Hi, I’m Maria! NYC-based childcare provider with 10+ years of experience across the city. I specialize in calm, reliable evening care; bedtime routines, quiet nights in, and making sure parents actually enjoy their time out without worrying. Available for date nights and occasional sits: • Tuesday & Wednesday evenings • Some Thursday & Monday evenings • Weekend evenings by request (not same day) I prioritize safety, clear communication, and consistency. Families I work with know they can count on me. Let’s connect! 🌿

Hi! I'm Olivia. Thanks for visiting my profile. A little about me: I have 15 years of experience as both a full-time and part-time babysitter. I started babysitting in 2011, when I was a freshman at NYU. I'm now 33 and a freelance writer and editor. From 2011 to 2017 (before I left NYC temporarily for grad school), I babysat for 10-40 hours each week. My experience ranges from newborns to 14-year-olds, with every age in between. I especially enjoy sharing my love of books & reading. I love chatting with kids, answering their (hilarious/profound/thought-provoking) questions, and playing their favorite off-screen game. I was born in Manhattan, and I grew up in North and South Florida. Outside babysitting, I worked as a substitute teacher while attending grad school. From 2[removed], I was a full-time teacher at a private school in Florida, where I taught fourth grade reading, writing and science. I am skilled in social-emotional learning (SEL) and working with children with ASD (autism spectrum disorder), Levels I, I, and III; OCD; and ADHD. I am also skilled in helping kids cope with anxiety, anxious thinking, or anxiety-related behavior patterns. My hobbies include reading, spending time with my friends, and kayaking. I also have an M.F.A. in fiction writing, and I love talking to both kids and adults about books and writing! Some other helpful info: I am comfortable with pets and light housework/pet care. I am not comfortable babysitting children who are not feeling well/sick/contagious. Please let me know ahead of time if this becomes the case!

Hi, My name is Yulia! I moved to New York in 2020, shortly after graduating from the University of San Francisco with a B.A. in psychology and focus in child development. In high school, I began volunteering with a therapeutic horsemanship for children with cognitive, developmental, and learning disabilities. This is where I developed my passion for caring for children and studying human development. I have over fifteen years of experience, including babysitting for multiple families, nannying, completing my capstone practicum as a pre-school aid, and most recently working as a behavior technician for children on the Autism Spectrum. I currently work at a medical communications agency, and I have found myself with some extra time in the evenings and on the weekends. I find children to be very entertaining and energizing and genuinely enjoy getting to know each of their personalities! I especially love being a part of their learning journey and helping them navigate new challenges in school and in life! I look forward to meeting you and your kidos!

Hello all! My name is Emma, and I am a current doctorate student at Hofstra studying clinical psychology. I have been babysitting/nannying for over 10 years now and have a master’s in human development and education from Harvard’s graduate school of education. This past year I nannied and weekend sat for families with children ranging in age from 6 months to 12 years. I love taking kids to play outside at parks, doing crafts and coloring, and answering questions from inquisitive little ones. In addition, I am a certified lifeguard with three years of experience and have also taught swim lessons to 1-10 year olds for over five years. I currently teach private swim lessons in NYC. Contact me if it sounds like I'd be a good fit to your family, I look forward to hearing from you! References by request.

With over 15+ years of experience in child care, I bring a deep commitment to nurturing and educating children in both home and school environments.

In addition to child care, I also offer dependable pet care and home cleaning services. I'm comfortable with a variety of pets and take pride in providing gentle, reliable care tailored to their needs. When it comes to home cleaning, I focus on creating organized, tidy spaces so families can enjoy a clean and stress-free environment. I’m here to help make daily life a little easier—whether that means caring for your children, pets, or home—with professionalism and heart.
