Hi! I'm Olivia. Thanks for visiting my profile. A little about me: I have 15 years of experience as both a full-time and part-time babysitter. I started babysitting in 2011, when I was a freshman at NYU. I'm now 33 and a freelance writer and editor. From 2011 to 2017 (before I left NYC temporarily for grad school), I babysat for 10-40 hours each week. My experience ranges from newborns to 14-year-olds, with every age in between. I especially enjoy sharing my love of books & reading. I love chatting with kids, answering their (hilarious/profound/thought-provoking) questions, and playing their favorite off-screen game. I was born in Manhattan, and I grew up in North and South Florida. Outside babysitting, I worked as a substitute teacher while attending grad school. From 2[removed], I was a full-time teacher at a private school in Florida, where I taught fourth grade reading, writing and science. I am skilled in social-emotional learning (SEL) and working with children with ASD (autism spectrum disorder), Levels I, I, and III; OCD; and ADHD. I am also skilled in helping kids cope with anxiety, anxious thinking, or anxiety-related behavior patterns. My hobbies include reading, spending time with my friends, and kayaking. I also have an M.F.A. in fiction writing, and I love talking to both kids and adults about books and writing! Some other helpful info: I am comfortable with pets and light housework/pet care. I am not comfortable babysitting children who are not feeling well/sick/contagious. Please let me know ahead of time if this becomes the case!

Very nice, responsible, and prompt. We will definitely hire Olivia again if she’s available.

Hello I'm Erika! I’m a mom of a 5 year old son!The last Children I babysat for called me the best caregiver they've ever had reason being, we always managed to stay active and keep busy by doing arts and crafts playing outside whatever it might be. Previously I worked in a daycare I've always had a passion for watching children! My number one thing is safety keeping your child safe is so important to me I will keep them safe as if their my own! I also like communication to know whats going on and nobody is wondering anything such as checking in once a day or sending a picture to show what were up to during the day! I have various cultural competence skills. If there is anything else you would like to ask please let me know! Thanks!

She was absolutely wonderful with my three kids (all under 3!), which is no small task. She was warm, patient, and immediately made both me and the kids feel comfortable. She handled everything calmly and confidently, and it was such a relief knowing they were in good hands. She’s also very easy to talk to and communicative. We would happily have her back again!

Booked by 5 families in Little Falls, NJ

Hi! I'm a mom of 2 children (both mid 20’s), from Eastern Europe and have been a nanny/household manager/chauffeur for over 25 years on and off. I enjoy being outdoors, singing songs and truly enjoy working with small children (I miss when mine were that age!). Most of my friends refer to me as the child whisperer because somehow I'm always able to make children laugh and smile. I look forward to finding new families to work with and can guarantee you that I will care for your children as if they were my own, as I do with all of the kids I care for. I’m currently looking for a family, preferably for afterschool care and am able to drive (my license is clean and I’ve been a driver for over 20 years). I am a great cook and do not mind cooking for your children. I also don't mind running simple errands and will do very light housework (picking up after kids/laundry). I can drive children in both my car or a parent’s car and am CPR certified. Policies: *I have a 4 hour work minimum policy which means that I must be booked and paid for at least 4 hours. I require full payment for the time I am booked regardless of when you are home. **Cancellation: If you cancel within 48 hours of scheduled start time I require 50% payment, 24 hours I require full payment. Please understand that my time is valuable and it's hard to book last minute work. Thank you!

Daniela is absolutely wonderful and very reliable! My son Josiah is 5 now and she has taken care of him multiple times since birth. She communicates with me effectively throughout the day and would ease my anxiety as a first time mom! She always engaged in educational activities, provided loving care, and managed Josiah’s routine with ease, and even though she wasn’t with us daily, every time she stepped in she was able to pick right up from where she left off. If she wasn’t already working full time, I would have snatched her up immediately! Your kids will love her and so will you!
