Booked by 8 families in Ozone Park, NY

Hi, my name is Mashiyat and I have been working with kids since I was 16 and have always enjoyed it. I worked my summers in high school at a science and engineering camp where I was a counselor for ages 5-7. I became early education and care certified in college when I was a teaching assistant for the on campus daycare primarily as an infant/toddler daycare teacher. In addition to providing direct care for the babies in my classroom, I also have experience working with infants as a medical assistant for a pediatrician’s office and worked directly with families at a children’s hospital to enroll them into clinical trials. Although I have mostly worked with infants and toddlers, I also have experience with kids of all age groups from summer camp or other previous babysitting positions.

Booked by 5 families in Ozone Park, NY

Hi, my name is Melissa and I'm currently a student at Hunter College. I'm offering child care, pet care, and household services. I have experience with children of different ages, from toddlers to older kids. I enjoy keeping them engaged through fun activities like arts and crafts, reading, and outdoor play. I'm comfortable with following routines, and making sure kids are safe and happy. I love animals and have experience caring for dogs, I can walk, feed, play, and give them lots of attention. I can also help around the house with light cleaning, laundry, errands, and organization. I'm responsible, dependable, and easy to get along with, and I always try to create a positive and supportive environment wherever I work.

Melissa was wonderful. My daughter (4) loved playing with her and keeps asking her to come back. Highly recommend!

Hi— I’m Jayla, a child enthusiast who loves to find the creative side in everyday things. I studied biology in undergrad at Western Michigan University and decided to walk the untraditional path of pursuing my creative ideas as they come through. I love working with children as a way to relive the best experiences of my childhood. I come from a large family with many nieces and nephews and love to stay active indoors and out. I love to share the fun facts I’ve retained over the years and consider myself a fairy, finding the beauty in every day things but mostly nature. I am CPR certified and have been a babysitter and caregiver to families in New York, Michigan and Ohio throughout high school and college. I enjoy being around all animals and especially cats and dogs. I’ve worked with children, toddlers, and teenagers ages infant-14 but have more experience with infants- 3yo. I would love to connect with local families to tutor and babysit. Hope to hear from you soon!

Emily Jane Brooklyn
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Emily and I am a house manager and nanny and I love my job! I have four years of full-time experience in childcare, providing attentive and professional care to children of various ages. Beyond traditional babysitting, I have also worked as a personal assistant, managing household and family-related tasks with efficiency and discretion. I have also just completed a year training and working as a co-teacher at a nature-based preschool. Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to work with high-profile clients, in the entertainment industry and know how to be discreet and professional. Before nannying I worked in the entertainment industry and know the protocols for being on set or in a professional environment. My responsibilities have included creating engaging and educational activities, maintaining daily routines, assisting with schoolwork, coordinating schedules, and handling errands to support the family's needs. My experience has given me strong organizational skills, excellent communication, and the ability to multitask effectively. Whether managing a child’s day-to-day activities or ensuring a household runs smoothly, I bring professionalism, warmth, and reliability to every role.
