I love working with kids of all ages but specialize in school ages 5-14. I currently work in a middle school as a social worker and have been working in the mental health field for over 10 years. I am fun loving, caring, and a good match for kids of all ages and needs to support in keeping their day running as smooth as possible. I love theater, art, museums, and reading.
Hello, my name is Daija and I am a graduate, holding my degree in public health education and promotion. I love going to museums, and experiencing new things. I have previously worked at two preschools as an assistant teacher. I changed diapers, provided meals, played with the kids, and cleaned up after them. I am offering childcare services. I have been working with kids in the school system as well as babysitting, between the ages of two and middle school ages for eight years now. I also am able to work with pets; I have two cats and a dog of my own.
Hi! I have a lot of previous work with caregiving. I am a certified nursing assistant and I am cpr certified. I am currently a student in the city and have babysat for a family on the upper east side. I also have nieces and nephews from the ages 10-2 so I have a lot of experience with kids of all ages. I grew up in a big family and I would love to help yours!
Hi! My name is Sarah, I’m an LA-raised NYC dweller and lover of kids. As the oldest of 7 close cousins, I’ve been babysitting pretty much since I could hold a bottle. After moving to New York for school, I majored in Creative Writing and minored in Child and Adolescent Mental Health Studies. I have babysat for a few families in the city (some for several years) for kids ranging in age from 18 months to 12 years. I’m seasoned in putting restless toddlers to bed, whipping up fun arts and crafts and making excellent after school snacks!
Hi! My name is Michelle Rios, I’m 21 years old and currently a student at Fordham University in New York City. I was born in Boston and raised in Colombia, and I speak both English and Spanish fluently. I have been babysitting since high school and have experience caring for children ranging from infants who require diaper changes and feeding routines to children around 7 years old. I also have experience babysitting for families in NYC with children ages 1–7. In addition to babysitting, I have helped children with reading, writing, and schoolwork through tutoring and daycare-related activities. I genuinely love working with kids and creating a safe, caring, and engaging environment for them. I’m very patient, responsible, organized, and energetic, and I always aim to make children feel comfortable and supported. I also love cooking and baking, and I’m happy to help families however I can. Families would describe me as dependable, warm, and trustworthy, and I always treat every child with care and attention as if they were my own family.

"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!"
