Find a babysitter in Rockaway Park, NY

Creative, reliable, patient, and understanding. I have 15+ years experience working with children of all ages. As the oldest of 15 cousins, I began babysitting early and have always loved working with kids. I spent six summers as both a counselor and Arts + Crafts Department Head at an overnight camp in New Hampshire for kids ages 8-18, and earned degrees in Elementary and Special Education from the University of Vermont. I will always treat your little ones with respect and am comfortable navigating big emotions or challenging behaviors with a cool head and a positive outlook. I love finding fun and creative ways to make mundane tasks exciting, and love learning about children's interests and personalities to help them grow into their truest selves. I can support caregiving, learning, extracurriculars, household chores... I'm happy to jump in and help make your day-to-day a little easier! I have some experience with pets (mostly cats + dogs) and while I have less experience with senior care, I am confident that I have the right demeanor and skillset to provide those services if needed. A bit more about me: I enjoy cooking, live music, art, and exploring the city as a recent transplant from Quincy, MA. I spent the past six years working for a 3D Printing startup based in Boston where I lead Workplace Experience and Diversity, Equity, Inclusion efforts. My partner's career has recently brought us to NYC, a move I have been wanting to make for quite some time now. I visited the city frequently before our move and have a large network of friends living here, so while I am a new resident I have spent substantial time here and am comfortable with basic safety and transportation routes. If I seem like a good fit for your family's needs, please reach out to chat!

I have experience watching all ages and multiple kids at one time! I currently live in Queens area but willing to travel. Please reach out for for questions

Hi! My name is Beck (she/they) and I am sitter/caregiver with 10+ years of experience. I have been a nanny/sitter in the city for over dozens of families for kids ages newborn-13 years old (including experience with twins and triplets!). I am also comfortable being a caregiver for seniors and children/adults with different abilities and special needs as I have cared for both. My prior responsibilities include driving, creative outlets (music and dance as I have a background in those), cooking, house work/cleaning, and running errands. I am also comfortable with any type of pet you may have and offer pet/house sitting as well! I look forward to meeting you and your family!

Hi! My name is Willow and I am a recent grad from NYU. I have some babysitting experience for other families in high school, but most of my experience is with my younger brother from the ages of 0-4. Responsibilities include running errands, outdoor time, crafting, cooking, cleaning the house, and bedtime. I am flexible, warm and patient. Right now I am working part time at Brooklinen, where much of my focus is on making sure people feel welcome. I love meeting new people, and work great one-on-one. Outside of customer service, my job is to maintain a clean and comfortable space. I am calm, flexible, and comfortable balancing interaction with organizational tasks. I also have dog and cat sitting experience. I have had pets my whole life- I love animals and am very comfortable with their care. I have experience with nannying for senior cats over an extended period, and am comfortable with feeding, changing litter, giving medication and playing. With my own dogs, I am comfortable walking them daily, and taking care of hygiene such as teeth brushing and hair brushing.
