About Esther

Experience: 8 yrs

My name is Esther. I love caring for children! I'm a Certified infant/toddler/preschool teacher. I am fluent in English and French & I'm conversational in Spanish. I currently work at a Daycare Center in Somerville. I'm very comfortable with caring for 4 children at a time (as I have up to 10 children at a time in my classroom) I'm First aid & CPR certified. I currently attend Umass Boston, finishing up with my bachelors. I have also volunteered as a youth basketball and soccer coach, & after-school tutor. I'm great at keeping kids engaged & entertained by reading books and playing & im also good at prepping lunch/dinner & daytime/night time routine. I own my own car so transportation isn't a problem. I love helping & watching children grow & would be more than happy to babysit!

Highly recommend!!! No hesitations. Esther helped us out during the holidays. Our two daughters immediately loved her. She showed up with fun activities prepared for them, and was very flexible and communicative with me. We were visiting from California and staying in hotels in both Boston and Lexington. Esther watched the girls while I packed and moved us from Boston to Lexington and to go back to California, and on other days she watched them so I could get a break. She was flexible with schedule and a changing space. She is so wonderful and we miss her.
