I have worked as a Special Education Aide in the classroom at Palo Alto Unified School District, a Teacher's Assistant at Bridge the Gap College Prep, and a summer school Math teacher in the Marin City School District. I also worked in the nursery at Redeemer Presbyterian. I studied Leadership and Management at NYU and I am looking to babysit once a weekend (recurring), either Saturday or Sunday, for around four hours (flexible). I would describe myself as empathetic, energetic, and creative. Hope to speak with you soon! :)

Hi, thank you for taking the time to check out my profile! I graduated from college in 2024 and am currently working full-time at a law firm. I have lots of experience working with children (infants as young as 2 months old to 11 years old) whether it be through nannying, volunteer organizations, summer camps, and in the classroom. Currently, I babysit for one-year old twins, sibling toddlers that are four and two, and a four-month old baby. Lastly, I grew up swimming competitively up until my senior year of high school (and have coaching experience) so am also comfortable at the swimming pool. I am available in the evenings and anytime during the weekend. I look forward to hearing from you!

Hi there! I graduated from Tufts University with a major in Political Science and have worked in foreign policy on Capitol Hill for several years before moving into contract specialization here in NYC. I spent four summers as a preschool teacher working with children ages 1 to 5 and spent two years working with fourth graders, in addition to regular babysitting, and I absolutely love working with kids! I also have a year's experience as a full-time professional nanny for a single family with a toddler. Please don't hesitate to reach out to me if you have any questions about availability or would like to learn more about me as a babysitter. I am also happy to provide additional references upon request from my full-time childcare jobs, if you would like them in addition to my reviews listed here on the website. I look forward to hearing from you!

Trustworthy, patient and hard working nanny with more then +9 years experience, caring for children from newborn to school going age in many different family settings. I have worked as Friday night or Saturday night, weekend sitter, overnight, weeknights or on call sitter for some great families and looking for extra babysitting hours, short notice or part time position. I had fun traveling with families seeing some great places and having fun while working. My duties where but not limited to; making sure that the kids are bathed, ready for bed, read them stories, play board games, taking them to after school activities,provide safety, sleep training, prepare kids meals, feeding and other child related duties including some light housekeeping, dog walking, running errands and working extra hours when required.

I grew up in a large Haitian family so I've been babysitting for as long as I can remember. When my studies brought me to Hamilton College, I continued to babysit for professors and administrators alike. There I pursued an interdisciplinary major in Genetics & Social Justice with a focus on reproductive health. As part of my major, I got the opportunity to study maternal and child health in the U.S., Vietnam, South Africa, and Argentina. Living and learning in such different environments exposed me to children of all ages and backgrounds and taught me that in the absence of a shared spoken language, games are a universal language that can create a genuine connection with children all over the world. For the past 8 years, I've worked as a private tutor with elementary school-aged children and provided academic support in a variety of subjects. In addition to this, I provide semi-regular and occasional childcare services. If you'd like to book me, send me a message and I'll respond as soon as possible. Policies 1. I require a minimum of 48 hours notice if you’d like to cancel or reschedule a booking. Otherwise, I expect 50% of the payment for the booking. 2. I request a car service home for bookings ending after 8 pm. 3. I am willing to care for sick children as long as they’re not contagious, but please notify me in advance so I can plan accordingly. 4. I expect payment for the full booking even if you return home early. 5. My booking minimum is 3 hours. 6. My pricing for babysitting and private tutoring are distinct. Feel free to inquire, however, if you're interested in my pricing for tutoring services. Best wishes, Joany
