Hi! My name is Myra, and I’m a responsible, caring, and dependable babysitter with over 10 years of hands-on childcare experience helping raise my younger siblings from infancy through childhood. I’m very comfortable with daily routines such as feeding, diapering, naps, bedtime, homework help, and supervising multiple children. I’m patient, calm, and safety-focused, and I do my best to create a positive, supportive environment where kids feel comfortable and cared for. I’m also organized, attentive, and respectful of each family’s routines and preferences. I understand how important trust is when choosing a caregiver, and I take that responsibility seriously while making sure children feel happy, engaged, and safe
Hi! My name is Rosmy, and I recently graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology. I have experience working with both children on the autism spectrum and neurotypical children, so I’m comfortable adapting to each child’s unique needs and personality. I’m patient, responsible, and energetic, and I love creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment for kids. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, doing crafts, or keeping a consistent routine, I always make sure children feel cared for and supported. Parents can count on me to be dependable, attentive, and committed to their child’s well-being while making sure they have a great time. I look forward to getting to know your family!
Hi! My name is Kezi, and I’m a caring, patient, and responsible person who genuinely enjoys being around children. As a mother myself, I understand how important it is for children to feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I know how much trust it takes to leave your child in someone else’s care, and I would treat every child with kindness, attention, and respect. I offer attentive childcare, including supervising children, helping with feeding and mealtimes, diaper changes, maintaining routines, engaging children in fun activities, and keeping their spaces tidy. I want parents to feel comfortable knowing their children are in caring and dependable hands. I enjoy helping children learn, explore, and have fun through age-appropriate activities. This can include reading books, singing songs, playing games, doing arts and crafts, taking walks, and encouraging creativity and development.

Hi! I’m a college student with years of hands-on childcare experience. I’ve been babysitting for family and family friends since I was 9, and caring for kids has always come naturally to me. I’m patient, responsible, and very engaging. I love doing crafts, games, reading, outdoor play, and helping with homework. I’m comfortable with bedtime routines, preparing simple meals, and keeping the home tidy after activities. My goal is always to create a safe, fun, and positive environment so parents can feel completely at ease while they’re away. I’m especially great with toddlers and elementary-aged kids and I’m happy to care for multiple children at once. I’m available for evenings, weekends, and date nights in NYC and North Jersey, and I respond quickly to messages here.
