Hi! My name is Mary Kate! I am a 27 year old nanny and clinical mental health counseling graduate student with 5 years of professional childcare experience. I offer childcare and pet sitting services! I have worked with children ages 6 months- 11 years and multiples. I am able to help with meal prep, errand running, toilet training, homework help, laundry and other light housekeeping. I have 3 years of experience working as a preschool/kindergarten teacher. This has further strengthened my love of children and ability to work with them in a growth oriented way. I hold a college degree in psychology and early childhood education. I am also currently working towards my master’s in mental health counseling. I will bring my knowledge of child development and social emotional learning to my care. I can develop age appropriate activities to help your kiddos become the best versions of themselves! I also have experience with both cat and dog sitting.

$30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Fairview, NJ

Hi! My name is Lourdes, I am looking for one time + part time babysitting gigs for now - onward. Happy to discuss my available hours! Since September 2021, I have experience with kids from 3 months - 14 years old. I also have extensive experience with pet + house sitting (cats and dogs). For my longest term gig, from December 2021 - February 2023 I was a part-time nanny for a family in the West Village with 3 children (ages 6-12) and supported with tasks such as school pick up, meal prep, bedtime, packing, homework assistance, emotional support, ubering around, light housekeeping, and traveled with them internationally. Whilst working with them, I also was able to develop relationships with other families within their school community, a total of 6 other families who would be able to, and to this day, ask for help when needed. I've been described as fun, creative, crafty, and very quick on my feet, I'm a great multitasker. I've also been described as the family "vibe checker", I'm always looking to brighten up the energy in a room. I am currently in school full time to finish my BA in Film Production and Classical / Latin Studies. I speak fluent Italian and Spanish, and am developing a career as an actor and film producer. I am a big advocate for the arts and would love to share my love for reading / painting / singing with whomever I'm babysitting. Additionally, I am an entrepreneur running my social media marketing agency during the day. I’m also the oldest of four sisters, if that’s any reassurance, and have also done school drop off, pick up, and meal prep with them. I love cooking and am also comfortable tidying up with dishes and meal prep. My Linkedin is the same as my name here. Happy to provide references. Hope to meet you soon!

Lourdes is everything you could want in a sitter. She’s communicative, flexible and fun. She started babysitting for me when I was a new mom and nervous about leaving my baby with someone who wasn’t a family member and now it’s hard for me to leave my kids with anyone else! We love Lourdes! Highly recommend!

Booked by 2 families in Fairview, NJ

Hello, my name is Jacqueline (but I usually go by my nickname Tula), I’m 23 and a recent graduate of Wellesley College. I have over 8 years of babysitting experience in NYC, as well as some in the Boston area, watching children from three months to thirteen years old. I have three younger siblings and have spent much of my time at home watching them. I’m very familiar with babies and younger kids, especially babysitting multiple children at a time. I’ve taken an online Red Cross babysitting and first aid certification course as well as first aid programs through Boy Scouts that I completed to earn Eagle Scout. Thank you for your consideration!

Jacqueline was wonderful with our toddler son. She played and read to him and entertained him for several hours. She is extremely patient and sweet with kids!

Sofia $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Sofia, and I recently graduated from Syracuse University with a Bachelor of Science in Nutrition Science and Biology. I am currently pursuing my Master’s degree in Human Nutrition at Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons, with plans to attend medical school in the next two years. I have a strong passion for women’s health and preventative medicine, and I truly enjoy caring for and supporting others. Beyond academics, I’ve grown up in a large family surrounded by children, which made babysitting second nature to me. I have years of babysitting experience throughout high school and college, and nothing brings me more joy than spending time with kids and supporting them through their most important developmental years. I am CPR certified, trained in emergency healthcare, and fluent in Spanish as a dual citizen of Spain. In my free time, I love dancing, taking long walks, spending time outdoors, traveling, and exploring new restaurants and coffee shops. I look forward to bringing energy, responsibility, and warmth to the families I work with!

Janett 1 review
$23 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Fairview, NJ

Hi there! My name is Janett, and I’m a proud graduate of Lehman College with a degree in Recreational Therapy and a minor in Art. I bring creativity, compassion, and reliability into every role I take on. I provide child care, senior care, and household support and I truly love what I do. I’ve been caring for children since I was 19, from newborns to school aged kids. My experience includes school pick ups and drop offs, tutoring, arts and crafts, dancing, and creating fun, engaging activities that help kids learn and grow. Parents trust me because I’m responsible, patient, and always focused on making sure children feel safe and supported. I also have extensive experience caring for seniors. I was a caregiver for my grandmother and worked in several assisted living facilities and nursing homes, where I learned the importance of dignity, empathy, and reliability in senior care. On top of that, I can help with day to day household needs. I cook, clean, run errands, and am an expert at navigating the MTA. I’m known for being punctual, organized, and a strong problem solver. I’m also very pet friendly! Having lived with four dogs and a cat at once, I’m comfortable caring for animals alongside my other responsibilities. If you’re looking for someone dependable, warm, and versatile, I’d love to bring my skills and passion to support your family’s needs.

Janett was great. She helped out in a pinch and my two kids enjoyed her and asked if she could sit for us again.
