Hello everyone. My name is Camira and I’ve been around babies and animals my whole life. I’ve also worked in both a daycare and elementary school as a teachers aid. I love to connect with children through play, music, and laughter. I also enjoy being able to create safe and loving environments for them as well. I’m also a huge cat lover. I recently rescued two kittens, I’ve fostered two kittens, and grew up with my first cat Lucky. I’d love to add to your village and ease your mind during busy schedules.
Hi! I’m Priya and I’m 18. I don’t have any paid babysitting experience yet, but I really love being around babies, especially infants. I’m super gentle, patient, and I’m happy to help with things like feeding, diaper changes, or bath time. I’m also totally fine following whatever routine you already have. I’m just here to make things easier and keep your baby happy and comfortable. I’m available part time, and I’d love to help out if you need someone!
“Priya is very good with kids especially babies. She babysit a friend’s baby once and did a very good job. The baby was feed, cleaned and in a good mood.”
Hi - My name is Joyce and I am offering child care and senior services. I have over 15 years of experience in child care and have my CPR / AED certification. I have experience taking care of children with allergies. My responsibilities are making simple meals, light house cleaning, accompany parents to children appointments, plan and partake in our door activities and arts and craft. I have been a caretaker for my own parents in the past as well as for others and am comfortable with Senior Care.
A motivated and adaptable nursing student currently in my freshman year of college. My experience with younger siblings has equipped me with strong interpersonal skills and the ability to connect with people of all ages. Outside of academics, I enjoy expressing my creativity through hairstyling and experimenting in the kitchen, especially with baking. Known for my kind and outgoing nature, I am a team player with a positive attitude. While my school schedule varies, I am generally available in the evenings and on weekends. I'm seeking opportunities to apply my skills and contribute to a dynamic work environment.
Hi my name is Alyssa I'm currently a student at Hunter college looking for a way to gain more experience with kids as I am juggling between possible careers of an elementary school teacher or a small animal vet. I offer child care preferable toddler age to elementary school age. I enjoy babysitting kids I love to think of it as hanging out with them rather than being bossy. During the summer I work as a camp counselor, for 2 years I babysat a 5 year old girl afterschool, and I worked with a toddler for occasional weekends. I am familiar with traveling with children to any activities but I cannot drive as yet. I enjoy cartoons, being outside, drawing and painting. I love to think of myself as a fun and loving person. I am pet friendly as I do have two cats and hopefully a dog in the future. A secret plus if you do have a dog, I would love to walk your dog its enjoyable to me.

"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!"
Hillary S., parent
"We used Tania for a last minute emergency. She responded very quickly. My daughter seemed to enjoy herself. My son napped most of the time. I enjoyed how she kept me updated by text."
