My name is Guadalupe but you can call me Lulu (: I am 27 years old, graduated from Columbia University (CC’20), and now work in the non-profit field (LinkedIn:[removed] I’ve been working directly with kids in NY for about 5 years and help connect them to various educational resources. I mainly work with kids between 1st-10th grade, some of who have learning differences such as ADHD, autism, etc. Additionally, I have a lot of experience tutoring various academic subjects and Regents tests, as well.

Hi! My name is Sofia, and I’m going into my junior year at Caldwell University, where I’m a student-athlete on the women’s basketball team. I’m responsible, reliable, and love working with kids of all ages. I come from a big, close-knit family and have been taking care of my younger cousins and family members for as long as I can remember. Spending time with kids has always come naturally to me, and I truly enjoy helping them learn, grow, and have fun. (I also have two cats and a dog.) As a college athlete, I’m energetic, patient, and know how to keep children engaged while making sure they’re always safe. I’ve consistently been on the Dean’s List at Caldwell University and am a member of the National Honor Society, so I’m also happy to help with homework, studying, and creating positive learning habits while making schoolwork feel less stressful. My responsibilities have included driving children to and from camps, practices, sports, and other activities, planning arts and crafts, playing at the playground, helping with homework, and organizing fun games and activities. Since I play college basketball, I especially love staying active with kids through sports, outdoor play, and anything that keeps them moving and having fun. I’m flexible, dependable, and understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can trust. Whether it’s helping with busy after-school schedules, keeping little ones entertained, or simply being another caring and positive role model, I’m always happy to help however I can. I look forward to meeting your family! 😊
Hi, I’m Nadia! Nice to meet you :) I’m a 27 year old publishing professional with a Bachelors in Biomedical Science and Masters in Public Health. I have over 15 years of and childcare experience (the family business!), covering infant nannying, homework help, 1-1 tutoring, school runs and busy Montessori settings and housekeeping. I have a warm and bubbly personality, and a childcare philosophy rooted in openness and encouragement, whilst maintaining clear and safe boundaries. I’m also a huge champion of books and learning, so always seeking opportunities to spend time nurturing a love of books in the younger generations! I truly adore and am comfortable working and bonding with children of all ages. I am comfortable with dogs and cats (love them actually!) Please do reach out with any questions; I am happy to work flexibly to suit your families needs!
Hi there! I'm Valerie, a graduate student and experienced sitter in South Slope. I'm currently pursuing my Master's in Art History at Hunter College. This past spring, I graduated from Wesleyan University with a B.A. in Art History (and with High Honors, induction into Phi Beta Kappa, and Departmental Awards). I was born and raised in New York. I'm available for occasional work during the week, including evening babysitting, dog sitting, house sitting, and help with cleaning and home organization. I have experience working with toddlers and school-aged children. I am 92NY certified for babysitting. I also have plenty of experience with dog and cat sitting. I grew up immersed in the arts -- especially visual art and theater -- and am a classically trained pianist. I'm happy to help kids practice piano or assist with homework, particularly in humanities-related subjects. Happy to answer any questions!

"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!"
Hillary S., parent
