Alexa $22 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Alexa and I’m a responsible, caring, and reliable babysitter with a genuine love for working with children. I enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where kids feel comfortable and happy. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on each child’s individual needs. I love engaging children in age-appropriate activities such as arts and crafts, reading, games, and outdoor play, while always prioritizing their safety and well-being. Families describe me as trustworthy, warm, and easy to communicate with. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident and at ease when leaving their children in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I would love the opportunity to support your family and care for your little ones!

Hi, my name is Adriana and I am an elementary school teacher on the Upper East Side. I just finished my 6th year of teaching and I have experience teaching 3rd-5th grade. My experience with working with children ages 4-14 dates back to when I was in high school when I taught dance classes at my dance studio.

Caitlyn $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Hoboken, NJ

Hi! My name is Caitlyn , I am 22 years old, and I have recently moved to California from New York. My love for working with children started when I was around 8 years old when my mother opened her own preschool. Since she opened her school I spent as much time as I could there, helping every summer during summer camps, brainstorming new craft ideas, and helping her make sure each day was fun and exciting for the children. Through working with her for years I was able to get babysitting jobs for a variety of families. I used my knowledge of fun activities, crafts, and games from working at the preschool to make sure every time I was a sitter was a fun time for the kids. I have always loved the way children keep me on my toes and keep me curious about the world. I currently live in North Hollywood, I have a very flexible schedule, and have a car!
