Sabira $25 per hour for 1 child

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.

Hi, My name is Victoria and I was born and raised in the UK relocating to CA in 1999 where I raised my beautiful daughter Alexandra. I have lived in NYC for the past 8 years. I have many years of experience taking care of children of all ages. I am responsible, punctual, kind and patient. I thoroughly enjoy taking care of children and will always provide a safe environment for your child.

Laura $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Laura and I am so excited to get to know you and your children. I have 20 years of babysitting experience, starting when I was in middle school. I also work a 9-5 job in marketing, where I’ve built a 10-year career, but miss spending time with kids! I offer early morning and evening/night care on the weekdays, as well as anytime on weekends, for kids age 1 and up. I have extensive babysitting experience with kids ranging from six months to teenagers. I also have an almost two-year-old niece, who is just the best and has taught me so much. I love watching kids learn and also have 6+ years experience as a math and science tutor from my high school and college days, so am eager to offer my expertise there as well. I am also CPR-certified. I also offer pet care for cats. I don’t have one of my own but I have taken care of many friends’ cats when they are out of town and love the chance to snuggle and play whenever I can get it! I am also happy to help out with other household duties as needed, like grocery shopping, other errands, and organizing the apartment.

"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!"
