Find a babysitter in Jackson Heights, NY

Hi there! I'm Kendall, a date-night sitter with 20 years of experience. While I appreciate your interest, I have no availability for full-time, part-time jobs or jobs during the day, because I have a 9-5 job as a product manager. Fully vaccinated (boosted Dec 2021, Oct 2022). Specialties: date nights, travel sitting (in hotels and Airbnbs), ages newborn to 3 I absolutely love working with kids. I started babysitting when I was 11 years old as a mother's helper for a family on my block, and kept babysitting for several families all through high school. I have experience with kids of all ages, from 6 week old newborns to 12 year old middle schoolers. I used to lead a dance company for kids with physical disabilities, so I am big on movement as well! If it's nice out, I also love taking kids outside to play. I have experience working with kids who have autism and Down syndrome. I have worked on UrbanSitter on and off since 2014, and have had the opportunity to work with so many amazing families. I understand the hesitation in booking a babysitter online, but I've found great relationships and mentors in many of the families I've sat for. Thanks for reading and I'd be happy to talk with you soon.

Hi there! My name is Aidan. I am 24 years old, I finished my Culture and Arts degree at Fordham last year, am pursuing working in the performing arts, work in the Theatre Industry, and am looking for some babysitting gigs to earn some extra money in this new chapter of life! I grew up mainly in SF, but have lived in NYC for half my life (I spent the first part of my childhood in Brooklyn), so I am great with city kids as I am one! I have so much passion for working with kids (I have tons of classroom experience) and really think I could be a great fit for your family if you gave me a chance! - Why do I babysit? - 1. I love kids! I grew up in a big family as the oldest child on all sides so I have been helping take care of little ones for most of my life. 2. I have a passion for working with kids! I have in the classroom experience which has given me tons of childhood development skills and babysitting lets me use them! 3. I strive to be a positive male role model in all children’s lives. I grew up with girls and loved doing arts and crafts, make believe, dolls, etc… As a boy I love to rough house, run around, and play games. Anything a female babysitter can bring to the table, I can too! - My Background - I have been working with kids for 10 years as an After School Teacher, Nanny, Babysitter and Camp Counselor. I am certified in CPR/First Aid and have training in Child Abuse Prevention. Additionally, I have in-the-classroom experience which has enabled me to become very familiar with current educational standards and would be an excellent assistant to your child's homework needs. More importantly though, that knowledge helps me be more relatable to them as I understand what they’re currently experiencing at school! I have a background in performing arts, which you will find allows for pretty awesome story-times and games. We theatre kids have a ton of energy and I am no exception to this. I can keep up with all the energy your kids have and then some. I am a good listener and am flexible and willing to do just about anything a family needs of me. At the end of the day, the most important thing to me is to make sure your children are safe and happy, and that you as parents are satisfied with my care. I know it is uncommon to hire men in this field, but I promise you that you will not regret hiring me and I would be more than happy to provide as many references as you want! Let me know if you think I could be a good match for your family!

Hi! My name is Nisa. I am currently working as a part time nanny, but I have been a babysitter for over 15 years and I have loved every minute of it. I am a recreational ballet dancer who enjoys puzzles and painting. I am also extremely creative and I love coming up with new and fun adventures for kids to enjoy. I hate for children to be bored, so I like to do arts and crafts projects, read and sing to them, play card and board games, pretend play, bake with them, and go to the park. I even have a recipe for homemade play dough! I have also been an after school teacher for children, grades K-5 and I am currently studying to become a Newborn Care Specialist. I have worked with infants, toddlers, and pre-teens and I love connecting with each child on their level. I am naturally drawn to children which is why I love to spend time with them and be a part of their lives. I formerly worked as a cook and baker so I don't mind cooking and baking for/with the kids as well. I am currently CPR/First Aid certified and I have excellent references. Hopefully, I will be a great fit for your family. I look forward to meeting you! ** Please message me for my rates for any HOUSEHOLD SERVICES.
