Find a babysitter in Ridgewood, NY

Hi! I’m Divya, a 26-year-old finance professional living in NYC. I’m available in the evenings and on weekends and I love spending time with kids and helping families out. I’ve been caring for children for many years-from keeping infants and little ones entertained with games and crafts to helping older kids with homework or getting them to activities on time. I’m happy to help with light housework, laundry, or meal prep, and I’m always up for a trip to the park or some fun, active play. Families tell me I’m energetic, caring, and easy to work with. I make it a priority to create a safe, happy, and engaging environment for kids, whether we’re cooking together, doing a puzzle, or winding down with a story. * I am CPR and First Aid certified

Hi! My name is Annie and I just graduated from the University of Virginia with my degree in nursing. I work in the city and I love to babysit in my free time!! I have lots of experience with a wide age range.

I am a reliable sitter committed to developing a trustworthy connection with the families I work with! I aim to create a fun environment for the children I care for while also being responsible and safe. I am CPR, First Aid, and AED trained. I am an experienced diaper changer and potty trainer, too! A very kind review left on another platform by a previous family I’ve worked with: "Before moving to New York, Chaslyn was a nanny/ babysitter for our family when my daughter was 3-5 years old. We miss her terribly! She is a phenomenal caregiver and person. She is incredibly responsible and dependable, and is also loving and playful. She was a bright light for us during the midst of the pandemic! My daughter (now almost 7) has such wonderful memories of that time because of Chaslyn. A family that finds her is truly lucky."

Hello! My name is Megan. I have a Bachelor's in Musical Theatre with a Communication minor. I have a vast experience working with children--I have helped with many theatre camps and productions that cast children and have been in charge of watching/ entertaining/ organizing a large group. I have a more intimate experience nannying my (almost 2!) niece from the time she was about 3 months old. I love being around kids--I love stories and music (hence my major!) and I feel at ease around children and want to make them happier and learn as much as they can!

Hi! I’m Kristin! I’m in my twenties and originally from CT, but I’ve been living in NYC since graduating from college. I work in marketing, but I’ve always loved working with children and I’d love to support your family! I’m available most weeknights and weekends. I have over 10 years of childcare experience caring for children of all ages and backgrounds. I’m energetic, engaging, and love creating fun, age-appropriate enrichment activities, while also being attentive to specific routines and preferences. For infants and toddlers, I am experienced in bottle and meal preparation/feeding, diaper changes, potty training, bath and bedtime routines, and following set schedules. For older children, I have a background in tutoring students from elementary school through college, so I’m happy to help with academic work. I’m also fluent in Spanish and ASL. I have experience caring for children with disabilities and specialized needs. I’m happy to work closely with your family to ensure consistency with therapies, behavioral strategies, sensory needs, medication schedules, and other care plans. I’m CPR/First Aid certified, fully vaccinated, a non-smoker, and I’m committed to providing a safe, reliable, and positive environment for your children. I’m also comfortable with travel, public transportation, overnights and caring for multiple children, including twins and triplets. I also have a valid driver’s license and clean driving record if transportation is needed. While the safety of your family is my top priority, I’m also happy to help with light household tasks, pet care, errands, and other family needs. I will ensure your home is clean and I will respect any house rules you have in place. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family! I’m happy to provide references, schedule an introductory call, or arrange a trial visit to ensure we are a great fit!
