyone considering welcoming her into their home. Please text her directly at 617 306 1060 or message me!
Hi! My name is Cinthya, I’m from Mexico and I am an experienced nanny with over four years of childcare experience working with children ranging from 3 months old to 9 years old. Throughout my career, I have cared for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children, supporting their daily routines and developmental milestones in a safe, loving, and engaging environment.
I studied Psychology, which has given me a strong understanding of child development, emotional regulation, and age-appropriate learning. I believe in creating meaningful connections with children by combining warmth, patience, and clear boundaries. My goal is always to help children feel secure, confident, and supported while encouraging their independence and curiosity.
My responsibilities have included bottle feeding, diaper changes nap routines, school and activity drop-offs, organizing playdates, and maintaining children’s spaces. I also enjoy planning educational and fun activities such as reading, arts and crafts,music,visits to parks and libraries.
I am currently looking for a long-term position with a family that values kindness, communication, and a collaborative approach to childcare. I would love the opportunity to support your family and help your children learn, grow, and thrive.
