Hi! My name is Erna and I am currently a nursing student in my fourth year at CUNY Hunter College. I have lived in Brooklyn for my entire life and know the different neighborhoods very well. I have 4 younger siblings, two of them being twins which definitely plays a role in my experience and passion for taking care of children. I enjoy babysitting and being around children, having worked with families of all ages for over 5-6 years since I was 14. I have babysat newborns, toddlers, and older children, and even for families with 2-3 children and pets. I also handles household tasks like cleaning, cooking, pick ups, and errands. I enjoy helping, teaching, and having fun with children. Some things about me is that I am fluent in Serbo-Croatian, I love traveling, trying new foods, I have a cat named Milo, and I like playing sports. I would describe myself as energetic and outgoing.
“Thank you so much Erna. My kiddos adored you. ”
Hello! My name is Solangel, and I’m a college student currently looking for one-time or part-time work during winter break. I have experience working with children from infancy through middle school. Most of my experience is with after-school programs, primarily with elementary school students, and I’ve also helped teach younger children both English and Spanish. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out. Thank you!
Hi there! I graduated from Tufts University with a major in Political Science and have worked in foreign policy on Capitol Hill for several years before moving into contract specialization here in NYC. I spent four summers as a preschool teacher working with children ages 1 to 5 and spent two years working with fourth graders, in addition to regular babysitting, and I absolutely love working with kids! I also have a year's experience as a full-time professional nanny for a single family with a toddler. Please don't hesitate to reach out to me if you have any questions about availability or would like to learn more about me as a babysitter. I am also happy to provide additional references upon request from my full-time childcare jobs, if you would like them in addition to my reviews listed here on the website. I look forward to hearing from you!

Hello! Thanks for looking at my profile! In my childcare experience, I’ve worked as a camp counselor, nanny, Mother’s helper and director of summer camp. I’ve cared for children from 2 weeks up to 12 years. I enjoy incorporating my knowledge and experience with art into my work with children because I believe it helps them to express their creativity. I attended the University of Oregon and graduated with a dual degree in Latin American Studies and Theater. Thanks for your consideration.

"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!"
