Emma New York
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Emma and I would love to be a caregiver to your wonderful kiddos! I’m a creative and imaginative personality with the inclination for caring for children. I grew up a dancer and pursuing that professionally now in the city, with the dream of being in the Ensemble of a Broadway show! I love that I can share this art and my profession with children, even teach them a few moves. I have 4+ years babysitting as well as dog sitting and I care dearly for the elderly. I’m open to several different scenarios including school pick up/drop off, after school tutoring, evening date night babysitting and so much more! I hope that I can be a part of the integral part of your children’s lives and make an impact in one way or another!

Low rate to get my first reviews! I have a Neuroscience degree from the University of Michigan, and I'm hoping to build a bigger babysitting network to supplement the income from my part-time job, which involves social media and live comedy. Don't let my lack of reviews scare you away! I'm quite normal and definitely not creepy, and I'm happy to have a quick videochat before you take the plunge and book the unreviewed (but not inexperienced for the record!!) babysitter. I have babysat and nannied extensively over the past 12 years, and am comfortable with infants up to teens. In the past I've worked as a full time fifth grade math support staff in a public school, a preschool swim instructor, and nurse aide in a dementia facility for covid lockdown. I'm very attentive! I'm rarely on my phone when I'm with kids unless it's for something that matters, like to take a cute pic of them or to call a pediatrics MD about a nonurgent health issue—which is actually quite convenient for me because my mom is one. Once I get a handful of reviews, I'll start charging more like $30-40/hr depending on the number of kids. So send a message soon—you don't want to miss these Black Friday deals!

Buket Millburn
$30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in North Arlington, NJ

Hello families! My name is Buket, I’m 27 years old and I recently completed a 2-year au pair program in the U.S., where I cared for two amazing children. Before that, I worked as an English teacher in Turkey with kids aged 2 to 12. I’m a warm, patient, and responsible person who genuinely enjoys spending time with children and helping them grow. My background in both education and childcare has helped me develop strong communication and problem-solving skills. I’m also experienced with infants — I know how to change diapers, prepare bottles and light meals, and follow nap routines. For older kids, I enjoy engaging them in creative, fun, and educational activities. I can also help with light housekeeping, laundry, and organization. In addition to childcare, I have experience as a dog sitter and am comfortable being around pets. I have strong references available from both families and host parents who can vouch for my reliability, kindness, and dedication. I look forward to meeting your family and becoming a trusted part of your child’s daily life!

Hi! I’m a marketing professional, actress, and lifelong creative who genuinely loves spending time with kids. I have a 3-year-old niece and 5-year-old nephew who are two of my favorite people, and I love being part of their adventures—whether that’s playing pretend, creating art projects, reading stories, or spending time outdoors. I’m energetic, imaginative, patient, and responsible, and I enjoy helping children feel safe, confident, and engaged. My background in creative fields has made me a natural storyteller and problem-solver, and I’m comfortable keeping up with active kids while also creating calm, structured routines when needed. Families describe me as warm, dependable, and easy to communicate with. Whether you need occasional date-night coverage, after-school help, or a reliable sitter for regular care, I’d love the opportunity to support your family.
