Hi! I’m Paulina, a caring, responsible, and energetic caregiver from Ecuador.

I also have experience caring for pets, including walking dogs and providing daily care. I’m organized, patient, reliable, and enjoy planning creative and educational activities. I love spending time outdoors, doing arts and crafts, reading stories, playing soccer and swimming, and encouraging healthy routines.

Paloma $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m an 18-year-old college freshman at Sarah Lawrence College studying Art History and Psychology. I’ve been babysitting for families throughout high school, and even before that, I regularly helped out neighbors and family friends. I grew up in a close-knit community in California, so I’ve always been surrounded by little ones and genuinely love being around kids. I’m excited to bring that same energy and experience to new families here in New York!

Bernarda $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, My name is Bernarda and I am 25 years old. I am currently working at a part time legal assistant position while also building my career in the wine industry. I have been working with kids since the age of 15, where I started coaching tennis to a 10 and under group with The New York Junior Tennis League. My experience working with kids is not something I learned at my job. Growing up at home my mom was a babysitter, and I always helped her take care of the children, from toddlers to kids in elementary school. I grew up with these children in my house and I learned to love them, help them with homework, and even take them out on small trips with my mother. Ever since I have helped my mom with babysitting , children have always been part of my life. Eventually,I was able to continue to work with children teaching them and making tennis a fun game for them to learn. I love to read, play tennis, and dance as well. I also speak Spanish and I would gladly be able to teach your son or daughter. I promise to take care of your child like they were my own. Make each day with me fun and exciting !

"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!"
