Find a babysitter in Maspeth, NY

I am 31-years-old with over 15 years of experience working with children! I just completed my MFA in Theater Directing at UT Austin and relocated back to Brooklyn, NY. I am passionate about reading, love art and music, and I am kind, calm, fun and reliable. Currently, I'm looking for part-time, occasional, and date night sitting in the Brooklyn area. I've worked as a long term babysitter for a family with three young children - 6-year-old twins and a 2-year-old - and as a date night sitter for children from 3 months to 10 years. Most recently, I worked for as a part-time afterschool nanny for 4-year-old twins in Brooklyn. In college, I worked as Preschool teaching assistant and have experience with Early Childhood Education and Development coursework. I've also spent three summers as a camp counselor for kids entering Kindergarten. I am CPR & First Aid certified.

I am a recent graduate from Wesleyan University, where I studied Sociology and Italian. I successfully coordinated and taught my cherished after-school enrichment program—Cardinal Kids—where I worked with students age 5 to 12. Not only was this program enrichment-focused, but I learned what it means to make an impact and be a role model for younger minds. I have always wanted to be a big sibling-esque person to someone—I am the youngest in my family, and adored having all my older siblings and cousins as role models for me. During my teenage years, I lived with my single mom, who is the most caring woman ever. She taught me everything I need to know. She cared for my Gram in her final years, and I assisted with a lot of her healthcare needs—driving to and from appointments, administering medicine/diabetes shots, cooking, cleaning, assisting mobility, etc. All that said, I am well-experienced across many areas of care. It would be my pleasure to make a difference for you, however I can. I can also offer writing and language tutoring—as well as basic science and math principles.

Hi there — I'm Amir, currently a third year law student at Columbia Law School. I was born and raised in Northern Virginia, and I graduated from George Mason University in 2018 with a BA in International Affairs. In my free time, I enjoy playing basketball in NYC's Pride Basketball League, going on runs in Central Park, and improving my novice tennis and pickleball skills with friends. My youngest sister is 11 years younger than me, so I grew up changing diapers and baby sitting from an early age. Throughout the years, in addition to baby sitting my sister and her friends, I have also baby sat younger family members who are currently between the ages of 4 months-8 years old. I also spent nearly a decade as a program director for a youth arts organization in Washington, DC which involved working with/instructing/supervising kids ages 4-15. I have lived with dogs and cats throughout my life, and I have experience with both dog and cat sitting.

Hello! My name is Lana, and I am an experienced and reliable babysitter with over ten years of childcare experience. I genuinely care for children’s well-being — both physically and emotionally. Families would describe me as engaging, patient, and warm, and my goal is to create a fun and safe environment for children to thrive. I originally came to the United States as an au pair, which expanded my prior childcare experience and gave me valuable opportunities to work with children of different ages, including caring for multiple children at once. Beyond childcare, I am happy to assist with light household tasks, homework help, meal preparation, and pet care. I am also bilingual in English and Portuguese, which I love incorporating into my time with children when appropriate. Additionally, I have working comprehension of Spanish and am also beginning to learn American Sign Language. I enjoy incorporating creative play, reading, and outdoor activities into my time with kids, and I value building trusting relationships with both children and parents. As a junior at Columbia, I am currently looking for part-time positions. I am open to occasional opportunities, but I cannot accommodate full-time positions.
