My name is Leila I serve part time in the Army National Guard I’m offering child care from any age and household services. Since I was 15 I’ve worked with children of all ages, children with special needs, and the children’s aid society as well as babysit younger relatives when I was 13. I am extremely flexible with any requests, I am able to cook, clean, drive, and open to learning anything else needed of me.

Tasia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is T’Asia, and I am a caring, patient, and dependable childcare provider. I am also a mother to two young children—a 3-year-old boy and a 1-year-old girl—which has given me hands-on experience with infants and toddlers and a deep understanding of children’s daily needs, routines, and safety. I provide a nurturing and structured environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and encouraged to learn through play. I am experienced with feeding, diapering, nap schedules, potty training support, and engaging children in age-appropriate activities such as reading, music, and outdoor play. As a parent, I understand how important trust and communication are. I take pride in being attentive, reliable, and respectful of each family’s preferences and routines. Safety is always my top priority, and I remain calm and patient in all situations. I am happy to help with light childcare-related tasks, including meal prep for children and tidying play areas. I look forward to working with a family who values loving, dependable care and open communication. References are available upon request.

$30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Walden, NY

Hi! I'm currently a college student majoring in psychology with aspirations for nursing school! At present, I have no idea exactly what I would like to specialize in, but I have a feeling it will ultimately be in pediatrics. I've spent most of my life working with children, be it as a general babysitter, a nanny, a peer mentor, a tutor, a lifeguard, or a camp counselor at a sleep away camp for several years. I love getting to know kids and helping them foster their interests and creativity, as well as teaching them to think out of the box! In my free time I love to go on hikes, play guitar, and most importantly I love to teach myself new things! I'm looking forward to working with you and your family.

“Very helpful and great attitude and pleasant demeanor”
