Hi, looking for a morning shift! Super flexible and early mornings are great. Here to help you and your family out :) Experienced with 5-10 year olds, making simple meals. I am on time and reliable , feel free to reach out.
Hi! My name is Cindy, and I am a dedicated and nurturing sitter with over 8 years of experience caring for children of various ages. I have a passion for creating a safe and engaging environment where kids can thrive while having fun. My experience ranges from babysitting toddlers to helping with homework for school-age children. I'm excited to bring my enthusiasm and care to your family!
I am one of six and have been babysitting since I could watch my little siblings and cousins. I love kids and am now an aunt to a two-year-old. I spent the past year and a half as a nanny for a one-year-old. I am a graduate of the University of Michigan and am currently based in Clinton Hill. As a nanny, I also help keep the house tidy and help out with errands. I love to create fun games and engaging activities. I have received training in CPR and first aid.
I am Cornelia , an experienced nanny with great references! I have had the opportunity to care for kids from newborns to school age for the past 16 years, and it has been a pleasure. My skills has sharpened as the years went by, and it has taught me a lot about myself. I love caring for kids because it affords me the opportunity to help contribute towards our next generation, as the first three years of a child’s life is the most crucial phase developmentally.
Hi, I’m Meeka! I just moved to new york and I’m currently in college and will be graduating this December with a degree in Finance. I’ve been babysitting since I was 14, and for the past 4 years I’ve gained nannying experience with children from infancy through age 12. I’ve also handled a few overnight stays, so I’m comfortable with longer care when needed. I love building fun, safe, and nurturing environments for kids, and I’m patient and adaptable to each child’s needs. Alongside childcare, I’m also great with pets—I have two dogs of my own and absolutely love cats, so furry family members are always a bonus for me! I look forward to supporting families with reliable care, whether it’s for a few hours or something more regular.

"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!"
Hillary S., parent
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
