Tracy $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Tracy , and I have my Associate’s degree in Liberal Arts. I’m offering child care and household services and plan to continue my education to earn a Bachelor’s degree in Education. I have three years of experience as a nanny and plenty of babysitting experience caring for children of different ages. My duties included school drop-offs and pick-ups, baths, meal prep, laundry, and fun outings to the park and other activities. Through caring for my younger siblings, I developed a strong passion for working with children. I especially love caring for babies and toddlers—it’s so rewarding to be part of their early growth and learning. I’ve worked as a Summer Youth Counselor and currently work as a Preschool Teacher Assistant. I’m CPR and First Aid certified and love planning creative activities like baking, drawing, and crafts. I’m caring, reliable, and dedicated to creating a safe, fun, and loving environment for every child.

Ellie $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Ellie and I am a senior at Fordham University majoring in psychology and English. I have been babysitting since I was 15 and would love to take care of your kids :)) In the past, I've made simple meals for kids, picked them up from school, walked them to parks, playdates, and restaurants, and have spent all day hanging out with them! I'm also happy to help organize your home or run errands. I (sadly) have no pets at school, but I have a dog at home and LOVE cats, so I'd be more than happy to meet and care for your pets too!

"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!"
