Ellie $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Ellie and I am a senior at Fordham University majoring in psychology and English. I have been babysitting since I was 15 and would love to take care of your kids :)) In the past, I've made simple meals for kids, picked them up from school, walked them to parks, playdates, and restaurants, and have spent all day hanging out with them! I'm also happy to help organize your home or run errands. I (sadly) have no pets at school, but I have a dog at home and LOVE cats, so I'd be more than happy to meet and care for your pets too!

Miranda $22 per hour for 1 child

I have been babysitting since I was 14years old and love kids! I volunteered in the nursery (ages 1 through 4) at my church all four years of high school. In addition, while in college I nannied for two years. I have continued to babysit post graduation as much as I can! I was an early learners tutor at Kumon and taught swimming to kids ages 2 and up. So in addition to Babysitting, I’m well equipped to help with homework and provide swimming lessons!

Katherine $28 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Kat and I’m a grad student at NYU. I am an enthusiastic and experienced baby sitter eager to meet your family. I love working with kids and believe with a conscious balance of exuberance and structure I can provide your household with a memorable and smooth experience. I’m a firm believer in “getting on a kid’s level” literally and figuratively and my utmost priority is always your child’s safety. At the end of the day I want to make sure your kid has a blast! I love baking, singing, dancing and most of all storytelling (I’m an actor when I’m not hanging out with kiddos) so there will be never a dull moment. I am CPR certified and have over ten years of experience with newborns, infants, toddlers and school age children. I’m comfortable with animals of all shapes and sizes and am happy to perform light housekeeping.

Booked by 2 families in Ridgefield Park, NJ

Hi! I’m Ellie, originally from Memphis, TN but I just moved to NYC a few months ago. I’ve been nannying and babysitting for years, and I also worked as an overnight camp counselor for three summers, so I’m very comfortable with kids of all ages. I’m super responsible but also love having fun, whether that’s playing outside, doing crafts, or just keeping kids entertained. I’m also a big pet lover and happy to help with things around the house like cleaning up, errands, or walking the dog.

Highly Recommend Ellie (Isabelle) She was punctual, communicative, friendly and my daughter loved her! Will work with her again
