Find a babysitter in East Elmhurst, NY

Hi- My name is Mercedes. I have a Master Degree in Early Childhood. As a toddler teacher, I spend my days singing silly songs, reading animated storybooks, building block towers, and turning everyday moments into fun learning adventures. I’m very familiar with routines (and how important they are!), whether it’s snack time, clean-up time, or winding down for bed. My personality is warm, patient, and playful. I’m the kind of caregiver who will happily sit on the floor to play, love story time, and celebrate even the smallest accomplishments. At the same time, I’m calm, dependable, and confident when handling big feelings or tricky moments. I have experience caring for multiple children at once, planning engaging activities, and creating a safe, nurturing environment where kids feel comfortable and happy. Most importantly, I treat every child like they are my own.

I am a dedicated, responsible, and caring person with over 5 years of experience working directly with children of different ages. I enjoy creating a welcoming and fun environment where they can feel safe and stimulated. I am patient and attentive to each child’s individual needs. I have strong references and am available to talk. In addition to childcare, I can also assist with basic household tasks, especially those related to the children, such as meal preparation, tidying up play areas, and helping with their daily routines. In my free time, I enjoy reading, listening to music, spending time outdoors, and being with family and friends. I also appreciate creative activities such as crafts and cooking, which I often incorporate into play and activities with children.

Hey. I’m not gonna lie but this is my first babysitting job (officially). I’ve taken care of both my siblings. I have taken care kids in my neighbourhood from infants to upto 10 year olds. Changing diapers, preparing food based on needs, feeding, playing, teaching, walks, games, you name it haha. I have experience taking care of seniors & have taken care of seniors with dementia and trouble walking. I’m a registered pet sitter at care.com as well. As far as pets go I don’t have experience training but I can walk, dropin and sit. I do work from home in IT but that will never affect me providing amazing care because my job is super lowk and I barely have to pick up my laptop, i mostly just respond to emails haha. I’m sure your little ones will be interested in a software engineer does too haha

Hi! I’m Taylor, I’m 21 years old, going into my 4th year at Parsons School of Design, living in the East Village. Growing up in California I babysat for several families with children of different age ranges. I developed a love for children and being able to help families! I’m always happy to be an extra set of hands around the house and help families wherever needed. Addition to babysitting, my first job was a gymnastics coach for kids of all ages. In my free time I enjoy reading, working out, and going on long walks to enjoy the city!

Hi families! I have over 17 years of experience working with children and creating safe, supportive, and engaging environments. I’m CPR certified, lifeguard certified, and have spent the past 10 years teaching swim lessons to children of all ages, which has strengthened my patience, communication skills, and ability to stay calm in emergencies. I also have experience as an overnight camp counselor, supervising children, supporting routines, and ensuring their safety and well-being. I enjoy building meaningful connections with kids while being reliable, attentive, and someone families can feel comfortable trusting with their care.
