Lilly $25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Bronx, NY

Hello, I'm Lilly ! At Marymount Manhattan College, I am a junior majoring in Psychology and minoring in Dance. I was born and raised in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, where I also worked as a counselor, mentor, and choreographer for children all around the Seacoast. I worked at local youth theater organizations including Upside Arts and Musical Arts where I have taken on some of these roles. I have also been babysitting on and off since I was 15 for adolescents of all ages ranging from 1-6 years old. I would contribute my optimistic and diligent attitude. Ensuring the comfort and safety of my child/children in their surroundings is a top priority for me. In order to make my child/children’s experience memorable, I will use my creativity and leadership abilities to make sure they engage in every activity. I am excited to get started and get to know the children I will be connecting with in the future.

Hi, my name is Adriana and I am an elementary school teacher on the Upper East Side. I just finished my 6th year of teaching and I have experience teaching 3rd-5th grade. My experience with working with children ages 4-14 dates back to when I was in high school when I taught dance classes at my dance studio. I also worked as a camp counselor at a 7 week sleep away camp in Maine for three summers during college. I love babysitting and tutoring kids between the ages of 4 and 14.

Victoria $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Victoria and I’m a recent college graduate work in banking, but I have always had a passion for working with children. My main goals will always be to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for every child. Over the years, I’ve gained 2-3 years of experience through babysitting for family and friends, as well as volunteering at local elementary schools as well working at a day care for 2 years. I also am a soccer coach for kids ages 5-8! I’m responsible, patient, and enjoy engaging children in creative activities like arts and crafts, reading, and outdoor play. I also understand the importance of following routines, offering emotional support, and ensuring safety at all times. I look forward to the opportunity to support your family and provide a caring and reliable experience for your children or pets! Please feel free to reach out with any questions or to discuss how I can be of help!

Caitlin $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi there, my name is Caitlin! I'm 24 and have been living in the city for the past two years, but am originally from Wisconsin. I went to university for Entertainment and Marketing, and now I work in Film and Television PR during the day, however I am looking to pick up more babysitting gigs as I just love being around kids! Growing up with three younger siblings and 14 younger cousins, I've always been surrounded by kids, so now that I live away from family, I'm missing that burst of joy. I've been a certified babysitting for 12 years (CPR certified, and Red Cross babysitting certified), and worked as a summer nanny for three summers during college. As far as age experience, I'm very comfortable with kiddos of all ages, from infants to teenagers, I love it all! Hanging out and playing with the kids I watch is always a joy, however their safety is always my number one priority! I'm so excited to meet you and am grateful you took the time to read my bio :)
