Hi— I’m Jayla, a child enthusiast who loves to find the creative side in everyday things. I studied biology in undergrad at Western Michigan University and decided to walk the untraditional path of pursuing my creative ideas as they come through. I love working with children as a way to relive the best experiences of my childhood. I come from a large family with many nieces and nephews and love to stay active indoors and out. I love to share the fun facts I’ve retained over the years and consider myself a fairy, finding the beauty in every day things but mostly nature. I am CPR certified and have been a babysitter and caregiver to families in New York, Michigan and Ohio throughout high school and college. I enjoy being around all animals and especially cats and dogs. I’ve worked with children, toddlers, and teenagers ages infant-14 but have more experience with infants- 3yo. I would love to connect with local families to tutor and babysit. Hope to hear from you soon!

Francesca $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi - I’m Francesca (I go by Chinaza though!) and I'm I’m an NYU Graduate, with a degree in Communications and a minor in Child and Adolescent Mental Health Studies! I am offering child care and household services. As an eldest daughter, I am very well versed in being a great babysitter and have been watching toddlers and kids (my little sister is currently 6 and my brother 18 so I am very well equipped for all that entails). My responsibilities have included commuting to/from school, anything artistic, and tutoring. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands. I’m not allergic to anything, and am happy to work with families with cats or dogs!

Booked by 1 family in Springfield Gardens, NY

Hi everyone! My name is Maren, I am a recent graduate from the Rhode Island School of Design where I received my MFA in illustration. Now I’ve relocated to Brooklyn with my fiance, and am starting a new chapter of life! I love kids, I taught dance to 15 elementary students for four years in high school, have two rambunctious cousins (7,11) at home who I take care of when I see them and grew up sitting from the age of 12. I love to bring activities, play, and just hear the crazy things kids say. I am a fantastic cook and quite the voice actor when it comes to picture books. Can’t wait to meet you!
