Yelis $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Yelis. I’m currently in Dental Hygiene school and I’m looking for a part-time babysitting position. I have experience caring for a newborn from the time she was born until she was a little over a year old, due to the family relocating. I’ve also had experience working with toddlers. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and love keeping them engaged with fun activities like arts and crafts, playing, and age-appropriate activities. I am also CPR certified. I’m reliable, responsible, patient, and caring. I’m happy to help with light household chores, errands, and anything else that makes life a little easier for the family!

Hi! My name is Amina, and I’m a reliable, patient babysitter with hands-on experience in daycare, kindergarten, and after-school programs here in Brooklyn. I’ve cared for children of different ages, helping with daily routines, playtime, meals, homework, and bedtime.

In addition to babysitting, I’ve worked as an after-school instructor for 5th graders at EXCEL Inc. and as a tutor in English, Russian, and math, so I enjoy keeping kids engaged through fun, educational activities. I speak English, Russian, and Kazakh, and I’m comfortable working with families from diverse backgrounds. Parents describe me as calm, attentive, and trustworthy, and I always make sure children feel safe, supported, and cared for. I’d love to help your family ,whether for a date night, regular care, or extra support when needed.
