Meng $30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in College Point, NY

Hello! My name is Meng. I am an international student and have been living in New York for five years. I’m an energetic, cheerful person, and kids usually enjoy spending time with me. While I don’t have formal childcare experience, I’ve always gotten along very well with children and love interacting with them. In addition to that, I have three dogs and one cat, so I’m very comfortable caring for pets. I also enjoy cooking and have five years of experience preparing meals from different cuisines. I’m a careful and detail-oriented person, and I believe these qualities make me well-suited for childcare, pet care, and other caregiving tasks. I look forward to meeting your family!

Reina $25 per hour for 1 child

I am an energetic and caring mother of three with extensive experience caring for children from infants to age 12. I am comfortable multitasking, open to nanny shares, and enjoy caring for multiple children. I also have seven years of experience as a lifeguard and children’s swim coach, so water safety is a top priority for me. I have a very flexible schedule, can drive, and am often available for last-minute or evening support. I’d be happy to help your family!

Ashley $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Ashley, and I am a 23-year-old Northwestern University graduate who has extensive experience in child care. As a previous full-time camp coordinator, tutor, children's dance instructor, and theatrical performer for young audiences, I love engaging with children and meeting them where they are at. I am very experienced with NYC public transportation, so I am able to do pick-ups and drop-offs at school, extracurriculars, playdates, etc. I am also super organized and clean, so taking care of household tasks is a plus!

Sofia $25 per hour for 1 child

My name is Sofia, I'm 24 years old and I've been babysitting since I was 15 years old. I absolutely love children and animals, and can't wait to have children of my own some day. I graduated from Scripps College during Spring 2023. The families I have babysat for in the past describe me as kind, loving, responsible, communicative, and encouraging. I grew up abroad and babysat for an American family twice a week in high school, ages 6 and 10; I babysat a family friend's 4 year old over the summer when I was 17 years old; and most recently, I was a regular babysitter for a family in California as a college student, ages 5 and 8. I am half Japanese/half Russian and feel very comfortable in multicultural familial environments. I like to connect with children as my equal, while maintaining a responsible and trusting relationship. I also have grown up around animals and have experience pet/house sitting. I love to cook for myself and would be happy to cook nutritious and delicious meals for your children! I am happy to meet your family's needs, whether this involves children, animals, or cleaning duties/errands. I look forward to speaking with you soon!
