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!

Hello Parents! Thank you for visiting my profile. My name is Amanda! I am a part time college student in my third year, studying animal science. As a New York Native I know how to navigate through the MTA system and the neighborhoods of each borough. I am CPR/First Aid Certified. I am currently available for part time work, occasional care, one time jobs, date nights, and holidays. One of my passions is caring for children, and animals. I have over 10 years of babysitter/nanny experience with children of all ages. Although, I’m pursing a degree in animal science, caring for children is something I’ll always continue to do. I love getting to know children, watching them grow, and supporting their important milestones. Along with my childcare experience, I have 9 years of experience working as a pet sitter. My dream is to open a pet care, and babysitting company. Why not both! I have been caring for children since the age of 12. I started babysitting my younger brother at a young age, as I grew older I transitioned into caring for my younger cousins, and working as a babysitter/nanny. In addition, I have experience caring for children with ADHD, ADD, & Anxiety. In the early summer of 2019 I worked for Camp Shiloh as a Camp Counselor in Training. I was a fellow camper myself there for several years, and I currently am a mentor under their youth program Hi-Def. A fun fact about me, I love Harry Potter, and comic books. Some of the fun things I love to do with children are making art, building blocks, engaging in activities around the city, read books, dancing, baking, playing board games, going to parks, sports, playing with toys & more. In my free time I like to swim, skateboard, listen to music, learn new things, write, and ground myself in nature. Children love me as their babysitter because I’m empathetic, open minded, committed, and pretty funny 😊 Booking Policies: - Due to safety reasons, after 10:30 pm I request a Uber/Lyft home - 3 hours minimum booking - In the event you come home early, I still require full payment. - If the job is cancelled within 48 hours, I require 50% of payment as a cancellation fee. Your child’s safety is my upmost importance, and of course having fun. I hope you as well as your loved ones are doing well, and staying safe during this transitional time. I look forward to hearing from you. References can be provided.

Hi! I'm Kelly. I have 20+ years of childcare experience with specializations in infant care and autism care. I hold a BA in English from UNCG and an MA in literature from CCNY. My favorite thing to do with children of all ages is share my love for reading. I have 4 years of teaching experience including ADHD executive functioning coaching and teaching English at the undergraduate level. I work in non-profit communications.

Kelly was so great with my 3 year old and 7 month old and was able to put both kids to bed on her first visit with us while we went out for date night. Our 7 month old was pretty fussy and she was able to manage everything like a pro! Would 100% book her again for babysitting.

Dependable and dedicated caregiver with over 13+ years of childcare experience supporting families with infants through pre-teens. I provide after-school, evening, and weekend care for households with up to five children. Known for being reliable, calm, and adaptable, I bring a strong understanding of child development and age-appropriate engagement. I prioritize creating a safe, structured, and nurturing environment where children are encouraged to think creatively, develop independence, and practice respect for themselves and others. I communicate clearly with parents, maintain consistency in routines, and approach caregiving with professionalism, patience, and care. My résumé and letters of recommendation are available upon request. I welcome the opportunity to connect and further discuss how my experience and approach can support your family’s needs.

Farah was fantastic! She watched our kids during a date night while we were visiting New York, and she was exactly what we hoped for. She was warm, dependable, and easy to communicate with. We came home to happy, sleeping kids and had complete peace of mind while we were out. We’d happily book Farah again the next time we’re in New York.

Hello! My name is Evelyn. I’m 27 years old and a caring, reliable, and professional babysitter with over six years of experience working with children. I am currently pursuing my MBA at Baruch College in New York after earning my Bachelor’s degree in Sociology. My studies gave me a deeper understanding of child development, family dynamics, communication, and social behavior, which helps me better understand each child’s unique needs and build positive relationships with both children and parents. After attending college and working with children for three years, I proudly served four years in the U.S. Army, where I strengthened my leadership, responsibility, patience, and organizational skills. My military experience helped me become calm under pressure, dependable, and adaptable, qualities that I bring to every family I work with. Caring for children has always been my passion, and I love creating a safe, happy, and engaging environment through play, learning, and positive interaction. In my free time, I enjoy working out, reading, cooking, and staying organized. Spanish is my first language, and I’m happy to speak Spanish with children if parents would like to introduce or reinforce the language at home. I’m proud to have many wonderful reviews and repeat families. References are available upon request.

Easy to work with and great with my daughter!
