$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Britney, a 25-year-old marketing professional looking to babysit part-time. I have experience caring for children ranging from toddlers (2 years old) to young teens. I spent a summer regularly caring for a 5 year old during early morning - afternoon shifts, where I handled morning routines, meals, naps, and trips to the park.   I’m patient, attentive, and love keeping kids engaged through reading, games, and creative play, especially when screen time is limited. I’m also happy to accompany children to nearby parks or activities within walking distance or a short subway ride. I aim to create a safe, fun, and structured environment that both kids and parents can feel comfortable with.

Britney is phenomenal with childcare. She pays close attention to needs to ensure that children feel seen. She also has many interests and hobbies that allow her to introduce kids to different art forms and help them with their creativity!

Hi! My name is Sophie and I'm a 23 year old Poetry MFA student at Columbia. I adore working with children, and am passionate about the patience, care, and creativity that it takes to give children the love they need! As well as being an experienced babysitter since I was thirteen, I have been a preschool teacher since I was a junior in High school, working at Shirat Hayam preschool of the North Shore from 2[removed] and the Preschool of the Arts Cambridge as a full-time preschool assistant during the summer of 2021 and 2023. There, I worked in the infant classroom as well as substituting for the 4-5 year old class. After graduating from Bennington College in 2023, I also worked as an English teacher in Kazakhstan for seven months, teaching classrooms of teenagers. It's very important to me that I create a safe, open, and fun environment where kids can feel their best to explore and feel grounded. I am skilled at creating projects and games for children, changing diapers, and well-versed in caring for infants. I am CPR certified. Feel free to contact me about references!

Luci $32 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Luci. 😊 New to this platform and happy to provide copies of my background checks. I’m a warm and dependable babysitter with three years of experience caring for children ages 10 months to 8 years. I focus on helping kids feel safe, understood, and supported while keeping routines calm and predictable. I recently graduated from Middlebury College, where I studied psychology with a focus on child development. This background helps me support emotional regulation, communication, and positive behavior, especially for children with ADHD or on the autism spectrum. I’m certified in First Aid and CPR and have experience with homework help, simple meal prep, bathroom routines, school pick ups and drop offs, and supporting bilingual English and Spanish language development. I also love incorporating creative, screen free activities like art, movement, and imaginative play. Families describe me as patient, attentive, and reliable. I communicate clearly with parents and follow household routines closely. I’m currently seeking a part time, long term position Tuesday through Friday and am available to start ASAP. I’d love to connect and learn more about your family.
