Find an emergency babysitter in Hoboken, NJ

Hi, I’m Lucia! Brooklyn has been my home for over a decade, though I’m originally from California. As the eldest of three and the first grandchild among 30 cousins, I’ve been caring for children of all ages for as long as I can remember. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of looking after wonderful kids, ages 1.5–16, and many families have told me I became their child’s favorite sitter—the highest compliment I could hope for! I love getting to know each child’s unique personality and tailoring activities to what excites them most—whether that’s baking cookies, arts & crafts, reading stories, or spending time outdoors. My focus is always to keep little ones safe, happy, and engaged. Families describe me as punctual, kind, patient, fun, and fully present. Please feel free to check my references—they’re filled with kind words from families I’ve had the privilege to work with. I would be honored to care for your child and create a nurturing, playful space where they can thrive. I look forward to connecting! Warmly, Lucia

Hi! I'm Isabelle, am 29 years old and live in NYC. I have an AA in Art and a BA in Politics. I work as a case manager/community organizer at a food pantry on the UES. I used to babysit during college and always enjoyed it which is why I still occasionally enjoy picking up some gigs here or there :) I grew up in Germany with an American mother, a German father, and am the oldest of 4 siblings. I'm fluent in both German and English and have worked with bilingual kids in both a nanny and teaching environment. After graduating from HS in Germany and professionally working in the performing arts growing up, I was interested in working socially with families and kids who were less fortunate/had special needs. In the summer of 2015, I started an art+living project in Germany with kids and families who had fled their countries. In 2016, I became part of a therapeutic horse farm that focused on working with kids with special needs. I was the outdoor teacher and leader of an inclusive forest group consisting of 5-7 children aged 4-10 years old. Upon moving to the USA in 2017, I worked as a teacher at the Seattle Waldorf School and absolutely ❤️ it. In the summer of 2022, I worked with kids in Ukraine+Poland, primarily teaching or working with mothers and babies. I've been working with runaway homeless youth at places such as The Door and The Ali Forney Center for the past several years. Working with kids has always brought me joy and kept me grounded during hectic times. I nannied during undergrad and, while I have experience with children of all age ranges, I have primarily worked with infants and babies during their first year of life. I have experience with night-nannying, sleep training, feeding, and multiples. For those of you with older kids, bedtime routine is no problem either as I have had many longer term after-school gigs as well. I am confident in navigating the city responsibly, including school pick-up, and use of public transit. As a nanny, I'd describe myself as relaxed, punctual, reliable, flexible, confident, reasonable, communicative, consistent and dedicated. I very much enjoy working with families of different backgrounds, and I am absolutely LGBTQ+ family-friendly, being part of one myself. I can provide references and am happy to answer any further questions. I'm vaccinated and CPR trained. ⭐️ When I'm not nannying, I am playing soccer, going for a run, cheering on the WNBA+ NWSL, going out with friends or staying in with my books.

Hi, thank you for taking the time to check out my profile! I graduated from college in 2024 and am currently working full-time at a law firm. I have lots of experience working with children (infants as young as 2 months old to 11 years old) whether it be through nannying, volunteer organizations, summer camps, and in the classroom. Currently, I babysit for one year old twins (have been babysitting since they have been four months!) and two toddlers that are four and two. Lastly, I grew up swimming competitively up until my senior year of high school (and have coaching experience) so am also comfortable at the swimming pool. I am available in the evenings and anytime during the weekend. I look forward to hearing from you!

Hello, my name is Iva; I am a 25-year-old NYU student (History/Econ Major), born in Zagreb, Croatia, and my favorite color is blue. I have been babysitting for the past three years, not including taking care of my sister, who is 10 years my junior. I have extensive experience with boys and girls ages 4 and up, and am competent with after school pickups and transport to activities, homework help, cooking, light housekeeping, and house sitting. Areas of homework help I am most comfortable with are History and English. I am currently looking for part-time, after-school work; I am flexible with travel, hourly rates, and date-night babysitting.

Hi! My name is Tess and I am a student at Fordham University. I am offering babysitting, pet care and household chore services. I have been a babysitter since I was twelve, starting as a mother's helper and onwards from there. My responsibilities included driving to and from school, helping with homework, sports and activites, putting the kiddos to bed, and overall general home care. I have worked with ages 1-14, as a babysitter, camp counselor and nanny. As a sociology major, I hope to start a career in early education! I am happy to help with any animals, as a cat and dog lover myself. I'm currently working with a range of ages, from 1-14 but am happy to help with younger or older.
