hi! I'm an experienced babysitter, tutor, and pet sitter. I have years of experience working with families in the neighborhood and love hanging out with kids. I really value staying present in the moment with children and make sure to listen to their needs.
Hi there! I'm Valerie, a graduate student and experienced sitter in South Slope. I'm currently pursuing my Master's in Art History at Hunter College. This past spring, I graduated from Wesleyan University with a B.A. in Art History (and with High Honors, induction into Phi Beta Kappa, and Departmental Awards). I was born and raised in New York. I'm available for occasional work during the week, including evening babysitting, dog sitting, house sitting, and help with cleaning and home organization. I have experience working with toddlers and school-aged children. I am 92NY certified for babysitting. I also have plenty of experience with dog and cat sitting. I grew up immersed in the arts -- especially visual art and theater -- and am a classically trained pianist. I'm happy to help kids practice piano or assist with homework, particularly in humanities-related subjects. Happy to answer any questions!
Hi, I’m Melissa! I am a preschool teacher, and I have two nephews (ages 4 and 5) who keep me on my toes. I love museums, Chuck E. Cheese, or just hanging out doing crafts and reading stories. I’m easygoing and great with routines. I want kids to feel happy and at ease while we hang out.
Hi, my name is Lola and I feel tremendous respect for children as they are so free and spontaneous; great teachers :) .. my experience is based on caring for my own son (now 21 years old); my niece and nephews (now 18-21 years old). I was a stay at home mom most of the time so I lived the experience by raising children and also being the recurring host for all their friends as well :). I helped them with homework and study for all school years, cooked and fed them; took care of all their needs and extra curricular activities; they are now in College and also hold each one high degrees in different fields like: black belt on MMA; college soccer; professional soccer; electric guitar player; artist (drawer/painter). I am very cautious and pay attention to detail; follow instructions; communicate well and in a timely manner. I also love music, dancing, playing, walking, going to the park; reading, baking :), blowing bubbles; help with school work. I am fluent in English and Spanish; I have a bachelors degree in Economics and I am also a Certified Integrative Nutrition Health Coach. I also own a dog myself :) his name is Cristiano and he is very happy and spoiled. Please fell free to ask about any questions or concerns that you may have :)
Hi! I’m a marketing professional, actress, and lifelong creative who genuinely loves spending time with kids. I have a 3-year-old niece and 5-year-old nephew who are two of my favorite people, and I love being part of their adventures—whether that’s playing pretend, creating art projects, reading stories, or spending time outdoors. I’m energetic, imaginative, patient, and responsible, and I enjoy helping children feel safe, confident, and engaged. My background in creative fields has made me a natural storyteller and problem-solver, and I’m comfortable keeping up with active kids while also creating calm, structured routines when needed. Families describe me as warm, dependable, and easy to communicate with. Whether you need occasional date-night coverage, after-school help, or a reliable sitter for regular care, I’d love the opportunity to support your family.

"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!"
