Hi! My name is Michelle Rios, I’m 21 years old and currently a student at Fordham University in New York City. I was born in Boston and raised in Colombia, and I speak both English and Spanish fluently. I have been babysitting since high school and have experience caring for children ranging from infants who require diaper changes and feeding routines to children around 7 years old. I also have experience babysitting for families in NYC with children ages 1–7. In addition to babysitting, I have helped children with reading, writing, and schoolwork through tutoring and daycare-related activities. I genuinely love working with kids and creating a safe, caring, and engaging environment for them. I’m very patient, responsible, organized, and energetic, and I always aim to make children feel comfortable and supported. I also love cooking and baking, and I’m happy to help families however I can. Families would describe me as dependable, warm, and trustworthy, and I always treat every child with care and attention as if they were my own family.

Hi! I’m Emily I’m patient, creative, and love spending time with kids. I enjoy baking fun treats, doing arts and crafts, helping with homework, and creating positive routines.

I’m bilingual (English & Spanish) and love creating a warm, supportive environment where children feel safe and happy.

Hi! My name is Eliza and I am currently earning my masters in social work at Columbia University. I graduated from Northeastern with a bachelors in psychology and human services in 2021 and have nearly a decade of babysitting experience. I am energetic, warm, and organized. From homework help, to pick ups and drop offs, to games and art projects, I am up for all the things! I have experience with multiple children at once (up to 8), infants, and children with physical and intellectual disabilities. I can provide references upon request!

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.
