I am a recent college graduate who loves working with children, spending time outdoors, and supporting families in my community! I have been nannying consistently throughout college and beyond, and I genuinely enjoy building relationships with children and helping create a safe, fun, and supportive environment for them. I have experience caring for children of various ages, tutoring, and helping with homework. I am happy to provide academic support as needed, and I am almost fluent in Spanish! Special Needs Experience: I have extensive experience working with children with special needs and feel very confident supporting children with a variety of abilities and challenges. I have worked as an aquatic therapist and taught swim lessons to children with various disabilities. In high school, I also served as a social coach, helping students with homework, social skills, and job skills. During college, I volunteered with a program serving children experiencing homelessness through an after-school program, where I helped with homework, served dinner, and organized fun activities. Swimming & Safety: I have five years of lifeguarding experience, hold a CPR certification, and have taught swim lessons to children ranging from one to eighteen years old. I am passionate about water safety and feel comfortable working with children of different ages and skill levels. Pet Care: I have loved dogs my entire life and volunteered at a dog shelter for many years. I am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and breeds, including both timid and energetic dogs. I am also comfortable caring for cats and providing overnight pet sitting. Household Help & Cleaning: I am happy to help with household chores and cleaning as needed. I gained valuable cleaning and organizational experience while working in a women's locker room at a fitness club, where I was responsible for maintaining a clean and welcoming environment. I also worked at Starbucks, where I enjoyed customer support tasks such as cleaning tables, washing dishes, and restocking supplies. I am comfortable taking on a variety of household tasks when provided with the appropriate supplies and instructions. Overall, I am a caring, dependable, and adaptable person who loves helping families wherever I can. I would love the opportunity to support your family, whether that means caring for your children, helping with homework, assisting around the house, or looking after your pets!

Hi! I’m Anaelle, a 22-year-old French girl living in New York. I recently worked as an au pair in NYC, caring for children of different ages, including toddlers.

Amina $15 per hour for 1 child

Hiii ✨ My name is Mina, and I’m a 21-year-old caregiver with several years of experience working with children of all ages. I’m a former preschool teacher and currently working toward becoming a Behavior Technician (RBT), where I’m learning new skills to support children’s growth, communication, and overall development. I’m passionate about creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment while also encouraging learning through everyday activities. Whether it’s helping with routines, engaging in play, or supporting emotional needs, I always aim to make children feel comfortable and cared for. As for my availability, I’m available in the mornings Monday through Friday, and I’m fully available all day on Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and provide reliable, thoughtful care! —>> 🐾 Client & Safety Policy First-Time Walks: For large, shy, reactive, or nervous dogs, a meet-and-greet with the owner present is required before solo walks begin. Leash & Handling Policy: If a dog cannot be safely leashed or shows defensive behavior (growling, snapping, lunging, repeated close-proximity barking), I reserve the right to cancel the session for safety reasons. The full session rate will still apply, as the time slot and travel have been reserved. Health & Behavioral Disclosure: Clients must disclose if a dog is in heat, has a history of leash resistance, or has shown defensive behavior toward new handlers. Undisclosed conditions that prevent safe handling may result in cancellation with full charge. I am fully background-checked, patient, reliable, nurturing, and very accommodating to each family’s needs. I love creating a safe, fun, and engaging environment where children can feel comfortable, supported, and happy. If you live a distance away and need urgent care, I kindly ask that transportation be covered via Lyft or Uber. I do have mild cat allergies, but I don’t mind being around pets — I may just be sneezing a bit! 😅 Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions, concerns, or would like to get to know me better. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and help care for your little ones!

Hi! My name is Amelia, I’m 22 years old, and was born and raised in Brooklyn, NY. I recently graduated from the University of Vermont, where I majored in Studio Art and minored in Art History. I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I love working with kids and have babysitting experience through the Babysitters Guild, where I worked for three summers in a row, as well as experience working at a sleepaway camp. I enjoy doing arts and crafts, playing games, spending time outside, reading, and creating a fun and comfortable environment for kids. I’m also a huge animal lover and have a cat and dog of my own. I’m happy to help with dog walking, feeding, playtime, fresh water, litter box care, and general pet sitting. I’m comfortable with different animals and always make sure to follow their routines and any specific instructions from their owners. I’m also happy to help around the house with tidying, dishes, laundry, organizing, taking out the trash, and errands. I’m dependable, patient, and communicative, and I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your kids, pets, and home!

"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!"
