Dana $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Dana, and I’m seeking a long-term position as a nanny/childcare provider. For the right family, I’m open to longer hours or a live-in position, offering flexibility to meet your needs. With several years of experience as a teacher’s aide/assistant at a preschool and as a nanny for multiple families, I bring a wealth of expertise in childcare. I’m passionate about working with children because their energy is incredibly uplifting, and I thrive in the joyful, dynamic environment they create. My love for childcare has driven my career, and I’m excited to continue in a role where I can make a positive impact. In addition to childcare, I offer highly experienced pet care, ensuring your furry family members are well looked after. I’m happy to assist with light housekeeping duties, such as laundry, tidying up, and basic kitchen tasks (like dishwashing or organizing). Please note that light housekeeping does not include sweeping, mopping, scrubbing, or excessive vacuuming. I also provide light cooking, preparing a variety of dishes from simple snacks to family meals. As a personal assistant, I can handle tasks like picking up dry cleaning, pharmacy orders, food shopping, and driving children to and from activities, appointments, or school. I hold a valid driver’s license and drive a newly purchased SUV, offering reliable and convenient transportation. As a naturally neat, tidy, and organized person, I take pride in creating a clean and welcoming environment. In my spare time, I enjoy summer beach trips, attending sporting events, exploring, trying different restaurants, and watching sports. I’d love to connect with a family seeking a reliable, caring, and experienced nanny for a long-term partnership, whether part-time, full-time, or live-in. Feel free to reach out to discuss how I can support your family!

Jocelyn $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there - My name is Jocelyn and I graduated from UC Davis with a degree in Neurobiology & Behavior and currently work in Pharma Advertising. I was a caretaker for 2 elderly folks thru college and have really been caring for newborns, toddlers, and young kiddos since I was 15, and now looking forward to caring for your loved one(s)! I love staying active, so there’s no doubt I’ll have energy to keep up with energies of all ranges. I’ve cared for kids only a few months old to 11years old (I’m a great tutor/homework helper btw!) and have also cared for elderly folks, managing a range of medical conditions, including Parkinson’s, MS, and Dementia. I’m also rather flexible, if you need help driving the kids around, making meals, or any other general help, consider me your gal! If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to lmk. Looking forward to caring for your loved ones!

Kat $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Kat! I’m 28 years old and based in Manhattan. I was born and raised in Manhattan and currently live in the financial district. I have an undergraduate degree in Psychology from George Washington University and am a former Division I athlete. These experiences have shaped the way I care for children, with an emphasis on patience, empathy and consistency. I have been nannying throughout my life, with my most recent position lasting four years. I worked part-time, five days a week, with a family of three children ages 6, 8, and 10, and became a steady, trusted presence in their daily lives. From helping with homework and daily routines to offering emotional support and encouragement, I truly enjoyed being part of their growth. The family has since relocated, and I am now excited to find a new family where I can build a similar long-term connection! In addition to childcare, I’m a music producer and songwriter, which allows me to bring creativity, joy, and calm energy into the home. I’m someone who leads with kindness, listens closely, and values creating a safe, supportive, and loving environment where children feel seen and cared for. I am currently open to either a full-time or part-time nanny position and would love the opportunity to become a dependable and caring support for your family.

Sophie $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Sophie, and by day I work as an advocate counselor at a High School in Manhattan, which I have been doing for three years (I love it)! In my job, clear communication, trust, and honesty are integral. I work to keep kids engaged, on track, motivated, and to build their confidence. With that comes lots of chatting and working to make connections. I have been babysitting since I was in High School, and I have taken care of kids ages 2 months to 8 years old. Most of my babysitting has been with babies sustaining long-term relationships with families, and watching these babies grow into toddlers. I’m an avid sports fan, I play the New York Times games daily, and I’m always willing to try something new. My friends and family would describe me as outgoing, loyal, honest, and having a strong sense of humor! Clear communication, established boundaries, and fun are at the core of my work. I look forward to connecting, and thank you for entrusting me with your littles!

Jasmine 4 reviews
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in College Point, NY

Hi! My name is Jasmine and I am offering child care services. I’m patient, trustworthy, reliable, caring, communicative, kind & energetic! Currently working in education and I have been working in schools and with children (toddlers and elementary to high school aged kids) for the past 11 years. Along with babysitting, I am able help out with homework, clean, cook and run any errands. I also grew up playing sports so if you’re kiddo needs any basketball lessons in particular, I would love to help! I am able to interact and engage with children by reading books, watching movies, going outdoors (parks & playgrounds, museums, libraries, or any other activity of your choice), playing games at home, and engaging in more educational activities as well. I require some type of video call before the start date to ensure safety on all ends. I am fully vaccinated and boosted as well. I have no allergies to pets and welcome all furry friends with open arms! I can assure that your children will be safe in my care. Thank you😊

Jasmine cared for three of our children for three hours and handled three separate pickups smoothly. She was energetic, positive, and an excellent communicator. As a school psychologist, she made me feel confident that she would be capable of handling challenging behavior if it arose. She was a joy to have around, and I will definitely hire her again.
