Julia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Julia! I'm originally from Los Angeles and currently a sophomore at Indiana University studying Sport Marketing and Management with a minor in Business. I am highly organized, active, and responsible. During high school, I completed 300 hours of sports medicine volunteering, which instilled in me a strong sense of care, safety, and attention to detail. I offer dedicated child care, basic pet care, and general household assistance, including organizing and running errands. I have one year of formal babysitting experience, primarily working with active toddlers and school-aged children, ensuring they stay engaged and follow their daily routines safely.love keeping kids active! Because of my background playing tennis, I really enjoy getting kids outside for sports, games, and physical activities. I also love helping them with creative projects and reading. As a current college student, I am well-equipped to provide homework help and tutoring across various subjects. I am also great at teaching basic tennis skills to keep kids moving and having fun! While in high school, I completed 300 hours of sports medicine volunteering. This extensive experience gave me a strong foundation in health, safety, and first-aid principles, making me highly attentive to physical well-being. I also am CPR certified. I am an animal lover and am very comfortable interacting with and caring for standard household pets, including most breeds of dogs and cats, as I have dogs of my own. I am happy to handle neighborhood walks, manage feeding schedules, and provide plenty of energetic playtime. I am completely comfortable around large dogs and pets that shed.

Marisol $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I'm Marisol and I live on the Upper West Side in Manhattan and am available in all 5 boroughs. I am 31 years old and have extensive experience with working with children and babysitting. I have worked at a Preschool in Park Slope, Les Petits Bilingues De New York, and babysat for several families in Westchester, NY. I have baby sat for 6 years. I am very creative and believe that playing and engaging with the kids I babysit is very important. I'm not about just putting them in front of a screen and sitting on my phone. I'm big on making sure your kids will have fun and get to bed on time. My brother is on the spectrum so kindness is something I really value and I will be very kind to your kids and encourage them in any way I can. I can cook, clean, and make sure everyone gets to bed at their appropriate bed time. I look forward to working for you and your family:) I also love all animals (I'm randomly allergic to cows..but that shouldn't be a problem in NYC ;) and am great at cleaning.
