Hi! My name is Willow and I am a recent grad from NYU. I have some babysitting experience for other families in high school, but most of my experience is with my younger brother from the ages of 0-4. Responsibilities include running errands, outdoor time, crafting, cooking, cleaning the house, and bedtime. I am flexible, warm and patient. Right now I am working part time at Brooklinen, where much of my focus is on making sure people feel welcome. I love meeting new people, and work great one-on-one. Outside of customer service, my job is to maintain a clean and comfortable space. I am calm, flexible, and comfortable balancing interaction with organizational tasks. I also have dog and cat sitting experience. I have had pets my whole life- I love animals and am very comfortable with their care. I have experience with nannying for senior cats over an extended period, and am comfortable with feeding, changing litter, giving medication and playing. With my own dogs, I am comfortable walking them daily, and taking care of hygiene such as teeth brushing and hair brushing.
Hi! I’m Ashitaka, a CPR-certified preschool teacher and children’s gymnastics instructor with over 2 years of experience supporting little ones as they grow, learn, and play. I specialize in working with toddlers and early childhood age groups, and I bring a warm, high-energy, and creative approach to caregiving. As a Broadway actor and performer, I love incorporating music, movement, and storytelling into everyday moments — from dance breaks to dramatic storytime. I’m comfortable with meal times, routines, transitions, and sensory play, and I thrive in environments where kids feel both safe and celebrated. Helping children feel confident, curious, and cared for is at the heart of what I do. I’d love to be part of a home where joy and structure go hand in hand!

"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!"
