Find an emergency babysitter in Jamaica, NY

Hi, I’m Chevelle and I’m here to offer my services as both a senior caregiver and child caregiver. As an aspiring physician I take joy in any opportunity given to connect with all types of people and caregiving has afforded me the opportunity to do so. I have years of relevant experience as a result of my time as a camp counselor as well as health Director along with my current role as a Behavior Technician to kids on the autism spectrum. I put safety first in all aspects but I’m still about having a good time and bonding with those under my care.

I'll be upfront: I'm not a full-time nanny, and that might be exactly why you'd want me. During the week, I am the project design lead for a large-scale waterfront project in Lower Manhattan. The work I do Monday through Friday demands serious multi-tasking, a high degree of responsibility, and clear communication under pressure. On weekends and possibly weeknights, I'm looking to take on nannying and babysitting work to pay down student debt and help support some elderly relatives. Despite a decent salary, I am in real need of a reliable long-term side hustle for the next few years, and childcare is something I will genuinely enjoy, not just endure. About me: I am comfortable with toddlers (1-3), young kids (4-8), and older kids (9-12+). I am happy to discuss infants on a case-by-case basis. My experience with very young babies is limited, and I won't oversell that to a new parent. I am the oldest of six siblings, the youngest being 12 years younger than I am. I bring "supportive older sister" energy. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I hold a BS in Biology and a master's degree in architecture. I am well-read and comfortable tutoring up to Calculus 1, and I can be a genuinely positive academic influence for a curious or academically inclined older child. Extra points if there's any interest in architecture. I don't have formal nanny references, but I am happy to provide strong professional references, including colleagues who know me well in the context of their own children. I do not smoke, am not a heavy drinker, and do not use drugs. I have a current driver's license, an impeccable driving record, and my own (admittedly slightly junky) car. I am a strong home cook, though not a chef. Happy to put together meals. Most of all, I am kind, extroverted, and hardworking. I know how to be a supportive presence in someone's home without overstepping. I will be on board with the way you choose to raise your children. I currently live in Williamsburg and am flexible on the neighborhood. Happy to sign an NDA. I am a strong fit for a family looking for weekend support, or for one that already has a full-time nanny and needs a reliable, professional substitute on days off or additional weekend coverage. I am motivated, I show up, and I'm seeking a long-term, regular arrangement. Happy to come by for a meet-and-greet if you think I could be a good fit for your family.

My name is Liz. I work live in Crown Heights. I work full time in the coffee industry. I have extensive experience caring for animals, cats/dogs/etc, and house sitting.

Hi! I’m a caring, responsible, and dependable sitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with children. I have experience working with kids in summer camps and also worked in an elementary school for more than a year: I also come from a family with many siblings, so I’m comfortable caring for and interacting with children of different ages. I’m patient, attentive, and always make sure kids feel comfortable and safe while in my care. I enjoy keeping them entertained with games, activities, movies, or whatever they enjoy, while also respecting each family’s routines and rules. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and happy to help make things a little easier for parents. I look forward to meeting you and your family!

Hello! My name is Sienna. I’m a recent graduate from the UPenn and am an oncology nurse here in NYC. I work with the adult population in the hospital, but I’ve always loved working with kids. I was a babysitter for 2 years in high school, and I also worked in a children’s hospital throughout my time in undergrad. I’m attentive, detail oriented, patient, and especially love being playful with kids. I'm comfortable with a variety of tasks, from arts and crafts to tutoring to accompanying kids to their extracurriculars. I’m also an avid cook and baker outside of my full time job and would be more than happy to bring those skills to your family as well! On top of that, I am CPR certified and happy to provide care if your child has any medical needs. I am allergic to cats but am happy to work with families with dogs!
