Hi! My name is Josephine. I'm originally from Portland, Oregon, but recently graduated from Boston College in May, and moved to New York City in June! I've been babysitting since middle school and have the most experience caring for toddlers and school-age children, though I'm happy to work with kids of any age. I'm incredibly responsible, organized, and dependable, and I always strive to create a safe and fun environment for the children I care for. In addition to childcare, I'm happy to help around the house with cooking, cleaning, laundry, dog walking, and other household tasks. I also speak French and a little Spanish, and I'm glad to help with homework or provide extra academic support when needed. A little about me: I love spending time outdoors, exploring New York, and visiting art museums. Whether we're doing crafts, playing outside, reading books, or helping with homework, I enjoy finding activities that keep kids engaged and having fun. I'd love the opportunity to meet your family and help however l can!
Hi! My name is Olivia and I am currently a first year grad student at NYU. I have been a montessori preschool and kindergarten teacher for the past 5 years as well as a babysitter and nanny for much longer. In addition to that experience I have also been director of a summer camp for the past 4 years. I have worked with children ages 1 year to 12 years and love working with multiples (I currently work with three siblings). I can cook, clean, assist with homework, navigate travel to other activities, and I love playing games and doing crafts! I am very comfortable helping with animals and doing household chores and errands.
Hello families! I'm Sabira, your go-to babysitter! Growing up in a bustling house with lots of nieces and nephews aged 6 months to 18 years old has been the best training ground for my passion in childcare. I started my babysitting journey at 17 and I have accumulated experience through various paid babysitting jobs. I can adapt to the unique needs of children from different age groups. Whether it's assisting with homework, playdates, or arts and crafts, l'm here to make every moment memorable. In addition, I have a sister with special needs, so l am well-versed in providing the extra care and attention that special needs children often require. Certified in first aid and CPR, I prioritize safety while ensuring punctuality and fun! Whether it's school pickups, mealtime, or playing, your child's happiness and well-being are always my top priorities. Feel free to reach out—I'm just a message away.

“Carter was fantastic, on time, very polite with a great personality. We ended up staying out later than expected and she had no issue staying late. She seemed to be able to get our girl to bed with less trouble than we’ve had lately. We highly recommend Carter as a babysitter ”

"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!"
