$30 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Chantal, and I’m a recent graduate of NYU Wagner currently working part-time at a nonprofit organization. Because I work remotely and have a flexible schedule, I’m available for part-time, occasional, evening, and weekend babysitting. Working with children has always been one of the most joyful and meaningful parts of my life. I love building trusting relationships with children, encouraging their curiosity, and creating spaces where they feel safe, supported, and free to explore the world around them. My experience includes: • Nannying children from 3 months to 12 years old, with most of my experience being with children ages 2–6. I have worked long-term nanny positions as well as one-time babysitting, school pickups, evening care, and overnight care. • Working as an English-Spanish bilingual tutor in an elementary school, supporting children ages 6–8. • Serving as a sleepaway camp counselor for 5–6-year-old girls, where I completed training in CPR, First Aid, and water safety. I enjoy creating engaging experiences tailored to each child’s interests—whether that’s trips to the park, museums, libraries, or neighborhood adventures, as well as imaginative play, arts and crafts, reading, and sensory activities at home. I highly value outdoor time and believe childhood should be full of joy, creativity, wonder, and opportunities to learn through play. ✨ I’m also happy to provide: • Homework help and tutoring • Snack and meal preparation (omnivore, vegetarian, and vegan) • Pet care and assistance around the home • Support with public transit and practicing age-appropriate safety skills I am fluent in English and Spanish, conversational to near-fluent in Italian, and conversational in American Sign Language (ASL). I’m comfortable working in homes with pets of any kind and would love the opportunity to learn more about your family’s needs. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or to set up a meeting! I look forward to meeting you and your little ones. 🫶🏼😊

New York
$35 per hour for 1 child

I'm a NYC native that has lived and worked as a nanny in both NYC and LA. I graduated from NYU with a BA in Creative Writing and minored in Early Childhood Education - which has benefited me greatly in my time spent with kids! I am from a large family and grew up around a bunch of kids. I've been babysitting for ten years, have been a full time nanny for 5, and have also taught as a children's music teacher, and summer camp swim instructor. I pride myself on being responsible, outgoing, and honest. A hectic household has always been familiar to me; and is sometimes where I feel most comfortable! I'm a runner, a writer, and live a really healthy and active lifestyle. As a nanny, I always try to lead with kindness and curiosity. I really believe in following the interests of the kids and allowing them to have safe and creative spaces to explore childhood and the various emotions that come with that. I'm just as comfortable taking a 3 year old to a museum as I am playing soccer or freeze-tag in the park -- and always try to find fun in the dull moments! I'm currently looking for full time positions. *I charge for full time booked if cancelled within 12 hours

Oakland
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Kathryn! I'm a Mental Health Counselor at an elementary school in Oakland where I provide trauma-focused therapy. I completed my Master of Social Work at NYU in 2022, and prior to grad school, I was a kindergarten teacher for 7 years. I love exploring and learning with kids, and my teaching experience was focused on combining social and emotional wellness with project-based, exploratory learning. I am patient and love having fun with kids, but am also confident in setting clear boundaries and expectations that ensure safety and comfort are always the top priorities. I've worked extensively with children and adults with special needs as well, and am comfortable communicating in various ways to suit individual styles and abilities. I play the harp in my free time and am passionate about fostering creativity through music and art with young children. I also love being outdoors and led a nature club at school for a number of years, so I'm always looking for opportunities for kids to be scientists and learn from the world around them.

Hello, Bay Area Families! My name is Ashley, and it’s great to meet you. I really enjoy babysitting kids and getting to know them and their unique personalities!
