Find an emergency babysitter in Forest Hills, NY

Hello! My name is Micaela, I'm a 29 old year working in the arts, but am seeking more work in childcare. I’m a graduate from UC Berkeley where I studied English Literature and minored in Journalism. I'm very experienced with babysitting kids ranging from 1-10 years old, and have also worked with many toddlers while working as an assistant preschool teacher and was also a nanny to three kids ages 5-8 in Bed Stuy for two years. I currently reside in Ridgewood, Queens. Please let me know if you're interested and feel free to ask me any questions you might have. Hope to hear from you!

Hi guys, I have my BSN in nursing currently studying for my license. I have babysat for over 7 years personally but worked with kids for 9 years since I worked in summer camps. EXPERIENCES: I have worked in clinical settings with children such as pediatrics and NICU. But I also have experience with children with autism and ADHD for over 4 years. I have also worked with children that have diabetes. I understand that patience, caring and love is key. I want each child to feel safe and have the space to grow. I am CPR certified and have availability throughout the day. I am also willing to do last minute bookings! During the last couple of months we have all needed a break, feel free to message me for a date night or when you need some extra help while working. I love playing board games and building buildings with connective blocks! I currently have experience with a 3 year-old. I am accustom to picking up the child from school and taking her to activities. I love encouraging children to be who they want to be. For instance, if a child wants to be creative or sporty we will either spend the day painting or go an adventure through the park. I have also had experience working with a 5 year old who was very active. I can range with different ages of children because I have experience of working with children in an urban environment. The children were able to explore nature and it’s beauty. I try my best to enforce the safest environment possible with both the child and the parent. I have worked with parents usually for the long term but am looking for occasional gigs. A fun fact about me is that I have played and taught basketball, tennis and was a volunteer soccer assistant with the ages groups of 7-13. I also love to play board games and carry an Uno deck of cards for when I babysit with older kids. Will gladly do phone interviews and in person interviews. I also drive so don’t mind staying out late if you needed extra time! Feel free to message me for same day jobs! Thank you for your time

Hi families, My name is Sophia, I am a 25-year-old experienced nanny with a bachelor's degree in International Business. I am offering child care, pet care, senior care, and household services. During my time in college, I discovered I am a people person and love to be around kids. This made me volunteer as a teacher and start my journey working as a nanny even though I have accumulated some experience since I was even younger. I have always cared for children of all ages, from newborns to school-age kids. I am CPR certified with years of experience as a nanny. You can trust that your kids are going to be in good hands. I am very responsible, I always show up on time, and I have special care for kids. I hope I can be considered, and we can have a conversation. I would love to hear from you soon. Best regards, Sophia

Hello! My name is Shelley - I’m an experienced sitter/nanny and communications professional with a master’s in creative writing from Oxford. In my free time, I am a singer, performer, and avid fan of classic film. I've been involved in childcare from a very young age, including as a daytime nanny when I was working as an actress full-time, and an evening and weekends babysitter throughout college and beyond. I have experience with all ages, from infants to teens, and I have frequently worked with multiple children. I look forward to meeting you and your family!

I'm Marina, and I'm based in Brooklyn. I currently work part-time as the Development and Partnerships Director for a nonprofit providing education and mental health support to women and girls in Afghanistan, and I have about 20-25 hours a week available for a family in need of extra help. I have 19+ years of experience working with children, from newborns through high school, across nannying, daycare, summer camp, tutoring, and classroom teaching. I've cared for children in one-on-one and group settings, for families in Brooklyn, Los Angeles, and internationally, including families with high-profile backgrounds. Depending on what your family needs, my time could look like after-school pickup and care, homework support, household logistics, scheduling, organizing, errand running, cooking dinner, pet care, or simply being a consistent and trustworthy presence in your children's lives. For tutoring, I specialize in English, writing, and critical thought for all ages, and cover math, science, and social studies through elementary school. I've taught students from preschool through 12th grade and tutored refugee youth in Brooklyn, often without shared language. My teaching style is rooted in observation and adaptability. I learn how each child thinks, what makes them feel safe, and where they need room to grow. My professional background is in educational and curriculum development. I performed on Broadway through my teens, then shifted into nonprofit work and volunteer teaching. I lived and taught at a school in India for close to two years, worked at a summer camp for refugee youth, and have held roles spanning operations, client experience, and learning and development. All of it has made me someone who pays close attention and builds trust with the people I work with. I emphasize technology-free, creative, and confidence-building play. I think carefully about who each child is and what they specifically need, and I bring that same intentionality to everything from an afternoon activity to a homework session. Of course, I still love a fun movie night! :) I've held certifications in Infant and Pediatric First Aid and CPR and am happy to be re-certified. I have a perfect driving record, I'm conversational in Spanish, and I'm an animal lover through and through. References available upon request. I work best with families that lead with compassion, open-mindedness, and joy. If that sounds like your household, I'd love to connect!
