Hello! I'm a writing professor at CUNY during the academic year, available over the summer to take thoughtful and attentive care of your children. I love working with kids for the same reasons I love teaching writing: creating a compassionate and structured environment for young people to follow their interests and curiosities with joy. I approach caregiving with energy and humor, and outside of work, I love cooking new recipes, exercising, and taking improv comedy classes.

Carley 5 reviews
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Carley, and I am a recent master's graduate in art therapy. My education has given me a strong understanding of children’s unique needs, including how temperament and developmental stages (including creative development!) can shape the way a child experiences the world. I would love to bring along age-appropriate art materials to nurture your child’s self-expression and budding curiosities! My favorite part of caregiving is engaging with children’s imagination, along with the limitless questions and humor that often arise. I also enjoy approaching childcare with creative problem-solving. On multiple occasions, I have successfully distracted a child from a screen by drawing their favorite character and inviting them to color it. I have experience caring for children from infancy through the pre-teen years. I have lived in NYC for a decade and am also comfortable commuting with children on public transportation. My approach is collaborative — I want to work within your parenting style while taking the time to understand your child’s individual personality and inner world. I bring a warm presence, a playful spirit, and a genuine enjoyment of following children’s interests and seeing where their curiosity takes them.

“I’ve known Carley for more than 10 years, since we met while studying abroad, and I’m so happy to recommend her as a caregiver. Over the years, I’ve always known her to be thoughtful, responsible, warm, and incredibly creative. While I haven’t personally seen Carley in a caregiving role, I know she has extensive experience working with children of all ages and has put a great deal of thought and care into building her skills in this area, including through her master’s degree in art therapy. One thing I know for sure is that a child in Carley’s care would never be bored—she is incredibly creative and would be the kind of sitter to come up with fun activities, make art together, and really engage with a child’s imagination and interests. Carley is someone I’ve trusted and valued as a friend for more than a decade, and I would feel completely comfortable recommending her to families looking for a kind, responsible, and genuinely fun caregiver.”

Booked by 2 families in Rego Park, NY

Hi! I’m a responsible 20-year-old sitter in the Bronx with 4 years of babysitting experience. I’ve cared for children of various ages and am comfortable managing multiple kids while keeping things organized, safe, and fun. I can assist with meal prep, light household chores, and homework help — especially in ELA and Social Studies. I enjoy helping kids build confidence in reading, writing, and understanding what they’re learning. Beyond that I have plenty experience with both cats and dogs. I’m reliable, patient, and always focused on creating a positive and supportive environment for your family. Everyone needs a break sometimes and I hope to be able to provide that for you!

“Zoe was a delight! She is so caring, polite, reliable, punctual and communicative while she cared for my son. My son loved her!! I Would definetely book again. ”

"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!"
