Find a babysitter in New York, NY

I started working as a mother's helper at the age of 10, and have been babysitting ever since! In high school I worked as a nanny 20 hours a week for a wonderful family with two infants, and also volunteered at Mount Washington Pediatric Hospital to ensure children separated from their parents for long periods of time were receiving the critical attention needed to develop their gross and fine motor skills. During college I worked as an occasional sitter for many different families in the D.C. area. I have been living in New York for about 5 years now and work full-time as a Copywriter at a creative agency, so I just take a few babysitting jobs each month on nights and weekend :) For five summers when I was 18-23, I worked as a counselor at Camp Onaway, a sleep-away camp for girls ages 8-15 in New Hampshire. After graduating from the University of Maryland in December 2016, I worked at a Swiss boarding school as a dorm counselor, Spanish Instructor, and as a ski instructor. In short, I LOVE hanging out with kids both younger and older! I have ample experience with newborns, infants, and toddlers, and I love kids of all ages and needs. I have babysat for children with special needs and behavioral differences, and I am always happy to accommodate any communication/behavioral/educational methods that your family prefers (though I do not have any specific certifications or training for different needs). I speak Russian and Spanish and I am happy to help children learning either language by simply speaking to them or working on certain vocabulary. I am happy to tidy the house or help out in the kitchen when babysitting, help with homework, run errands, etc. Thanks for your consideration!

Hello Families! My name is De'Ja and I’m a grad student at NYU. I am off for the summer and would love to help you with your childcare needs! I have 5 years of experience as a freelance childcare provider and I am Tedi Bear Certified. I have a bachelors in Fine Arts and 3 years of experience as a children's actor for TV and Theatre. Before starting school, I was a theatre teacher for grades 6th-12th. I have a great passion for providing education and childcare to families in need!

Glorious Day! I am Atmavidya "Adryn" Mari. I am a Bhakti Yoga practitioner who recently relocated from Houston, Texas, to New York City to teach Eastern Yogic Philosophy to high school youth. I am a certified Ayurvedic Practitioner with a B.S. in Marketing and Supply Chain Management, yet my passion resides in the cultivation of sustainable living and lifestyle choices through Bhakti Yoga. Recently, I have been using my Ayurvedic degree to support individuals and families to transition their kitchens to be more environmentally conscious with a local, whole foods focus. This is something I am enthused to speak of more and happy to integrate into my interactions with your family, if interested. I taught three years of gardening classes at Durham Elementary while living in Houston. It was a gift to witness the enthusiasm and wonder of young minds experiencing food grown through their influence. I have also tutored in English and facilitated an after school program at a middle school in Northern California. I enjoy allowing children exploratory experiences as their minds are young and shaped by engagement. I tend to give children parameters, rather than hard rules. I love reading with a cup of herbal tea or chai, taking nature walks, playing in the garden, visiting the farmer's market, meal prepping, experimental food creations, painting, coloring, embroidery and laying in the grass looking at the sky. These are all activities I am open to sharing with your child(ren). Caveat: I am a strict vegetarian, so I am unable to feed or cook with meat, eggs, or fish. Yet, my child-friendly cooking skills are on point - Mac n cheese, mashed potatoes, marinara with hidden vegetables, fruit salad, blueberry pancakes, just to name a few. My smile is contagious. I appreciate sharing hugs. I am overly honest and handle feedback well. Thank you for taking the time to read my bio and consider me as member of your success team. Looking forward to getting to know you and supporting your family, if my profile resonates. May the universe continue to share an abundance of love.

Hi! My name is Allison, and I’m currently offering childcare, pet care, and household services. I live in Cobble Hill and have been babysitting in Brooklyn through word of mouth since 2023. Over the years, I’ve built a network of 25+ families that I’ve babysat for, caring for children of all different ages and needs. I’m also happy to help with last-minute childcare requests whenever my schedule allows! I genuinely love spending time with kids and enjoy keeping them engaged with crafts, playing outside, trips to the park, reading, games, and helping with homework. I’m comfortable jumping into a family’s routine and am happy to help with whatever makes your day a little easier. I’m also available for household services, including laundry, cooking, light cleaning, organizing, and running errands. I’m a pet lover as well and am happy to care for dogs and cats. I have experience with both and would be happy to help care for your pets! I’m reliable, flexible, and happy to be a helping hand for your family, whether you need an occasional date-night sitter, or someone to step in for a last-minute request.

Hi! I am 21 years old and attend Oberlin College in Ohio where I'm studying psychology. I grew up in Brooklyn Heights and have lived here my whole life, so I am comfortable with public transportation, going to park, and other fun attractions for kids.When home on breaks, I live with my two parents, older brother, younger sister and dog. I have experience sitting for kids ages 1-9; this includes playing with them and getting them dinner together, bathing them and putting them in pjs, and reading books to put them to sleep. Sometimes I would bring my dog because one girl loved to play with him. I am allergic to dogs and cats, but I am able to work with families who have dogs that do not shed. In my free time I love to bake, paint, sew, play frisbee, and take my dog to the park. While my certification has lapsed, I have taken courses in CPR and first aid.
