Jocelyn $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Jocelyn! I’m currently a college student at Baruch College. My services include child care, dog and pet care. My experience with taking care of kids go way back to when I was taking care of younger relatives since I was around 10. I’m currently a chaperone for 2 kids on Saturdays and watching them do their online tutoring. I can practically do everything you need for child care! I mainly do pickup from school to home or to an afterschool activity but no at home sitting. I am also a math tutor so I can do tutoring at the library with your child if needed! As for pet experience, I’ve had the pleasure of taking care of family pets (mostly dogs) and making sure they’re fed on time, walking them, and making sure they’re happy overall!

Hennesy $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m currently an Occupational Therapy (OT) student with a passion for helping children learn, grow, and thrive. I worked in a school supporting children with special needs, which has given me valuable experience creating safe, engaging, and supportive environments while adapting to each child’s unique needs and personality. I’m patient, dependable, and creative, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids. I love incorporating arts and crafts, imaginative play, outdoor activities, and age-appropriate learning into the time we spend together. My background in OT has also strengthened my understanding of child development, sensory needs, and positive communication. Outside of work and school, I love art and animals, and I’m always happy to help with pet care if needed. I’m also comfortable assisting with light household tasks, such as tidying up after activities, preparing simple meals and snacks, and helping keep your home organized while caring for your children. My goal is to provide families with reliable, compassionate care while making sure children feel safe, supported, and have fun. I look forward to getting to know your family!

$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in New Rochelle, NY

Hi I'm Daché! I'm from the Bronx and attend at Lehman College. I offer child care and have limited availability while school is in session. What qualifies me as a great caregiver for children is that I have years of experience working in various settings (schools, camps, daycare programs) with children between the ages of 6mo-4 years. I also have personality traits that are congruent with providing great care like patience, compassion, attentiveness, and creativity. I am not currently certified in CPR but I am willing to redo it. I have also completed over 40 hours of trainings related to caring for children 0-5 years old and am happy to provide proof and references for past jobs. I am comfortable working with both dogs and cats in the home, and I can also perform light cleaning, run errands, meal prep for the child/children, etc.

"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!"
