Hi- My name is Taisha and I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I love being a babysitter, as the oldest of my family I have been watching my siblings and cousins as well as newborns, infants and toddlers, since I was 14 years old. My responsibilities have included drop off and pick up/from school, crafts, tutoring, and teaching. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands. I have been a caretaker for my own grandparents I can cook, accompany them to appointments, or do other tasks. I am allergic to dogs.
“Taisha is reliable, punctual, and professional. I was worried that my dad would not be comfortable having someone other than myself help him during the day, but he had the best things to say.”
Hi, I'm May, a 22 year old college student living on the upper west side of Manhattan. I have been babysitting since I was 12 and absolutely adore kids. I am experienced with children from newborns to elementary schoolers. I am super crafty and creative and can buckle down and help kids with serious work and school work. I love helping to unlock kids' imaginations and intellectual sides as well. Your kids will never be bored with me and I can always find something to do that is productive. I love cooking and baking and have been doing both since I can remember so I have quite a few creative snack ideas up my sleeve. Again, I love spending time with kids and I absolutely love babies. I am CPR certified and Red Cross trained. Safety is my priority so I can assure that I am Covid-19 vaccinated. Feel free to reach out to me about anything! I can't wait to take care of your child!

Hi! I’m Divya, a 26-year-old finance professional living in NYC. I’m available in the evenings and on weekends and I love spending time with kids and helping families out. I’ve been caring for children for many years-from keeping infants and little ones entertained with games and crafts to helping older kids with homework or getting them to activities on time. I’m happy to help with light housework, laundry, or meal prep, and I’m always up for a trip to the park or some fun, active play. Families tell me I’m energetic, caring, and easy to work with. I make it a priority to create a safe, happy, and engaging environment for kids, whether we’re cooking together, doing a puzzle, or winding down with a story. * I am CPR and First Aid certified
