Love cats! I can take care of multiple cats including ones with special needs. Happy to do overnight pet sitting if your cats need someone around more than a few minutes a day.
As a 20-year-old, I bring 4 years of experience caring for children of all ages, from toddlers to teenagers. I'm a patient, empathetic, and creative babysitter who can engage kids with drawing, crafting, music, and games. I'm comfortable helping with pets, cooking, chores, and even homework assistance. I'm eager to learn and provide a safe, nurturing environment for your family. I'd be happy to discuss my availability and any other requirements you may have.
Hi I'm Daché! I'm from the Bronx and attend at Lehman College. I offer child care and have limited availability while school is in session. What qualifies me as a great caregiver for children is that I have years of experience working in various settings (schools, camps, daycare programs) with children between the ages of 6mo-4 years. I also have personality traits that are congruent with providing great care like patience, compassion, attentiveness, and creativity. I am not currently certified in CPR but I am willing to redo it. I have also completed over 40 hours of trainings related to caring for children 0-5 years old and am happy to provide proof and references for past jobs. I am comfortable working with both dogs and cats in the home, and I can also perform light cleaning, run errands, meal prep for the child/children, etc.
Hi! My name is Polly and I recently graduated with a Bachelors of Business from the University of Canberra in Australia. Since then I have moved back home and am setting myself up again. I grew up in Brooklyn and I have been babysitting/working with kids since I was 13 years old. I have experience with kids between the ages of 1 to 12 nannying and 4 to 17 in educational environments. I am an artist. primarily photography, but I love al kinds of crafts. I also love being outside, cooking, and music. I am currently looking for just one off nightly babysitting, but am also open to a part time after school pick up for the right fit!
Creative, reliable, patient, and understanding. I have 15+ years experience working with children of all ages. As the oldest of 15 cousins, I began babysitting early and have always loved working with kids. I spent six summers as both a counselor and Arts + Crafts Department Head at an overnight camp in New Hampshire for kids ages 8-18, and earned degrees in Elementary and Special Education from the University of Vermont. I will always treat your little ones with respect and am comfortable navigating big emotions or challenging behaviors with a cool head and a positive outlook. I love finding fun and creative ways to make mundane tasks exciting, and love learning about children's interests and personalities to help them grow into their truest selves. I can support caregiving, learning, extracurriculars, household chores... I'm happy to jump in and help make your day-to-day a little easier! I have some experience with pets (mostly cats + dogs) and while I have less experience with senior care, I am confident that I have the right demeanor and skillset to provide those services if needed. A bit more about me: I enjoy cooking, live music, art, and exploring the city as a recent transplant from Quincy, MA. I spent the past six years working for a 3D Printing startup based in Boston where I lead Workplace Experience and Diversity, Equity, Inclusion efforts. My partner's career has recently brought us to NYC, a move I have been wanting to make for quite some time now. I visited the city frequently before our move and have a large network of friends living here, so while I am a new resident I have spent substantial time here and am comfortable with basic safety and transportation routes. If I seem like a good fit for your family's needs, please reach out to chat!

"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
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
