Adeline $18 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Adeline, and I am a college student from Minnesota! I recently graduated high school in 2023, and I am in my second year of attending college in New York! Fun fact: I am a film student! I have 8 years of babysitting experience, and about 4 years of pet sitting experience. I have babysat several different families in Minnesota, with the kids ages ranging from 2 years to 13 years old. Apart from babysitting, I have also worked as student director for 7 youth musical productions! I have also pet sit for several different families in Minnesota, pets ages ranging from 6 months to 14 years old, both cats and dogs! I love doing karaoke, playing board games, going to parks, taking dogs for walks, exploring museums, and watching movies! Babysitting and dog sitting are the best because I can do all my favorite things while working! But, I am always open to learn new fun activities, games and hobbies your kids or pets might be interested in!

Lillie $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Lillie, a college student here in the city! I am offering many services from pet care and childcare to cleaning and household tasks! I have previously worked multiple customer service jobs which have required communicating with people of all ages. One of these jobs was at a bakery where my responsibilities also included a lot of cleaning and organizing. I have younger cousins and neighbors who I have babysat from time to time, and have spent the past two summers caring for my elderly grandmother. This care (for either/and children and the elderly) has included reading and writing, word and board games, and cooking and cleaning. As far as pets go, I have had dogs, cats, and rabbits my whole life, as well as petsit for friends and family.

Alli $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a marketing professional, actress, and lifelong creative who genuinely loves spending time with kids. I have a 3-year-old niece and 5-year-old nephew who are two of my favorite people, and I love being part of their adventures—whether that’s playing pretend, creating art projects, reading stories, or spending time outdoors. I’m energetic, imaginative, patient, and responsible, and I enjoy helping children feel safe, confident, and engaged. My background in creative fields has made me a natural storyteller and problem-solver, and I’m comfortable keeping up with active kids while also creating calm, structured routines when needed. Families describe me as warm, dependable, and easy to communicate with. Whether you need occasional date-night coverage, after-school help, or a reliable sitter for regular care, I’d love the opportunity to support your family.

I am a fourth year college student studying at Stevens Tech and live in Jersey City. I have babysat toddlers for a couple of years now and last summer I worked at a summer camp with kids ranging from 4-7 years old. In the past I have brought kids to the park, done crafts, tutored/help with homework. I am available for babysitting as well as pet care. I used to have two cats and I know the responsibilities for taking care of cats!

Jennifer $25 per hour for 1 child

As an empty nester who raised three children of my own, I bring a level of 'mom intuition' and calm authority that only comes with decades of experience. I specialize in providing high-end, reliable care for families who need a seasoned professional they can trust immediately. My background is unique: I’ve supervised a world-renowned kids' club, taught a wide range of subjects, and have extensive experience working with foster youth. This means I am exceptionally adaptable, patient, and capable of managing any situation—from high-energy play to quiet routines—with ease. I am available for day-by-day, occasional, and last-minute bookings. Whether it’s a date night or backup care during a busy day, my goal is to provide your children with an engaging, safe, and positive environment so you can have total peace of mind while you're away. I am comfortable with all ages and look forward to meeting your family! I graduated from NYU and majored in psychology.
