Breana Kenilworth
$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Breana and I am currently working part-time as a nanny. I am looking for fulltime work at this time. I have plenty of years of experience in childcare as I have been babysitting since 15 years old! I’ve worked at a daycare facility for 18 months and had been a part-time nanny a little short of one year! Childcare is a passion for me! I have experience with infants, toddlers, young children, school-age children, pre-teens, and teens! I have experience as a household assistant as well, and can certainly run errands, food shop, meal prep/cook, and some light housekeeping or laundry! I also have experience as a dog walker and can help care for your dog as well. I am open to caring for cats or other pets as long as clear instructions or guidelines are set!

Jennifer Roselle Park
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hey there! I’m Jennifer — part-time nursing student, full-time fun-bringer, and your go-to babysitter with 5+ years of experience wrangling giggles, snacks, and sibling squabbles like a pro. I’ve worked with kids of all ages, but I especially love hanging out with those 6 and up! Babysitting isn’t just a job to me—it’s something I genuinely love. Helping kids learn, grow, and have fun is what got me started and what keeps me going. I’m calm, patient, creative, and known for being the “cool babysitter” (okay, maybe I said that—but still!). I’m happy looking after up to three kiddos at once, and I love activities that keep us all moving and thinking—like outdoor games, puzzles, board games, and crafts. I always stick to the rules you set, and I’ll keep you in the loop with updates however you prefer. Bottom line: I want to be someone you can trust and your kids are excited to see walk through the door. Let’s make babysitting awesome together!

Hi! My name is Rida, and I have over 5 years of babysitting experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. I’m a patient, responsible, and trustworthy caregiver who enjoys creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for every child. I love keeping children engaged with arts and crafts, reading, games, outdoor play, and homework help when needed. I’m also happy to prepare simple meals, assist with nap time, keep play areas tidy, and help with light household tasks related to the children. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident that their children are in good hands, and I always prioritize safety, kindness, and open communication. I look forward to supporting your family with dependable, loving care.

$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a college student with years of hands-on childcare experience. I’ve been babysitting for family and family friends since I was 9, and caring for kids has always come naturally to me. I’m patient, responsible, and very engaging. I love doing crafts, games, reading, outdoor play, and helping with homework. I’m comfortable with bedtime routines, preparing simple meals, and keeping the home tidy after activities. My goal is always to create a safe, fun, and positive environment so parents can feel completely at ease while they’re away. I’m especially great with toddlers and elementary-aged kids and I’m happy to care for multiple children at once. I’m available for evenings, weekends, and date nights in NYC and North Jersey, and I respond quickly to messages here.
