Jordan $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name's Jordan! Before I joined the corporate world, I spent 7 years coaching children from ages 4-18 in competitive cheerleading. I also doubled as their camp counselor for 4 of those summers. I'm hoping to help out parents in need of a date night, extra hours at work, time to themselves, etc. There aren't many kids in finance! So I thought this would be a good way to reconnect with them, while helping families out. I can also care for your pets if needed - assuming they're okay with new people. I am prepared to keep your children entertained with whichever activity you prefer! Whether that be helping with their homework, reading to/with them, playing games, etc. I can take them to the park, to school, whatever you need!

Booked by 1 family in North Arlington, NJ

I am an undergraduate student at Seton Hall University studying Social Work with a focus on child welfare. I have several years of childcare experience through babysitting and tutoring, working with children of different ages. Families describe me as dependable, patient, and caring. I enjoy creating a safe and fun environment, whether that’s helping with homework, planning activities, or supporting daily routines. I am looking for babysitting jobs that fit with my college schedule and am unavailable during school breaks. I am also comfortable with caring for pets and have four of my own!

Anelise was wonderful!!! On time, quick to jump in, my girls loved her, super helpful…for sure hope to book her again!

Marisol $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I'm Marisol and I live on the Upper West Side in Manhattan and am available in all 5 boroughs. I am 31 years old and have extensive experience with working with children and babysitting. I have worked at a Preschool in Park Slope, Les Petits Bilingues De New York, and babysat for several families in Westchester, NY. I have baby sat for 6 years. I am very creative and believe that playing and engaging with the kids I babysit is very important. I'm not about just putting them in front of a screen and sitting on my phone. I'm big on making sure your kids will have fun and get to bed on time. My brother is on the spectrum so kindness is something I really value and I will be very kind to your kids and encourage them in any way I can. I can cook, clean, and make sure everyone gets to bed at their appropriate bed time. I look forward to working for you and your family:) I also love all animals (I'm randomly allergic to cows..but that shouldn't be a problem in NYC ;) and am great at cleaning.

Katherine $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi everyone! My name is Kate, and I am seeking a part-time or full-time nanny position. I grew up in Ridgewood, NJ, and I am a recent graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Madison. I am moving to NYC in the fall to begin my master’s in Mental Health Counseling at Fordham University. I have over 6 years of childcare experience, working with children from 2 weeks to 11 years old. I love spending time outdoors, doing crafts, cooking, and finding creative ways to keep kids active and entertained. I’m happy to help with transportation, activities, meals, and more. I’m also comfortable with pets and happy to assist with light housekeeping if needed!
