Phoebe $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Nutley, NJ

Hello! My name is Phoebe, and I'm currently based in Manhattan. Prior to moving to NYC, I lived in Colorado, where I studied Sociology at CU Boulder. I love working with kids, and have experiences nannying with all ages. I've worked as a camp counselor for many years, so I'm pretty handy when it comes to outdoor games and activities! I also love to cook, and love getting kids involved in cooking, crafts, and other fun activities. I am happy to help with Travel, Housekeeping, and Cooking!

Michelle $20 per hour for 1 child

I am an animal advocate and love them dearly. I am a special education teacher. I have my own animals and bring animals into my classroom and they are wonderful additions to my classroom and my students. I have rescued over 45 bunnies all different breeds and found them loving homes. I have personally fostered kittens, guinea pigs and bottle fed different types of birds. I have experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds (parakeets, love birds, green cheek conures and cockatiels). When I was in high school I worked in an exotic pet store. I will treat your babies as I treat mine with love and care. I treat my animals as if they were my children. If you would like to schedule a meeting please contact me.[removed]. Please ask me any questions. I am also fingers printed. Thank you for reading my bio, Michelle

Fei fei $30 per hour for 1 child

I’m a responsible, organized, and dependable professional based in the West Village. I work full-time in corporate operations during the week and am specifically looking for weekend opportunities to help local families with childcare, pet care, and household support. I’ve also been a Wag! dog walker and pet caregiver since 2019, giving me several years of experience caring for pets of different sizes, personalities, and needs. I enjoy working with families because it gives me a chance to step away from my typical workweek, do something more hands-on, and spend my time helping others in a way that feels rewarding. I studied psychology and graphic design, and I especially enjoy creative activities, staying active, and spending time with kids. I’m primarily available Saturdays and Sundays and would love to find a family I can help regularly or occasionally. I’m reliable, communicative, organized, and happy to help make your weekends a little easier.

Charlet $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Charlet! I’m originally from Portland and now a student at Fordham University here in NYC. I’ve spent the last five years caring for children from infants to age 16 through babysitting as well as some full-time nannying. Caring for kids comes naturally to me, I love to help create a warm, clean, calm, and fun environment where young people feel safe, encouraged, and excited to explore. I’m confident with daily routines, including cleaning, meals, naps, school pickups/dropoffs, bedtime, and playtime. I value clear, consistent communication with parents and always strive to support whatever rhythm works best for your family. I’m CPR certified, reliable, and truly enjoy forming long-lasting, trusting relationships with the families I work with. I’d be happy to provide references, and I’d love to connect with you and your family.

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
